Chateau Cantegril Sauternes 2018 half bottle

By |May 25, 2023|Categories: , , , |

Château Cantegril Sauternes 2018 is a dessert wine produced in the Sauternes appellation of Bordeaux, France. Sauternes wines, including Château Cantegril, are renowned for their unique production process involving the development of noble rot. This fungus, known as Botrytis cinerea, affects the grapes and concentrates their sugars, resulting in a wine with rich sweetness and complex flavors. Château Cantegril Sauternes 2018 is primarily made from Sémillon grapes, which contribute to the wine's lush and opulent character. It also includes smaller proportions of Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, adding to the wine's aromatic profile and overall balance. Château Cantegril Sauternes 2018 offers an enticing bouquet of ripe stone fruits such as apricot and peach, along with notes of honey, citrus zest, and a touch of tropical fruits. On the palate, it displays a velvety texture and a harmonious balance between the wine's sweetness and lively acidity. The flavors unfold layers of dried fruits, candied orange peel, honeyed almonds, and a hint of vanilla. The wine finishes with a lingering, honeyed sweetness. Château Cantegril Sauternes 2018 is a versatile wine that pairs exceptionally well with various desserts and cheese. It is an excellent companion to foie gras, blue cheese, crème brûlée, fruit tarts, and poached pears. The wine's sweetness and acidity create a delightful interplay with the flavors of these dishes, enhancing the overall dining experience.

Clos Apalta 2019

By |February 23, 2023|Categories: , , |

A world class Blend in the Bordeaux tradition. The Merlot offers up black fruit aromas such as black cherry and blackberry, all with wonderful freshness on the palate. The Cabernet Sauvignon, in particular from old pre-phylloxera vines, offers up aromas of red fruit (raspberry) and black fruit (blackcurrant, blueberry) with some ripe bell pepper and black olive notes. As it matures it develops pepper, crème de cassis, leather and charred notes (smoke, toast and chocolate). The Carmenère, brightly coloured with hints of purple, is rich with rounded tannins. There are delicate cherry aromas on the nose, subtly balanced out by spicy touches of black pepper. Freshness on the palate ensures a beautiful finish of black fruit, smoke, cocoa, leather and tobacco notes.

Chateau Margaux Pavillon Rouge 2018

By |October 20, 2022|Categories: , , , |

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 93 points: "The 2018 Pavillon Rouge is a blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 9% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, with 14.5% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with vivacious scents of chocolate-covered cherries, mulberries and blackcurrant pastilles with suggestions of bay leaves, pencil lead, tapenade and dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a generous amount of black fruit at the core with loads of earthy and savory accents and a soft, approachable frame, finishing long with an herbal lift. It is approachable now but should be a lot more expressive with a couple of years in bottle and drink nicely over the following 15 to 18 years or more."

Chateau Haut-Batailley 2015

By |July 8, 2022|Categories: , , , |

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 94 points:  "The 2015 Haut Batailley is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon and 28% Merlot, matured in 60% new oak. It was picked between 21 September until 2 October. It is a level up from the 2015 Lacoste Borie with much more fruit intensity: blackberry, boysenberry, tobacco and cedar aromas. It gathers momentum in the glass and develops a subtle mint accent. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, lithe tannin, very well balanced with just a slight tinniness that will disappear by the time in bottle. I love the pencil shaving sprinkled over the aftertaste here. With very good substance and impressive length, this is a classic Pauillac that I suspect will offer 25 or 30 years of pleasure."

Krasno Ribolla 2018

By |May 13, 2022|Categories: , |

Over the centuries, heroic winegrowers have tenaciously terraced the steep marl slopes below the little village of Krasno to plant their vines. This unique land produces distinctly mineral authentic wines, with a character only found in Slovenia’s Goriška Brda region. Grapes: 100% Ribolla Gialla Aroma: reminiscent of Mediterranean citruses and cedar – rounded with a delicate note of vanilla and fresh bread crust Taste: elegant, fresh and harmonious; a slight touch of sweet tannins in a long conclusion Food pairing: refreshing salads, white fish and shellfish, vegetable risottos and pasta with vegetable sauces

Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2020

By |May 7, 2022|Categories: , , , |

Allocated and rare product

Wine Spectator | 100 points: "An estate that has been on fire of late, the 2020 Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse De Lalande is another brilliant wine in a succession of brilliant wines. Revealing a dense purple hue as well as full-bodied aromas and flavors of blac currants, scorched earth, tobacco leaf, and violets, it hits the palate with an expansive, rich, yet pure, precise texture that carries fabulous tannins, perfect balance, and a stacked mid-palate. Based on 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 6% Cabernet Franc, it's an incredible wine that's going to flirt with perfection and is unquestionably one of the finest, if not the finest, Left Banks in the vintage. Bravo. Tasted twice."
