Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 19, 2008 - Saturday Group Kicks Off with Haut Brion: This is unpleasantly tight for me. It reminds me of what I thought of the 1995 when it was first released. And, like that one, I am not sure there's enough stuffing to outlive the wine's structure. Sure, it seems plenty fruity now, but it's missing some baby fat and I suspect this one will become quite angular with time. Drink it very soon or bury it and say a short prayer. Based on all of the other reviews (professional and otherwise) it looks like I'm definitely the odd man out. Maybe we had an off bottle -- maybe it's closed? Of course, everyone was going gaga over the 1995 when it first came out as well...
