Neipperg Collection Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

This is nothing to write home about, but it's pretty solid for about $12. To my untrained palate, there are two kinds of not so great red wines: the ones that are over-oaked and have a bitter, astringent finish and the ones that are a little too light and the nose is a little too faint. The former isn't worth drinking. This is definitely the latter. There's nothing objectionable, but it's also not likely to be your first choice unless it's a Tuesday and you're the only one having a glass worth dinner. — 8 years ago

On the way out now but lovely aromatics, elegant midpalate, and beautiful green robe even at 9 years. — 9 years ago

Seigneurs d'Aiguilhe Comtes Von Neipperg Côtes de Castillon Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Amazing. It's fruity, but I've felt only a sweet, ripe plum. But the best is the rest: spicy aromas with leather and smoke like from smokehouse. I simply love it! — 5 years ago

Drank 1/18/19 at the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux event in Miami.  All wines from the 2016 Vintage.

Tasting pour, no formal notes taken.  Most of these wines are very tight, and will require 5-15 years to really come together.  Many will likely improve a few points with time.

Loads of red and black fruit with all the complexity you would expect. A close runner up for Right Bank WOTN for me. Always a favorite.

Count Stephan von Neipperg was pouring wine from his estate, and was happy to chat about the current vintage and other wines in his portfolio. A true gentleman.

Really nice mix of perfume, light red fruits, and a hint of bloody minerality. Light bodied, but good cleansing acidity and lots of fine-grained tannins, had it with a ribeye and it worked. — 11 years ago

Washington state used to grow some of this varietal long time ago. Not sure if there is still any around.

Worked for a winery that bought Hogue Cellars in WA, went through all their wines during our due diligence visit, Lemberger was my favorite. Doubt they still make it, a shame, was so good.
