Fronsac, Libournais

Château La Vieille Cure

Fronsac Red Bordeaux Blend 2020

Pop and pour (practically) — can’t be helped.

NOSE: something savory, blackberry, and a little violet. Mild clove. A little clay. Something…Mexican?

TASTE: juicy, purple cassis and clay. Fresh and tasty. The kind of wine I like, basically. Blueberry pie after air. 93.

Château La Fleur-Pétrus

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend

We found the wine is no longer what it used to be. Very modern vinification and upbringing, lots of new wood, and likely a malolactic in barrel. Well done but nothing like in the Jean-Claude Berrouet days. — 4 days ago

Floral, deep, violet nose.
Ripe and beautiful, rich but not over-extracted. Grainy, gravelly and somewhat chalky tannins. Beautiful wine.

Château de Sales

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

2021 vintage. Big earth evident throughout the performance. Light-medium body. If you prefer a leaner style, this just might be your jam. 04.09.25. — 6 days ago

Château L'Eglise-Clinet

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2024

Seriously good stuff here. Soo deep and complex. Rocky firm tannins but with a velvety touch all the way thru.
Absolutely beautiful aftertaste where all the feminine touch of Pomerol turns out superbly. Very, very good wine.

2018 vintage. Last tasted 02.21.22 (9.5). Same tonight. Expressive nose and great body. On the path to pleasure. Really difficult to source this specific vintage currently. Grrr. 04.07.25. — 8 days ago

C’est la fête de la fraîcheur !
Nice tension and balance.
Gentle soaking extraction.
Little uneven ripeness feel on the mouth.
But overall nicely integrated.
May turn really lovely with time.
