Madiran Tannat 2018

9.0

I’ve tried excellent Tannats from South America, and this one is just as great. Full bodied, deep red color yet gentle acidity on the tongue. I thoroughly enjoyed it. 2018. — a month ago

9.3

[80% Tannat, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon] Leather, forest floor, maybe a little Brett, excellent structure and depth, despite its age, seems like it can easily age another 10-15 years, long, lingering finish, excellent Madiran! — 3 months ago

@Peter van den Besselaar, I agree with @Ira Schwartz that these Madiran from Montus last pretty much forever, I have a few 1995s still in the cellar.

And with today being Cassoulet Day, I want cassoulet and this wine!

@Ira Schwartz @Jay Kline @Doug Powers thx. Ideal pairing with cassoulet 🫶

Vieilles Vignes Madiran Tannat 2018

9.0

Dense, tannic, medium weight texture, good acidity, a little stony earth and funk. Tastes Italian, but less rustic than that implies. A little on the simple side but tastes good wine for grownups. I imagine it could age a lot. 90. — 4 months ago

Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh Sec Blanc White Blend 2015

9.2

This is very similar to Les Jardins Philosophiques from the sister property Bouscasse, with a bit more nutty lightly oxidative notes that almost points you to Jura Blanc. Textured body contrasts the crisp acidity nicely.
Usually a blend of Petit Courbu and Petit Manseng, but the back label shows 100% Petit Courbu for 2015. This will cruise for another 5-8 years. — 3 months ago

XL Madiran Tannat 1999

9.4

The secondary and tertiary notes are on full display at year 25, yet there are still blackberry and raspberry lingering around. It’s rich, powerful, and silky smooth on the palate. Very rustic and savory yet so refined. The tannins are resolved but there is plenty of acidity to hold this for 5-6 more years before its slow descent.
Somewhat reminds me of Musar. — 5 months ago
