    January 13, 2024 - Chiefs beat the Dolphins. So great wine!

    October 12, 2023 - This leans quite traditional...even in such a ripe vintage. Cabernet Sauvignon shows prominently, even though, apparently, only 30 percent of the blend, accentuated by fleshy and velvety Merlot. Judicious oak treatment, low alcohol, quality finish. 91-92.

    June 29, 2023 - Dark red. Well structured red. Red fruit, granite and graphite, licorice, savoury touch, wood finish. Classic dry tannins, medium short finish. Great with spicy food.

    April 9, 2023 - Three 2018 Left Bank Wines: Tasted over a long afternoon and evening, alongside the same vintage d'Issan.

    This traditionally styled, distinctively Left Bank, exceptionally well balanced, 13 abv offering, tore gaping holes in the notion that Classed Growth offerings represent higher quality by default.

    Blackcurrant, pyrazines, graphite, savory herbs, and mineral ores show prominently on the bouquet and palate. Medium plus acid, medium tannin, integrating oak. Wines of the Left Bank earth, such as this, particularly from such a ripe vintage, at once satisfy, and create hope that the ancient ways will not be forgotten by all.

    I scored this and the d'Issan 92 points, for very different reasons. In QPR, however, the Margaux was never in the race. Always rewarding to find such Old School gems.

    February 25, 2023 - Strikingly impressive for such a warm vintage, particularly at 13 abv. It features better sense of place and rusticity than several 2018 Classed Growths. Likely to evolve and improve over the next several years. 91-92.
