I do think the '02 Raffault "Picasses" will benefit from some rest but I'd hardly say you should wait 15 years before even trying it. It's not the friendliest of wines at the moment but, at the price, it has a lot to say for itself.<BR/><BR/>Be sure to let me know if/when you get your blog back into action.David McDuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274955351036700406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-91529978180460627932008-10-22T23:01:00.000-04:002008-10-22T23:01:00.000-04:00David,Long time no chat.

As my note suggests, it's already leaning out and developing some bottle bouquet. Should be interesting to watch over the next 10-15.David McDuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274955351036700406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-65868262838296701752008-10-08T18:28:00.000-04:002008-10-08T18:28:00.000-04:00The '02 Raffault will turn out to as good as the '...The '02 Raffault will turn out to as good as the '89 and '96 in fifteen years.Lyle Fasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10691042953720294290noreply@blogger.com
