Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend

Showing great considering the vintage

Already past it’s peak, but beautifully faded red cherry, cassis, touch of vanilla, cedar. dry, mid acidity and astringent tannin, 2002 vintage origin?

Final wine of the night - beautiful and still very youthful

Wet cigar, blazing saddle, cedar, blackberry (fr), tight tannins and a bit up front

Great structure...long finish

Surprise, un beau bordeaux 2002 rendu à point, les tannins sont fondus. En bouche c’est encore sur le fruit, un mélange de rouge et noir, de cuir, de terres, de feuilles. Super RQP... payé 54$ il y a un peu plus de 10 ans.

Double Magnum.

Great surprise, could last another 5 years

Pretty fine pair with Sams lamb eggplant tomatoes and chèvre local asperge risotto ✏️ lead graphite and lots of depth even a hint of 🍫

First cork pulled from the vintage. After a 1 hour decant, wine opened beautifully with red fruit, mellow tannins and bright profile.
