Medoc
Château Duhart Milon
Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon - Merlot Blend 1993
Presented double-blind. The wine pours a slightly translucent garnet with an orange rim; medium viscosity with moderate staining and some signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of dried and ripe, red and black fruits: brambles, Bing cherry, old wood and old leather bound books, baking chocolate, grated nutmeg, organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ (resolved) tannins and medium+ acidity. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Called Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend from France, Bordeaux, Left Bank, Medoc, 1990. LOL…that’s pretty close! For those wondering, the bottle was opened and decanted for sediment several hours prior. For my palate, Duhart-Milon needs decades to become interesting. Fully mature now though, this has at least a decade of enjoyable life left. — 8 months ago
Château Lanessan
Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2019
Young but accessible already. Love this classic haut medoc palate: Blackcurrant, dark cherry, clove, earthiness, cigarboxes & pencil shavings. Pretty classic in profile and with a great potential. — 2 years ago

Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours
Grande Réserve Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend
2016 vintage. Apart from their huge Margaux vineyards (about 100 hectares), Château Giscours also owns 60 hectares of Haut-Medoc vineyards. This 2016 is drinking beautifully now, smooth and sensual. Good value too at less than 20 euros. Reportedly a 50/50 Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blend. Abv. 13%. — 2 years ago
