And to each his own.
But, when you're tasting are you just going with first impressions? Do these wines have any layers that reveal themselves as the tasting progresses?
And I'm not defending the Bordeaux. Many of the current French wines are starting to imitate California, Australia, Chilean, etc. Fruit forward and lack of complexity.
I've had the Freak Show, the Cypher (maybe not the vintage), and I've had some Niner. IMO, initial sip is all that the wine is going to offer.
