Tuesday, March 30, 2021 - Two Rhônes Diverged in a Wood.... ("Chateau La Grange" - La Grange IL): Double(ish) blind in Northern Rhône flight. Wow, what a shock and a treat! Meaty and earthy aromas with mature, ripe black cherry and plum. Palate is all that and more, coming across as powerful and charmingly balanced. Great right now. Oddly, I had this same wine from the same case two years ago and it was much more tired and not even close to this level of excellence. This was my #1 fav wine of the (10 wine) flight, and group's #3.
