Tuesday, May 5, 2020 - This is not nearly the mess that the last 2009 St. Emilion I tried (Godeau) was, but it is hardly recognizable as Bordeaux. Pours dark purple with a ripe nose of blueberry and sage. A big, oaky modern style, with smokey mocha/espresso flavors and blackberry fruit, finishing with a wall of tannins. I made some poor decisions in my 2009 Bordeaux purchases, and the more I revisit these wines 10 year later, the more I realize that this is not my style of vintage.
