A good Chardonnay type wine. Was really good with Seafoodm — 3 years ago
Needs a long decant. Perhaps 2 hours. Deep brooding Merlot blend. Dark chocolate, blackberry, dark cherry. Should be consumed with steak or lamb. I had it with aged cheddar which worked but was not ideal. Ready to drink now but likely better in a few years. — 20 days ago
Côtes du Rhône at La boheme for vday - 60% Grenache 40% Syrah — 6 months ago
This is not hitting. It seems a bit unbalanced and acidic and medium finish. Definitely not worth the price. #beaune #premiercru #dominquelafon #lafon — 8 months ago
I think I’m drinking this too young. It’s fairly saturated and very pure and beautiful wild blackberry fruit. No pyrazines. I would give this another few years in the cellar. Popping half bottle in the fridge and expecting it to be excellent tomorrow. edit: skipped day two and drank on day three. Herbs. Purity of fruit. This is 🔥 — 9 months ago
Pretty decent Morgon for less than 17$. — a year ago
Great cork & freshness, needs air to fully evaluate,
K&L notes as follows
This property was a Bill Blatch favorite-and as usual I have never visited the property which is located in Begadan. Château Vieux Robin is a family owned Cru Bourgeois estate located in Begadan at the far north of the Médoc. 5th generation owners Maryse and Didier Robin have made huge strides in terms of quality since they took over in 1988. Didier Robin, who learnt his trade at Château Clarke, is a skilled winemaker and now produces 4 different cuvées of ascending quality.There are only 18 hectares of vines and Vieux Robin is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. Old school Bordeaux with 12% alcohol. Over 20 years old and still lively and fresh. No fancy oak here-just good Merlot and Cabernet.

If you hold it long enough Austin Hope will be the first GELIFIED Bottle,From 2 weeks ago when the app was not functioning.
Found it in my wine fridge and wasn’t sure it was still drinkable. Cork was iffy, but came out well after some effort. Not even on the decline yet, very robust showing with red and dark fruits and a good solid foundation. Very enjoyable and could have probably stored this another 5 years. — 2 months ago
Didn’t know much about Loire valley red wines until this random bottle popped up. Very nice - red fruit and grippy tannins. Some earth tones. — 3 months ago
