2004: Ten Years On – A Decade in Bottle
Join us for another Bordeaux fine wine tasting as we taste a lovely charming vintage, 2004. This vintage is definitely a classic vintage and in the Médoc the wines are comparable with 1988 or 1996 in style. The crop was very generous and so there is plenty of wine about which, hopefully, which have kept prices at a sensible level. In addition the wines have matured now over ten years and are expressing a charming level of complexity through development. Come and join in the tasting to see which Bordeaux 2004 you should be drinking now or cellaring for a few more years.
