Bordeaux

A perfumed wine, this is full of black fruits that are shot through with acidity. It is bright, soft and only hinting at tannins. This second wine of Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande will develop quickly and become an attractive, fruity wine from 2018.

Barrel Sample. There are plenty of tannins here along with fresh black currant fruits. This wine is structured and firm in the style of a Pauillac. But it also has a softer side, with elegance and light. This wine will develop relatively quickly over the next 10 years. Country: France Region: Bordeaux Appellation: Pauillac Size:…

This is a very solid second wine of Pichon Lalande with blackberry, blueberry and sweet, dried-tobacco character. It’s full-bodied, chewy and polished.

The 2019 Roc De Cambes is deeply colored, powerful wine based on 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, all from the Côtes de Bourg appellation. This fleshy, full-bodied effort has loads of chocolate-covered cherry, blueberry, toasted spice, tobacco, and espresso aromatics, a mouthfilling texture, soft tannins, and a beautiful finish. Already hard to resist, this…

The 2022 Roc de Cambes is stellar. Blackberry, espresso, licorice, menthol, pine and incense open first as this dark, unctuous Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend makes its presence known. A wine of textural resonance and concentration, Roc de Cambes is seriously impressive in 2022. In fact, this is one of the very finest vintages I have tasted….

90-92 A juicy and rich barrel sample with dark-chocolate and berry character. Full body, velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Second wine of Siran.

The style is brought by a Cabernet Sauvignon which expresses its finesse without arrogance. Elegance is to be found everywhere, in the purity of the wine’s flavours, in the delicacy of its texture, while its depth and length are also superb.

A prototypical St.-Julien with a great balance of cassis and brambles with crisp acidity and rather elegant, dry tannins. I love the long, clean finish of this wine. You could drink this now, but should be better from 2019. The second wine of Château Graud-Larose. Country: France Region: Bordeaux Appellation: Saint Julien Size: 750ml Color:…

Freshness and brightness with just a hint of herb to the currant and floral undertones. Medium body, fine tannins and a flavorful finish.
