9.1

Started off a bit weekish with sour cherries, high acidity and a hollow fruit profile but this turned sweet after 90 min with great balance, modest fruits, perfumed nose and tertiary notes. A treat. — a month ago

Quite ripe orchard fruits with a clear minerality streak which appeared after a while. The alcohol felt disjoint at this point. Think it’s time to drink these and not expect great things to happen in the future. Nevertheless enjoyable. — 2 months ago

Beautiful stil and now entering a new phase. Enough stuffing to carry this wine some more years. Some hay and honey nectar start to emerge. — 5 months ago

9.1

This wine shows bright, crunchy freshness with notes of alpine cough drops, fresh green herbs, and a touch of petrol. The palate is taut and mineral-driven, layered with lime zest and green apple, grapefruits. A saline, slatey undercurrent adds depth and tension, leading to a clean, mouthwatering finish. A precise and expressive Mosel Riesling with real energy and character. — 3 days ago

Lovely now with a great glass filling nose. Fresh an vibrant on the palate, juicy red fruits, cedar, smoke and cigar boxes. Delicate now after 16 years but far from over the hill. Love this wine and an incredible value. — 2 months ago

Popcorny cali chardonnay with just enough freshness to counter the 14%. The expressive fruits are mellowing down and some tertiary nuances appear. Lovely wine with a Dutch twist. — 3 days ago

9.1

The 2011 Château Fleur Cardinale shows a warm, expressive character with ripe blackberry, blueberry, cherry, and prune notes, complemented by hints of dried fruit, leather, nutmeg, and subtle oak. The palate is rich and velvety, framed by plush tannins and layers of crème de cassis. Despite its age, the wine feels remarkably youthful and vibrant. A touch of alcohol warmth lingers on the finish, adding to its generous, polished style. — 3 days ago

9.1

This wine is drinking very well now after some years of ageing. Fruit depth of dark raspberry and cherry, a bit of smoke, pleasant herbs and a bit of oak. Good complexity and intensity, Lapierre lives up to its status on this one. — 3 months ago
