TN: Cahors and Cbuttoulet, plus '90 Meyney Sender: Ian Salut-Hi Dale, le-on 14 Feb 2005 13:32:55 -0800, tu disais-you said:- Hope all is well with them. Surprise surprise! Primo Palatum is a very interesting idea. I'll leave it to Michael Tommasi to tell you all about them (I don't remember the details, but was impressed when I met some of the wines 6 years ago), but iirc, the people behind it define exactly what they want to be done, using what grapes and techniques. I wonder if it isn't in fact much closer to being traditional Cahors than Lagrezette, which is all about image. As it happens, I opened two bottles of 1994 Ch la Caminade Clos de la Commandery on Friday, and they were showing very nicely indeed. I could have chosen the '96 but reckoned it would be quite a long way off ready. However, if I had been serving wine WITH a cbuttoulet, I might well have chosen the more tannic wine, as cutting better through the richness of the dish. Of the three wines you drank, which went best in your opinion? -- All the Best Ian Hoare mailbox full to avoid spam. try me at website
