Domaine Morey-Coffinet

Morgeot Fairendes Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2013

9.4

2013 vintage. Decanted and tasted at room temps 1.5 and 2.5 hours after said decant. No sed. Golden, honeyed, mead nose and flavors along with a splash of incidental and transient citrus baggage. Rays of acidic sunshine still (surprisingly) coming through with intensity. Lengthy exeunt. Dayumed delish for a decade+ old white Burg. Can go forth and prosper in this stead for approx 4-5 years. 03.07.25. — 2 days ago

Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite

Grande Reserva Cromas Los Vascos Valle de Colchagua Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

9.3

Last night I opened the 2018 Los Vascos Cromas Cabernet Sauvignon Gran Reserva. A Domaines Barons De Rothschild-Lafite from Valle de Colchagua, Chile. A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Syrah and 5% Carménère.

On the nose was black cherry, blackberry, plum, mint, black currant, herbaceous, chocolate and earth.

On the palate there was black cherry, blackberry, black currant, baking spice, black pepper, chocolate, graphite and dusty soil.

This is a full bodied wine with a smooth plush mouthfeel medium+ acidity and medium + fine tannins that has a long dark fruit crushed gravel finish. A very nice wine and great QPR. Please enjoy the week ahead and try and be good friend. Stay safe and healthy and we will prosper innthe week ahead. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 3 years ago

@John Bratincevic I was surprised. I usually feel Suckling over rates by at least two points but feel this is solid. Hope you like it.

Stone Edge Farm

Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

9.2

2012 vintage. Medium body. Subdued nose with just some slightly tart, dark cherry afoot. Some frontal spice box married to that tart, dark cherry and a light muddiness (¿word?). Back end/finishing richness makes an appearance for a spell. Nicely made. Not overwhelming (nor underwhelming) for CA but should go forth and prosper for another 5-7 years at this level. 02.09.25. — a month ago

Light gold; fascinating nose that’s floral, a little minty, mineral and dusty, yet it’s not really open; citrusy palate is mouth-coating with an herbal aspect adding to the distinct minerality. Spiciness really came thru on day two. (At Le Maufoux, again not a local listing.) — 3 years ago
