Plummy

Château Cantemerle

Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 1999

Gary Westby
9.4

My style with NY steak. Minty,
Plummy, sweet fruited, seamless, but also refreshing. I hogged the bottle a little, but at 12.5 it was as mild as mothers milk. It should have been a magnum. — 11 years ago

Just enjoyed a bottle of 1996 last night, and Claude informed me y'all had enjoyed wine previously, which was only overshadowed by her Father's 1966!

Château Figeac

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1978

Ron Siegel
9.5

Very interesting wine showing black currants and red plummy fruits, mocha, cedar, fruit cake and a hint of vanilla. This is round, rich and has a creamy texture. — 11 years ago

Always a pleasure to try old vintages and see how they evolved, cheers

Château Samion

Lalande-de-Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Lyle Fass
9.1

Project of Jean Claude Berrouet who made 40+ vintages of Petrus. Really lovely nose. Classic right bank. Plummy. Cocoa. Focused. Palate is ripe with terrific acidity out of the gates and lovely balance. Intense structure. A bit out of sorts out of the bottle but it is all there. Will be fun to track. — 11 years ago

Wonderful full plummy nose with just hint of earth. Big and full bodied. Soft but full tannins with lots of dark fruits balanced by light earth tones. Long, full, supple finish with nice earth and acidity. — 12 years ago

Really a nice style of Merlot, with lots of plummy fruit and a streak of acidity down the middle to keep it fresh. Mid-weight and food friendly. — 11 years ago

Seriously cool stuff here. South African old vine tinta barroca! Dense and plummy but with animal bacon fat quality to it. A tad pricy, but worth it just to see what it's all about. — 11 years ago

Wow. Top of the list. So velvety in texture, with a solid core of red-and-black plummy fruits. Mocha. Cigar. Graphite. Underbrush. Central Park South. — 12 years ago

Central Park south may be the most supreme bordeaux descriptor I've ever heard👌
