Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 31, 2010 - This is the best sub-$100 '05 Bordeaux around. It needs to be decanted for at least 8 hours to drink, but then it really provides a great drinking pleasure. Tannins are big, but silky. The fruit is dark blackberry, licorice, and plums with leather and charcoal around the edges. Long smooth finish, no heat. Our host opened another bottle after this one was kicked and was shut-down, just like the bottle I opened before the decanting. This will only get better.
