Château Franc Maillet

Achával-Ferrer

Quimera Mendoza Malbec Blend 2021

A blend of Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot, aged in French oak 65% new and 35% 1 year old, fruit sourced from Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruit, earthy and floral spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and tart cherry flavors, with vanilla, licorice, citrus and herb spice. Fine tannins, well balanced long finish ending with tart fruit and a sweet earthy mineral character. Nice! A Fav! — 5 months ago

Château Lafon-Rochet

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2022

2022 vintage. First vintage under Lorenzetti ownership. Oak dominating initially, needs a few hours to open up. Concentrated black fruit with serious oak influence. Lots of potential, but doesn't have the charm of the 2020 today. Ab. 14,,5% — 6 months ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc

1996 Vintage- Dirt and earth abound! Dried blackberry and bramble with tobacco and leather accents. Moderate acidity still for a wine old enough to drink itself! — 7 years ago

Clos Rougeard

Les Poyeux Saumur Champigny Cabernet Franc 1990

So fresh and perfectly mature. Not at all overripe. Great wine I'll probably never have again. At La Rotisserie de La Tour d'Argent. — 9 years ago
