Friday, October 16, 2009 - Tasting of Rhône and some blinds by the DRC-club (Brugweg - Velp): Served blind from Arnoud's cellar. Most tasters confused it for cabernet franc, but I'm happy to say I said from the beginning (like Bob) this just had to be cabernet sauvignon. I even guessed Margaux, but to be honest I meant the village, not the château, because I found it lacking that bit of class I consider to be typical for Château Margaux. But it turned out to be the grand seigneur after all. Very enjoyable, but not the greatness I'm used to from my favorite Bordeaux.
