Tasting Notes...

Chateau Wittgenstein Vintage 1918: Tight and dense. Showing potential, but only hinting at its profound depth.
Chateau Wittgenstein Vintage 1925: Hibernated and closed but with occasional violent outburst of bitter notes.
Chateau Wittgenstein Vintage 1932: Reductive in style. Long fruit, no real finish.
Chateau Wittgenstein Vintage 1945: More open and oxidative in style. Distinct notes, easy to enumerate. Complexity and majestic finish.
