Food & Wine

A little peace and quiet at week's end ...  

Nice as the AL&S is, it isn’t impervious to magnetic fields.

but Lange manual a horse.

Nice but not as nice as an 1815 perpetual chrono . Still hunting my RL PLM

That looks like you have had it in your cellar for a while. Good to go or still good to stay in the cellar. I don't have any Angelus my cellar. Have a great weekend Bill

It's been in more than one cellar actually and shows it's age on the label only. The wine itself is immaculate and fresh. My cellar is loaded with Angelus. My favourite right bank second only to Petrus and Ausone IMHO. Albeit not inexpensive Angelus is at... 

The only thing better than going into your own cellar is being invited into a friend's!

very good vintage for the right bank! My personal favourite affordable st emilion is chateau Figeac. Enjoy your great wine! best

What's your favourite vintage between 1990-2010 in terms of value for quality?

of figeac but the 1998,2001 were drinking beautifully and more than justified their reasonable outlay,in view of today's exagerated prices.

to be honest ive had very few bottles of figeac and would need to check my tasting notes to check vintages, but certainly '98 should be excellent and I find 01's across the board left and right offer great value and can be enjoyed now. Best,

...You know how to treat yourself for a Friday ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

Best wishes Alkiro

last night the Angelus was too good I thought it was a good idea to also drink our house wine (2011 pontet canet). My wife wasn't much help so I'm not moving at light speed today

You should be ok for tomorrow ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

this is a very understated beauty You have good taste sir Cheers Robin

That's high praise coming from you

I dont even know how to describe the substantial-ness of the lange it looks hewn out of a solid gold bar edward

on the wrist. It is a mighty and masculine case. Not a sleek dress watch, but an impressive, highly accurate oberservation watch that can be dressed up when needed. After 7 years of ownership the love only grows stronger. Now I need the enamel PLM Thanks ...
