flawed
Thursday, November 7, 2013 - WCC St. Julien (Cafe Capriccio, Albany, NY): [Double-decanted at 2:30pm.] Leather and blackberry nose. Abrasive on the finish. Should be showing better than this.

I have had the pleasure of drinking all three wines recently and the GL, HANDS DOWN, blows them away. 10 Years ago, the Poyferre was untouchable. If you get a chance, try the GL again, don't give up on it :-)
