Default TN: white and red Bordeaux, plus Malbec

Went to some friends for a dinner of bulgogi, tofu, avocado, rice, bok choy, & glazed sweet potato, followed by a spirited game of Chinese checkers

2014 Ch. LEnclos (Bordeaux Blanc)
Clean, unoaked, grapefruit and grass, tastes mostly SB. B/B-

2000 Ch. Grand Corbin Despagne
Dark berry, a little cocoa and vanilla, just a hint of tannin remaining, fine but really hasn't added much interest since it's youth, B

2015 Alamos Malbec
Quite sweet, some rather coarse tannin, low acid. C+

Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C drinkable. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice.Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.
