Château Saint-Pierre

St. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

2019 vintage. This estate is on a roll, and this 2019 is absolutely stunning. Deep dark red. Impressive nose with ripe black cherries, blackberries, cassis, flowers, cedar wood, and lead pencil. Very elegant but powerful at the same time, with layers of black fruit, a velvety tannic structure, fresh acidity, and some salinity in the very long finish. Abv. 14%. Excellent. — 4 days ago

Château Ducru-Beaucaillou

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2001

Bottle was a little bit off but still an excellent wine in an underrated vintage. The better crust like Ducru Beaucaillou have done much better in 2001 than in 2000. This is so evident these days. Classical vintage and starting to get accessible now. — a month ago

Château Léoville-Las Cases

Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

Elegant and refined with dark berries and chocolate present in the best way. A beautifully structured wine that benefits from 2 hour decant. Enjoy. — 8 days ago

Château Beychevelle

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

Youthful at 19 years that is drinking nicely with a plum jam thing going on. . Very nice juice — 24 days ago

Château Lalande-Borie

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Surprisingly austere. Green, mean, and spicy. Nose is layered and complex. Tobacco leaf. This could use more time in terms of softening but I don’t see the vintage improving in any meaningful way. — a month ago

Château Lagrange

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Long decant … almost five hours.

NOSE: wintergreen, cassis … a little bourbon?

TASTE: super dense cassis, loam, and oaky tannin … red currant too .. I don’t get all the complexity I got last time I tried this — but it is very good. 94.
