March 26, 2024 - Canon vs. Duffau-Lagarrosse 2009-2020 tasted blind (Fribourg): Medium garnet. Ripe strawberries with some plum as well. Bright acidity, rich body and a little drying finish as well. As so often the 2005 St.Emilions suffer from dry tannins.

December 13, 2023 - 내가 와인을 시작하게 된 회귀를 생각해보면 아르헨티나의 말벡이었다.
그러나 와인을 본격적으로 사랑하게 된 계기는 보르도의 올빈이었다.
오늘 내가 왜 보르도의 오래된 와인들을 좋아하는지 다시금 느끼게 되었다.
노즈에서는 바닐라와 오크향이 꽤나 지배적이었다.
과실향도 약간 있긴 있었는데 희미하다보니 색깔을 말하기는 꽤나 어려웠다.
70% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc 구성이다보니 그래도 조금 세밀한 와인이 아니었나 싶다.
팔렛에서는 아주 부드러운 타닌과 말그대로 아름대로 산도가 느껴졌다.
신기한 건 흔히 말하는 잔당감이라는 느낌을 매우 싫어하는데 이 와인에서 느껴지는 건 고급스러운 단맛에 가까웠다.
맛에서도 과실향이 느껴지긴 하는데 이 역시 색깔을 말하긴 어려웠다.
모임에서 마셨던 와인인데 지인께서는 "꿀"과 "꽃"이라는 키워드를 말씀하셨다.
동감할만한 표현인게 고급스러운 단맛이 굴이라는 표현이 딱 들어맞았다.
또한, 향이 아무래도 따자마자 느껴질 정도니 이걸 꽃이 아니면 무엇이라고 표현할까? -

July 1, 2023 - Bordeaux Wimps June 2023 - 1945 (La Trompette): The baby of the flight! Colour - garnet, just the faintest hint of bricking. Very well put together wine - shiny, even glossy, this has the bones to go a long time I think. Its bulk and presence made it a tad inharmonious in the context of the flight, but this is not the fault of the wine. I'd love to taste this again, and I think when it gets to the age of the 82 it will be even better.

February 3, 2023 - Rather roasted with a coffee element to the fruit. There’s some maturity with cedar spice and tobacco elements trying to come out but I found this heavy and lacking freshness. Tannins still well behind the concentrated fruit, with some astringency, but does has a nice velvety texture.
I’ll likely hold my remaining bottles but don’t care for the flavor profile at this stage and hope for the best.2 people found this helpful Comments (4) -

December 13, 2022 - Popped and poured. Medium ruby color. Really nice nose of black currant, plum, black cherry, some savory herbs, a bit of cedar and baking spice. Similar flavors on the palate with ripe but still fresh black fruit aromas coming through along with a bit of forest floor and some toasted oak. Still very primary at this stage which is very impressive for a 17 year old wine. Great structure. Long life ahead. Wish I had another bottle in the cellar to track trajectory.
