    bue 10 ans trop tard!
    Du jus de feuille et de champignons
    avec un arrière gout de terre...prévisible.
    Mince et aqueux en finale...on passe!

    December 6, 2017 - From Art's cellar. Birthday dinner for a younger colleague's wife who was born in 1984. She wanted a Bordeaux from that year. That vintage's reputation made me wary of bringing this bottle, but I need not have been. According to RMP, the wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Decanted for about 1 hour. On initial opening, some Bordeaux-funk, which was gone by the time the wine was drunk. Wine was clear; no sediment to speak of. Very little bricking on the rim; otherwise garnet from the bowl outwards. Nose was cedar over black currants, and in the mouth, similar, but there were fines herbs accompanying the cedar. A few tannins still clung to life and the wine was well-balanced. The wine's herbaceousness was more reminiscent of a 1970's-era Mayacamus than a Pauillac. Long finish. This bottle would easily have lasted another 4 or 5 years. Stunning result from this iffy vintage!
