Vintage 2006 - combines power with elegance. Velvety taste. Evolution in colour, very rich nose with chocolate, cedar, red fruit. #pauillac

Youthful acid overtaken by stark tannins and underdeveloped progression.

Another Weekly Wine Committee, this time hosted by @Weston Eidson and @Benjamin Keator ! They knocked it out of the park with French wines! As always, all wines are tasted blind. Another Bordeaux wine that exhibited classic notes, but this one was juicer than the first. Cranberries, plums and herbs.

Too young. No surprise there. Tannins are firm and tertiary notes starting to come around. Dark and earthy.

Dense, dark, brooding. Still very young; needed some time to breathe but opened beautifully. Despite its high cost, you can taste the breeding.

Kiawah. Red fruit focus, earthy. Smooth and velvety tannins. Medium light bodied. Very easy mellow drinking. Enjoyable.

A bit light on the nose, some black fruit, graphite, leather. A nice mouthfeel. A bit creamy. Tannins still holding strong and slightly overpowering the fruit, which is black currant, black raspberry. New leather, a bit of fig. Hard to see this one aging better than it is now, fruit is soft, tannins will soften but don’t see the structure getting better. Nevertheless, enjoyable. Edit: Coravined this and tries again over the next two night. I’ll increase my rating.

Celebrated NYE early. Decanted for a couple hours. Faint raspberries. Some earthy notes developing. Integrates nicely. Had with beef Wellington v 2.0
