Saturday, August 13, 2022 - Battle of the best: Abreu Cappella 2013, Seven Stones 2012 and Chateau Pavie 2009. All were excellent and I will rate them the same. Brad Grimes is one of the best winemakers out there. His wines are consistent and I really love his style; full-bodied and translucent. Seven Stones 2012 is still going strong. I rated it highly upon release and it has maintained its energy, tension and full flavors. Pavie took the most time to come around and when it did, it was awesome. I don't know if it is in a shut down phase or not because I am not an expert on Bordeaux but it did come around.
It was a fun night!
