Vine Hill Ranch

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Decanted for 2 hours. VHR rewards you for the wait. Color is light suggesting a simple body. Body is tall and complex. I savored every drop. A treat. — 11 years ago

Château Palmer

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

#2006 #ChateauPalmer #Yumm 57% #CabSauvignon 44% #Merlot Juicy Black & Red Fruit, earthy, tobacco, slight touch of Chocolate... Very brooding... I didn't jot down notes because I was too in the moment! I can say that I LOVED every drop! After trying the 1989 the night before, & the 1999 Alter Ego the same night... This one stood its ground. All beautiful 👏👏👏🍷🍷🍷 Chateau Palmer I Love you. ❤️ #Cheers

10 year Bordeaux...Bravo. The tannins have settled somewhat with the result being that this wine's structure, acidity, frame and finish are all in alignment. Rich dark fruits,cassis and Christmas cake. Such a joyfully smooth drop. — 11 years ago
