Pure Pauillac pleasure - mid-weight, which is perfect.. graphite and blackcurrant.. so ready to drink... zero point holding this any more. Not necessarily complex or layered, but so tasty and absolutely correct.

Good, but showing excessive ageing
V biscuity, beyond where all the other great 2004s are.

    8/14/2016 10:13:00 AM - indeed, very perfect.
    Bollinger just didn't nail it like everyone else in 2004.. well, that remains my opinion anyhow

2003 Krug Champagne Vintage Brut

Champagne Blend more

7/20/2015 - Elvis1969 Does not like this wine: 85 points

I have tasted around 20 different vintages of Krug and this is probably the worst vintage wine Krug ever released. Strange on the nose, bitter finish. This is not even good.

Tasted next to Krug 1996, 1998 and 2000. All others were great but not the 2003.

Just bought a case at auction today.
Massive, powerful, marvelous flavors with a longlasting finish. Sorry I don't have anything more helpful to others, but I was enjoying a nice meal with my ladyfriend and not paying too much attention to details of the wine!

2000 Château Malescot St. Exupéry

Mature nose. Not my favourite style and a worryingly green streak throughout. Searing tannins. I don't see this improving.

2008 Fattoria Poggio di Sotto Rosso di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

Three Vintages of Poggio di Sotto Rosso di Montalcino (Dig Wines, San Francisco): Medium red. Nice mix of lighter red fruit and soil in a light package. No sense of underripeness or dilution. I wouldn't pay $70 for it, but a good effort for a lackluster vintage.

    2/3/2013 11:38:00 AM - 2008 is far from a lacklustre vintage in Montalcino, my friend. In fact it is joyous.
