Merlot dominant in a left bank. Rare but definitely an experience. Plush wine with good tannins and a great evolving flavor. Black currants, touches of plums, graphite and a wine that evolves throughout the experience. An age worthy wine. — 18 days ago
Color showing some age already. Nose of ripe plum. Medium acidity with resolved tannins and medium plus finish. Still some fruit at the first sip, which gives way to some wood, coffee and dark chocolate flavors. — 9 hours ago
From mag. Lovely supple fruit. Tangy marmalade and lemon honey with toasted notes. Mellow and intense with lovely acidity. In a great place — 7 days ago
Paying more attention to vintage w Bdx these days, 2012 Graves showing very well right now with enough punch to go longer. — 5 days ago
Sipping Fine Wine
Blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc with 5% Semillon and 5% Sauvignon Gris, aged 50% new oak. Medium lemon color with aromas of stone and tropical fruits, citrus and blossom with spicy notes. On the palate flavors of peach, pear and pineapple with slight citrus and honeysuckle adding pepper spice. Long finish, balanced acidity, ending with a fruit, oak and chalky mineral spice character. Very good! Will age well! — a day ago
