Very high acidity. Tightly wound. Not exihibiting a balanced finish.
Way too tart for my liking.

Awesome stuff! Nutty and lively with nice yeasty citrus AND tropical aromas.
Very funky on the nose and the palate. So cool. Wet rocks right after a rainstorm. Drenched.
Shroomyness. Some nice structure exhibited as well. Such an awesome effort. Bravo!

Guess this is a Kosher wine. Not impressed. Basic red fruit. One dimensional.
Wine seriously lacked compared to all others at the tasting.

Lovely sweet spice. Gorgeous licorice on the nose and palate.
Loads of ripe dark red fruit. Accessible and drinking well though showing potential for cellaring.

Lush notes of red spicy berries with nice cinnamon aromas.

One of the best wines in terms of QPR of the evening. Really enjoyed this ripe yet accessible wine.
Totally Old World in style, both Jill and I thought this was fantastic -- especially for about forty bucks.

BEEFY aromas jumping out of the glass. Such a unique experience.
The palate is equally smoky with lots of roasted meat qualities.
Sweet ass stuff. Can't wait to see how it evolves over the next few years so I decided to pick up a bottle at the tasting.

Fantastic wine. Well extracted dark fruit. Blackberries, dark cherries.
Licorice, dried plums, cigar box and tar.
One of the top wines of the evening.

Still has some years under its belt.

Deep gold in color.
Roasted nuts and yellow apples dipped in dark honey.

Great opulent nose. Deep dark rich fruit, vanilla and chocolate.
Palate doesn't match. Maybe this is in a dumb phase.
If the palate would hold up to the nose this would be some serious stuff.

Binny's South Loop October Bordeaux Wine Tasting.
Awesome. One of the top five wines. Fabulous structure and depth.
Loads of dark fruit and gravel. Scorched earth, licorice, mocha and lots of deep dried purple flowers.
The length is impressive. Awesome tannins structure with laser like acidity. Beautiful now yet this will ripen over the next decade or two.
Purchased a bottle at the tasting to cellar.

This wine's overall character was different from the other's - especially those on the ticket table.
This wine's color was more of a deep ruby than the more opaque others.
The wine showed lighter berries with very intriguing spice.
Lighter in style but still awesome depth and complexity.
The finish went on and on for at least 45 seconds though it was as elegant a Bordeaux as I've ever sampled.

Rich dark chocolate and dark fruit.
Very Old World in style.
Tremendous effort. Absolutely in love with Pavie on my first experience.

Beautiful and rich with tremendous potential.
Still just a baby.

Absolutely mind blowing. I completely understand the hype.
Tasting this was a truly memorable experience.
The focus and structure. Depth and complexity. So much going on.
Dark berries, chocolate, earth, dirt. Coffee, dark purple flowers.
The viscosity of the wine is somewhat sappy. The nose is absolutely flying out of the glass.
The finish lasted for almost a minute. This is the best French wine I've had to date.
I am in love. Speechless.

Day bright golden in color.
Beautiful yellow apple and lightly roasted nuts on the nose.
Balanced palate. Very bright and lively.
Gorgeous. Glad I have two half bottles still on their way.

The best white wine I have ever tasted. Absolutely mind blowing.
So much concentration with such length. I was speechless.
Lush rich and viscous in the glass. Almost molasses like but lighter in color.
Aromas leaping out of the glass. Lemon zest. Insanely bright lemon zest everywhere. Fresh grass, blue cheese and petrol.
So much SUN in this wine. It drinks like liquid gold. Such balance. Maple syrup notes on the nose and palate.
75 second finish. I'm sold. I don't see how it can get better than D 'Yquem in terms of Sauternes...possibly dessert wines all together.
