Community Tasting Note

Sunday, February 21, 2010 - Definitive Bordeaux (Mirabelle Restaurant Austin, Texas): Leather, old world, books on the nose--guess if this is california or bordeaux! This was somewhere in the middle of the flight, not the favorite but a nice wine. It had good structure, adicity, and balance but was not compelling, It had a classic pauillac palate of tobacco, cedar box, graphite, minerals, but the tannins were hard and it seemed to need age. It was solid, some said delicate, and might improve with age. Tasted along side two top Californians, it lacked flavor but gave structure and balance.
