WTN: Recent wines

1998 Colombaio Di Cencio Il Futuro
Deep red color but with signs of age. The nose is closed at first, but there's a lot of plums and herbs there. When tasting it seems to simple at first but gained complexity and weight with time. Mature, but still with "fresh" fruit and herbs. Soft with little tannin and only some acidity left, perhaps a bit to oaky but nice with food. In fact on day 2, the oak was just to much and I didn't finish the bottle.

2004 Château Suduiraut "S" de Suduiraut (half bottle)

The nose actually reminded me of champagne, with it's freshnes and honeysuckle scent, almost a little waxy. Very elegant, however I feel the palate is not up to the challenge. It feels to thin and harsh. Maybe it needs some time.

1988 Domaine Rougeot Pommard (half bottle)
Orange brown color, doesn't look so good. I'm however pleasantly surprised, there is some life left. Dark sugar, balsamicovinegar without the acid(ok maybe some). The taste is flat short and doesn't really taste anytning. But it actually got better the second day, more floral and nice to drink.
The play was a great success, but the audience was a disaster
