Well balanced blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Better wait a few more years before drinking.

I have had 5 pr 6 bottles of this over the last 18-months and have experienced a great deal of variability bottle to bottle. When this is right it is really very good. The bottle tonight felt a little past its prime. Great mouth feel but just a bit of that burnt prune on the palate that felt over baked to me. Wine was begging for food and I enjoyed it more with some very sharp cheddar. If you have some I would enjoy them. Not a bottle I am going to seak out going forward. I have had a bunch of fun following this bottle over the last couple years. Think I have one or two left and will drink before the year is out. Stay tuned!

.375 - first night was fairly straightforward. Dark fruit some vanilla. One glass left for day 2 after a night in the fridge. Not great. Wood, plum and alcohol stick out. This needs a lot of time. I have hope for the future tho.

Wine of our Florida trip graciously brought by Mark1npt to our Marco Island condo. Served alongside a 14 Malescot St Exupery, 15 Dominio de Aguila Reserva and a Mayback Cab. Clearly the best wine by far. Classic Old World Bordeaux nose of cedar, leather, tobacco, cassis & forest floor. Modern Bordeaux but packed with structure & flavor. Probably the most accessible 05 Left Bank I’ve had so far. This was so opulent and open for business. Thank you Mark for sharing this amazing bottle. It was one of the best LB’s I’ve had in a long time,

1989 Château Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more

4/29/2024 - Silver Thunder wrote: 97 points

No decant. Popped and tasted every 15min. It was ready in 20mins. We also tasted La Mission Haut Brion and Chateau Client all 1989. Also 1995 Chateau Palmer and 2005 Chateau Rauzan-Gassies. The Haut Brion and C. Palmer took the night easily. The Haut Brion was gloriously subtle but still had a complex boutique of flavors! Notes of black tea, cherry, prune, jasmine, and some capsicum. There was a hint of flint, soy sauce, leather, and truffle. One of the longest finishes for a wine I've tasted in a while. Great classic and will pop another in a couple of months. A prodigy vintage!

1961 Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more

4/29/2024 - rnellans wrote: 96 points

Cru Crew Wine dinner hosted by Brad England (Mara restaurant at the Four Seasons hotel in Minneapolis, MN.): Served alongside '61 Latour, Lafite, Latour and Petrus in a tasting/dinner preceeded by 19 vintages of Ramonet Montrachet. Needless to say, my palate may not be 100% up to par. This wine seems different from previous bottles of this I have tasted. Very interesting nose and palate. I think that there may be a slight flaw in the wine, but certainly didn't detract from the enjoyment, but rather may have increased it. Dark fruit, tobacco, smoke with a 'sweet/sour' component to both the nose and palate. Long finish. Second in flight to the Latour imo.

Hmmh - thought this wine had more tertiary notes (cooked/conserved fruit, mushroomy notes) than expected. Might not have been optimally cellared over the past 12 years though...

4/28/2024 - snamnoum@gmail.com wrote: 89 points

A solid value white Bordeaux for pairing with food.

Citrusy and tropical nose of bergamot, lime, grapefruit, sour apple candy, kiwi, gooseberry, and green mango.

On the palate the wine has prickly acidity but medium weight from the semillon. Finish is grippy and long.

Sunday hangout (Chicago, IL): Absolutely loved this -- it needs a little bit of air to get going, but it's so exuberant and delicious this is great from the get-go. Just that perfect balance of cabernet franc perfume, but with none of the ashy greenness on the palate either. Generous fruit but not overwhelmingly so, and plenty of black-fruited weight here. Very approachable and enjoyable now, though clearly not a wine that will suffer for aging.

A WTSO special

Color. Rich yellow/green

Nose. Green melon, baked apple, white flowers.

Palate. Rich and creamy. Not like a Chardonnay. The semillon character really shines through. Lemons and wax and soft spices. The finish isn't terribly long. It's a yummy wine.

4/28/2024 - NMSteve Likes this wine: NR

Terrific. Drinking very young. As usual for this cuvee there’s a pretty good balance between sauvignon blanc and semillon character with the SB tending to be more flamboyant and forward and the semillon hanging back a little. Plenty of spine/acidity to this making it a great match with rich seafood. Where these wines really shine is with the right food match. 4- (out of 5).

3/24/2024 - SouthernStateofMind wrote: NR

Five (5) years since last visit. Decanted three (3) hours. Concur with "PPMM's" observations. Presents a lighter version than prior experience as oak has subsided significantly. Distinct herbal aroma is accompanied with muted aromas of lemon, apricot, pineapple, coconut & vanilla. Rounded with honeyed texture on the palate; ripe fruit is measured against lively acidity that leads to long satisfying finish. Drinking beautifully now and should do so for the foreseeable future.

Deep colour. Magnificent nose.
Dry, high tannins that are well integrated. High acid.
Oak, chocolate, dark fruit.
Still very young but absolutely delicious on its own or with aged ribeye steak as in this case.
