Château de Saint-Cosme

Côtes du Rhône Syrah 2022

WS Top Values for this year so tried it and also because I love Syrah. Cherry notes are prevalent but not a fruit bomb like some American versions. Smooth finish. Would get again. — 2 months ago

Château Canon-la-Gaffelière

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Dark ruby hue. Aromas of blackberry, cassis, earthy, leather, pepper, plum. Plus body, plus tannins, plus acidity. Balanced with a long finish. Bold and smooth. Eminently drinkable now, but well worth cellaring. 49% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Franc, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon. — 22 days ago

Reserve Unfiltered Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1991

One more example of why I obsess over 1991 California cabs. Your nose is greeted with the whiff of an antique furniture store that soon gives way to red fruit, cedar and earth. The first thing you notice when you start to drink this gem is the vibrant acidity. The palate follows the nose only to be joined by slow resolving tannins. You cannot ask for a more graceful package. — 4 months ago

@Ira Schwartz 1991 still has classic producers making classic California wines. This is a generalization of course…but you know.

Hell yes. Love this producer. If you can score a bottle of the 2019 or 2020 St. Joseph "Vieilles Vignes," you won't be disappointed. Up's the ante.
