Another Costco wood box of 4 Bordeaux, third one to try at Torry Schoolhouse. Has that classic Bordeaux woody notes but are in balance with fruits. Very nice but just a touch below first one. 80/10/5/5 Merlot Cab Franc Cab Malbec. WE 91.

With Jancis Robinson’s 16/20, James Suckling’s 91 - and “drink or hold ” until 2022 recommendations, my choice was to uncork the bottle now and no regrets whatsoever - my best Blaye so far.

Second one in the $30 wood Costco box of four Bordeaux wines to try. More tannins in this one without a lot red fruits on the palate. Lighter body with leather and wood on the nose. Still an enjoyable wine. And still wishing I had picked up two of these boxes instead of one!
