Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

First meeting of monthly wine group and everyone came to play.

Nose: areomatics draw you in with ripe dark fruit, floral, forest floor, truffles. Taste: Elegant, silky, balanced wine with cherry, smoke, toast, earth, and a medium plus plum/cedar/chocolate finish. YUM!!

@Michael Herzog This is really great stuff, had the 2000 on release, and that bottle sent me into a love affair with white Burgundy. Just wish it wasn't getting so damn pricey.

Le Vieux Pin

Retouche Cabernet Syrah 2027

This wine is composed of 56% Merlot, 23% Syrah, and 21% Cabernet Franc. The longer it stayed in my glass, the better it tasted. It has pronounced aromas of dark plum, dark cherry, and blackberry, along with a hint of pepper and some spiced herbs. The wine is complex, well-rounded, and balanced, featuring smooth tannins and a long finish. — a year ago

l'Hêtre

Côtes de Bordeaux Castillon Red Bordeaux Blend 2018

2018 vintage. From the estate formerly known as Château Goubau (renamed 2016) and from the same family that brings you L’If and some wine called Le Pin. 95% Merlot. 5% Cab Franc. Really dark hue. Mint, blackberries, earth and tobacco in the nose. Medium-bodied with ample, silky tannins. The longer in the glass, the more white pepper and herbaceous flavors gain prominence. Nice QPR and will look to pick up more. Pretty now but just may be a stunner in a few years. — 5 years ago

I really like that wine, especially with a bit of age, which allows the tannins to integrate.

Bordeaux doesn’t have to be expensive to be delicious or age. The 2001 is in great shape, still fresh, nuanced and a pleasure to drink! — 7 years ago

Équinoxe Syrah 2016

A wonderful bottle of 100% Syrah out of the South Okanagan Valley in BC. This is a flagship wine and vintage for Le Vieux Pin. A bold wine, yet supple tannins and an extremely smooth mouth feel. Exceptionally balanced. Aromas of violets; red and black berry fruit, with baking spice, and black pepper on the palette. A stunner! — 9 months ago
