2010 Château Gruaud Larose Sarget de Gruaud Larose

Another one-off purchase that should have been a case. Purchased on sale in 2017. Terrific wine, particularly for second wine. Dark cherry and some blueberry fruit, BDX bite and very good aromatics including cedar, spice box, leather and tobacco. Well-balanced, though acidity started to dominate more on day 2. Very good value demonstrating why you should buy plenty of second wines in a very good vintage.

Still going strong with intact structure. Velvety fruit-forward rich Merlot. One of my absolute favorite CA merlots.

2015 Tenuta Sette Ponti Crognolo Toscana IGT

Time was very kind to this bottle. Earlier bottles seemed a bit disjointed but this was in a great place. Fruit-forward blend. Tannins fully resolved resulting in a velvety soft Tuscan that earns the “Super” superlative.
