Decided to open one of my Maison Ilan bottles. My last 2010 MSD Les Chaffots. Very light colored wine. Nose lovely aromatic red fruit with spices. Taste medium bodied, red fruit, minerals, medium acidity, good length. Elegant wine. Would be better with some more body, but this is a very good drink.
That’s nice to hear that there are some positive notes coming out of these wines for the folks that took the risk…I never did. Glad you’re enjoying the wine
Hi Bill, I understand your concerns. I have over 900 tasting notes on Cellartracker (I am Burgaddict over there, you can check them out). I like to follow WB and because of all the Maison Ilan discussions I have posted some tasting notes on WB. I have bought and personally collected 2009, 2010 and 2011 Ilan wines, I stopped buying after 2011 because it was difficult to retrieve the wines. I have drunk 18 Ilan bottles up till now, only one was syrupy and bad, all others were good to excellent.
