Château Trotanoy

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

This was youthful that is just beginning to enter its drinking window, silky, polished on the palate with hidden tannins showing dark fruits, plum, cassis, graphite, mocha, spice & tobacco — 16 hours ago

Clos Fourtet

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Neus: Verleidelijke aroma’s van zwart fruit zoals cassis en zwarte kers, aangevuld met tonen van cederhout, sigarenkistje, en een vleugje chocolade.

@TheMillenRotterdam

Smaak: Vol en zijdezacht, met rijpe tannines die structuur en elegantie bieden. De smaken van pruim, truffel en kruiden zijn prachtig verweven met minerale accenten en subtiele houttonen.

Afdronk: Lang en gelaagd, met een aanhoudende frisheid en verfijnde tannines.

Château Pavie

Saint-Èmilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Christmas Eve dinner with ribeye steak. What a wine! Lovely aromatic of ripe blue fruit, crushed stone, leather baseball gloves. Almost black color. About as perfect a wine as I have had. Blue and black ripe fruit, softened edges but powerful tannins. Perfectly matched acidity. Structured brilliantly. Graphite, stone, hint of menthol, licorice. Nice medium + finish. Perfect wine yet still so youthful, many, many years left. Will wait a few years before opening another bottle. — 2 days ago

Château Fleur Cardinale

Grand Cru Classé Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Picked up a 2012 at Wine House for $60 on 12/21/2024

One of the best wines I’ve tasted all year especially in the sub $100 price range

Smells like fertilizer and funk (in a good way) but tastes like blackberries and cherries with hints of soil

Château Figeac

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1998

Opened and double-decanted several hours prior to service; enjoyed over the course of three hours. The 1998 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with beautiful, ripe red cherries and a total smoke show in the earth department, giving me an impression of iron-rich earth from an Alpine forest floor. Wonderful stuff. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose with the ferrous earth notes doubling down. The finish is long. I would like to have more Figeac in my life. Drink now after a whole heap of air or through 2068. — 10 days ago

Château Cheval Blanc

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1993

Label was gone so you'll all just have to believe me that this was a Cheval blanc 🤣. Very far along with leather, mushroom and forest floor flavours. Great wine from a poor vintage — 5 days ago

Château Pavie Macquin

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2017

Heady aromas of dark fruits and graphite. Tannins are developing nicely and soft enough after a 2 hour decent to drink easily. — a day ago
