The 2014 Léoville-Poyferré is one of the standout Left Bank wines of the vintage. Demonstrating outstanding clarity and freshness on the nose, this seems to just "leap" out of the glass like an over-excited Yorkshire terrier. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins, silky smooth in texture, a perfect line of acidity and a harmonious finish that slips down the throat. This is going to be irresistible for the next 20 years. Tasted at the Léoville-Poyferré vertical at the château with Sara Lecompte Cuvelier. (Neal Martin, Vinous, September 2022)

Well blended and easy to drink, best paired with food due to the higher alcohol content, but presents a complex flavor profile reflective of its old vine terrier. — 9 years ago

Dark fruit -baked plum, tart raspberry, baking spices. Has a mossy, earthy quality, with the flavor of soft white mushrooms and cedar. Pet a Bedlington Terrier while drinking this. — 4 years ago

Barely breaking the top 20 of grape varieties found in Sicily (also the only place Perricone is found to my knowledge), single variety Perricone isn’t exactly available in abundance, which is a shame because it’s a juicy delight. Tart black cherry is the dominant note. Also black currant, licorice, blueberries, violet with a touch of dried herbs / medicinal / savory quality on the back palate. Medium bodied. Well integrated tannins. Ebullient. Organically farmed. Terrier approved. — 5 years ago

Lovely terrier driven mineral nose with hints a hazelnut laced with lemon peel and Fuji apple fruit. Palate is missing a touch of intensity but mineral and citrus flavors. Thoroughly enjoyable but seeking a bit more complexity. — 7 years ago

Such a delicate varietal to be grown so perfectly in such an unforgiving terrier. Simply put this Pinot is damn near perfect — 9 years ago

Had this last year and it tastes even better a year later. What hit me right away as I poured my glass was the smell— like medicinal cherry. Tastes of cherry, raspberry flowers, graphite and potters clay, and herbs de Provence. Would still pair this with pets for a Cairn Terrier. — 3 years ago

Perfect cherry-filled SRH PN. Smoke blows off over the years from my previous rating. Quintessential SRH terrier show of diurnal shifting cool cloud coverage and hot sun baked afternoons. Vibrancy and brightness shows through strong and young but more complex. Well-balanced. Bright acidity across the finish. Lovely! — 5 years ago

Dear friends of ours, a couple so delightful in spirit that they adopt aged, abandoned dogs, clean them up and make sure they have the most sublime last few years of their lives, invited us over to visit their latest pooch. Their newly rescued fourteen year old terrier, Audrey, was looking vibrant with glossy coat and waggy tail. A far cry from the dusty critter from the shelter's photograph.

Audrey wasn't the only aging beauty that our friends shared with us that evening. They very kindly opened this 1986 Robert Mondavi. Despite its age, at thirty two the wine retained a good deal of freshness with focused aromatics. High toned fruit, dried leaves and subtle leather combine on the palate and evolve through the long finish. Like Audrey, my tail was wagging. — 8 years ago
