Sunday, October 6, 2019 - Vinetasters: 2005 Bordeaux 2nd Growths (Skokie, IL): Served double blind. Dense and earthy on the nose with a bit of black cherry. The palate shows a good amount of acidity and balance, and while this is fairly ripe, it’s actually pretty well-balanced until you get to the finish, where a slight bit of roastedness shows up. It’s a fairly big wine; not overdone, but also not particularly elegant. I’m thinking something along the lines of Cos or Montrose? My 5th, group's 6th.
