Château Larose Trintaudon 2014, Ac Haut Médoc

A little bit of sediment in the bottle. 45% Cab, 51% Merlot, and 4% Petit Verdot.

Plum and earthy aromas hit you right away then cherry and raspberries.

Taste of cherry, raspberry, potting soil, cedar, cassis, and a hint of plum. Subtle fine-grain tannins with medium minus acidity.

Unánime Gran Vino Tinto 2017, Uco Valley

Deep purple with medium-intensity aromas of violet, roasted bell peppers, dried herbs, cherry, blackberry,cassis smoke, oak, and vanilla.

Medium plus intensity flavors of black fruits, cherry, oak, vanilla, white pepper, dried herbs, and chili peppers. After 2 hours the finish starts to turn to sweet bell peppers, a juicy wine with medium plus acidity and soft tannins.

At first, it was like a Malbec then it turned into a medoc wine, lovely. This will be even better with age.

Isabelle Et Phillipe Germain Le P'tit Léon Beaune 2019, A.P.

Aromas of cranberry, hibiscus, smoke, rosemary, and red fruit. Flavours of cherry, dried fruit, perfume, white pepper, balsamic, and minerals. Solid Pinot. Oct 2023

Château La France Delhomme Cru Bourgeiois 2016, A.C. Médoc

Soft beautiful red fruit dominates the nose; strawberry, raspberry and a hint of cranberry jam. Mushrooms and oak follow. Felt like I was smelling a chianti.

The palate is oak, mushroom, plum, cherry, minerals, vanilla and chocolate. After 90 min perfume flavours come out. Some chalky tannins linger but soften after 45 minutes.

Great food wine

La Croix Bonis 2016, A.C. St Estèphe

From selected parcels from Château Phélan Ségur, 60℅ Merlot and 40% Cab. Bonfire aromas along with violet, spice, cassis, brown sugar, tobacco, and VA.

After 60 Min the wine becomes juicy shedding the chalky tannins from the pop and pour. Plum, ripe blueberry, cedar, and saline, long finish. Jan 2024

Poliziano Rosso Di Montepulciano 2019, Doc

Salentein Reserve Malbec 2019, Valle De Uco, Mendoza

Sutherland Pinot Noir 2019, W.O. Elgin

Mazzei Fonterutoli Chianti Classico 2019, Docg

The Sangiovese scent is lovely, with hints of violet, cherry, and potting soil. The flavors are consistent with the aroma, with notes of red licorice and menthol that bring a refreshing taste to the wine. The acidity is moderate-to-high, and the tannins are soft. -April 2024

Château Hauchat 2019, Ac Fronsac

Out of all the vintages I've had of this wine this is the most approachable thanks to limited tannins, but the fruit is not as pronounced as the previous vintages. So that's the tradeoff.

Aromas of perfume, black cake, iron, and menthol. Juicy medium minus flavours of plum, cherry, blueberry, cedar, salt, and menthol. After two hours chocolate shows up. Approachable tannins with medium plus acidity and medium minus finish. Good value- Feb 2024
