Introduction
all bottles are being tasted blind and only after guesses by the attendants - the wine is revealed.
Flight 1 (4 notes)
Red
1995 Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape
92 points
blind tasting;
light red-brown color, brown rim;
wonderful secondary & tertiary aromas of leather & spices;
tannic, balanced, still very enjoyable inspite that the wine is over its peak; long after-taste, a real pleasure.

Red
2002 Mas Martinet Priorat Clos Martinet
91 points
blind tasting;
red-purple color;
wonderful leathery smoky aroma of a mature wine, more Riojan than Priorat!;
full-bodied, tannic, harmonious, long after-taste - a good surprise.

Red
2003 Feudi di San Gregorio Taurasi
flawed
strong stinky smell that didn't leave the wine; also unpleasant taste; seems a clear case of TCA.
Red
1996 Château Calon-Ségur
90 points
Blind tasting; bottle was opened just before the tasting;
light red-brown color with brown rim;
Strong green herbs aroma that softened a bit during 30 min - this wine require a pre-opening of few hours; very tannic & green in taste; a classical Saint Estephe.

Closing
Enjoyable wines that require pre-opening.
