Château d'Esclans

Domaines Sacha Lichine Rock Angel Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend 2021

I love a Provence Róse with a little age to it! Presents with cherries, strawberries, melon, nectarine, and cucumber. Nice viscosity on the palate, nice long herbal finish, with a touch of lavender. I prefer Rock Angel over Whispering, which has a bitter floral element to it that bites, just my taste preference. — 4 days ago

Oh my god that nose. Melon, beeswax, floral, spice, going in and out of closed. Finding its focus. A fierce rocky minerality as well. But needs more air. Palate is just absurd. Unreal density but also plumpness. Super textured and like an icing on the cake and the most insane restrained richness and grip. Concentrated and so so deep. Unreal balance, purity and finish. Nose is heaven. Just so ethereal and not a hair out of place. Crazy inner mouth aromas. Perfect fruit capture. Unreal freshness and acidity and it leaves your mouth in a state of vinous arousal. Juicy and nimble. So engaging and the juiciness is just stunning and the standout characteristic for this wine. I swish so hard and there is no hair out of place. Palate is insane 24 hours later. Mineral blast, sick purity, iodine and saline. Sweet minerals. — 2 months ago

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1983

Château Latour is an iconic estate in the Pauillac commune on the left bank of Bordeaux, achieving coveted ‘First Growth’ status in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification.

The estate has roots dating back to the 14th century and derives its name ‘La Tour’ from a fortress tower built during the Hundred Years’ War, which no longer exists but is prominently featured on the label in recognition of its history.

We weren’t sure what to expect, as many have predicted these 1983s are likely past their prime, but this wine was a masterpiece. 🤩

It was medium garnet in color with expressive notes of cedar box, cigar, clove, peat, leather, forest floor, fig, prune, dried black cherry, plum, cassis, blackberry compote, cardamom, cinnamon, star anise, dried violet, potpourri, kalamata olive, pencil shavings, graphite, & bacon fat.

It had the most velvety, fine-grained tannins that washed across the palate with ease, with a gentle but notable acidity that maintained lift and balance. It was concentrated, complex, and had a long, elegant finish.
