Saturday, May 15, 2021 - Lyon 2021 Birthday Bash; 5/14/2021-5/15/2021 (Bear Creek Woodward/Lyon Den): The crown jewel of the evening. My buddy's birth year wine and 3rd bordeaux of the evening. Contender for wine of the vintage with the Latour. Well this did not disappoint and I was so relieved. 'Sexy' nose we agreed, with perfect fruit and integration. Forest floor, cigar box. Sweet glycerin on the palate. Maybe some violet as reviewers suggest? Beautiful garnet color. OMG, I am in heaven. Usually these things don't live up to the hype, but I am so very glad this did. Happy Birthday Grinner! No tag backs!
