Zone 32

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1994

#AgedWineTuesday

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish/ brick rim.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with a beautiful nose.

Showing black plums, black currants, cedar, dried figs, licorice, dark chocolates, earth, rhubarb, tobacco leaf, light black tea and black pepper.

Long finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.

This 32 year old Pauillac is still drinking beautifully, but a bit past its prime. Rich and elegant. Very complex and spicy.

This Second Growth Bordeaux needed 5 hours to open up properly, and was not that special right out of the bottle.

Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel, and still showing enough fruits to balance the earth notes.

Robert Parker 91 points.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and with food.

A blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 8% Petit Verdot.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$200.

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

2014 vintage. Big graphite and iron nose. Intense and muscular. Medium-bodied. Complimentary fruit cradled by ridiculous tannins. Grippy and rambunctious. JC Superstar. Till 2048 at least. Not even close to entering “the zone” but so much promise once the tumblers fall into place. 10.21.23. — 3 years ago

Jacques Selosse

Substance Grand Cru Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne

Seem to have left my notes at home and now at the coast but this was such an assault on the senses I can remember 90% of it - this was a very good New Year’s Eve Champagne. Selosse deserves to be in a unique category being the product of a Solera. Quite oxidative and best served in large Burgundy glasses. Aromas of mouldy apples and oranges with notes of almond and mint. The colour is like beer with a mild mousse. Like many good wines it is constantly presenting different aromas and flavours. From memory disgorged November 2016. The intensity of flavour is profound. Only 3000 bottles made annually for the world and difficult to source. I have had the pleasure previously at tastings but only the 2nd time I have shared a bottle with my wife. This is a wine that challenges you in every respect and takes you out of your comfort zone. It is well named as Substance. — 5 years ago

Norte 32

Etiqueta Blanca Cabernet Sauvignon

Vino mexicano con cuerpo robusto, color rubi intenso y semi turbio con sedimentos en copa. Tánico con notas de roble, vainilla, sotobosque, zarzamora y canela. Por supuesto que tiene sabor salino característico de la región y unas ligeras notas de pimiento verde al final de cada sorbo.
Astringencia es media y la permanencia es alta.
