Saturday, July 23, 2011 - 1995 Bordeaux Retrospect: Alcohol :: 13%
The nose is tight, but quite enticing with sweet dark fruits core surrounded by layered of mineral, green herb, earth and leather. Good purity and relatively soft with tannin well integrated with spicy finish that lingered, quite sweet too. A wine with good purity, balance and polished that is already approachable, but this lack of the depth and breadth and certainly doesn’t has the class from a 1st growth. Most disappointed wine tonight alongside with the La Mission for everyone. I hope this is a weak bottle.
