September 21, 2019 - Just fabulous, the wine fills your glass with palate staining fruits, rocks, stones, flowers, licorice, smoke and juicy, perfectly ripe, fresh cherries and plums. Full-bodied, pure, fresh and vibrant, the energy in the wine and purity in the silky, sensuous fruits is just great! This is gorgeous and if it is your style of wine, (I am sure you can tell it's mine) you should have this wine in your cellar.

3/9/20, 8:30 AM - 2020, PM and LC are very different in style. PM is bigger, with more mineral character and a lusher character. LC is more elegant, brighter, floral and refined. Both are stunners. But quite different.

Thank you for that great description. If they are both stunner I suppose one can’t go wrong. Your site favors the 16’, so I will grab a few of the PM for the future. It looks like a pretty good value for Bordeaux.
When would you say for drink dates? Wait 10 years? ... Thank you! -
