Gorgeous showing for Dad’s bday. Harmonious fruit, oak, acid and alc. Showing Staglin terroir, finessed and elegant with supple mid-palate, length, and classic sweet sage background note. Lovely ripe black plum, currant, and berry, warm spice, violets, gravel, sage, tobacco and camphor. Tannins are showing early integration and charm.

Polished, clean, and inky. A beautiful showing from Staglin - blue toned and floral, with a beautifully gripping texture.

2014 vintage. Go back with Staglin to the beginning. Have usually found it (both to their credit and detriment) slightly too acidic and lean without truly embracing one or the other. Distinctive style and it obviously works for them and theirs. Rauzan-Segla from Margaux does it better for the same pricing.

With the lovely and talented Michelle Carr. A great grower. Nice fruit, but not well structured.
