Community Tasting Note

Saturday, December 22, 2007 - My last bottle from a case that my Dad originally bought on release in North Carolina, then brought back to Florida. Perhaps the finest bottle from a memorable case, this bottle was almost a perfect Bordeaux: a sublime combination of those exotic baking spices, that cedar-cigar box essence so characteristic of this wine, amazingly fresh fruit, vibrant acidity, and sublime tannins. As great as it was, with more time it will develop even more complexity. I actually preferred this to the 1982, which had lost too much of its fruit for me, and was too much just earth and leather at this point. This was the WOTN until the 1993 Haut Brion Blanc came out. Oh my God in Heaven, why have I been drinking reds all these years?!?
