Château Bouscaut

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

Aspect Visuel: Robe rubis profond aux reflets grenat, légèrement évoluée sur le bord du disque. Belle brillance et intensité colorante. Nez: Premier nez expressif révélant des arômes de fruits noirs mûrs (cassis, mûre), enrichis de notes épicées (poivre noir, clou de girofle) et d'une touche boisée élégante (vanille, cèdre). À l'aération, des nuances de sous-bois, de cuir et de tabac émergent, témoignant d'une évolution harmonieuse. Bouche: L'attaque est souple et équilibrée, offrant une belle fraîcheur. La structure tannique est présente mais bien fondue, avec des tanins mûrs et soyeux. Le milieu de bouche révèle une matière fruitée concentrée (fruits noirs, prune) soutenue par des notes épicées et une légère touche de torréfaction. La finale est persistante avec une agréable fraîcheur et des notes de réglisse et de cacao. — 8 months ago

Château Haut-Brion

Le Clarence de Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Medium ruby pink rim, quite thin rim. More dense and darker on the nose than the Chapelle . Dark plum , blackberry , dark cherry , touch of spice again , quite dense , with a touch of spice on the medium length finish . Lacks the elegance of the Chapelle , a bit more tannic and bigger boned , less fresh perhaps , but a touch more mineral also . Needs more time , another 3-5 years and will show well for a further 5 -8. Again successful but the La Chapelle just comes out in front , though this will be longer lived . — 10 months ago

Started off a bit tight but is smoothing out nicely. Most definitely Pessac in depth of flavor and complexity. — 9 years ago

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Quite bright medium ruby , ruby pink rim . Quite elegant and reserved , some red cherry, violet , summer fruits , scorched earth , touch of spice . On the palate quite elegant also , summer fruits, blackberry , blackcurrant , red plum . Good balanced acidity , herbal touches on the medium length , saline tinged finish . Quite polished but still grippy tannins . This is showing well , especially with food , but has a relatively long future , from now and over the next 5-10 years. A very successful second wine . — 10 months ago

Château Olivier

Pessac-Léognan Grand Cru Classé Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Archetypal Bordeaux - old world in style, but where the savory characteristics are well-integrated with common Bordeaux fruit notes. Well-structured and precise, with notes of blackberry, cassis, tobacco, cedar, and vanilla with a long, somewhat chalky finish. — 5 years ago

Château de la Louvière

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Opening with an interesting and unique orange zest character, then moving to tilled soil. Overall a fresh and mildly spiced nose. On the palate it shows the character but it’s quite harsh to undesired at the moment. — 6 months ago

Château Olivier

Pessac-Léognan Blanc White Bordeaux Blend 2022

2022 vintage. The website didn't update for the 2022 vintage yet, but according to Jeff Leve (the Wine Cellar Insider often has more recent info than the official websites), it is a blend of 75% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Sémillon. In any case, it is a beauty. Pineapple and white peach go hand in hand with floral and mineral aromas. It has a very round mouthfeel, but very fresh at the same time. Probably the finest value in Pessac-Léognan white Cru Classés these days. — 9 months ago

Marvelous #structure #aromas of #blackberries and #cassis #charred oak. The berry bush in the most subtle and elegant way. Pleasantly surprised by this wine. I believe it has great aging potential. Great now and will be smooth and more complex in the future. — 10 years ago
