Thursday, April 2, 2009 - Mouton Madness: SDR's BWE Thursday Night Dinner (Equinox Restaurant, Washington DC): Dark red to rim, though lighting was dim. Really rich forward nose of layered ripe fruit, saddle leather funk (but clean funk), meat and minerals. Very full bodied, mouth coating ripe fruit, richer than expected for a St. Estephe, a little linear at first despite being decanted 3 hours earlier, it continues to open over the coursre of the evening to become much more complex. Long smooth finish. Still young, but fabulous now, this will go for decades.
