Château Croix De Mission

La Croix Bonis

Saint Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2018

Merlot dominates this blend but there is some Cabernet Sauvignon and some Cabernet Franc blended in. Medium ruby color with a slight clear meniscus. Fruit forward aromas and flavors of blackberry, black cherry, dark plum, baking spices and cedar. Medium-plus finish. Medium body and very silky tannins. Well balanced/layered acidity and a very silky texture. A bit more austere than a traditional Medoc red blend. At peak. — 9 days ago

One of the better Saint-Emilions I’ve drank. Rich cherry and tobacco. — a month ago

Château La Croix St. Georges

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

This is young...very young. However! This is already very impressive. Somewhat of a "if you know, you know" wine that has bags of potential. Give this 10 years and it will go up against almost any wine. Did an aged blind tasting against Dominus a few years ago and this smashed. Good one to have in your cellar! — 3 months ago

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 1998

+1 hour decant(decent chunky/fine sediment). A splendid medium dark ruby red color with bricking. On the nose: Tantalizing perfumed notes of stewed plum/cherry, worn leather, smoke, forest floor, stewed meat, cedar, eucalyptus. Taste: creamy, elegant, with power and depth wine...plum, currants, smokey earth, graphite, saline, dusty crushed gravel, tobacco leaf, and a nice medium plus finish. YUM!! — 17 days ago

La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou

Saint Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.

Fruity nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black currants, plums, licorice, light oak, chocolates, herbs, coffee, earth, spices, tobacco leaf and black tea.

Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Bordeaux is still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself.

Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Complex and interesting. Fruit forward and elegant.

Easy drinking at this point, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot. Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$65.

Your camera must be playing a trick because it doesn't look ruby in the glass 😅✌️

Mission Hill Family Estate

Oculus Estate Bottled Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Luscious tannins, smooth body. Now was the time to drink the 2015 vintage….it couldn’t wait any longer. Intense black fruit, plum and spice on the palette. A delicious BC Bordeaux blend. Reminiscent of a Napa Cab. — 18 days ago

Domaine Bernard Baudry

La Croix Boissée Chinon Cabernet Franc 2014

Crimson with a cherry red tinge. A certain pong on the nose - a cowyard note but not off putting - I like it. On the medium bodied palate black fruits and sour cherry. Highly savoury on the palate. The cowyard notes remained throughout the 3 to 4 hour time frame to consume the bottle. I drink very few Loire Valley reds but on the basis of this wine I should drink more. — a month ago
