Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend

Yeah baby 2009 IS all that! Fantastic now , this should be spectacular in 5-7 years and even better after if you have the patience. Pure cassis, currants and cherry notes mesh with campfire embers, stone minerality and coffee. Stunningly pure and long finish. #purity #bdx2009 #stemilion

Consistent with my last btl showing rich red & black fruit with sweet, savory spice, graphite & tobacco notes

This was open with rich dark cherry, plum fruit, sweet & savory, spice, earth & tobacco

Jet black cork, fair amount of sediment. 90% merlot, 10% cab franc. Could be at peak, drinking extremely well.

And now for something completely different. Saving this nice Bordeaux for a while. Having a pre-barbecue tasting...

Still young, peppery mouthfeel, warmth of 2009. Delicious.

Full bodied and well structured merlot blend with black cherry notes and silky tannins. 93
