1998 Château Troplong MondotSt. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/24/2018 - henryd1 wrote: 91 pointsStill quite youthful. Drinking nicely in a classic claret sort of way. A very nice and quite classy wine, but nothing spectacular. Served with fresh black truffles on toast but not quite mature enough for the combination to work optimally, though there was a touch of truffle in the flavour profile.

1999 Château MargauxRed Bordeaux Blend more |
11/21/2018 - Fred_Bo Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis was just a huge joy. Very feminine and light compared to the big brawny Pauillacs enjoyed earlier that night. Notes of black fruit, cassis, blueberry, hints of lavender, eucalyptus, pencil shaving, dark chocolate and flint. Velvety, silky, airy and polished, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, very fine tannin.

2015 Carlisle Syrah Papa's BlockRussian River Valley more |
4/9/2018 - SineQuaNon Likes this wine: 93 pointsSpectacular Papa’s syrah showing a more savoury, meaty side of this vineyards characteristics than the 2014. I almost think it’s even better for it despite what the vintage charts might say. Less exuberantly fruity but more ‘dark’, smoky, savoury all the while it is just a plain joy to drink with great richness, body and surplus. Soft tannins, full body, long finish, with notes from both the Côte-Rôtie and the New World combining for a remakable wine full of character while being very easy to appreciate. A great Papa’s!

2016 Château Rauzan-SéglaMargaux Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/29/2017 - Jeff Leve wrote: 97 pointsDeep in color with violets and licorice that take no effort to find, this wine is luxurious and concentrated and feels like ripe black fruits polished with velvet. There is a sweetness combined with a quintessence of fruit that will send your mind to Bordeaux no matter where you take your first sip. The wine was produced from blending 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot, reaching 13.5% alcohol with a pH of 3.6 and is aged in 60% new, French oak barrels for 18 months before bottling. The harvest took place from September 20 to October 4 for the Merlot and from October 10 to October 15 for the Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine represents only 50% of the harvest.

1964 Château Haut-BrionPessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more |
2/19/2017 - englishman's claret wrote: 93 pointsHaut Brion & La Mission Haut Brion: I had high hopes for the 64 Haut Brion and although it showed well, it wasn't spectacular. The 64 La Mission gave a much stronger showing on the night and ultimately, if all the 64 HBs are like this, they are probably best served on their own. The wine has the classic Haut Brion black cherry though the fruit is now getting a tad attenuated. There is a marked toffee note and touches of loam and smoke. This was beautifully balanced on the palate (when is Haut-Brion not?) and finished well, but it's time to drink these. |

2015 Château MontroseSt. Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/19/2016 - Jeff Leve wrote: 95 pointsShowing a good depth of color, the tobacco, cassis, boysenberry and spice-filled aromatics are hard to avoid. Full-bodied and concentrated, there is a lot of power and tannin to contend with this year. It's going to take time for this wine to become civilized. The finish packs a large bushel of ripe, sweet fruit and flavor along with tannins in every mouthful. Representing 36% of the production, the blend consists of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc. This wine reached 13.4% alcohol with a pH of 3.6 and the harvest took place between September 15 and October 8. Montrose which is on top of its game these days can fool you. It can be a bit hard to get a read on some vintages in their youth, making it is quite possible this wine could end up much better when it is in bottle. It would not be the first time that happened. I can tell you that from personal experience. 94 - 96 Pts |

7/10/2016 - SineQuaNon wrote: 93 pointsGreat, great wine - especially after one hour of breathing, that really rounds it out! Combining the best of unctuous German Spätburgunder character with classic Burgundy Pinot Noir elegance. Almost creamy mouthfeel, bright acidity and lift, cherry and rose petal notes with additional slight herbaciousness and herbal notes with well integrated woodsmoke.
