Château Pauillac
Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Réserve de la Comtesse Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2018
Château Pédesclaux
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2016
On nose, violets, wild berries, leather, black cherry,
On palate, its soft with medium intensity, still quite tannic consider it as wine from 2016, i got the fruit notes like plums, black cherry, earthy, more on merlot character. 48% Carbenet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, Petit Verdot 4%, Carbenet Franc 3% — 19 days ago
Château Batailley
Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
A very good left bank classed growth (5th growth) from a good vintage. Cabernet Sauvignon dominant aromatics (74%). Blackcurrant and cedar - a little tomato bush. A good wine but to state the obvious does not have the class and complexity of the higher classed growths. For example 3rd growth 2009 Chateau Palmer is a stunning wine - very rich, complex with a long life in front of it - very much superior to Chateau Batailley. — 5 days ago
Lacoste-Borie
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2019
Nice for a pop n’ pour. Decent QPR. Blackberry, tobacco, picked up some mint. Tannins that made me want to aerate this more but they were not overpowering. — a day ago
Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2024
This is always a beautiful. At this stage it’s quite complex to understand. But it’s clear that with the time it’ll turn onto a special wine. — 11 days ago
Château Latour
Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2009
Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (91.3%) and Merlot (8.7%). A bit tight and unexpressive right out of the bottle. After a 45 minute decant, this wine was awake and very alive. Dark ruby color. Aromas of graphite, forest floor, wet gravel and dark black fruit. Flavors of black currant/cherry/berry/plum, tobacco, baking spices, dark chocolate and minerals. Distinct notes of smoky oak and wet earth on the long and lingering finish. Tannins were a bit lighter than expected at first but developed with aeration. Quite savory, rich, full bodied and powerful. Beautiful texture. Exceptional (once it opened up) but not the bottle of near perfection that I had heard so much about. Thanks for sharing, Petey and Happy Birthday, Kase! — 15 days ago

Château Mouton Rothschild
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2024
94-96. Potente e bilanciato. Molto legno a naso al momento che compre un po’ le ceste di frutta matura che vengono fuori da questo vino. Veramente notevole la maturità del frutto. Forse anche grazie ad appena il 26% di Merlot. Ma i Cabernet sono intensi e maturi. Lungo ed equilibrato sul finale. — 11 days ago
Freddy R. Troya
A 2nd Grand Cru Classé 1855 Chateau located in the southern end of Pauillac that produces powerful wines with amazing structure wines.
V.2018 was beautifully blended at 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35%Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, 8%Petit Verdot, that delivers high-powered notes of espresso, tobacco leaves, and dense-black fruits on the nose.
Full-bodied, rich and velvety with an exquisite silken mouthfeel that is so signature of Pauillac wines, very plushy and opulent, yet well-priced and worth every single sip to the very last drop.
Age worthy to a decade if patient. However; literally couldn’t wait for it and had it all in a single seat! — 9 days ago
