Re: 2016 Grand Puy Lacoste has been uncorked and other ramblings

Jim

Opened a bottle of the 2016 GPL last week. Last purchase of GPL prior to that for me was a case in 2000 which I have been enjoying over the past few years. I believe, in the end, I will prefer the 2016.

I'm a Northern Rhone neophyte; have mostly focused on Bordeaux, Burgundy, Barolo and the occasional Chateauneuf. I recently bought some 2017 Chapoutier Crozes and Jaboulet Crozes Thalabert. Anyone have other recommendations for St Joseph or Crozes?

Re: President Trump

Tim In response to your queries: 1. The absolute lack of compassion, corruption, dishonesty and the way in which the current president has divided the country. I am looking for anyone to unite the country. Certainly, Biden would be a much better choice. I worry about those who influence him to pull ...
