Sunday, January 24, 2016 - Blind Tasting at Roy's: Blind at Roy's: Musty earth, thought it was corked for a moment but it's just damn musty with turned earth dried leaves and walnut. Dried cherry and cassis still discernable and slight green pepper/weedy aspect, showing off it's 1997 origins. Bit darker core than the others, and medium plus everything in the structure made this an easy guess for right bank Bordeaux. Guessed 1994. Did not guess left bank b/c did not have the tobacco/clove/black leather character I get in cab based Bordeaux, and because acidity/overall structure was a bit attenuated.
