Pepper, oak, black current and a bit of cassis. Soft chewy tannin. Would want to try in several years. — 5 months ago

Château Bessan

Cuvée Excellence Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

Barnyard funk to open, which softens with breathing. Black raspberry and boisenberry fruit. Vanilla and tobacco in the background. On the palate, there is a firm tannin backbone with raspberry and blackberry fruit carrying forward. Finishes well. Solid wine, better with 30+ minutes of breathing. — 6 years ago

La Dame de Malescot

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2018

2018 vintage. Second wine of Cru Classé Malescot Saint-Exupéry. Charming nose with ripe black cherries, raspberry jam and some floral hints. This medium-bodied, fruit-driven Margaux is drinking well already with silky tannin and good length. Not very complex, but a very charming wine indeed. Abv. 14%. Good value at less than half the price of the Grand Vin, even if I would rate the less expensive La Tour de Bessan (tasted alongside) higher. — 2 years ago

Château de Villegeorge

Cru Bourgeois Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

To fully understand the Lurton family one needs to be a professional genealogist, but if you meet a Lurton in Bordeaux it would be safe to bet she/he is involved in wine business. Marie-Laure is one of the 10 children of Lucien Lurton, and she owns Chateau de Villegeorge in Haut-Médoc and Tour de Bessan in Margaux. Villegeorge 2010 is blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (79%) and Merlot (21%). Attractive nose of cassis, cedar wood and violets. Still plenty of very ripe fruit at 10 years old, good concentration and length. Fine value today at 28 euro. — 4 years ago

Marie-Laure Lurton

La Tour de Bessan Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

Very fruit forward. Raspberry and mint with earthy herbals after. Medium tannin and fill bodied. Nose is heavy on Cabernet, almost like a Napa. Plums, graphite, and even salt on the nose? Very good. — 7 years ago
