First go round with this baddie. Tasted side by side with the L. Garnier Liqueur Fabriquée Par Les Pères Chartreux (9.8). Occupying a beautiful and necessary niche space between the Les Pères Chartreux and your standard yellow or green Chartreuse (9.3/9.5 respectively). This one is yellow and adds more honeycomb/beeswax along with increased intensity to the equation. Worth the pursuit. 8.25.25. — 4 months ago

Amongst the rarest elixirs I’ve ever had the privilege to try. “Une Chartreuse” is so scarce, many Chartreuse lovers don’t even know it exists. They make a yellow and a green and this is the only bottle I’ve seen of either. Perfect as far as I’m concerned. — 14 days ago

Clos Saint Georges L'Eglise Pomerol 2020, Bordeaux, France

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim, and medium plus intensity.

On the nose red cherries, plums, red currants, light oak, chocolates and spices.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, light oak, chocolates, spices, coffee, licorice, light tobacco leaf, earth and herbs.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 5 year old Merlot blend from Pomerol feels very young and not showing its age at all. Fruit forward with nice complexity and good balance. Elegant with good structure.

Starting to drink nicely now, and needs a few more years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 90 minutes of airtime, when the tannins show up and bring more structure. Spicy and entertaining.

Good by itself or with food.


A blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Aged in used French oak barrels for 12 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

The wood from Vat 147 smoothes this out and gives it a brandy feel. Less heat, more herbs and sweetness. — 3 months ago
