2016 Château Figeac

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend more

11/17/2019 - jbroich Likes this wine: 98 points

Splendid young wine, intense color, a perfume that blows you away, very fruity with a hint of licorice, on the palate very opulent with a whiff of banana behind raspberry and blueberry and some sour cherry. Should wait a couple of years with the next bottles, but this wine in its initial fruit phase is very tempting.

Rather dark for a pinot, crimson red. Incredible nose, no comparison to more classical earlier vintages, leather, yes, leather, sweet berries, sandalwood, sur bois. On the palate, very powerful, strong but ripe tannins, sweet berries. 100 pts in the making, probably in ten years, need to buy more bottles of this very scarce vintage

2010 Lucien Le Moine Meursault 1er Cru Porusot

Chardonnay more

1/12/2020 - jbroich Likes this wine: 94 points

Deep gold color, when swirling it seems that the wine has a rather frozen or gooey quality, similar to a Sauternes, however, this is not due to residual sugar, as this is a dry wine with, I would guess, less than 4gr res sugar.

In the nose lime, brioche, hints of butter and a saline note, after some time a whiff of green banana and then more intense lime and a bit of bitter orange zest. Like a Heymann Löwenstein 2006 Uhlen R but with less sweetness and more acidity.

On the palate, absolutely marvelous, oily, buttery mouthfeel, brioche, lime and apricot with some chalky undertone. Unfortunately, this was my last bottle. Will try to buy more, as this wine should hold easily another 10+ years

The wine was almost crimson colored. The legs were medium. There was only very light sediment in the bottle. It smells like raspberry, a little bit red currant, minor traces of blueberry and, surprisingly, orange, faint traces of plum, mushroom, pine, nutmeg and an overtone of pistachio. on the palate: prune, fig, blackberry, red currant and raspberry. The body is medium. The wine has smooth texture.

this is a very wine, let us see how it evolves on day 2

... Perfect wine to forget the Riesling Jihadists and their moronic reaction on vintage criticism.

This wine will surely develop nicely over the next 40+ years. Dark, opaque color. Intense nose of plums, mulberries, black cherry, jasmine and a whiff of licorice. 150 seconds finish. Spectacular on the palate, almost identical to bouquet but with a touch of cedar. Well structured, apparently high alcohol which you do not taste, far from being hot. Absolutely phantastic. got to buy much more

Opaque ruby color. Incense, cedar and blueberry nose. On the palate almost meaty, with strong laurel, cedar and blueberry and meat. Gorgeous wine developed nicely over 10 hours. Needs probably another 5-8 years to maturity. With 3 hours in the decanter already great, can ultimately become 98-100.

Although this wine has been receiving extraordinary praise and 100 scores in a row, on day 1 this wine showed a lot of potential but was not a great wine to drink. Yeast and vegetable notes were predominant, on the palate vibrant but lacking focus. Let us wait for day 2.

Opaque. Blueberry, mulberry, Wild cherry, cedar nose. On the palate blueberry, cedar and faint idea of raspberry. Superb for 2 hours then it closed down, excellent on Day 2. tannins will require a few years to integrate.

Magic. After three years since my last bottle which was subdued, this bottle was absolutely fascinating. A wine that was too sweet five years ago had developed a sublime minerality and a pronounced acidity. Grapefruit and peach on the palate and a whiff of banana and exotic spices.

still too young but had to try one on release. This is a majestic wine, probably the best Uhlen so far. Yellow fruit in the nose, a lot of vibrance and energy, highly mineralic. On the palate sheer magic. Will follow over the next 72 hours...

I knew that the wine is still too young, but I had to taste a bottle and did not regret it. Immediately after opening the bottle the nose was stunning. Very etheral, notes of cherry, a little bit of plum and a heavy, almost dusty and mossy component. On the palate the wine had a surprisingly sweet note, cherry and plum marmalade. After three hours of aeration the wine was showing great. Will drink the next bottle in three years.
