Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Popped and poured while I prep dinner. Nice medley of red and dark fruit, with bitter tobacco leaf and soil. Well balanced, juicy and chewy and very good.

Château La Tour-Martillac

Birth year wine.
"Looks like a tricky one"... if I had a dollar for every time I heard that.
This is Chateau Latour Martillac, Graves, 1975.
This wine is slightly over the hill, but has survived 50 years. Just like me.
I'm assuming this is Cabernet, Merlot, and maybe something else. Fine, pale brick color. The nose is lively and generous with fruit, though there is a bit of grandma's basement.
The palette is driven by tertiary flavors. Mushroom, truffle, wet leaves, and pencil tend to drown out a bit of dark cherry. A little astringent. Maybe some Petit Verdot.
I wouldn't kick this out of bed for eating crackers, but I would prefer it with some lamb.
Hope you all are having an awesome Sunday!

Excellent sour from the folks down in Dexter, Michigan, made with starfruit, raspberries, and red lava salt. To paraphrase Jack from Sideways: “Raspberries, yeah. Not the red lava salt.” Still an excellent beer! — 6 years ago
