I really think that sometimes, we dont allow wine to talk. Last night was one of those nights. A young bottle of wine has so much to say and it needs a long time to say it. Maybe 5 hours...When you put it in a room with 5 other talkers (wines), and ask all of them to tell you their life story at the same time within 90 minutes, you have a bunch of wines talking over each other and the loudest one gets heard and the rest is mostly lost. Last night this wine was muted under the noise of some obnoxiously louder wines with allot of lipstick and gum stuck between their teeth, but she spoke her most beautiful words on the way out. She utterly murmured "Boghdeauxxxx" in the most beautiful French accent and then, she left the room. I still have the image of her beautifully full, plump, puckered lips in my head and I cant get it out. HOLD_

So much potential, jammy and rich when first opened, but got more wound up and the tannin increased over the course of two hours. It just needs more time to resolve and soften up. But is a beautiful wine and will be beautiful if decanted long enough.
On the second day it finally lost the oakiness and the plush fruit came through. Incredibly powerful wine that can age for a long time

French >$150 theme: Easily identifiable as a ‘09/10 Bordeaux, but thought right bank because of the international nature which made sense given the producer. Not a fan of the plummy, overly ripe fruit here.

Tightly wound on opening. Even after a 3.5 decant and lots of time in the glass over the course of a long dinner, it still was holding back. Lots of compliments on the '99 Nuits-St.-Georges we were serving at the same dinner, but no one said a word about the bordeaux. I couldn't bring myself to give it more than a 90 that evening. Fortunately, a good 9 oz were left and, man, did it evolve overnight. Floral and earth on the nose. Tartness on the palate had completely resolved. Tannins were just as I like them - velvety but still quite present. A really lovely bottle. Holding on to my others for at least 5 years, as this clearly has more development ahead.

Amazing showing for an amazing wine. Upon opening, the bouquet fills the room. No need to decant for my taste. The nose and palate show smooth and consistent notes of charcoal, flowers, lead pencil and dark fruit. A bit more power than elegance. However, I don’t want to split hairs because the wine has both. Better on the second day as well!
