Friday, January 21, 2011 - Again, LVC delivers. This is now officially the house Bordeaux.
Very ripe berries, plum, and spices leap from the glass. These flavors are partnered with tart cherry, wonderful texture, and surprisingly gripping tannins. A little more time? Wine was tasted after a 30 minute decant. As usual, very fine cloudy sediment left in the bottle after decant. There was also a fair amount of chunks in there as well. I'll let my brother-in-law have the last glass from the bottle....
