What about the price of Rausan and Canon ( went from 145$ca in futur to 225$ca at the UGC and Canon from 175 to 425$ca)!!!

JeanFred

I have tasted the 2015 with Nic, a week ago, I share is opinion.

And I put emphasis on Margaux, The aoc to buy: Rauzan, giscours, Malescot, Brane-Catenac, Lascombes, all excellent!

I have also really liked Pessac for the Freshness and classic claret bordeaux.


JeanFred

Also taste the Sauterne. A sprint tasting at the end. Taste 6 Sauternes in less than 10 monutes... Like the red, 2015 is a very good vintage: I prefer Guiraud: freshness, classic, Powerfull and long than a bite under Fargues - Nice botrytis and oaky aspect Lafaurie-Pey. - lot of richness and zesty a...

I was there in Mtl with Nic I can say I have in general the same impression than Nic The best AOC was Margaux very sedutive and the margauxberry fruity than Pessac with a magnificient freshness and a pleasant mineral aspect. More variation for the Nord Medoc aoc with some wine closed: Lynch and Poyf...

As Chris said, we should start new thread for the Thursday and Friday the get the count

Can just help to create a buzz.

Also, that we will help me and Nick which bottles we are going to bring or to buy

Jean-Fred

I Still don't know what to bring:
A Richebourg from Chave or
My Hermitage from La Romanée Conti???

Jean-Fred

And About Québec-Canada Jim!!!

I'm glad to be on board again for this convention!

I like the idea of Burgundy on Friday night.

Jean Fred

At the end, I prefer my 2015 "extra" case than 2 bottles of Pavie 2016

Finally

I put a order: I bought a case of... 2015!

With the price of 2016, specialy in Qc, I decided to buy more 2015.

Price 2015 vs 2016

6x Poyferré 130 - 163$

3 x. L Barton 125 - 157$

3 x. Giscours 89 - 107$

Les Français are crazy!

As Dstgolf wrote, the price are insane.

Big deception for me. I was hoping for decent price after the Cos release but the game change with NM cote and 2017...

Why you say that Jean-Nic about 2016?

JeanFred

Don't be worry Nic

You can say that she's a BWE member...

She's Bourgogne Wine Enthusiast, AAAHHH!

Ouch!

And Nic
Your confession?

Jean Fred

Am I right if I Say

Sound like a BWE vintage!

It would be a good quiz. From the comment: 2015 or 2016 and from bottle 2009 or 2010?

Nic

By "decent" price, I mean equal to 2015 or 10% lower

1995, you can always dream!

Jean Fred

Exactly

The first growth was 395$ on 2000, Palmer 199$, Cos 139$,...
275$ on 2001
225$ on 2002

Agree that a offline would be great

Jean Frédéric

Very interesting and give some hope for decent price

I hear The same kind of story for 1991 Bordeaux...

TIM brings back the Legend...

3 BWE Legends with the 67 Legend

Thank you Jim

Now

I'm going to read you post to post a picture

Tha't coming...

Friday night Another great diner. A lot impressive wine. I decided to concentrate my tasting on the Burgunny and the Californian Cab. In general, I had very good Pinot, especially Clos des Lambrays.

I'm a bit late with my notes of the wines but... Thursday Night - The 89 Shine! The 3 champagnes was excellent and started well the dinner.

After the great champagne, I started with the 2 Canon 82-83, those wines was the wines a prefer, with Evangile Canon 82 Cherry nose, cigar box, earthy, complex and long, same thing in mouth, Round, very long, So charming...

I had the chance to taste the 3 Haut-Brion 64-70-78. By far the 1978 was the best of the group, with mushroom and earthy nose. Long mouth, melted tannin, round, good balance with good freshness – 94. The H-B 70 was good, earthy Grave taste but to much alcohol in final – 90. The 1964 was correct, sam...

Since, I'm running more serously, I would say in average, 3-4 bottles per week from Thursday to Sunday with my wife.
