March 17, 2024 - Mauve opaque dont les larmes trahissent ces 14.5% d'alcool. Au nez, bleuet, fruit mauves, un peu de chocolat. On ne ressent pas trop l'élevage. En bouche, tannins bien présent, corps voluptueux et bonne acidité. Ce vins ne fait pas dans la finesse mais est tout de même intéressant.

April 2, 2023 - Better with age, and QPR pretty good, but no reason to wait on this one.

NV Drappier Carte d*Or Champagne (1 magnum) - 90p
My last tasting note on CT dates back to 2013 (!). Brilliant Pinot Noir based apero (75% PN, 15% Chardonnay, 10% Meunier) with 7g/L dosage.
2021 Schloss Johannisberg Riesling Gelblack trocken (4 bottles) - 90p
I tried all Gelblack vintages since 2013 and this is imo the best one since 2015. Creamy and highly mineralic Riesling with peaches and salty herbs.
2017 Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon Innisfree (2 bottles) - 90p
3h decant. Purple, dark red colour. Lovely dark red/black berries, oak, tobacco, tarragon, and dark chocolate.
2010 Château Les Ormes (2 bottles) - 93p
2h decant. WOTN for everyone (except my father).5 years ago I rated this wine 90+p and it has developed nicely since then. Smooth and elegant St. Julien, classy and lovely! -

December 18, 2022 - Nice on the nose and deep purple in colour. Dry, very full bodied, medium to medium low acidity and medium high tannic. On the palate lots of blackberry and just a little bit of vanilla, so definitely a rather fruit forward Cabernet with primarily fruity characteristics, the oak influence is still there though. Finish was medium but nice, also more so dominated by blackberry. Decanting for an hour is recommended. Cheers :) . At 5 years of age definitely way more years it can be stored for.
