well my Decanter thudded through the letter box and I was like a kid waiting for exam results, what about my 2005's?, now tasted in bottle.
55 wines tatsed 25 5 stars, 10 4 stars, 18 three stars and one single star.
"1982 was great, but 2005 is THE vintage in my opinion-the best since 1961."
"this is the finest Decanter tasting ever,"
The one underlying theme from the tasting is was value in the more minor wines, some blew off the first growths.
Here are the bargain 5 stars wines.
La Lagune Langoa Cos Labory Lafon Rochet Duhart Milon Haut Bages Liberal Haut Batailley Lynch Moussas Pedesclaux Ferriere Marquis de Terme
and what about the first growths, but remember they often show poorly at this stage Mouton 5 stars Margaux 5 stars Latour 4 stars Lafite 3 stars
I have Langoa Lagune and Lafon Rochet, I now only have to live long enough to enjoy them.
So you Claret drinkers, get buying the cheapos and enjoy.
