Re: My birthday, including (oh no!) a 2013 Bordeaux
Happy birthday old man.
I’m not surprised by the 2013 Montrose.
They exercised strict selection that year.
I remember Alfred telling us that he was happy with his 2013 Pontet Canet, he just “wished they had more.”

Re: The 2020 Chateau d'Armailhac has been uncorked and other ramblings....
What I liked about it, Nicola, was that it tasted like a Pauillac. And it is 13% alcohol.
It is interesting how differently styled the 2019s and 2020s are but both excellent in their own ways.
A JimHow kind of wine, 95 points.

This has a lovely ripeness and mouthfeel, I'm also finding it a nice representation of Pauillac. So far so good.

Re: 2014 Fleur Cardinale
Thanks for the note SW, and welcome! That does indeed sound very much like a 2014 vintage wine. With the exception of a few, like Pichon Baron, I’ve been finding my 2014s drinking nicely at the ten year mark, with another ten years ahead at least for most of them.

This story is confusing to me. The Louisiana AG is happy, the three liberal SCOTUS judges are sad, the NAACP lawyer is happy.

Re: President Trump
A little confused by what happened in Louisiana today because both the lawyer for the NAACP and the wild eyed Republican AG seem to be happy with a SCOTUS decision that seems to add a second majority Black congressional district? Not sure if this is good news or bad.

Has Pontet Canet changed its style?
The 2020 was a real revelation, it wasn't big and bad, it was more light on its feet and well defined I thought.

Nicola and I met JM Cases's daughter in Montreal and she said the '89 Lynch was her father's favorite vintage. I've had it over 100 times. It is the most perfect wine ever produced. It is the epitome of lead pencil cedar cassis Pauillac.
