Hillary feminine?

Rubbing your inner thighs?...ewwwwww

robertgoulet

I like this wine quite a bit but at the price here $39 it's a pass
It has nice pessac character and form structure
If this was $25 I would be an extremely happy drinker.

robertgoulet

Hahaha...no someone else brought the '03 Pavia, Bobby brought the '04 and I brought the '99

None of the bottles were very exciting.....I probably would have voted pre-perse Pavie as the better choice

robertgoulet

have had it twice...once with an '83 cheval....it showed well, better than a disjointed, hot version I tasted 6months prior with Orl. Bobby

robertgoulet

2012 CM lacks that extra gear but it's a nice drink

robertgoulet

Yes whites also

robertgoulet

Don't get me wrong 2010 is a great wine, but marred by too much toasty oak....or that's what it tasted like to me

robertgoulet

Very good wine, just had it the other day....and I prefer it to 2010 Also just popped a 2nd label 2012 Le Petit Haut Lafitte....had good structure, firm tannin on the finish...takes 10-15min. to open up...nice pessac expression...stones and lght smoke detected Though I feel Clos Marsalette is better...

robertgoulet

Here is the note on the 2010!!! Lolol....this was when Jim didn't like parkerized right bankers! Next the Clos de l'oratoire...AKA: the Panty Dropper This wine is like that girl you don't want to hang with, but you call at 2:30am after a night of heavy consumption It's right bank, it's parkerized, i...

robertgoulet

I can say right now 2012 pessacs r solid....liking the quality and price....I do not find them profound but they are of sound quality!

robertgoulet

Remember....the 2010 Clos l'Oratoire was the Panty Dropper!! Most exotic wine of the grand tasting here in bore'lando

Great job on these young 2015 Alex.

Palate alignment! Excellent

robertgoulet

This note on the '01 sounds right in the Goulet wheelhouse ....wish I could taste this wine!!

robertgoulet

RobertG... No, I do not turn into a dud when it comes to the Left Bank. It is about the wines, not me. Read my effusive praise for Margaux, Pessac Leognan and select Pauillac wines in 2015. You can see the same high energy for many St. Estephe and Pauillac wines in 2014. One other point, at least f...

Of all the blogs I have seen...Allex has the best layout

robertgoulet

He's saving it for 2016

robertgoulet

But does he use discriptors like "panty dropper?" I missed my calling....lololol....fail

robertgoulet

Ditto what Jim says love your layout

robertgoulet

I like some young Bordeaux very much so, but then you taste a wine like '82 Talbot and it unapologetically smacks ya punk ass around and declares "that's why you drink your Bordeaux with some age on it bitch!!" That's how I felt....I think that's why people chase that unicorn

robertgoulet

I'm changing mine to Gravesdigger

robertgoulet

I do not look or rely on one critic and I am not looking for extra enthusiastic notes....I look for people I respect that my palate aligns with (and they do not have to be a semi/professional critic).....when I find these people and they recommend a wine I have no issues going out and procuring a bo...

robertgoulet

Then he turns into a dud when he reviews the left bank?

robertgoulet

Well done Noah

Prepare for your proper hazing that should commence in the coming weeks
Overdoses of moonpies and off vintage Bordeaux!! A dream haze!!!

robertgoulet

Jail bait

robertgoulet

I am still haunted by the aromatics of the '03 d'issan tasted 3years back with Orlando Bobby. It's very difficult to beat the scent of a great Margaux....stunning!

robertgoulet

2003 LP was a big disappointment at our dinner last year...disjointed, charmless, hot

robertgoulet

Something tells me that '09 is not shutting down but I could be wrong

robertgoulet

I did like the '96 GPL but the '95 is a notch above

'12 du tertre was just OK a year ago, but I think these '12's are getting better in the bottle so I will reserve judgement.

robertgoulet

'88Beychevelle was just pretty good to me.

robertgoulet

I loved '95 GPL

robertgoulet

Wow Jim I thought 2010 GPL was outstanding as was the entire stable....a stand out wine

Hmmmm

robertgoulet

It's good not sure if it's great Had the clos marsalette '12 last night.....a wonderful nose, minerals minerals minerals, stony, dark fruits, on the palate there is not much complexity, but the crisp acid gave it a nice lift. The wine went down so easy that it kept me returning for another pour. Not...

robertgoulet

I lost count on how many wonderful rive gauche '04's I've tasted

robertgoulet

Mag of 2009 LL here $79

Any thoughts on the '09?

robertgoulet

Yes it's fairly cool....kept around 53 degrees...may wait on that one

robertgoulet

I have the 2010 La Croix St Georges as a birth yr wine for Jett...looking forward to it.

robertgoulet

Nice pours....saw a 2011 gazin for $67 here local...anyone taste this yet?

robertgoulet

'03 is drinking nice also, stood up to an '83 Cheval and held its ground

robertgoulet

Love Talbot!!! My last note with O.Bobby 1982 Talbot.... An absolute epic bottle of Bordeaux. An earthy beast loaded with secondary and tertiery notes. Initially, I'm getting slapped in the mouth by an old worn cat of nine tails, very nice...followed by earth, smoke, dusty red fruits. On the palate,...

robertgoulet

Wow...crazy line up...Talbot rocks!!!...Next year u should do a dinner with all the BWE WOTY...u guys do It right
