2012 Château du Pin
Community Tasting Note

91 Points
Friday, March 1, 2019 - At this price and for a myth, I find it shameful, far behind Lafleur, Petrus, Ausone but also wines 50 times cheaper, for example Clos L'Eglise. Rarity does not excuse everything

I only wish that I'd seen your note prior to plonking down $6 for this rather ordinary coiff. I will now seek out this Clos L'église of which you speak, which by my inflation-adjusted calculations, should set me back 17 cents, but which I have no doubt, will be worth every penny
