Thursday, October 29, 2015 - Annual Comparative Bordeaux Tasting (2000/2005) (Chicago, IL): Quite dense on the nose, with a good bit of earth, which also shows on the palate. Very dense on the palate, but it seems like density for density's sake. Sightly sweet, which comes at the expense of acidic freshness.
