St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Needs a good couple of hours to open up to opulent dark fruit with great integration on the palate and velvety tannins. Cheers. — 15 days ago

Cheval des Andes

Mendoza Malbec Blend 2016

iI have said it before, and I will say it again. Bordeaux comes to Argentina with a brilliantly robust wine that is worthy of bearing the Cheval name.. — a month ago

Château Cheval Blanc

Le Petit Cheval Bordeaux Blanc 2020

Presented to me double-blind at Tasting Group. In the glass, the wine is a white wine with a pale straw color; medium viscosity and no signs of particles or gas. On the nose, the wine is youthful with powerful notes of grapefruit, lemon curd, some grassy herbal notes, and faint honeysuckle. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+, almost high acid. Confirming the notes on the nose. The finish is super long and has a luxurious texture.

Initial conclusions: this could be Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Riesling, Albariño or even Chardonnay from France, the United States, Germany, or Spain. But there is something about that herbal character that just has me in Sauvignon Blanc land and the rich honeyed, juicy texture makes me think this has some Semillon in it…and it’s seen some deft oak treatment. This is a beautiful wine and I think someone was being generous at Tasting Group for the holidays.

Final conclusion: So I’m going Sauvignon Blanc based Bordeaux Blanc blend from France, from Bordeaux, from Pessac-Leognan, 2020. Wrong Bank. Well I’ll be damned! I’ve never had Cheval Blanc’s…ahem, blanc. What a wine! This can be laid down for decades but it’s already special in its youth.
