Friday, February 1, 2008 - Hart Davis Hart Wine Co Comparative Bordeaux Tasting Vintages 1995 & 1996 (Newberry Library, Chicago IL): My first comment was after reading the notes from Parker (provided at the tasting to accompany the wines) that I was so impressed as to how Parker really nails Bordeaux tasting notes. This was a great wine with what I term a classic Leoville Barton nose. Color: Dark red Smell: Worn leather, saddle, wood notes of cedar and spice box. Taste: nice medium body. Drinks really nice. I have to say that in the end, I actually did like the 1996 slightly better.
