Blind Tasting 2005s w/RP

[Peter Creasey]

Blind tasting is tough tasting Bordeaux 2005 with Robert Parker.

Even though the tasting was blind, everyone knew the lineup of wines and it included some of the most heralded wines of the vintage as the Parker scores (in parentheses) indicate:
Angelus (98) Cos dEstournel (98) Ducru Beaucaillou (97) Haut Brion (98) Lafite Rothschild (96+) La Mission Haut Brion (97) Larcis Ducasse (98) Latour (96+) LEglise Clinet (100) Margaux (98+) Montrose (95) Pape Clement (98) Pavie (98+) Le Gay (95) Troplong Mondot (99)

Blind tasting removes preconceptions about wines while maintaining the ability to rate wines in a peer group setting.

Blind tasting can be ruthless in its outcomes.

Anybody can have a bad day, even Big Bob.

Although it is especially satisfying when Big Bob has a bad day.

This is so vindictive of me. I must be a bad person. I AM a bad person. I'm going to go listen to The Cramps now...
