Barsac, Graves

Château Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 1989

This is all it’s meant to be. Great deep fruit. Some tar and tobacco and iron and gnarly pure fruit. So complex and involved. A punch of salinity and iodine on the finish. Great — a day ago

Château Pape Clément

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Post dinner party notes. This was really good but paled side by side with the 2015 Mondavi Oakville, which surprised me. Reserved but deep. Soft and mouthcoating. — a month ago

Château Haut-Bergey

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2008

Stubborn and tannic. Fruit integrated and evolved, but will it outlive the bold tannic structure? Dunno. — 14 days ago
