2005 Château Belair

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Sunday, November 29, 2015 - A terrific bottle of wine, could restore my interest in Bordeaux. Now fully mature, and certainly in its drinking window, the wine exuded notes of dark and red stone fruits (i.e., more plum than berry), with flashes of tobacco, earth, a certain spiciness (from stems?), and well integrated, mature tannins.

I note that others believe this wine has a long life ahead of it. I would counsel better to drink now, or in the coming year, before the remaining fruit dissipates.

Rated 2 on a scale of -1 to 3.
