Community Tasting Note

  December 2, 2004 - I had a delightful bottle of the 1992 Boudots last year, so I had high hopes for this one. As expected, the '91 was much less mature - really it was quite youthful (deep ruby red) - but it is drinking beautifully now and we certainly did not waste a bottle by opening it tonight. Certainly some secondary nuances have emerged, and the whole wine was marvellously complex, with hints of mint, pine needles, cinnamon, black earth, dried rose petals, and other fleeting flavors that I can no longer remember. I found it to be satisfyingly deep and rich, yet elegant and well-balanced, with a mesmerizingly long finish. I think this will hit its peak in a few more years, but it gave great pleasure tonight.
