Another bargain alert! At this price level, perhaps the most subtle and elegant of all wines tasted. Not as expressive as Ormes de Pez, but top marks for delicate refinement and indeed a noticeably floral aromatic profile that accentuates the palate. As wine consultant Kevin Gagnon noted at a tasting: ‘Finesse and great length.' Do not hesitate. Drink now-2035.

One of the many estates on the Pez plateau in Saint-Estèphe, this property is at the top of its game. Owned by the same proprietors as Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, the wine has structure, big tannins as well as dense black fruits. Drink from 2024.

Wine Tasting Notes
The vintage is dense in color, retaining a purplish-blue hint typical of wines that are slow to develop. The slightly toasty nose has plenty of red- and black- berry fruit and a hint of jamminess mingled with aromas of spice and tobacco. The nose is what you would expect of a wine made from very ripe grapes. It is already deliciously complex. The palate is entirely consistent with the nose. The attack is still firm at this stage but developing in a manner that instantly suggests an opulent wine. Good, well-rounded substance lingers elegantly on the palate, with silky tannins and not a trace of harshness. This is truly an exceptional wine: thoroughbred, elegant and rich.

My same grade from four months ago. Not seeing it make the leap from good to great/90/ 9.0/ A- to 93/ 93/ A. Maybe to 92/ 9.2/ A-?

Kennedy Barossa Valley Grenache Blend 2020

My favourite of the field in a blind tasting - fruitier than you’d think. Smoother than you’d think. But no one else here thought so. I’m broken. — 6 months ago

This is still thriving: elegantly styled Left Bank offering with bright beam of pure cherry & currant, cassis, along w/endearing secondary layers of earth, leather, herbaceousness, hint of pepper, tomato leaf and others... great complexity w/out being all over the place. Mid weight, mild tannins and great freshness. Impressive! — 3 years ago

Very different than the Angwin. Definitely not as integrated and needs more time. Best days ahead. — 3 years ago

@Shay A: I was not either. I would be interested in tasting it with a longer decant or in a few years.

Kathryn Kennedy

Blanc de Blanc Sparkling Wine 2005

Deep, dark yellow. Aromas of Meyer lemon, almonds, dough and a fruity hint. Lemon flavors, biscuit with a creamy vanilla finish.

Winemaker will probably stop producing, hard to get the bottles and hand riddled.
