Château Guiraud Cheval Blanc

Château Le Pin

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1988

1988 vintage. At Cheval Blanc for dinner with Olivier for dinner. Medium ruby hue. Amazing nose - pencil sharpening, cedar, dark fresh plums. Black currant notes. Savoury. Smokey and earthy. On the palate, excellent electricity and tension - medium plus acidity, medium body and alcohol and great concentration. Huge finish. Very very good. Drink now until 2027. Interesting to drink alongside the Chevals. Much less muscle and more feminine. — 9 years ago

Château Chauvin

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

9.0

Surprisingly good. Chateau Chauvin is near Cheval Blanc, and this is from the famed 1982 vintage. But still, this was a producer that had essentially lost its way until the 90s. Well, apparently the 1982 vintage transcends those issues. A fine mature Bordeaux tasting of leather and tobacco. — 10 years ago

Domaine Guiraud les Gallimardes Blanc 2013: Grenache, Clairette, Roussanne and Bourboulenc. Friendly, floral, light acacia notes, lavander, gentle, maybe the most simplistic, a bit quiet of my tasting, a licorice touch on top. — 11 years ago

Monte Faustino

Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend 2006

Thus was the wine of the night! After Mouton, Cheval Blanc and a great Ch du Pape the Amarone was my highlight. I guess there's no accounting for taste. — 12 years ago

Château Cheval Blanc

Héritiers Fourcaud-Laussac St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1947

Reddish ruby with a little brown. Almost opaque. Pure nose of black cherry, mint, herbs, cola. Incredibly rich and round in the mouth. Long finish. Guessed old Heitz Martha's Vineyard. I think that's a complement to both. Opened 5 hrs in advance and then drunk over 4 more hours, this became more refined with time. Kind of angular versus the more opulent 45 Mouton. Parker's favorite wine the legendary 47 Cheval Blanc. What a treat to compare the two side by side. I think the 45 Mouton wins at the wire tho. — 10 years ago

Chateau Grand Barrail Lamarzelle Figeac

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

This property is near Cheval Blanc, or so I am told:-) Beautiful nose of flowers, plummy flavors, and overall fresh quality with some hints of tasty oak. They like to say in Bordeaux that the worst thing about the 2006 is that it followed the 2005! — 12 years ago

Reserve Sauvignon-Semillon

One of the best whites I have tried. Great aroma, lemon and apple notes without being dominated with acidic. Crisp, light, great extra cold. I would buy a case. Bought at #freshmarket — 10 years ago
