11/25/2012 - diengo wrote: 94 pointsVery expressive notes of fresh & baked red fruits mixed with Asian spice, notes of sous bois and rich earthiness! A constantly changing wine that you can smell for hours before you even start to think of sipping! On the taste, this wine contains very fine acidity that plays along in your mouth with the red fruits and spices with lingers until the end! Very enjoyable & at its beginning of the drinking window. For people who love a delicate presence of tannin, drink now, others who prefer their wine fully mature, wait at least 3 more years. |

This bottle was the more intensive of the 4, notes of red cherries, mixed with figs, vanillin. The roundest of the 4 tasted and the one with most body. Great to drink now, but can still age a couple years more! |

5/16/2012 - diengo wrote: 93 pointsFenomenal wine! Brings to the nose notes of mature black and red fruits interlaces with delicate notes of minerals, graphite, tabacco and leather and perhaps a little forest floor. Very elegant and round in the mouth with delicate tannins and balances acidty, great example of St. Julien, should be drinking fine for the next 3 years without dropping maturity! |

Slightly Oxidative style of champagne great minerality with baked stone fruits. On the mouth this wine is very vibrant, mineral, and has great balance, finishing with an aftertaste of baked fruits! |

On the taste, wine is complex, balanced and very very long! Great example of Pichon Lalande! Tasted along with Les Tourelles of Pichon Baron and this wine showed a more elegant approach! Les Tourelles also great and more masculine! Reserve de la Comtesse 2000 shows a starting maturity that will last at least 5 more years! |

11/19/2011 - diengo wrote: flawedTasted in vertical with 96-97-03. The cork had spilled wine, maybe because of a heat shock. Very mature cooked red and dark fruits, not the typical Paulliac nose, remimded of a Napa Styled wine. Bit flabby in the beginning on the mouth but improved little bit with time. I think this bottle wasn't stored properly and has suffered because of heat. Definitely would like to re taste to check for consistency. |
