Tuesday, November 8, 2022 - Arvi Bordeaux 2020 Arrivage (Dolder Grand, Zurich): Bordeaux 2020 Arrivage tasting. Key observations: 1/ Tannins were generally soft and well-integrated, but still left room for structure, 2/ fruit generally ripe and well-defined, no over-extraction, 3/ all appellation were showing great, but if I had to pick out then it would be Paulliac, 4/ top wines were Petit Village (completely unexpected, 97) and Lynch Bages (96).

Tasting note:
An compelling nose with dried and candid fruit but also more fresh elements, a herbal touch and chamomile. While this was a nice juxtaposition to the more candid profile of Suduiraut, the palate was similarly viscous with lots of honey aroma.
