Good to good+. This was solid and seemed a proper bottle, I liked it, but it just had a stoicism that didn't take it to the level that I was hoping for.

Just took delivery of this and wanted to take an early spin. Initially reserved, but within 30 minutes it was showing quite well. At 60 minutes singing. I suspect this will be a vintage of Martray CC that can both please in the short term and reward a bit of patience. I very much enjoyed it, but the value proposition will likely be questionable for many.

I red attentively your degustation notes about your CdM and Krug tasting. In October I organized a complete vertical tasting of all 16 CdM. My favorites are 79, 82 and 96. What do you think? Would you do it blindly? Cheers
1/18/2015 8:29:00 AM - Brad, we are 60 this year including my wife and I am hosting a charity dinner (Grapes for Great Causes) of first growths during the first week in May in Chicago. Other wines included are Petrus, La Mission, d'yquem, Philipponant Clos de Goisses and a Vouvrey. Would you be able to attend as I have Richard Jennings flying out for this?
Jamie.
