This is actually really not a bad drop. Can’t remember where I bought it, but it is absolutely a good purchase. I am pretty sure I bought it at EDEKA. — 2 months ago

2019 vintage. Previous owner Alain Mouiex (also Château Fonroque) sold this tiny (less than 3 hectares) estate to the owners of Château Sansonnet, Cadet Soutard, Villemaurine and Harmonie in 2015, the Lefévère family. Tasting this excellent 2019, it seems that Marie-Bénédicte Lefévère is doing a great job here. Made from 100% Merlot, it is lush and restrained at the same time. Ripe, layered fruit, fresh acidity, and a distinctive minerality make the 14,5% alcohol go unnoticed. Excellent value too, highly recommended. — 5 months ago

2020 vintage. The last vintage for this wine as it was bought from the Bécot family ( owners of Beauséjour-Bécot) by the owners of Haut-Brion in 2021. It will be incorporated into Château Quintus (which is a merger of 3 estates: Tertre-Daugay, L'Arrosée and Grand-Pontet). Many Saint-Emilion estates disappeared, incorporated into other estates, some very good wines sadly disappeared like Curé Bon La Madeleine (now into Canon), Cadet-Piola (now into Soutard) and so on. The fact that Grand Cru Classés can legally be incorporated into Premier Grands Crus Classés tells you that you have to take the classification with more than a grain of salt. A bit shy on the nose, even after a few hours. Medium-bodied, nice value for a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé. — 2 years ago

Mouton Rothschild on a budget! Dollar for dollar it's truly special. Find me a better wine for $15. — 3 months ago

Excellent! It took very little time to breathe which was unexpected for a 2011. We will be buying more of this if we can find it. — 7 months ago

2018 vintage. A more flashy, extracted style compared to stable mates Villemaurine and Sansonnet, but very well done. — 3 months ago

Last evening we opened the 2018 Château Soutard-Cadet. A Right Bank Bordeaux from Saint-Emilion. Bottled at Château Sansonnet a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.

On the nose there is juicy dark black fruit black cherry, blackberry, black plum, blueberry, vanilla, allspice, violets and wet damp earth.

On the palate there is black cherry, blackberry, black plum, cassis, camphor, cedar, sandalwood, chocolate and rich dark earth.

This is a full bodied wine with a smooth velvety mouthfeel medium +acidity and racy medium+ tannins with some grip that moves nicely into a long rich dark fruit and woodsy finish. The weekend looks to be cold here and we will, I am sure, have some more red wines. Have a great weekend and please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 2 years ago
