A Customer - Richmond, VA

Tried this at The Ocean Air in Washington, D.C. Big hit at the table. Odd thing is, I don't remember it being more than $70 at the restaurant. It was definitely a 2004. I am no wine expert so my description will be awful. It was very smooth and felt very big in your mouth (full bodied?). I don't recall any odd hints of fruit. There was a unique after taste that lingered. We had 3 bottles of wine at the table (two others costing twice as much as this one and allegedly rated above 95 by wine spectator) and this was emptied first. We found the other wines, which were suppose to be far superior, quite inferior in taste to this one. We regretting not ordering more of the Casa Lapostolle instead of the french wine we were left to drink.
