Château Barde-Haut

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Always a right-bank favorite of mine.. first time trying the '12. A touch leaner than previous vintages, but same overripe, richly textured palate I love. Mocha, oak, and blackberry dominate the palate while it lives up to every other '12 bordeaux with seamless tannins that are as smooth as ever. A whif of smoke and charcoal linger in the background.. A great drink for the money. — 8 years ago

Beckstoffer Georges III Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Third Vintage of this #cabernetsaugvinon #wine I've had and the consistency is again spot on. Tasted almost five hours after opened and still tight.

Closed aromas leaning towards cassis and blackberries. Fine, focused and extremely pure texture. Smooth finish with espresso and bitter cocoa. Definitely early, this wine will age for awhile. Lives up to top tier Rutherford quality.

Thousand Candles

Yarra Valley Shiraz Blend 2012

Open for 5 days. Other than maybe a little lactic character, no trace of oxidation. Very soft, generous, embraces my palate lovingly. Lots of layers and detail, good fruit but also savory. De stemmed, SO2 only at bottling. 75% Pinot iirc. — 9 years ago

Harlan Estate

Napa Valley Proprietary Red Blend 1997

An elegant and powerful wine made even better poured out of a magnum. Blackberry, cassis, graphite, cedar and cocoa with a taste of that Oakville dust in the finish. Overpriced but lives up to the hype. — 11 years ago
