2012 Château Nénine
11/9/2020 - BullDeacon Likes this wine: 90 Points
Wild quality for the price. Medium acid, medium-plus body, tannins well integrated. Medium ruby with garnet on the rims. Nose full of cola, black cherries, licorice, chocolate, graphite, flint. Drinking very well right now, and probably has a couple years left in it.

2015 Fontodi Chianti Classico
10/30/2020 - BullDeacon Likes this wine: 92 Points
Blind tasting of four Tuscan Sangiovese wines. My favorite of the four. Tasted against 2014 CastelGiacondo Brunello di Montalcino, 2015 La Braccesca Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and 2018 Rocca di Castagnoli Fattoria di Scannano Chianti. Color a medium ruby, starting to show garnet notes. Cedar, cigar box, leather, smokey, dark red cherries, and raspberries.

1985 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
10/6/2020 - BullDeacon Likes this wine: 96 Points
Vibrant deep garnet color. Dominated by grass, mushroom, forest floor, earthy undergrowth, leather, and tobacco notes on the nose and palate. After about an hour notes of toasted bread or biscuit showed up. Well integrated tannins still showing, especially on the finish. Well balanced if not a little delicate after 35 years - still full of body. Amazing long, full finish. Drink now if you’ve got it. Find some and drink it now if you don’t.
