Wednesday, December 19, 2012 - Bordeaux 2009: the Golden Vintage (Cellier The Wine Loft): Dark ruby color with faint purple highlights it offers a beautiful earthy and sweet nose, quite expressive with notes black fruit, tar, caramel, cedar tobacco, toast and leather.Combines sweetness concentration and freshness. Oak shows a little but is not intruding. Palate however is surprisignly light on its feet compared to the nose, medium bodied with elegant texture, ripe tannins with just a faint astringency barely felt. Fruit is lean and sweet at the same time and medium+ acidity lends remarkable freshness. Finish is long with tobacco, ink, dark fruit and cedar. 20 years of life ahead of it but perfectly drinkable and enjoyable even now.
