TN: white and red Bordeaux, plus Malbec

Dec 29, 2017 0 Replies

Went to some friends for a dinner of bulgogi, tofu, avocado, rice, bok choy , & glazed sweet potato, followed by a spirited game of Chinese checkers


2014 Ch. L’Enclos (Bordeaux Blanc) Clean, unoaked, grapefruit and grass, tastes mostly SB. B/B-


2000 Ch. Grand Corbin Despagne Dark berry, a little cocoa and vanilla, just a hint of tannin remaining, fi ne but really hasn't added much interest since it's youth, B


2015 Alamos Malbec Quite sweet, some rather coarse tannin, low acid. C+

Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C drinkable. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a p arty where it was only choice.Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivi ty, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.
