Château Cantemerle

Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2009

Just a good GCC from a very good year. Great value for the reasonable price. Dark fruit and some shaped tannins promise at least 2 decades ahead. — 5 years ago

Montevertine

Le Pergole Torte Sangiovese 2016

Wine is going through a difficult period but contains such promise. Sharp, delineated, super long and super closedForget this for minimum ten years. I would probably score it higher in a few more years — 4 years ago

O'Shaughnessy

Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon

9.4

Good but too tight as others have said. It’s just too young. Certainly has incredible promise and strength now. But the 2014 has not found its way here in late 2019. It’s a wonderfully extracted and potent cab. Give it some time and it will likely yield outstanding rewards. - cheers — 5 years ago

Château Beauregard

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2020

Delectable Wine
9.3

The 2020 Beauregard has a well-defined bouquet with raspberry and cranberry fruit, cedar and light pencil box aromas. This fulfills its promise from barrel, while the palate is well balanced with pliant tannins, fresh and saline with a slightly ferrous finish. This is an excellent Beauregard that will give up to 20 years of drinking pleasure. (Neal Martin, Vinous, February 2023) — 2 years ago
