Château Certan Marzelle
Château les Charmes-Godard
Le Semillon Côtes De Francs White Bordeaux Blend 2014
I'll admit, I'm always happy to have a Nicolas Thienpont wine in my glass. The Thienpont family are associated with other great Bordeaux properties including Puygueraud, Pavie Macquin and one of my personal favorites, Vieux Château Certan. The 2014 Les Charmes Godard is slightly austere, with pronounced herbaceousness. Smoky minerality swirls around boxwood, cherimoya and gooseberry notes. It's lean and racy on the palate, lightly hemmed in by oak. Here lime zest, white grapefruit, and white pepper take the center stage. — 8 years ago
Château de la Négly
Porte du Ciel Coteaux du Languedoc Syrah Blend 2001
Killer tasting at Spectrum last week: Ponsot, 82 Certan de May, Philloponat, Joly, l'Ermite, but this stole the show. Great wine. — 10 years ago
Le Prieure La Marzelle
Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Bordeaux 2005
Frederik bought a pallet 5 years ago. Drinking the last 2 bottles. Knokke, Belgium summer 2016. Enjoyed the 2005 in 2016. Still holding up. Still a bit tart on the opening. — 9 years ago

Château L'Eglise-Clinet
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2014
The 2014 L’Eglise-Clinet has a gentle, understated bouquet at first that takes time to open, eventually offering black fruit, melted tar, truffle and bay leaf aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, rather masculine and thickset at the moment, lightly spiced towards the finish. Much like the Vieux-Château-Certan, this is a little awkward in a blind setting however, it clearly meliorates in the glass and I keep on having to up my score. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2018) — 7 years ago
Masseto
Toscana Merlot 1998
Its a Merlot shoot out. ''98 Massetto v '82 Vieux Chateau Certan. Out of the bottle the 82 pomerol is a true winner. The'98 Massetto with ABV of 14.5% is certainly bolder and in. NO HURRY TO drink!! — 9 years ago

The 2017 Hosanna was one of my favourite crus from Ets J-P Moueix from barrel. Now in bottle, it remains a delightful Pomerol. It has a generous and beautifully defined bouquet with ample red cherry, crushed strawberry and light black truffle aromas that are actually reminiscent of Bélair-Monange. The palate is medium-bodied but denser, thicker than its peers. There is real substance to this Hosanna that puts the relatively lightweight Certan-de-May in its place. It shows good grip with a saline finish. This is a deeply impressive Hosanna. Rejoice! (Neal Martin, Vinous, February 2020)
