Vinya sarda - 2010- merlot — 13 years ago
2018 vintage. Celebrating the 60th vintage of the de Malet Roquefort family, the label is a copy of the 1959 label. A blend of 58% Merlot and 42% Cabernet Franc. A bit shy at first, give it some time to open up and get rewarded with complex aromatics combining red and black fruits, flowers, spices and cigar box. Concentrated, with a tight tannic structure and fresh acidity. It's not a very flashy wine, but a very classic aristocratic wine build to age gracefully for decades. Wait at least 10 years to see a glimpse of the true potential of this beauty. Will merit a higher score in the future I am sure. Still reasonably priced for a Premier Grand Cru Classé.

2012 vintage. Alexandre de Malet Roquefort (owner of Premier Grand Cru Classé La Gaffelière, Chapelle d'Aliénor Bordeaux Supérieur and co-owner of the tiny Pomerol estate La Connivence) bought this estate in 1999. In my experience his wines are very reliable and classic, elegant and never overextracted. This medium-bodied Saint-Emilion (90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon) is a solid effort for the vintage (that generally fared much better for Merlot than Cabernet Sauvignon). Strawberry fruit and very subtle oak, freshness and balance. Drinking well now, but I feel there is more room for improvement. A nice wine nearing maturity. The only "problem" is that for the price (21,9 euro) you can buy the delicious 2015 second wine of La Gaffelière. — 5 years ago
