What a night with pascaline Lepeltier, who after 50 years in wine teaches me a whole new spectrum. Absolutely wonderful. — a day ago

Still youthful that opened up beautifully with some air showing notes of dark cherry, red berry, game, mineral, spice, soy, orange peel & violet — 2 months ago

The 1999 Clos de la Roche VV pours a slightly hazy ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with gorgeous notes of ripe red and black fruits: raspberry, bruised strawberry, black cherry, dried red flowers, licorice, mushroom, sous bois, all spice. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and dripping with complexity. During the first couple hours, this was pretty locked up and willing to share its secrets. Towards the end of the night, this ended up being one of the wines what really started to pour it on. My favorite pairing with the boeuf Bourguignon. Drink now with some patience but better after 2029 and through 2049 with ease. — 11 days ago

1997(!) vintage. What a nice surprise. Still very much alive, a most pleasurable light Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. I would have never expected the entry level of Los Vascos to age this well. Abv. 12,5%. — 2 months ago

9.4

A blend of 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Carmenère, 19% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot, aged in 53% new oak, remainder in second used oak. Deep Ruby with pronounced aromas of ripe fruit, oak and sweet floral notes. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry, cherry and sweet plums with vanilla, cedar, herb and earthy notes. Fine sweet tannins, long finish, well balanced with acidity, ending with notes of spice, fruit and cedar. Beautiful, just starting to open, will be good for next decade. — a month ago

Maybe I’m not objective because of such fond memories of smelling this in the tank and tasting its two predecessors en barrique with Hubert on our honeymoon. But I can’t imagine this being any better than it was last night on our 25th anniversary. — 5 months ago
