What can I say! EaglesvsDallas in Dallas! Hence no tailgate. So at home drinking one of the best Chards in the world! Yup! 2009 Marcassin Vyd, a toasty creamy Chard with gobs of fruit. Wow! With a little bottle age it really shows how Really good it can be! Great balance with good acidity and backbone. Alcohol is 14.4 and doesn't show at all, Bravo here. CB 94+ — 9 years ago

Epic! Right in the sweet spot! absolute textbook G.C.C. that is perfect proof the 1855 is a joke! I sincerely hope it never gains the Unesco status some privileged Bordelais estates are hoping for, if this is considered 'fifth league'. Champagne & Burgundy bravo however! Truly deserving of their hard-fought Unesco world heritage status. — 10 years ago

10 year Bordeaux...Bravo. The tannins have settled somewhat with the result being that this wine's structure, acidity, frame and finish are all in alignment. Rich dark fruits,cassis and Christmas cake. Such a joyfully smooth drop. — 10 years ago

This wine made me smile with every single sip, unbelievably good. The bottle pours out a beet and blackberry color blood. It's nose is rich with dried black fruits, crushed plums, dark cherries, yeast and some floral aromatics. It's dominent in black cherry, blackberry and plum flavors. Notes of cracked black pepper and blueberries accompany its dominating flavors. It sits with a medium plus body. It's tannins are a perfect velvety medium grain, it's acidity is moderate, all of which settle with a long finish. I was completely suprised at how much I liked this as I'd usually pick Argentina as king for this grape, but bravo..I've found my new favorite Malbec. — 9 years ago
