Story of my life. #premox strikes again. These #Bordeaux whites from #Medoc #Pauillac and #SaintEmilion are all oxidized. The Petit Cheval is the colour of Yquem (perhaps because they share an owner, lol). They are all undrinkable. Even the Diam cork could not save Chevalier.

Tonight’s Commanderie de #Bordeaux à Ottawa #tasting Lynch-Bages vs Pontet-Canet #Pauillac #wine #Medoc Perhaps not the greatest years but should be a fun comparison.
If you want to see a Dallas Commanderie de #Bordeaux #Paulée look at this video of some of the #wine tasted. #Pauillac #SaintEstephe #SaintEmilion #SaintJulien #Margaux #Pomerol #Graves #Pessac #Sauternes
Thank you to my #Bordeaux fanatic friends in Dallas for supplying the #wine for a great evening. Love Y from @Yquem_Official Lovely balance. @ChateauPalmer and @PichonComtesse 2000 were signing. Still need 5-10 years though. VCC unfortunately corked. #Margaux #Pauillac #Medoc
Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste Pauillac Grand Cru Classé 2017, Bordeaux, France It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim. Earthy nose with black fruits and chocolate notes. Medium plus in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, spices, oak, licorice, dark chocolates, coffee, light vegetables, herbs and black pepper. Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries. This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Paulliac. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Complex, elegant and fruit forward. This 9 year old is peaking now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. Easy drinking, and good by itself or with food. A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot. Aged in (75% new) French oak barrels for 17 months. 13.5% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $85.

Methinks the Commanderie de #Bordeaux à Ottawa will have a fine dinner experience tomorrow night. #Pomerol #wine #Pauillac #Sauternes
Blind #wine #tasting arranged by Commanderie de #Bordeaux Sarasota. Got three of the communes and vintages right and managed to identify Canon and Rauzan-Ségla. I need more practice. #Pomerol #Margaux #Pauillac #SaintEmilion #SaintJulien
OK. It’s official. To hell with dry January. #Bordeaux #wine #Pauillac #Margaux #Pessac and #Champagne

Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste Pauillac Grand Cru Classé 2020, Bordeaux, France It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Purple in color with a purplish rim. Fresh fruits on the nose with cedar, licorice and chocolates notes. Medium plus in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with black currants, black plums, blackberries, light oak, spices, chocolates, coffee, licorice, light vegetables, tobacco, light earth, herbs and black pepper. Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries. This is a delicious 5 year old Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Pauillac. Elegant, fruit forward and rich. Wine Spectator 96 points. Wine Advocate 94 points. Still young, and a tad subdued at the moment, but with good structure and nice complexity. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Already showing a great mouthfeel, nicely balanced and good by itself or with food. A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Merlot. Aged in (75% new) French Oak barrels. A great sipping wine that will also pair nicely with a big piece of steak. 13.5% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $90.

A Latour a day doesn’t seem to keep the doctor away…..I think that makes sense. Maybe. More 2023s here. Full report on Winedoctor in January. #latour #chateaulatour #pauillac #bdx2023 #bordeaux #wine
Smart line-up at Mouton-Rothschild for my 2023 tasting at the château, with Petit Mouton, d’Armailhac & Clerc-Milon alongside. Rumours that we also tasted 1945 Mouton Cadet are unfounded. #mouton #moutonrothschild #petitmouton #darmailhac #clercmilon #pauillac #bordeaux #bdx2023 #wine
Can’t pass up the opportunity to walk across the road after my tasting at Pichon-Baron to Pichon-Comtesse. Tasted the 2023 vintage here too. #pichoncomtesse #pichonlalande #pauillac #bordeaux #bdx2023 #wine
Stopped off at Lynch-Bages to meet Jean-Charles Cazes and team, and to taste the 2023 Lynch-Bages and 2023 Haut-Batailley, and their second wines. #lynchbages #hautbatailly #pauillac #bordeaux #wine #bdx2023
Short but enjoyable visit to Grand-Puy-Lacoste. Checked out the newly completed cellars before tasting the 2023s. #grandpuylacoste #pauillac #bordeaux #wine #bdx2023
Not a bad way to kick off my 2023 Bordeaux tastings! A 9am start at Lafite. #lafite #lafiterothschild #pauillac #bdx23 #bordeaux #wine
I’ve gone Bordeaux tonight. Might just have to add my note on this to my forthcoming Bordeaux 2015 at Ten Years report. #pauillac #pedesclaux #bdx2015 #chateaupedesclaux #bordeaux #wine
Château Pichon Baron
A majestic Second Growth near Pontet-Canet. Known for bold Cabernet and elegant balance — timeless Pauillac power and precision.
