2000 Ch Bernadotte

[winoweenie]

Decided to open this while I watched our Cardinals at SF. Went to bed before the game was over content in the fact we were finally going to start a new season out winners....WRONG. Woke up this morn to discover the same-ole'-same-ole'. Well at least I had pleasure drinking this extremely well-made deli-ci-osis bottle. Deep ruby verging on purple. Nose has expanded and the wine has fleshed out in general. The brite red fruits have added a liberal amount of blackberries and the tannins have receded but still needs another 2-3. This bottle will reward the extra time. Only my 2nd bottle from this box and I'm already kicking myself for not buying more. Think this will repeat itself many times over as I dig into the 2-grand vintage. Kick this hummer up to a solid 91. WW
