Friday, July 16, 2021 - 2021 Bordeaux Tasting Trip; 7/12/2021-7/16/2021 (Bordeaux): A tasting in Bordeaux of 71 wines, some of the best I have ever had and others, umm, well were disappointing. If you read the Tasting story (and my grading history) I think it will do a much better job putting this in perspective.

I was very much looking forward to my St Estephe tastings. While unfair to discount St Estephe based on Cos and Calon Segur tastings, it has certainly made it take a back seat and won’t search it out until I get to taste a great vintage from one of the estates, from my inventory or elsewhere (finally I saved money by not having to double up previous orders after the fact).

Tasted at the chateau:
2015 Chateau Capbern
2015 Le Marquis de Calon Segur
2015 Calon Segur

Not familiar with the wine or St Estephe but perhaps it needs time but as of now it is under delivering even for a wine in this price range.
