8/16/18, 2:51 PM - Your background tidbit is qualified here as it presents some historical context. Not dumb at all. Well done.
4/13/18, 3:44 PM - Thanks for the post. A great vintage, site, producer, and quality. Prum is so good even in average years with regular bottlings, but those Goldkapsels, oh my, they are in another realm.I have had many issues with older (8 years+) German Riesling corks most recently last night with a 2004 Christoffel Auslese, so maybe it's a German thing. Nothing like bringing one of those to an Indian or Thai restaurant and having the cork break apart (like has happened to us multiple times).So what was the price anyway?
3/25/18, 3:22 PM - Time should help- and plenty of it. If you have any left, leave alone for at least 5 more years. This is one of the slower developing wines in that vintage, IMO.
3/23/18, 4:20 PM - Both vintages are great, as is this producer for several vintages more. Wish I had more than one of the '04 left. An amazing Brunello.
2/16/18, 3:41 PM - Heheh. I did the same thing back in June. Good post. Good juice.
1/7/18, 1:46 PM - Fits mine too. Love this wine and this vintage is exceptional.
11/12/17, 4:20 PM - 2014 is a very bad vintage for Tuscany in general. My least favorite of this bottling since my first try in 2009.
5/3/17, 2:36 PM - Don't give up on it just yet.
3/30/17, 3:06 PM - Wow, Boy Scout fundraisers have changed since I was a kid.
3/30/17, 3:04 PM - Don't give up, it's a good vintage. Step back awhile and give it some time. Cold days are good days to pop a Clio cork. I've had good bottles of this vintage and will let my remaining Magnum & 750 rest. Opened a 2002 last month and was delighted. I also think my palate is changing but still enjoy a good Clio.
3/30/17, 2:48 PM - Great note. I think you nailed it. You made me reminisce about previous enjoyment of this wine. Try the '05 sometime if you can. It's the more powerful younger brother.
2/18/17, 9:01 AM - The Pacenti will improve with time- the more time the better. Don't rush into these. Revisit in 2020-2025 and I think you will be more impressed.
12/19/15, 12:54 PM - It's probably too early to open one of these. Needs time. Will be more rewarding in 5-10 years.
2/22/15, 4:28 PM - Hear hear! After I posted I looked at the notes and the scores and was surprised. You see it, bravo! I guess there will be more for us.
2/21/15, 3:34 PM - I liked your post and it was very timely, so I shared it here: http://forums.winespectator.com/eve/forums?a=tpc&s=9306023451&f=3146091161&m=3957034842&r=6227064842#6227064842Good stuff!
2/14/15, 10:27 AM - A solid (and still relatively unknown) QPR.
1/30/15, 3:23 PM - Damn, buy a case or two at that price and pass the bottles around throughout the year. Should be an easy crowd-pleaser.
Thanks for letting us know about this problem. We will review your comments and be in touch soon with an update.
