2005 Domaine de la Veuve-Poignet, cuvee "Les Deux Orphelines"

I was alone when I had this one.

Nose: very off-putting, somewhat pungent, not sure if this was a flaw
or not. Smelled a hint of chlorine.

Palatte: a touch briney, but overall it was dense and creamy,
definitely had a lot of contact with wood.

Finish: fairly cloying and sticky

Overall impressions: not entirely satisfying, left me wanting for
something more, but it did the job for the moment. Wines from this
domaine are starting to rub off on me. Caveat: this was rather warm
when served.

I hear that their flagship wine, "Maitre du Domaine", while perhaps
overly hedonistic when young, becomes much more restrained with age.

Ick, love AF jokes, don't like ones that are gross.
Just replied as I had no clue from glancing at name, didn't read note
(and wish I never had).
