Two Unassuming Bordeaux Bottles

1993 Domaine Les Chagnasses
From a magnum. This Lalande-de-Pomerol sports a low keyed, mature nose with notes of autumn leaves, vintage leather, plums and coffee.
The taste is nice and dry with lots of autumn flavours, soft tannins and a medium long finish. 
87p   (tasted 2024/10)


2012 Château Croque Michotte
An open, herbal nose with notes of cranberries, violets, smoke and hints of Seville oranges. Very good.
The taste is cool and medium bodied with a fine balance, some warmth and a spicy finish. A very nice drink.
87p   (tasted 2024/10)
