Château Figeac

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

97-98. Best wine tasted in the right bank.
Pure flowery and fruity aromas of incredible precision.
In the mouth it is simply perfect. Given the challenges of the vintage it is really incredible.
Technical yes, but not lacking personality.
A real great wine.

Château La Dominique

Grand Cru Classé St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Vintage 2010 | gave it two hours in decanter, a barnyard stinky in smell (not everyone appreciates this, I do), cedar very present, hints of spices and a good concentration. When accompanied with food it is ready to drink now. Fine right bank wine, neighbour of Cheval Blanc (I take a special interest in neighbours of the priceless top domaines). — a month ago

I’m a big fan of La Dominique, though I haven’t purchased any after the 1990.

Château L'Eglise-Clinet

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Seriously good stuff here. Soo deep and complex. Rocky firm tannins but with a velvety touch all the way thru.
Absolutely beautiful aftertaste where all the feminine touch of Pomerol turns out superbly. Very, very good wine.

Château Canon

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Naso Energico, elegante e delicato. Molto profumato.
In bocca è snello e tutta l’intensità che manca al medio palato sferza con insistenza calcarea nel lungo aftertaste.

May turn really lovely with time.
