I found this little gem in the back of my cellar. I thought I drank it years ago but alas it’s been there for the past 17 years without being touched. Absolutely gorgeous 2000 vintage at its peak All the hard edges have faded into history leaving a gorgeous graphite laden claret that is soft as silk. I can’t stop drinking this wine! FYI, Delectable says it’s cab sav but it’s cab franc blend. Thanks again JR. you blew me away

Sep 13th, 20212005 Chateau les Bertrands Nectar des Bertrands. Cotes de Blaye. I love checking in on supposed "lesser" appellations in great vintages. This is gorgeous mocha dusted cherry juice w/ tannic structure to go a while still. If you ever see this, slip it in your Pomerol tasting. Lovely.
