1993 Château La Mission Haut-BrionPessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/7/2012 - tsec1224 wrote: 90 pointsMeaty, purple fruit, sweet spice on the bouquet. Tannin has softened with the aging, but still had some grip. Displays usual earthiness of grave. Very well balanced especially given the vintage. well opened just by airing in the glass. The wine is fully ready and unlikely to benefit from much more aging. |

8/26/2012 - tsec1224 wrote: 85 pointsSmooth and balanced, ready to drink. Tannin very integrated, soft and round, Unlikely to benefit much from additional collaring. Dark cherry. Slight bit of green pepper nose. Classic right bank Bordelaise merlot blend. Was more mineral and herbal at first, then purple fruit, vanilla, and pepper surfaced after about 0.5-1hr. |

2009 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Les ClosChardonnay more |
2/28/2013 - tsec1224 wrote: 92 pointsWhite flower, lime, green apple notes accentuated intense minerality of the nose. Although I am not fan of wood in Chablis, oak softens the minerality and acidity in this robust wine, and it integrates into the background with time. Had it opened for a few days and it kept evolving, which suggests longevity. |
