[Edit: 2 hours later this has come around a bit and a nice mineral character is showing through. Upped the score. Still not as interesting as the Pierre Rouge.]

We have quite enjoyed the other wines we’ve had from this producer; therefore we were surprised that this particular bottling turned out to be rather faceless & formulaic, a least to our palates. 😐 — 3 years ago

Awesome. Huge nose of tobacco, tar, cassis, black fruits, mint. What a complex nose. Red fruits. Complex, juicy and concentrated. Very young. Super youthful fruit. Wonderful. So fresh. Invigorating. — 5 years ago

My buddy, whose wife is the Godmother of our son, is the Global Sales Manager of La Cave Irouleguy.

60% of the vineyards in the AOP are vinified by La Cave. The AOP is only a couple hundred hectares. We spent a week with them during 2019, and the landscape, the people, the food, and the wine are fabulous.

The Herri Mina wines Martine’s sells by the former Petrus winemaker are vinified, raised, and bottled chez Branna.

Andrew Schirmer

Soft, elegant tannins, plush, but never cloying. Less rustic than expected—this is our first experience with this appellation. 4-hour decant. Fruit-driven aromatics, palate is more iron/mineral. Great acidity, impeccable structure, medium finish. Beautiful work. — 4 years ago
