  • Hello everyone. I have almost completed my tastings of the 2021 in bottles. There will be no more big surprises (Petrus not tasted). Basically, even if this vintage is not at the level of 2016, 18, 19, 20 and 22. To my taste it is very often superior to 2014 and 2017 in any case. It is very particular with enormous finesse and above all a precision in defining each terroir that is rarely achieved. A school model if you want to introduce your future alcoholic children. And for old people like me :O), the advantage is that it will be drinkable much faster than its elders. Since I'm swamped with work these days, I only put my best notes. For a rating of a particular wine, do not hesitate to write to me;

    1 Lafleur 98-99
    2 Carmes H-B 98
    3 Haut-Brion, Cheval Blanc, Vieux Certan, Margaux, Lafite 97
    4 Montrose, Las Cases, Le Pin 96-97

    And finally the Oscar for best value for money

    Laroque 94-95

  • (96-98 vvPunkte) 50% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc. Rubinrot, strahlender Glanz. Was für eine schöne Nase, noch einen Tick komplexer als bei La Mission, rote und dunkle Beeren, florale Töne die mich an Veilchen erinnern, ein herrlicher Duft, dazu kommen Tee und Kräuternoten, faszinierendes Aromenspiel. Der Gaumen ist hochelegant, zeigt noch etwas mehr Druck und Kraft als La Mission, doch keinerlei Schwere, ungemein präzis, frisch und lebendig, die Tannine sind von höchster Güte, alles ist an seinem Platz. Im Abgang langanhaltend und sehr frisch. Eine wahre Freude. 2025-2050 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château La Mission Haut-Brion) vvWine.ch
