Château d'Esclans

Whispering Angel Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend

Not a rose fan but I like this one. Tart up front but then a smooth finish. Pretty color. Perfect warm weather lunch wine. — 10 years ago

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1986

Usually have the best wine of the week at Sunday lunch. The 86 Latour is this weeks wine of the week. Hi Tannic year in Bordeaux and many experts think that Latour lost the plot in 86 with most thinking that Mouton was the wine of the vintage. This wine had lots of leather savouriness with no fruit character but still a class act. A good wine but not at the usual superlative Latour standard. — 11 years ago

Bonneau du Martray

Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay 2000

From mag. A little tight and lacked some acidity but a solid lunch wine ;-)
There was also a mag of '86 Domaine Tollot corton Charlemagne there that showed better. It was dark and cloudy but showed some nice age and character with a baked apple. 91.

Tenuta San Guido

Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 1997

1997 Tenuta San Guido Bolgheri Sassicaia. Drank at lunch at ReddWood. Compared it to the 1998, which was a more heralded year. I preferred this wine as it was drinking more readily, but K preferred the 1998, which he thought drank more interestingly and was more nuanced, despite being slightly more tight and tannic. — 10 years ago

Domaine Auguste Clape

Cornas Syrah 2004

2004 vintage. Lunch with Gerard Basset at Hotel TerraVina. 1 hour decant. Dark ruby hue. Wonderful nose of leather, sweet spices, roasted meats, mulberry and blackberry, dark chocolate and licorice. Although developing still very fresh and youthful despite the obvious complexity of aromas. On the palette, the tannins hit you hard - grippy; high acidity that starts off quite searing but with air becomes rounder and attractive. Medium plus body and full concentration. Long finish. Gerard loved it and so did I! — 11 years ago

Domaine Jamet

Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2005

Finally getting caught up on stuff I had in France. This needed more time open than we could give it during lunch, but went down quickly nonetheless. Deep and meaty and bloody with a touch of floral lift. Fully resolved tannins and incredible length. — 11 years ago
