Some of my favourite and most exciting wine experiences have often come about when I’m least expecting them.
On Saturday night I drank a bottle of Ch Pichon Baron, 2eme Cru Pauillac 1993. If anyone has this in their cellar, you should drink it now and really enjoy it.
We have just received an email offering us 2 bottles of Ch Lafite Rothschild BLANC 1959 for 2395 euros. I must be one of the very few people ever to have drunk this wine.
Much as it goes against the grain to promote somebody else’s events this sounds so good that I feel compelled to mention it. All five Bordeaux First Growths have been
“The 1971 is a little wine, pleasant enough, but lacking concentration, richness, character, and length. It has been ready to drink for some time, and now seems to be losing its fruit.”
