Monday, April 8, 2013 - La Commanderie de Bordeaux: 1988 Horizontal (Boneta Restaurant - Vancouver, BC): Fantastic nose, showing generous amounts of cedar and spicy black pepper, along with some leather, black cherry, asphalt, earth, graphite, and mint. A bit lighter than the nose promised on the palate, exhibiting plenty of black pepper, graphite, and cedar, as well as a hint of leafy mint. Softer acid than the Palmer and Lynch Bages, with a medium- length finish ending on notes of rich black cherry and leafy mint. Great balance here with tons of lead pencil combined with rich dark fruits. My favorite of the flight. Very good+
