Château Grand Corbin-Despagne

Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Cherry, amarena and amaretto on the nose. Crunch freshly cut red fruits, nice little depth and stratification. harsh tannins which when will integrate will give shape to a beautifully drinking old school Bordeaux. — 7 months ago

Pioneer Block 20 Cash Block Sauvignon Blanc 2014

9.1

At age 9, this shows remarkably young. Aromatic and refreshing on the nose, with lime, Asian pear, shishito pepper, and fresh cut grass - no tropical fruits I usually associate with Kiwi SB. Flavors echo the nose. Sharp acidity with round edge. Light salty minerals on the long finish.
The Cash Block is named after the owner, whose last name is Register, of the vineyard the grapes sourced from.

Château Haut-Corbin

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Nice balance, good berries up front and pepper and a little leather. I felt it could have a little more depth. Ugo liked it more than me. Aged well. Nice treat. — 3 years ago

Mount Mary

Triolet Sauvignon Blanc Sémillon Muscadelle 1995

I won the equivalent of lotto if it was paid off in wine instead of cash. I was fortunate enough to sit next to a group of very generous sommelier’s on their day off. For me, one of the most enjoyable experiences when drinking wine is the “ah ha moment” . This bottle was a true revelation. The nose was filled with fruit, florals and freshness . The palate was insane, assaulting your mouth with citrus , orchard fruits and a waxy honey note. Endless acid and a very persistent finish. — 2 years ago

A great find Ira. Mount Mary is one of Australia’s outstanding producers IMO. They don’t make a bad wine from any of their Cuvées with possibly the Cabernets being the standout along with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Hard to find if you’re not on the mailing list.

@Bob McDonald I didn’t find it, Bob, the sommelier’s at the next table, made it find me😊. I am very familiar with their reds but not familiar at all with the whites..

Louis-Benjamin Dagueneau

Silex Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2016

Stat bright pale straw. Lighter but inviting nose of Asian pear, toasted vanilla spice, and rocks. Palate is medium full yielding chalky pear, flinty citrus rind, and a hint of chalky vanilla. Medium long finish, especially as the wine warms up. The flagship wine of Domaine Dagueneau lives up to all the hype. “A red in white clothing,” as my drinking partner puts it. Allegedly, Didier preferred this wine with a rare steak. I totally get that, having had this with a lightly marbled New York strip (and shrimp). It’s Cabernet Sauvignon’s mother after all. So much complexity and general “stuff” in this wine! If you’re one of those who won’t spend a lot on white wines, you’re missing out. This is up there with Savienneres and White Burgundy among white wine royalty. Fork over the cash. You won’t regret it. Drink now through 2026. — 4 years ago
