You could feel the tension increasing as February 28th came and went, yet was there no word from the lord, nor even from his prophet, who did not appear through the pillar of cloud, nor even the burning bush bearing his tablets of stone with the Ten 100 Pointers engraved thereon. However, by Friday all was well. He managed to push the send button and we all have our copy of Chapter 205 of the Book of Parker. And so we thought, obviously, that you would like an update of the thoughts of Parker regarding the fabled 2010 Bordeaux as he revisits them to taste the finished wines for the first time. Would he still like them? Or was it all a dream? What do you think?...
'... other than 2009, this vintage has turned out slightly better than 2000 and as impressive as 2005'
'... unquestionably another great vintage'
'While Bob Dylan may have been talking about his own country when he wrote the song With God On Our Side, it sure looks as if fate has smiled on Bordeaux in an extraordinary way for much of the last decade'
- Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, 28 February(ish) 2013
