Bunch o' Bdx

Drinks and dinner at the Chariot Club, Hong Kong.

1985 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc - definitely oxidized/off.  Still some oak and some acidity, but not much body left.

1986 Pichon-Lalande - lots of smoke, earth, mint, sweet fruit like cassis, leather and soy sauce.  Very classic.

1997 Rouget Echezeaux - nice red fruits here, dried herbs, forest.

1997 Salon - toast, minerals, lemon citrus on the nose.  Ripe on the palate.

1988 Clinet - smoky, minty and earthy.

2002 Palmer - smoky with sweet fruit, brett/medicinal.
