2023 Vineyard Estates Silverboom Special Reserve
3/22/2024 - nwinther wrote: 88 Points
Dark, brilliant color with plenty of black fruit on the nose. Rich palate with notes of mint, dark fruits and dried herbs. Medium finish.
An easy drinker and crowd pleaser that can hold its own against most red meats, lamb or bbq.
Probably won't improve with age, but can easily keep for 5+ years.
Impressive result from a wine that is produced in the hundreds of thousands or even millions of bottles.

2004 Château Gruaud Larose

Nice colour with beginning brick on the rim.
Nose is fantastic with that buttermilk notion that give away great Bordeaux.
The palate, however, is extremely disappointing. Muted fruit and some tired secondary notes with a modest finish. Not dead, but rather exhausted.
Drink now.

2016 Château Pesquié Ventoux Terrasses

Brilliant ruby with some transpancy. Blackberries on the nose with some garrique and mint.
Palate is structured with dark berries, plenty of acid still, a Terasses in its prime. Some marcipan on the medium finish. Will keep for another 5 years.
