2015 La Terrasse de La GardePessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more |
2/19/2020 - bunhiong wrote: NRtested from coravin, conservatively made wine, can't fault it, nicely balanced, ready to drink though it will hold for 3-5 years easily. wine is surprisingly light for a 2015 |

2013 Louis Jadot VolnayPinot Noir more |
2/11/2020 - bunhiong wrote: NRsampled a little using coravin, the wine is at the moment resembling a NSG, more tannins and acidity than I am used to in a volnay but the winemaking of jadot seem stuck in time, rustic and terribly hard to predict evolution. |

9/9/2019 - bunhiong wrote: NRthis has always been a wine whose evolution baffles me. once again, the new batch tastes thin and and slightly effervescent, seems to need time to settle. the last batch I had evolved into a different animal after 4 years, it seems to have the ability to put on weight. let's see how this vintage turns out ... |

1994 Château Haut-BrionPessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more |
7/28/2019 - bunhiong Likes this wine: NRmicro test taste via coravin dispenser, the wine is still not near full maturity, complex and very broad, while already drinkable, it would be a waste to touch this before another 10 years |

12/15/2018 - bunhiong wrote: NRtested a small serving from coravin, nicely browned, tannins finally softened to a reasonable level but still has much bite. again i am not sure if this is ever going to balance out, this is very closed on the nose and yet very much tannic still on the palate, keep for another 5 years ? |

3/4/2018 - bunhiong wrote: 89 points8 years after my last tasting in 2010, i still don't know what to make of this wine, if it's a dumb phase, it's an awfully long one. tannins seem more pronounced than before and I'm not sure if there's enough fruit to balance out. this is an unusual expression for this estate. |
