Produced by Earl Regnault. Really big fan of this. So refreshing, clean, and delicious - much like the Bruno Paillard from the other night: gulpable. Imagine taking a stroll through a rose garden on a coastal estate right after a summer rain while eating a watermelon, strawberry, peach, or nectarine. You have this wine. — 6 years ago
The 2004 Léoville-Poyferré has a light and airy bouquet with blackberry, antique bureau, forest floor and light fungal aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly dry tannins, a little austere but balanced, though I notice some attenuation and bitterness towards the finish. So-so for this estate. Tasted at the Léoville-Poyferré vertical at the château with Sara Lecompte Cuvelier. (Neal Martin, Vinous, September 2022)

Carmel, chewy chocolate goodness….Calvados is our Fall/Winter warm-up jam… and it’s all about the age. 18 years ushers in that silken smooth yet 80 proof weight…but in truth it’s the complexity of the apple aroma. I love using our antique German crystal glasses… swirl, deep sniff, repeat!
