Decanted 2 hours.  Deep, dark cherries and saddle leather on the nose.  Cherries continued on the palate with notes of tar, vanilla, and spices.  On first taste, the tannins were still a bit grippy, but continued to develop.  After 3 hours, they had mellowed very nicely.  An excellent bargain Bordeaux.

Agreed...finally finished off our '96's of this wine - was very sad to see the run end.

How's it hanging in Tampa Jugs? Miss you with DC CRU events. Hope all goes well.

Tampa is wonderful.  The summer is the same as it was up there.  The winter is orders of magnitude better.

And coming here opened an opportunity to come out of retirement to own a part of a gourmet market and wine shop (www.butcherblocktampa.com).  La vita e bella!

Here's to drinking more H-B Averous!
