I popped the '97 pignan with Orlando Bobby last year...showed extremely well....wonderful producer

I remember their '05 Cap de Faugeres being a cracker on release.

Here is all I will say

My buddy is in St. Emilion...he texts me and says,
"Hey, this is an up and coming Bordeaux"
and sends a pic...the pic?

Tour Saint Christophe

locally the Calon Segur is $75 ...what r u guys seeing?

This producer has received a lot of respect among BWE'ers for recent vintages - I actually have a couple bottles of the 2012 based on comments here. Tonight is about a different vintage of Barde Haut - the 2000. I bought six bottles after release for about $34 at the long ago defunct Sam's Wines in...

great pick Jim to atone for your 2016 sin!!!
Everytime I see it all I can think about is that BeeGee's song 'Tragedy'

FYI, I absolutely love that Calon Segur quote above which gives significance to the heart label...well done

Congrats Calon Segur!

loved the '04....all earth and leather

robertgoulet

everytime I heard the name Pappadoc, someone was speaking of him with the utmost respect. Obviously a great and dignified man. Sorry I never got to meet him.
Godpeed to the true 'Big Pappa'

robertgoulet

had the '06 last yr....I didn't think it was that great...lacked that pauillac goodness and something about the oak on the finish seemed cheap or phoney...drank two seperate bottles that night....I have 3 in the cellar (purchased w/o tasting) because it is my son Cage's birth yr.

robertgoulet

Zzzzzzzzz
lol

1989 Lynch, 2008 Haut Brion and 2012 Margaux. The first for obvious reasons, but the latter two for sentimental reasons as they are my kids' birthyears and are slated to be gifts for them. I know the question asking for one bottle. But I took the liberty of listing 3 as all they are in one 3-bottle...

2014 gpl $55 local
..@total slime

robertgoulet

just had this a week ago ....this is a structured style built along the old world/new world style...didn't seem as heavily oaked as some of the '05 meyney...not exactly fully open for business to achieve complete enjoyment. ..still enjoyable nonetheless This feels like a wine that could age a long t...

2000....big thumbs up

robertgoulet

excuse me
.is that a burger on an English muffin?

RobertGoulet: is the wine associated with Figeac? or is it just around the general area? I have not heard of it. I've had a few other St Em's with 'Figeac' in the name and - at least to me - they don't all have the leafy notes of Figeac. Nicklass: B-D is a wine we rarely see comments on! Where's Ro...

robertgoulet

and....12.5% alc.

how they should be

robertgoulet

This really was a quality little wine....to be fair, it will never be the most complex wine, but the charm was completely overwhelming... sad that I can only get this here in Dallas since they do not ship.

robertgoulet

Dusty earth, cigar leaf, leather, mint, mint, mint.....heaven

Good nite

robertgoulet

Re: VCC: their vines are spitting distance from Petrus

robertgoulet

I love the '03 now

my favorite is 1998...tasted it 8years ago...i didn't score it as high then because I was into more new world wines...it was a fantastic treat, my notes say red fruited with tapenade and coffee notes.

robertgoulet

The picture of Rolland is much more offensive...

robertgoulet

hahahaha yes!!! the winemakers collection...awwwwwful!!!

I am not fond of the bad boy label either....cheesy

robertgoulet

the R. segla '09 trying to appeal to the asian audience was a disaster

'93 mouton balthus blank label PC is bullshit

I do not particularly like the La Confession label

the clerk milon is fine, I like it

robertgoulet

Jim r u ready to part with the Raffault's???
Oh pretty please!

robertgoulet

Sniffing glue??? I gotta party with u Harry!!! Lol

Thanx for the notes...I am waiting at least 5 more years to pop the Pontet....would have loved to have seen the Sociando and some Margaux's in the line up.

robertgoulet

Has this....def. not a BWE kind of wine...it's a pass

robertgoulet

2012 is $89 local

robertgoulet

I purchased 3 bottle of 2002 alter ego....a beautiful wine early on....I popped them a couple weeks back and unfortunately they showed very poorly ....I had to pour 1 down the sink. The bottles looked pristine, but were stored at around 70 degrees since release...apparently not the right formula for...

robertgoulet

Comtesse for me is a better 2nd....2004 comtesse was an absolute delight, pauillac heaven....the last dame I tasted was 2010 and I found it good but fairly boring.
Notes on 2012 comtesse look fairly solid

robertgoulet

2012 d'armailhac solid

robertgoulet

Not sure my true definition of aged is....but when i experience that "game changer" bordeaux its generally 15 plus years old....'04 SHL the exception

robertgoulet

I like them young too on occasion, but make no mistake....when I taste a truly epic bottle of bordeaux....
It has age

robertgoulet

Popped 2012 D'armailhac last night....I was hesitant to open it, but glad I did...very enjoyable young bordeaux with plenty of those bordeaux characteristics that we love...semi sweet, cigar, graphite, leather....will grab another

robertgoulet

They may have mags of the margaux

robertgoulet

A fan of this producer..very underrated..walks the old/new world line so a wide audience can appreciate..def.liking some of these '11.
