Château Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 1990

1990 vintage. Last tasted 1.29.25 (9.5). Same conditions as then. Reconditioned/Château refurbed bottle with high fill and newish cork (only 20% saturated). That nose tho…H-B fer sure. Opened with a Durand. Not decanted. Tasted after 30 minutes, 1.25 hours and 2.5 hours. Phenomnomenal. Everything. Everything. In its right place. In its right place. A refurbished bottle from Le Château from this vintage in a 750ml format…another decade at this high. For mere mortal bottles, likely half that. 4.17.26. — 3 months ago

Arbois Pupillin Poulsard 2018

Might be the best red B&H I ever had. This cuvée from young vines is called en Aspis 4ème feuille. Lots of red berries and high energy. — 3 years ago

1994 Screaming Eagle. Dinner w J&L B and D&M H while staying with D&M in Santa Ynez. Opened and waited about an hour. Decanted right before serving. Tons of jammy dark fruit. Opened more in the glass. JB mentioned full palate and balance. Great finish. Preferred this to ‘91 Dominus once this opened up. — 6 years ago

Bodegas Terra Sigilata

Filón Calatayud Garnacha 2016

Abundant strawberry, raspberry, and cherry notes. Bright and lively with firming tannins on the back end to balance out the fruit. Had it solo but this would be a no brainer for bbq, pizza, and Tex Mex. $10 @ H-E-B. — 8 years ago
