Château Les Hauts De Perey

Château Perey Chevreuil

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2020

2020 vintage. Last tasted 2.26.25 (9.2). Still consistently hard knox and durty sox and performing as such. Dunno for how long but, for now, nailing the trapeze act. 08.30.25. — a month ago

Château Smith Haut Lafitte

Les Hauts de Smith Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of ripe red fruit, rose petals, dried red flowers and eucalyptus. Red and black cherry/raspberry and boysenberry fruit on the palate along with additional notes of chocolate, toffee, savory spices and mint. Well integrated oak on the long and slightly chewy finish. Rustic, well balanced and beautifully aged. Thanks for sharing this one, Ron B! — 3 months ago

Les hauts de Larrivet Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan White Bordeaux Blend 2021

Les Hauts de Larrivet Haut-Brion 2021
Pessac-Léognan AOC, Bordeaux, France 🇫🇷

Overview
Second wine of Château Larrivet Haut-Brion, this blend of 78% Sauvignon Blanc and 22% Sémillon showcases the elegance and freshness typical of white Bordeaux. It balances fruit intensity with minerality and spice, offering a refined but approachable profile.

Aromas & Flavors
Bright notes of lemon peel, orange zest, ripe melon, and honeyed lemon. Layers of lemon curd, pineapple, and white peach skins are interlaced with spice, vanilla, and mint, plus a touch of green apple for lift.

Mouthfeel
Medium-to-full-bodied with rich texture and lively acidity. The palate carries citrus and orchard fruits with a spicy edge, leading to a long, refreshing finish. Balanced and energetic, with power but no heaviness.

Winemaking Notes
Carefully selected fruit is vinified to highlight Sauvignon Blanc’s freshness and Sémillon’s structure. Aging in oak adds depth and subtle spice while preserving clarity of fruit.

Food Pairing
Ideal with grilled scallops, roasted chicken with herbs, lobster risotto, or creamy goat cheese. Its structure also allows it to handle lightly spiced Asian seafood dishes.

Verdict
A well-structured and aromatic Bordeaux Blanc that punches above its “second wine” status. Already drinking beautifully but with the potential to age gracefully for several years. Elegant, versatile, and a smart buy from Pessac-Léognan.
