I was worried about this but after about an hour it came into its own. More blue cheese, less tobacco than the Pichon Lalande, with nice lingering acidity. — 10 years ago
2009 vintage. Medium ruby - slight copper hue. Strawberry and spice. Some oak here. Quite elegant on the palate but with depth of fruit - post fermentation maceration? Medium plus acidity. Medium minus tannin - soft. This is an approachable, soft and silky wine that gives quite a lot of pleasure. It's not going to blow you away. But it's a delightful wine with fair amount of length. Very youthful. — 10 years ago

The second wine in this flight was a favorite of the group, a classic 1985 Pichon Baron from the south end of Pauillac near Saint-Julien. When we first opened it there was talk of it maybe being corked, but we decanted it and the funk blew off and the wine blossomed into a beautiful old Cabernet. A gorgeous dark red color barely shows its age, a great first sign. The boquet shone with mints, red and black currants, a touch of bell pepper (in a good way), a strong note of pencil lead and a hint of smoke. The tannin were mostly resolved and integrated well in this wine, something I had read it had issues with in its youth. A long, elegant but focused finish, this wine is in a great place and very present once it woke from its slumber — 8 years ago
2015 Domaine St. Andre de Figuiere Premiere Rose. Midday rose during staycation at Tap. Easy to drink, nice rose. — 9 years ago
Opened for science and found it to be surprisingly open. Classic Cab/ Mer balance with unsubtle but not overwhelming oak and, a day after having a supermarket bottle of Baron de Brane with similar thoughts, makes me wonder if most Bordeaux tastes about the same, if I have a crappy palate, if we are all subject to the narcissism of small differences or all three. Thoroughly enjoyable. I feel like Guy Fieri right now. — 9 years ago
