Yalumba

The Signature Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2016

The many types of oak create a lot of classic cab and Shiraz notes that evolve in the glass--black currant, graphite, clay, black pepper, cocoa, dill, vanilla. Plush blackberry jam on the palette. Super soft tannins typical of South Australia reds that barely need time to breathe. — 12 hours ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1989

Shows a little bit of funky, faint Brett aromas, flavors are rich, dark-fruited, and more youthful than the ‘86 Mouton which we also opened, long, lingering finish, very fine!! — 14 hours ago

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Medium ruby , quite narrow ruby pink rim . Light spice and mix of summer fruits , floral , seashell , mineral notes . Touch of scorched earth and cocoa . On the palate a mix of summer fruits, with a saline kick in the mid palate , long and involving, balanced alcohol, very balanced acidity with velvety but noticeable tannins . Very elegant and graceful . Will need time, but less than the Haut Brion , in 15-20 years this will be fantastic . — 7 hours ago

Château Péby Faugères

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2001

Surprisingly young in the bottle with a beautiful garnet color and characteristic Bordeaux sous bois on the nose. Hints of cedar and toasted oak to complement dark fruit and ever present tannic structure. A delight! — 12 hours ago

Sine Qua Non

Distenta I Grenache 2019

Wow, what a great wine. Needed decanting. I was worried it would be too young, but it is not; will be great to keep the other bottles longer though. Great nose and amazing how well the high alcohol content is integrated - very subtle and not off-putting at all. Intense wine with red and dark berries that also give it a nice acidity level. Vanilla notes and amazingly smooth well-integrated tannins. This might get even better with more air, but it is already a fantastic wine, glad I opened it tonight. — 14 hours ago
