The Best Red Wine I Ever Drank
Friday, March 2nd, 2007OK sorry guys but it is a claret. Most people probably don’t consider Bordeaux reds to offer remarkable value for money, especially given the en primeur prices quoted for the 2005 vintage which made my eyes water. However its probably fair to say that if you consider quality independent of price, then Bordeaux would be near the top of most wine enthusiasts’ lists.
This is why, despite the exorbitant prices I broke the bank to reserve a few bottles of 2005. Something I may post about in 2015 (if I am still alive) when they are ready for drinking…
Anyway, back to the wine in question which I opened on our balcony in the summer of 2006 with my good mate Tony the self styled Lord of St Helens and his charming wife Jeanette.
Stumble It!
