Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Deep red bordeaux color. Dominating aromas of Merlot (blend Merlot 80%, CabFranc 20%). Earthy, powerful aromas of berries. This Pomerol blend expresses more woody and smoked meat notes compared to the one from St.Emilion of the same vintage. Christian Moueix put his name on this wine that guarantees its great quality. Small fraction of grapes from top Chateaus run by Moueix must be present in this assemblage. It’s like spying after Chateau Petrus through the keyhole. Great value for money anyway!

Насыщенный бордовый цвет. Превалирующая ароматика Мерло (бленд мерло 80%, КабФр 20%). Земля, мощный ягодный аромат. В этом ассамбляже Помроль сильнее выражены древесные ноты и дымный аромат мяса на костре, чем в варианте из St.Emilion этого же года. Christian Moueix поставил свое имя на этикетку, что гарантирует высочайшее качество. Маленькое количество винограда из топовых шато, которыми управляет Moueix точно присутствует в ассамбляже. Это как подсматривать за Шато Петрюс в замочную скважину. Отличное соотношение цены и качества!

Christian Moueix Merlot Bordeaux Rouge ETS Jean-Pierre Moueix 2015

Exceptional.
Had it with roast beef but very drinkable on its own too. On the fuller side of medium bodied. Great without decanting.

Château La Fleur-Pétrus

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2003

It has finally come around. Beautifully integrated tannins and fruit. Plums and cherries. A Classic French Bordeaux by Christian Moueix bravo. This should be the wine standard. Drink now or in the next 5 years. — 10 years ago

Dominus Estate

Dominus Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2018

Estate is the Napa Valley property of Bordeaux producer Christian Moueix; wine is bottled at historic Napanook Vineyard. A blend of 89% Cab Sauv, 6% Cab Franc & 5% Petit Verdot, aged in 40% new French oak, dark Ruby with aromas of dark currant-like berries, tobacco and cedar. On the palate layers of ripe blackberry, black cherry and cassis with vanilla, cacao and espresso. Well balanced, fine soft integrated tannins, long finish ending with floral, fruit, mineral and slight earthy character. Needs a half dozen years in the bottle but will last 20+ years! As good as Cab gets! — 2 years ago

Othello Yountville Proprietary Blend 2102

To decant or not to decant this is the question! 2012 Napa. Too good to drink daily but not a grand Sunday bottle for the father-in-law either..... or so I thought. I opened the bottle and had an immediate glass. Lovely. I then let it breath for another 40mins whilst supper was made. With breathing it became very very nice indeed. Smooth, not dry, low in tanning aftertaste. Going to say rosemary and marzipan (and trying not to sound like I'm making this up - it really does!)
We ate pink duck and avocado salad and it was as good a combination I can remember. I bought 4 bottles from my merchant and I'll take time to decant at next drinking. Some wines just won't wait but I'm learning some need a little time to show their true colours! Who doesn't like to find out something new?!
