Wednesday, February 7, 2024 - Blind, 3 hour decant......
Medium garnet in the glass.....nose of confectioner's sugar and red fruit. Palate of tart red fruit, decidely Bdx feeling. I guessed younger by a decade. Still, the '00 vintage is probably my personally least appealing of all I've had. Looking back, I preferred this one about 7 years ago, less so 4 years ago and at best about the same now. Maybe the 3 hour decant wasn't in its sweet spot? The '03 Poyferre is still my fav......
Much thanks to Ken K for supplying all the wines for this blind event and putting it all together for our group of 10. Very instructive and enlightening.
