To pair with grilled chicken, marinated in tamarind, cumin, and paprika, and served with a chickpea-coconut curry sauce. I'm salivating already.

Very ripe, big red and blue fruits with hints of chocolate and cedar. Well-integrated tannins. A little bit of alcohol prominent on the finish. Not bad.

We still have a 2007 that we really need to drink.

Tonight we opened a 2014 Marie-Thérèse Chappaz Fendant Côteaux de Plamont Fully for a starter. It is good but I think it needs to be served a bit colder than cellar temp. For desert we opened a 2012 Myriad Cabernet, very tasty but a little big.

Ooof! We're still on our 2009. How much decant time did that need?

Sounds about right, I emailed Merrill and inquired about decant time, and she said 2-3 hours. I personally would do 3.

If not, I may move slightly upscale to a 2014 Chateau Capbern or 2012 Le Petit Haut Lafitte.

***Nobody else reading this is allowed to buy any of this from '93 or '95. It's mine. All mine! I call ForeverDibs on any bottle that shows up for sale. Leave it alone, you scalawags! In fact, I command you to message me the link to any that pops up.
