My Christmas Feast Is All About Cabernet
By Tim on Dec 23, 2006 in Cabernet Sauvignon, Wine
At Christmas we always make standing rib roast for our dinner. Almost every year this means a Cabernet to match with the meal. Sometimes it’s from California, other times from Chile, but most times it’s from Bordeaux.
This year’s choice is a Château Camensac 1995 that I have been cellaring for a few years. I can almost smell the pencil lead now… hope it’s not corked 
So how was it?
My ’special bottle’ was, in fact, corked. Bring on the screwcaps!
Very nice, Lenn; elegant with outstanding balance. A solid 89. You would love it.
My full notes will be posted later tonight as I enjoy the final (half) glass or so.
