2005 vintage brought back from the chateau in 2008. Enjoyed with my wife on her birthday and my son David and his wife Liz. A great night! — 9 years ago

Freaking delicious. Predominantly Cabernet franc (80%) with the remainder merlot. This is serious stuff. Although still a baby, it is right on par. Gravelly, granite, and dark fruits dominate. I have some for sale ($65... Elsewhere it starts at $90) just had to try a bottle — 10 years ago

Dads day so going back to the winery where my dad was the winemaker in 1979 👊🏻 Great but tannic finish. Needs to soften a bit over time. Wait a few years to drink — 9 years ago

This wine reminds me of a wonderful weekend spent in the Bordeaux, France. The Saint-Emilion Grand Cru is a beautiful blend. It is a bit fruity smooth, medium bodied. Tres bien! — 10 years ago

Sensational! This was a rec from a Parisian wine store owner, who said he recently opened a bottle and was delighted. He did not disappoint. Obviously stored perfectly. Bursting with bright fruit (blueberry), and tastes of cassis and baking spices. With just enough of that Bordeaux-St Emilion earthiness to satisfy but please even the non-Bordeaux drinker — 9 years ago

Much lighter than I had expected. Awesome aromas; garrigue, camphor, capsicum, tobacco, black tea, leather. The palate is complex, giving off different flavors with each sip. Bright cherry, mushrooms, dusty earth, briar berry, green pepper, charcoal. Finishes with smoke and a nice touch of white pepper. Beautifully complex. All the elegance of a fully mature St. Emilion. — 10 years ago
