Da bomb, for sherry lovers: Palo Cortado versión. A shape shifter on the palate & ringing on the higher registers, this Hidalgo checks all the boxes for me, which includes a lightness & freshness heaven made for most food. Burnt pine cone & toffee bits, a subtle mushroom thing (oyster?), & a rather trim beef bouillon broth lurking on the back end. That may all be bs but it’s a wine that inspires….. — 2 years ago

17.5/20 (94/100) Развитой букет ароматов сушеных яблок, вяленой вишни, кизила, с тонкими тонами подлеска, кожи и гвоздики. Тельное с высокой, немного резкой кислотностью и довольно интенсивными, замшевыми по текстуре танинами. годы, подлесок и кожа во вкусе. Великолепно! #dfwe2018 — 5 years ago

As you would expect from Manfred. After a while you just run out of superlatives and just sit there with a Syrah stained smile on your face. Rich dark fruit with beef blood smell (that term doesn’t do justice to how interesting and delicious the combination really is). Tremendous finish, dark color to the edge. Just a great wine experience. My only bottle. I have no clue how long this wine could go before peaking. — 6 years ago

A unique bourbon. Vanilla nose with an incredible flavor of cherries on the palate, almost kirsch-like. Very happy with this. — 5 years ago

16.5/20 (90/100) В первом носе преобладают тона подлеска, которые со временем развиваются в тона прелой хвои, сухих чёрных ягод, сушеного чернослива, чёрного шоколада и кожи. Высокая кислотность и довольно интенсивные, бархатистые по текстуре танины. Сухие чёрные ягоды, шоколад и кожа во вкусе. Прекрасное выдержанное бордо. — 6 years ago

Awesome stuff. Biscuit dough, baked apple, a bit of oak influence, beautiful effervescence and great acid. 2005 vintage, but can only imagine how it will be in 20 years.. — 7 years ago

(17/20) Насыщенный аромат чёрной смородины, вишни, молочного шоколада. Свежая кислотность и мелкозернистые, округлые танины. Сочное и элегантное. #decanterfwe — 8 years ago

Tasted 2005 - photo is of different tasting. Tasting notes 2005: Absolutely to die for. Perfect tannic structure, ripe and round
Could age 20 more years but still wonderful
North of medoc and you'd expect deep and dark, but actually the most feminine and elegant and beautiful of poulliac wines

Balanced finish
Not overpowering at all — 8 years ago

Сладко-цветочный, яркий, молодой. Ягодный леденец, малина, спелая клубника, смородина, яркий ягодный аромат, немного шоколада, какао, болгарский перец на гриле. Ярко, взрывно но не тяжело и очень свежее. Большой потенциал.

1934 Château Margaux

Top shoulder fill. Semi-opaque at the core, almost like an old burgundy with its brownish hews. Beautiful and graceful bouquet of roses, raspberries that have been baked, very elegant and healthy nose. At first very dry, with the fruit barely hanging on for dear life, but after 15 minutes in the decanted it comes alive with sweet fruit, high acidity and just a kiss of tannin. This is very complex and sublime for about a period of 20-40 minutes, what else could you ask for from a 80 year old bottle of wine.
THANKS DAVE !!

12/24/20 (Out of Magmun) Immense and dark ruby-black in color the nose offers mature currant coffee sage and dusty berry and anise flavors that have some youthful nuances. Complex and concentrated it's well-focused and appealing...... A perfect score.🥰💯 — 3 years ago

Pristine cork, decanted for 5 hours: still balanced, complex, and harmonious as a 20 year old in a challenging vintage. Fruit still lively, with mellow tannins—this still has a few years left. Came out best for me in an evening of great old wines: ‘98 Corison, ‘98 Montelena Estate, plus de la Tour ‘99. Never underestimate the consistency of a great estate, year after year. Glad I have another bottle or two. — 5 years ago

(16.5/20) Вино с насыщенным ароматом в котором преобладают тона выдержки в дубе - кофе и чёрный шоколад. Довольно тельное с высокой кислотностью и деликатными по текстуре танинами. Очень неплохо для 2007 года. — 7 years ago

17.5/20 Элегантный аромат с нотами ежевики, красной сливы, вишни и черного шоколада. Тельное с довольно высокой кислотностью и бархатистыми танинами. Полностью готовое вино несмотря на довольно молодой возраст. #dfwe2015 — 8 years ago
