Graves Red Bordeaux Blend
Graves, Bordeaux, FranceMost youthful bottle of this wine I have had to date. Pungent aromas of Cassis , mineral , violets , spice , wet tobacco . Density and power tastes more like the 89! than 79.

A runner up in the flight. Seductive on the char/smokey and savory side, with compact, juicy fruit that filled the palate. Showing well.

From a split. Tired but good leather and tar and violets.

Birth Year Bottle! An aromatic powerhouse with aromas of truffle, cedar, cigar box & violets. The finish is a little on the lean side, although that is probably more a feature of the vintage. The '89 was a pretty tough act to follow.

A delight that opened up over beautifully over a few hours. A knock out nose and had a lovely bit of freshness on the back end.
