2005 Château d'Arcins (France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Haut-Médoc) 9/15/2008

jnastynebr 80

Decanted and consumed over three hours. Smokey cedar and dust on a forward nose with a one dimensional sweet berry entry. Simple mid-palate, lacking acidity with a yeasty, skunky component that put this one firmly in the average category. Lacking the firm tannins needed for aging. Boring.
