Saturday night...time for steak and claret as my buddy Gary Westby says. In this scenario, I envisioned the wine being equal or even better than my steak. Not to toot my horn but most everyone that's had my steak simply says meaningfully that it is the best they've had. Myself, I've only had one better the Ribcap at Bourbon Steak in SF; which sadly closed as the hotel took back the space they were in. Hopefully, soon to reopen again elsewhere in SF. However, back to the Pichon Baron. I can't say I loved it. I wanted to love it as it is one of my favorite properties in Pauillac. The wine isn't bad but it just never shined. Maybe, it's just not a good moment in it's evolution to open. It's soft, elegant but missing the beauty, flavors and complexity I've come to expect. The fruits are dry blackberry, dark cherries, black raspberries, a touch of juicy strawberries and black plum skin. Dark dry powdery minerals, saddlewood, lead pencil savings, underbrush, dry dark earth, dry pebbles. There is not much on the mid palate, it finishes a little flat and the fruits never really shined. Surprising for such a warm vintage. Hoping it improves over the years as I've got 5 more. Unusual that the wine really needed the steak more than the steak needed the wine. — 9 years ago

From my favorite Washington winery, Long Shadows Vintners. Fresh citrus fruit with a rich core. Almost feels like a Viognier but with healthy acidity. Delicious on a windy cool evening on a hotel boat in Sacramento :) — 8 years ago

This was great! A little funky of nose, super mineral with gentle hints of lemon and pretty high-toned greenness. A steal for 20GBP. Look forward to bottle #2! Cardiff/hotel — 9 years ago

2007 vintage. At poolside restaurant at the Edition Hotel, Miami Beach. Pale lemon hue. Tight on the nose - needed time to open up. Apple, greengage plum and lemon zest. Some grapefruit aromas with air. Not picking up the expected wet stone minerality in this bottle at least at this stage of its development. Very youthful. Hint of rubbery note but quite subtle. On the palate, bright, precise and clean, massive acidity, medium minus body and medium intensity. Medium finish. Very enjoyable with fish lunch. Being from a great vintage, this wine is still way too youthful and has yet to develop depth and complexity. I think it should not be touched for another 5-7 years and thereafter should drink well until 2030+. — 9 years ago
