Well done gang....looking forward to more notes

robertgoulet

I am really enjoying 2003....I have tasted it three times in the last 8 months...I have two left that I am trying to hold off on, it's difficult....the struggle is real.

In the past year I have tasted the '99 D'armailhac twice....one was incredible the other just good. The '00 once, a very nice showing And an '01, not as robust as '00 of course but it contained all the nuances I look for in a classic Pauillac. This is a great Chateau for the tariff, but nothing tou...

I am sensing a potential flash off at the upcoming BWE

Stay tuned boys

This is some big ole fancy story that Jim had to tell reminding us that his nuggets are much larger than ours....and now consequently much smoother also! Good to see you shall continue residing as Alpha/benevolent dictator for many more years to come Cheers to your upcoming lifestyle changes and ste...

I had this 8-9 years back....I felt it had a new world creamy feel to it but I did enjoy it.

robertgoulet

Enjoyed 2006 d'issan, creamy, but nice dusty earth and leather....dufort vivens was giving up zilch.

robertgoulet

Great...now I have to pop my only 2002.... pape clement

Still wish I had another 2002 Alter Ego....beautiful wine

Killing me with these notes....this sounds like a Goulet vintage

robertgoulet

Sociando is one of my favorite Chateau's. I love their wines.

robertgoulet

Loved '06...Lathered in leather

robertgoulet

Had the 2000 'aria' a couple years back...was never stored, just pulled str8 from the retail shelf....was clearly a bit tired with mild oxidation...though u could see some nice material underneath. I am sure it was nice in its youth.

robertgoulet

Was the Dunn...Napa or Howell mt. ?

robertgoulet

Pop and pour
A bit shy initially, but slowly unfolded
Loved the crisp red fruit, some nice snap to it, then green olives start poppin' and graphite notes emerge...good tannin structure noticed on the finish...I enjoyed this quite a bit.

My first Pibran but definitely not my last

robertgoulet

2002 alter ego was awesome

Lalande was good but tiiiiight

robertgoulet

Re: '04...everywhere I looked on the left has pleased me majority of the time

robertgoulet

I only own the '08...was hoping it would be in the lineup, but still way too young to even consider I assume.....but wow what an epic event.

robertgoulet

Happy to see this post...I am friends with Tahmiene Momtazi she is a wonderful young lady who is the wine maker for her family vineyard Maysara...I need to pop the latest Jamsheed

And yes...pray for France

robertgoulet

Janis scored 2014 LHB as high as the first growths....OMFG...back up the truck

robertgoulet

Prices r creeping up on LHB...I am a fan....it's a new world/old world wine...my favorite '08 to date.

robertgoulet

Not to say I have tasted a large sample of 2003 bordeaux, but I am yet to find anything overwhelming in terms of ripeness....though my samples have been mostly left bank...

robertgoulet

Wish I had another bottle of '03 D'issan....nothing profound on the palate but drinks very well, actually quite soft and elegant to taste....but those aromatics were off the charts...I didn't even want to drink it...just sniff sniff sniff

robertgoulet

Haha!! Yes it izz!! in fact...right now I am drinking another wonderful Goulet type wine...2001 D'armailhac....a bit worried at first...runner up the cork, light sign of seepage...mold covered the top like a bad toupee...tart, bitter and a bit closed upon opening....once this baby took in its share ...

robertgoulet

I agree...my first bottle def. Yes....this bottle was not bringing much in the way of fruit or ripeness.....rather more of classic cab franc profile, ash tray and freshly cut green tobacco leaf...wonderful

robertgoulet

Réserve de la Comtesse 2004 was just killer Pauillac, tasted 2x's once with Orlando Bobby...he loved it

Very impressed with this second

Another second....2010 lacoste borie is rockin'

robertgoulet

Had this at release but I was probably more around 91-92points...now I may be forced to check in on its evolution

robertgoulet

Save your scheckles and just drink d'armailhac! !

My buddy just popped the '01 the other day...said it was smokin'

robertgoulet

One left 4 me

robertgoulet

Bought 3 bottles of '05 Peby faugeres special cuvee as a flip or trade bait since Parker rescored it at 100 points...procured them for $69 each....I guess this should be in the deals thread

robertgoulet

Isn't '15 extremely hot ?

robertgoulet

1982 Talbot is a surreal wine experience

robertgoulet

Anyone have the '98 la grave a pomerol?

robertgoulet

Sociando is a giant killer

robertgoulet

Rouge...all gone...grabbed a case for orlando bobby also...he posted a note on berserkers ...they had about 10 cases...I should if went all in...it drinks fantastic....crunchy cool red fruits...crisp acidity...leather...funk....wonderful

robertgoulet

2010 chapoutier st. joseph....killer stuff....$7.50 per bottle...I grabbed 4 cases

robertgoulet

50-52 because I want to protect the integrity of my children's birth year wines.....my wines will live forever!!!! <insert evil laugh >

robertgoulet

True some are sensitive to bell pepper...I fine with it...but not in the way Du Tertre was laced with it...to its defense I caught a nearly bottle of our beloved Giscours in a similar state..just not as pronounced....and we know how that wine turned out....it rocks

robertgoulet

How dare u disagree with me...I demand an apology! ! ;) lol This was the bottle I received....Orlando Bobby saw very little redeeming quality...I saw some light...but Bobby and I love cab franc (meaning we love green).....but we didn't like this green...another taster had difficulty drinking it....j...

robertgoulet

Both parties are spending money to fast...republicans at least fake it better then the dems...both r getting us past the point of no return...just maybe the Republicans a little bit slower...I wonder which party will be the last one holding the bag

robertgoulet

Had it years ago...def. had a new world edge from what I remember...but I remember liking it
