This might be the best QPR wine out there (I think I paid 20bucks) drinks like 10x that and then some. White pepper, slate and grapefruit. Chewy structure. Just awesome wine. Story is this is either the press wine or the after picks from a 1st growth BDX. Somebody told me Haut Brion. I can see that. Wish I had a lot more. — 9 years ago

Last night I opened the 2016 Château Barde-Haut Saint Emilion Grand Cru. What an exquisite Right Bank Bordeaux a blend of 81% Merlot and 19% Cabernet Franc.

The nose has fragrant aromas of black cherry, black plum, black raspberry, fig, strawberry, chocolate, vanilla and damp earth.

The palate show luscious notes of black cherry, raspberry, green bell pepper, plum, herbaceous notes, black currant and crushed rock.

This wine is medium to full bodied, well balanced, rich fruited mouthfeel with medium + acidity and medium + fine tannins that lead into a black fruit finish. Again we are all preoccupied by the goings on of the events of the last several weeks that seem to be turning everyone into weak minded individuals. Please be strong, go about your lives as normal and most of all stay safe. Enjoy your wine and be good to each other. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 6 years ago

Big WOW! I tasted this wine in September 2018 at the event held by the French embassy at Central World in Bangkok, Thailand; the wine did not impress my tounge at all. However, I bought 2 bottles because a friend of mine imported it. Today (Jan 18, 2019), the wine tasted very delucious after 30 minutes of breathing. Very flavorfull of cherry, blackberry, plum, and tobacco together with soft tannins and silky & reasonable length on the finish. The color is intense but bright ruby red color with medium-to-full-weight which is goes well with medium & sexy acidity. Very good value, excellent balanced, and savory wine to pair well with medium spicy Thai dishes. — 7 years ago

Second wine of Château La Lagune. This has definitely some of the class of the grand vin. A Margaux-like elegance, clean fruit, fresh acidity, complexity and well-integrated oak. Would merit a higher score if it wasn't for a vegetal note in the finish. — 6 years ago

Sustainably farmed and sourced from Entre-Deux-Mers the deep red and black fruit give you a lush jammy full finish over the palate. Yes, of course it is young and could use a few years in the bottle but there were only 6,000 cases produced. As a direct import this 50% Merlot 35% Cabernet 15% Cab. Franc has more value than meets the eye and is a steal at around $12. Especially with so much cheap Bordeaux out there this is a much smoother affordable ride to the — 10 years ago

1986. Day 1 was charming out of the gate, then ultimately showed its oak and structure and a sort of pine quality. Preferred Haut-Batailley. Day 2 had sufficiently mellowed but still felt a little down the middle somehow. Cool side by side — 11 years ago
