Saturday, October 11, 2008 - Bordeaux Today (2005s & A Lone 2004) (Wine Exchange - Orange, CA): Deep raspberry core with a light purple rim. The aromas are very attractive with specific notes of currant, boysenberry, and crushed stones. The same attractive fruit character spills over onto the palate giving this wine a charming approachability. There are ample sweet tannins which give this wine solid structure. I also enjoyed the complexity provided by the baking spice finish. A number of quality conscious producers in the Haut-Médoc have offered extremely strong wines in this vintage and for me this is definitely one of them.
