Monday, December 12, 2016 - The Rotating Dinners, I.7: 2005 Bordeaux Blends (Chicago, IL): Served double-blind (but it was known this was a 2005 Bordeaux blend). Heavy, black, and oaky, with quite a bit of ripe fruit. The palate and nose also showed a slight bit of leather, but the story of the day here was the massive quantities of black fruit. To balance it, there were some moderate acids, but not quite enough. I guessed that this was some sort of modernist Napa cabernet.
