I’d like to interrupt – very briefly, I promise – the alternating deification and excoriation of bordeaux with this observation: this wine is a snappy little number. Maybe a little slutty, but hey, who am I to judge?
I return you now to your 100 Years War against the Bordelais.
How many points? I have a bottle of this, and I need to know whether I overpaid or got a bargain.
Seriously, I have only one bottle of this. Would you open it this year, or wait?
This is not a wine to cherish for years. Chris. I think it will be a pleasure for a number of years, but there is no shame in drinking it now.
