2005 Chateau Mylord Bordeaux


Were you there when they opened Chateau Mylord?
Were you there with they sniffed and sipped Chateau Mylord?

Ooooh ooooh oh oh, sometimes, it causes me

To tremble...tremble....tremble....

Were you they drank Chateau Mylord?

Why did I buy this bottle? That joke, my friends, that joke. Don't bother writing me hate mail.

Forest floor, clove, and cherry on the nose.

Hmmm....earth, funk, spice, cinnamon, clove, cherry, super ripe strawberry, quite tannic and harshly acidic.

The tannins flex their muscles on the finish.

The second day brought out tobacco and spice on the nose. The acid has subsided a bit, but the fruit has faded too. Lots of earth, cigar, tobacco, bell pepper, with very bold tannins. The finish is all brown spice – nutmeg and clove.

Nothing over the top exciting but on the second day this is a pretty typical, cheap, classic style Bordeaux. Not a bad bottle for ten bucks.
