Happy birthday to me. Nutty, honey, a little creamy, stone fruit, but with solid minerality. Wonderful. — 12 days ago
Popped and poured; no formal notes. The 2010 “La Gravette de Certan” pours a deep ruby, almost purple color with some fine sediment. Gorgeous aromas of ripe brambles, plums, purple flowers, cocoa, graphite minerals and baking spices. That palate is treated to a luxurious silken blanket of flavor with ample fruit that is deftly balanced by minerals, earth and a gentle kiss of spices. The structure, which is wonderfully integrated, props everything up. The finish is long and effortlessly charming. This is classic Pomerol. Even though this is the second wine of VCC, it’s treated like (and drinks like) it’s one of the great wines of the appellation. Everyone who shared this bottle tonight was completely smitten. Drinking so well now and should continue to do so for at least another 5-10 years…but no reason to wait. — a month ago
Delicious, well rounded on palette. — 5 days ago
We pulled this from the cellar - originally from the winery during a trip to the Okanagan in the summer of 2016 . This is a very silky wine. Complex, powerful notes with violets, stewed dark fruit, wild blueberry, eucalyptus, white pepper with a hint of basil and bell pepper. A great Canadian wine and well worth the wait. It’s definitely a drink now. — a month ago

The 2nd wine to Vieux Telegraphe’s famed La Crau. Sweet Grenache raspberry notes on nose and palate. Fresher, more fruit and less savoury than I was expecting, although there is a note of light tar. Tannins are fine and very fluid. Hasn’t got the depth of La Crau. 80% Grenache 10% Syrah 6% Mourvèdre 4% Cinsault. — 7 days ago
