Château Lassègue

Saint Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2017

Deep ruby. Aromas of blackberry, licorice, earthy and herbs. Fantastic structure to this Bordeaux. Black fruits that go on for a while with a tannic finish.

Middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Château Léoville Barton

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2002

Medium ruby , quite wide garnet rim, clear and bright . Cassis , blackberry , sous bois , mint , cedar , grafite , good clarity and surprisingly fruit driven still . Good volume on the palate , dark fruits , mint , good acidity and still quite gritty tannins. Saline and grafite tinged finish . Good length . Drinking very well now and over the next 5 years . For 2002 this is showing very well, classic and surprisingly elegant, a really nice surprise! — 17 days ago

Domaine Dujac

Morey Saint Denis Pinot Noir 2009

Found this simple yet apt note online: Pure, incredibly densely concentrated with crystalline fruit, and silky, satin-like tannins. This is wonderfully long, and, although a mere village wine, carries the calibre of its domaine on full display. — 8 days ago

Château de Saint-Cosme

Gigondas Red Rhone Blend 2021

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of three days. Best on Day 3. The 2021 pours, a deep ruby color with medium+ viscosity and moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with gorgeous notes of black and red bramble fruit, red and purple flowers, black pepper, garrigue, dried herbs, rocky earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose where the pepper plays an even greater role. The finishes long and the texture is silky smooth. The high alcohol is almost imperceptible. On Day 1, this was good but not particularly interesting (though the quality was clearly there). After significant air, this blossomed into a really compelling Gigondas; full of character! Best after 2026 and through 2036+. — 9 days ago

Ultreia Saint Jacques Mencía 2020

NOSE: A little European funk, flowers (violet?), sweet nutmeg, granite, dark berries.

TASTE: juicy berry, baking spices, a little earthy funk. Basically a juicy berry version of the nose, 90.

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2018

Nose presents as unripe blue fruit, palate gives cherry and herbs. All gauges read "Medium". Definitely ready now for full enjoyment. Alc may be Med+. Finish is delicious and very long. This is a great wine.
