Thursday, October 29, 2015 - Annual Comparative Bordeaux Tasting (2000/2005) (Chicago, IL): Easily more mineral and elegant than the Haut-Brion. Less sweet, more austere, and a bit more leather on the palate. This was made in a much more restrained style, and shows a lot more precision and clarity than the big hulking behemoth from next door. While I admired the 2000 HB for its density, I'd give a slight edge to the 2000 LMHB for its elegance.
