| Community Tasting Notes (average 92 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 9 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by chatters on 8/4/2022: Coravin fun - Talbot: From Coravin. slight green apple and apple skin, gooseberry, grass, creamy leesy notes. Medium plus intensity acidity strays towards sour, grass, apple skin, saline notes, a little woody texture, creamy and leesy notes. Long with the non-intrusive alcohol warmth helping to carry the finish. Okay. (934 views) | | | Tasted by vincentnip on 2/11/2021 & rated 95 points: 深黃，濃花香，聞有特殊香味，濃水果味。
有種陳年白葡萄酒的味道。 (1481 views) | | | Tasted by chatters on 11/24/2020: Coravin fun - Talbot (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Aromas of gooseberry, cats piss, nettle with a little lime leaf and lime peel as well as a smidge of apple. In the mouth it has medium plus intensity acidity with similar flavours, a little almond bitterness on the finish. Yum. (1624 views) | | | Tasted by Kirk Grant on 1/5/2020: A deep golden hue in the glass, this has a rich nose full of dried pineapple, candied ginger, and sea spray. The palate is rich, full bodied, and leads with intense flavors of ripe pear, honeydew melon, honeycomb, and pineapple. The winery's website notes that this is a blend of 78% Sauvignon Blanc and 22% Semillon. To me the Semillon is more dominant and the richness of this really stands out, in a positive way. This is one of those wines I bought on a whim to try, and will have to head back to find more when I can. Outstanding!! (1980 views) | | | Tasted by chatters on 12/14/2019: From Coravin. Aromas of gooseberry, honey, Granny Smith apple, a slight saline, seaside note, a little sweet spice. In the mouth it's juicy, fleshy, honeyed, similar other flavours to the nose as well. Long. Rather lovely. (1919 views) | | | Tasted by englishman's claret on 8/18/2019 & rated 91 points: Very ripe, tropical, sauvignon blanc dominated nose. Pretty impressive fruit volume with a bit of saline minerality that helps keep this fresh. This is very nice, but it's drinking well now and not a wine to hold I should think. (2122 views) | | | Tasted by Battersea James on 1/27/2019 & rated 90 points: Very vibrant and fresh upfront with a hint of candied melon following through. Medium length. Very enjoyable. (981 views) | | | Tasted by chatters on 11/3/2018: Coravin fun - Ready to drink (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Fresh cut grass, gooseberry, a little cream cheese and a smidge of green apple and lime. On the palate a little passion fruit curd as well. Nice fresh, finishes a little warm. (1264 views) |

History of Bordeaux
History of 1855 Bordeaux Classification
"2009 is all about ripeness, with wines impressively packed with ripe fruit and high alcohol levels. They are showy, in-your-face, and full of pleasure. The 2010s have the fruit and alcohol levels of the 2009s, but with a compelling freshness on the finish that balances the fruit and provides a perfect sense of structure." - Ben Nelson
"2016 is a landmark vintage in certain spots of Bordeaux and it should be remembered as one of the most inspired campaigns of the last 40-50+ years." -Jon Rimmerman
"The quality of red Bordeaux in 2016 was universally lauded – although the response to the en primeur campaign was muted. Quantity was high too, with the equivalent of 770 million bottles of wine produced. An exceptionally dry summer with cool nights eventually, thanks to mid September rain, resulted in small, thick-skinned, ripe grapes, and the wines are marked by high tannin and acidity, with superb aromatic fragrance." - Jancis Robinson
"2017 was complicated, but there are some excellent wines. Expect plenty of freshness and drinkability from wines that will offer excellent value, and others that will rival 2016 in terms of ripeness and ageability. But they are likely to be the exception not the rule, making careful selection key." - Jane Anson
"In the past, a vintage such as 2022 may have been overripe, raisined and low in acidity but 2022 had a sneaky little reservoir in its back pocket - a near perfect marriage of cool/cold/rain the previous winter and the previous vintage that literally soaked the soils (a key to why 2022 is not 2003...or 1893)." - Jon Rimmerman |
