Brioche, Fresh Citrus, Chalk, Nuts. Creamy. Laurent Perrie Brut @, Eva, 250125 — a month ago
Light bodied, low alcohol, bright acidity and soft tannins. Easy drinking summer red. Had it chilled. Great break from the usual. Fruit forward & funky. Great for a chill pizza night or to open on a hot day with friends on the deck. — 9 days ago
High expectations for this wine. Great vintage and great producer
Starts out dark and closed. Appears to need a lot of airtime. Into the decanter
2 hours later it’s paired with short ribs and the fattiness seems to bring out some better flavor and the dark flavors really complement the meat.
Post dinner this wine is beginning to show something but it’s still dark brooding and too tight.
I’m going to let the other bottles sit for a few years. I’ve found the more recent coombsville wines from 2019 and forward to me a lot more open and fruity. — a month ago
Beautiful glass filling nose with flowers and tar followed by dark bramble, smoke, leather and liquorice. Pretty chewy tannines and a long finish. Wine got very divergent notes and ratings on ct but I am liking this a lot. No blockbuster over extracted powerhouse but freshness and complexity. Very glad to have 5 more. — 25 days ago

The 2017 Paul Sauer is a Bordeaux blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc and 7% Merlot with good acidity integrated tannins and rich fruits showing through
A gorgeous offering and representing the art of blending in the South African wine business at the moment.
Excellent wine. And a worthy OTBN (22/2/25) wine — 10 days ago
