A Trio from Bordeaux
Donated by Carol and Ed Dunleavy
1995 Chateau Duhart-Milon Rothschild Pauillac (WS: 90)
"Essence of blackberry and chocolate. Full-bodied and extremely velvety. Caressing and gorgeous to taste. Duhart started making excellent wines in this vintage…" "The wine's bouquet offers aromas of ripe berry fruit intermixed with minerals, toasty oak, and spice. Medium-bodied, with fine extract, it is a finesse-styled Pauillac…"
1995 Chateau d'Armailhac Pauillac (WS: 92)
"Gorgeous aromas of crushed currant, flowers and Indian spice. Full-bodied, with fine tannins…" Robert Parkers says "The 1995 is possibly the finest D'Armailhac I have yet tasted. …the deep ruby/purple-colored wine possesses low acidity, plenty of sweet tannin, and, in both its aromatics and flavors, gobs of ripe cassis fruit are nicely framed by the judicious use of toasty oak. Flavorful, round, generous, and hedonistic, this is a crowd-pleaser…"
1995 Chateau Clos Fourtet St. Emilion (WS: 90)
"Absolutely delicious. Impressive chocolate and spice aromas. Medium- to full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and lots of chocolate and spice on the finish." Jancis Robinson describes the 1995 Clos Fourtet with the following words: "Dense ruby. Slightly restrained but very gorgeous and supple on the nose. Lovely balance - very ripe at the start and then beautiful texture and lift."
