Floral nese. Litt krydder og kirsebær i munn. Litt hardere enn classico. Mere kjerne frukt. Trenger tid. 90

Très belle syrah de ce domaine encore une fois,
j`adore cette cuvée, la qualité est toujours au rendez-vous.
Nez sur la tapenade, la fumée et les fruits noirs.
En bouche, bacon et mures surtout avec du poivre blanc
et des minéraux.
Finale bien longue et somptueuse.
Excellent.

    I love this vintage, quality is always at the rendezvous.
    Nose on tapenade, smoke and black fruits.
    In the mouth, bacon and blackberries especially with white pepper
    and minerals.
    Final very long and sumptuous.
    Excellent.

Decanted for two hours. The intense blackberry, dried tobacco, dried earth, blood orange zest, hope chest and chocolate pudding nose is stunning in its own right. A salient entry and a round, polished middle palate. There's depth to ponder and terroir to enjoy. Lay this First-Growth of St. Julien down for awhile. Without a doubt this has a nose that will be indelible.
Drink 2024 -.

1998 Château Lanessan

 Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend more

10/15/2016 - "Rhône Rider" Likes this wine: 89 points

1998 Ch. Lanessan. Vanskelig kork som brakk i to og den nedre delen ville ta seg et bad oppi flaska. Jeg hadde ikke mot til å bruke karaffel, noe som muligens var en liten tabbe pga mye bunnfall. Oransjerød med vandig kant. Tobakk, lær og tørre bær på nese. Litt støvete munn med jord, tobakk, tørket frukt. Helt moden, trolig litt forbi peak. Litt tynn åpning, men drar virkelig på utover smakskurven. Solid mellomparti og lang fruktsyrlig og tobakkspreget avslutning. Tålte fint 1,5 time i glasset og fikk bort litt støv med luft. Ikke like sprek aom 1999, men jøsses så mye glede for 300 spenn. 89p (mine Lanessan-erfaringer rangert: 2010, 1999, 1998, 2011 og 1979).

Popped and pored on Thursday night had a small glass - was sort of shut down in need of air. On Friday I decanted the rest of bottle for about 2 hours. It opened up some but I don't think this is ready to drink. We are huge Taurasi fans and this one was just not showing that much in terms of flavors or aromas - big alcohol and tannins yes - will let the other bottles lie down for another few years before trying again.

3/24/2015 - "Rhône Rider" Likes this wine: 91 points

1983 Ch. Talbot ( St. Julien)- (6/7) - 4th Cru
Rød med brunrød kant.
Fin frukt med plenty fjøsaromaer og litt blyantspiss. Med en lett eim av kokt kål i bakgrunnen mistenker jeg at denne har en begynnende korkfeil. Munnen er frisk, kompleks med masse sekundær/tertiæraromaer. Lite tanniner igjen. Hult mellomparti men kommer forsiktig tilbake med litt fiken. 91 p

    5/6/2015 11:45:00 PM - Translated (not google):
    Red with brownish edge.
    Nice Fruit aromas with some barnyard and pencil led. With a faint smell of cooked cabbage I suspect this had a starting cork fault. Fresh mouth-feeling, complex with plenty of tertiary aromas. Few tannin left. A bit hollow mid section, but comes gently back with dry fruits an a long finish.

Dyp rød, litt oransje kant.
Mørke bær, blyantspiss og lær. Tight, ungdommelig og frisk. Fin kompleksitet med flere lag. 92p

    5/3/2015 11:40:00 PM - It was decanted for about that time. Still youthful. What suprises me is that the quality of this was so good, just 6 years after Mr. Comme took over the wine making. I havent tasted that many vintages, but understand this wine has got first growth scores since the 2003 vintage.

Solbær, plommer, vanilje og litt kaffe. Fin konsentrasjon, kompleksitet og lengde, men jeg synes den mangler friskhet og eleganse. Føles litt for moden/kokt.

Seriøst mye pepper og jordtoner, men fin frukt i bakgrunnen og flotte spenstige tanniner. Godt kjøp på halvflaske.
