Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 16, 2011 - California vs. Europe (Bordeaux blends) BLIND TASTING: Very deep nose of tobacco and cedar, with some grilled fruit and leather. On the palate, perfectly integrated, smooth, some cedar, earth, fruits and minerals. Savory wine, great acidity and long finish. For me this was clearly the best wine of the tasting. My nose was slightly congested so I couldn't get all the nuances, but this was excellent medium bodied, nicely aged wine and one of the best bordeaux I had so far. I would like to try another bottle with fully opened nostrils (the bottle came from C.M.'s cellar). Guessed Montrose, this tasted clearly different from all other wines, which were in a more new world style.
