St. Julien makes me dream more than Margaux. Just as Pessac-Leognan Pomerol and stimulate my imagination advantage of the Haut-Medoc and St. Emilion. Although the great wines I drank in each of these calls can be counted on the fingers of both hands, it goes without saying that even without dripping, some names have that gift you exiter neurons as a test of Frederic Bastiat.
And it does not bother me. I let the wine that power to play our prejudices, images that are being built. Instead, I am convinced that the discoveries that we will eventually do that are more beautiful.
prices great wines are down, and that's good news. I saw this weekend Carbonnieux red 2006-18 Carrefour € 70 in Boulogne. And I gained Latour Martillac to 15 € 60. Wine fairs in September will, undoubtedly, the panacea.

The color is blood red wine, nice and deep . The disc shows no sign of evolution.
The wine is only open for 30 minutes. Nose is powerful. But meaty notes of cassis rise in my nostrils. The aroma of roasting are a few more, very pleasant. Without flaws, it's nice. And most aerates the wine, the more amplified the notes, plus the smell of dried fruit.
palate, the attack is fresh. The tannins are well blended. Although round, the wine speaks frankly. Swallowed, it reminds me, in basjoues, nuts that could have long chewed. Notes of walnuts and hazelnuts in the final nut should I say, the wine is long on the palate, flavors of several seconds uninterrupted.
Frankly, this plonk in shipping!
