Thursday, May 5, 2022 - Tasting: The wine of the tasting for me. Would love to drink this every day of the week - tastes like a very good high-end Bordeaux, or maybe the equivalent from California.
The problem is the pricetag. This is just ridiculously expensive.

    Never tasted Petrus, but why not a modern version of Angelus?
