Pergolaia Toscana Sangiovese Blend 2006

I was quite happy with this super duper Tuscan. Quite, as it aged with grace and sophistication.
Pergolaia is harvested by hand in September from their Podere Serra all’olio and Podere Nocolino vineyards. Big, bombastic and mature flavors of plum, cherry, leather and cedar really shine in this smooth blend of mostly Sangiovese (with a small percentage of Cab Franc, Cab Sauv and Merlot. Elegant and well balanced drinking in every way, I'd say.
Owned by the Chateau Giscours and Chateau du Tertre guy.

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2003

At twice the price of a Calon Segur 2010, this Lynch Bages did not stand a chance... needs more maturity still. — 9 years ago

Château Joanin Bécot

Côtes de Castillon Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Good structure for a value second label from Calon-Ségur. Good fruit. Blackberry, smoke, and graphite. Some tannins so a short decant is ideal. — 9 years ago

Backus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

2nd wine of the night. Completely differen than our 1st. I kept myself wanting to go back to Calon Segur but alas there was now to be had. This had dark fruit., big Cab and a rather short finish. Very good but not awesome tonight. — 10 years ago

Château Lafon-Rochet

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1985

My fav bordeaux of the night but others preferred the '85 calon segur...this was lightsr and more elegant, and more ready to drink but will still hold for several more years. Great mature old boots, leaves and mushroom with a kiss of cassis still hanging around...very well balanced, well oaked classic bordeaux. — 11 years ago

Château Palmer

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1955

Tasted blind. Tawny color, translucent with amber rims. Notes of black cherry, cedar, some spice and a little barnyard floor. Sweet fruit in the mouth, with tannins fully resolved. Guessed 1955 Calon Segur. Perfect looking bottle, the cork revealed this bottle was reconditioned by the Chateau in 2000. — 8 years ago

Young. Much more tar and dark fruit compared to the Calon segur 95. This is more intense in body and finish. More pronounced acidity. Needs another 5 years to smooth out more — 8 years ago

Dominus Estate

Dominus Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1991

Murky dark tawny color. Opaque. Exotic nose with notes of briary herbs and black fruit, pepper, menthol, cassis and some wood. Opulent and rich in the mouth. More fruit than the Calon Segur. Great balance of fruit and structure. Memorable finish. — 9 years ago

3rd wine of the night: 2010 RUDD estate.
Bigger, more depth and a longer finish than Backus but not as long as Calon Segur. Just a tad below Calon this evening. 2nd place tonight.

On the Morlet you'll see a 2010 estate on winebid for $115.00, price from the winery was $225.00, thats why I stopped buying direct except for the 2014 La proportion doree,

Château Rocher-Calon

Montagne-Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Inky violet red. Green pepper is less prominent and the body is juicier and fruitier than other cheap Bordeaux I've had. Oak age defines this: the tannins are big but silked out considerably, and the aroma and finish are decidedly that pruney oak deal. Part of me likes the sharp raw green pepper thing, but this is much more drinkable. This is a buy-again winner. — 10 years ago
