For a few days, the house becomes a guest house – nothing Spanish – for Murielle prepared 99 % of the meals and my cellar supplied the wines – except those 2 bottles we drank at the house during the en primeur campaign. I said drank, for they were not intended to be tasted, but drank:
Screaming Eagle 2002, ripe Cabernet Sauvignon. I have rarely the opportunity to drink some in Bordeaux.
Le Pin 2000, the nose had a rare power. Merlot, there’s nothing like it !
For the rest, below the list (thanks Catherine). Some great bottles only waiting for the right opportunity to be drank:
