Le Bilboquet Holiday Dinner (Atlanta, GA): Tasted at Somm Guild of ATL Holiday dinner @ Le Bilboquet. Paired with Steak and Frites. My first 2002 Bordeaux and was pleasantly surprised! Drank alongside four other Napa cabs / Bordeaux blends. Brad - heavypourwine.com

Lovely purple colour, good legs, archetypal Pauillac nose. Notes of coffee. Graphite and leather, good fruit, rounded and silky on the palate. Good solid Pauillac. Crunchy tannins fairly well integrated. Has some years to go and may improve further. Very nice....

Initial nose of ground coffee then vanilla. Dark purple. Strong legs. Smooth mouth feel. Blueberries. Smooth - tannins well integrated. A little austere. Probably won't get much better from now.

Agree with Shoebox that this is gentle but remarkably complete, and showing even some potential upside.
