Domaine du Pegau

Cuvée Réservé Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2010

On the eye it’s definitely showing some age and sediment. The nose is dusty, leathery, and smokey with blueberry and plum. The pallet is earthy and well integrated upfront. No outliers just beautiful flow: mushroom, game, dark fruit, some vanilla, still bold, low alcohol, medium tannic and round finish.

This bottle and I have history; after ten years of carrying it, babying it, and nurturing it. I decided to pop it open for my forty second nameday. Could have gone several more years, easy, but it was perfect timing for me, and this is why I love wine. Cheers.

Sounds good. Happy Birthday. I have had some Brett problems with this Cuvée from the 2006 vintage.

My 08’s were very good as well, but they were at their peak I think. Believe I drank those last year or 2019. $125.00

Château Malescot St. Exupéry

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

2016 vintage. From Coravin. Medium body. Phenomenal smoky, mineral nose. Almost all traces of the baby fat gone. Transitioning from the teen years into young adulthood but still visiting the parents to do laundry on occasion. Tannins picking up and slowly becoming more pronounced. Need to taste this again in a year or two. Very promising. 5.9.24. — 2 years ago

Château Prieuré-Lichine

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

82 vintage still holding its own. Fruit is long gone, but still very smooth and all the qualities of a Margaux. Personally, my tastes have changed in the past 50 years…I would much prefer a bold and intense Howell Mountain cab to the subtleties of a good Bordeaux. — 4 years ago

Château Lafon-Rochet

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1995

Open. Last one. Blackberry violets meats lead pencils some baking spices. Fruit is mostly gone on palate. Still good tannins structure Open an hour. Leather comes though more. Fruit flavors of light blackberry bramble. Turned excellent over 2 hrs. — 3 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

Dali vintage. Still super alive and young, what fun wine to drink alongside Dali’s Wines of Gala book. Most of the fruit is gone, lots of terroir shining through — grape seeds and clay. Some sage / menthol. Literally no oxidative notes — 4 years ago

Clos Saint Michel

Cuvée Reserve Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2018

Sister in law opened this for me at her girls party. So good. — 4 years ago
