Château Godard Bellevue 2005
Sunday, December 14th, 2008I have long argued that a rising tide floats all boats, but I forgot about the leaky ones which sink paying no regard to ebb or flow.
2005 was the tsunami of tidal years in Bordeaux and almost every wine I have tasted from that year has been superb. So I was looking forward to receiving a case of Côtes de Bordeaux from the Wine Society which promised a tour of some less well known communes.
My first sample, Château Godard Bellevue 2005 Côtes de Francs, stood up to the “unknown” moniker.
