'05 Cht Camensac, Cinqieme Cru

by Richard Fadeley OLD » Mon Jul 22, 2013 9:44 pm

I own a case of this 5th growth, 05 Camensac, Haut Medoc, bought at a discounted price and opened my second bottle last Friday. The first bottle (opened a year ago) seemed closed and not giving much. On Friday it was a little more open, but not what you look for in a classed Bdx. Still enjoyable, and continued to improve over the next day. Back into the fridge and opened tonight (Mon.) to find the wine I've been looking for. Deep, brooding, rich, almost black wine, 91 pts. and very rewarding. I guess I will wait another year to open another bottle, but this is clearly headed for a happy ending.
