Comte De Saint Emmanuel

Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2020

Purplish in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and black pepper.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Mourvedre from Bandol. Rich and fruit forward with nice complexity. Elegant with lots of fruits and chocolate notes.

This 5 year old is drinking beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 25 years.

A good sipping wine that will also pair nicely with food.

A blend of 90% Mourvedre and 10% Grenache. Aged in used French oak barrels for 18 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$50.

Day 2 notes. Nose of blueberry and blackberry, granite and graphite. Dark and rich but super mineral as well. Palate is energetic and fresh but also dark and rich with blackberry and blueberry galore. Young and disjointed as it was yesterday but it’s all there. Check back in 5 years — 3 years ago

Light orange in color.

Light nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing raspberries, strawberries, currants, lemons, peaches, spices, sea salt and light earth.

Tangy finish with grapefruits and limes.

This is a young Rosé from Bandol. Spicy and fruit forward. Elegant with a soft mouthfeel.

Nicely balanced and already showing nice complexity.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

Good right out of the bottle and good by itself as a sipping wine.

I love this wine. One of the best St. Jo Blancs. Nose is expansive and ripe with exotic tropical fruits and lots of gras. Also granite and lime jelly and liquified lemon jelly. Sea air as well. So clean. Palate is so finesse driven with awesome texture and depth. Energy from granite but definetly not for acid heads. Rich, long finish with tropical fruits and granite. Needs air. — 2 years ago

Château Tertre Daugay

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

Nice bottle for $50.00, decant an hour so & you’re set
Info I found on the dark web as follows,

This property possesses 16 hectares of vines (60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc) and was purchased in 1978 by Comte Léo de Malet Roquefort, the owner of Château La Gaffelière. In June 2011 it was acquired by the Clarence Dillon group, which also owns Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion. Its new owner decided to rename the property, starting with the 2011 vintage. Château Tertre Daugay, the fifth cru classé to be acquired by the Clarence Dillon group, became Château Quintus.The property is located on a high promontory that forms the edge of the Saint Emilion plateau. It commands a panoramic view far into the distance of the surrounding villages and the Dordogne Valley. It is here that, since time immemorial, a watchtower has stood to guard the village of Saint Emilion. The exceptional microclimate is due to the area's diversity in terms of soil, slopes and orientation. Consequently, it comes as no surprise that in 1844 and 1848 the wine was among the 14 most sought-after and expensive in Saint Emilion. For nearly a century, Bordeaux et ses Vins, the standard reference work produced by Cocks and Féret, listed the property as a Saint Emilion Premier Cru. The property was also one of the prestigious vineyards in Saint Emilion to win a gold medal at the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1867.

Excellent winemaker. Their rosé is my favourite. And the main Bandol Mourvèdre is always a winner in my book.

@Raun Kupiec I visited them this summer. Very good quality and indeed, their rosé is fabulous. I also bought the Chateau Pibarnon 2019 which I will be opening soon

I was there about 10 years ago. Beautiful spot up in the hills. Rang the bell at the door. And they were really nice and talkative as we tasted.
