Bordeaux Blind Tasting, 2003
These tasting notes are from a blind tasting of Bordeaux. All of those who attended brought one or two bottles, and as a result there was a fascinating, eclectic range of wine ready for tasting. The bottles ranged from thirty year old Côtes de Bourg to top of the class 2000 Bordeaux.
Although the wines were tasted blind in fairly random order the tasting notes here are organised according to appellation. The only wine tasted but not discussed below was a generic 1995 Pauillac from Château Lafite-Rothschild (pictured), presented in magnum no less, which had been give to one attendee as a gift. Sadly it was found to be corked. (16/10/03)
