Rough Day

Château Pichon-Longueville Baron

Baron de Pichon-Longueville Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1966

I have to toot my own horn a little on the cork removal gymnastics I performed here. Magyver would have been proud. Big wet earth component, nose of Genoa salami and tobacco. A touch of spice and cherry. Plenty of fruit but tannins dominate. Still nice on day 2. — 9 years ago

Yes @Jody Scharf this is the second '66 I've opened this week and everything is still there. It is impressive.

Château Pontet-Canet

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2002

Given the price this wasn't bad. Not terribly well integrated, but still seems like it could age a bit. Will see how it is on day 2. — 9 years ago

The Prisoner can do no wrong! Takes a while to open up. I suggest a decanter. This is a dark, inky wine. Intense flavors of tobacco, and black cherries.
