Saint Clair Brown

Château Léoville Poyferré

Saint Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2003

Delectable Wine
9.1

The 2003 Léoville-Poyferré has always been one of this infamous vintage’s success stories. Perhaps in recent years it has lost some of its vigour on the nose with black plum, brown spices, leather and that light Bovril aroma, but there is better delineation than many others. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and quite savoury. It is beginning to show some dryness and little monotony on the finish. I wonder whether its best days are behind it? Still a very decent showing however. Tasted at the Léoville-Poyferré vertical at the château with Sara Lecompte Cuvelier. (Neal Martin, Vinous, September 2022)

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1978

Red brown colour. Tannin fully resolved. Good balance.
Tobacco and coffee on nose and palate. Typical Bordeaux. Not as complex as expected

Saint Clair Family Estate

Dillons Point Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022

2022 Vintage served with chicken dinner. Have had the 2020 vintage and loved that one. This year is just as good. Citrus and guava notes, crisp and delicious! One of our favorites! — 2 months ago

Château Cos d'Estournel

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 1975

The Cos was decanted two hours earlier and that helped lift the aromatics. Slight brown on the edge but plenty of classic Bordeaux fruit. Good cork . Shows very well and was a nice addition to dinner. Still has life and vitality.👍👍 — 3 years ago
