Monday, January 6, 2014 - DRC Tasting Group: Bordeaux Night (Wild Ginger, Seattle, WA): Tasted blind. Subtle, aged nose, with a touch of brett. Definitely showing its age on the body, but it was still nice and light, with a soft elegance and great mouthfeel. Light tannins, and nice balance. Perfect provenance on the bottle.
