Sipping Fine Wine

Saw an ‘06 on a wine list and grabbed this 12 year-old beauty. Mike Grgich 1st gained international recognition at the celebrated "Paris Tasting" of '76 where a panel of eminent French judges were shocked they chose Mike’s '73 Montelena Chard as the finest white wine in the world! Elegant, rich berry fruit aromas, licorice notes. On the palate blackberry & cherry, bits of cacao and cinnamon, soft fine tannins. Lingering finish ending with soft oaky notes. Opened quickly and drank beautifully. — 8 years ago

Picked this up on a whim at the airport on the way home from Paris. It was worth every Euro for a Christmas treat. Fruity with a delightful almost citrus sparkle to it — 10 years ago

Very nice southern Rhone. Bit hot at 15%, but honestly manages to stay together regardless. Nice fine finish with good earth, lots of dark fruit, and acid to keep it fresh. Excellent pairing with a braised lamb shank. Had at Les Papilles in Paris. — 10 years ago

1995 vintage. At Moet Hennessy private apartment in Paris. Medium amber hue. Amazing colour. Some good maturity on the nose - earthy, morel mushroom, metallic and red fruit character. Youthful despite the complexity. On the nose, medium plus acidity, delicate bubbles, medium alcohol, medium minus body, medium plus concentration and long finish. Excellent. Drink now until 2030+ — 10 years ago

Almost 60 years, both the wine and me when I drank it in Paris, with very good friends. I felt great and the wine tasted really super. Served blind, I called it a very well aged Pauillac. I thought it was a younger wine.😏 #bordeaux #paris #pauillac #pichonbaron — 13 years ago
