This is the second label of the chateau where the Moueix family, famous for Petrus, first started making wine. The fields spread across the north-northwest hills of Saint-Emilion, 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc on clay-calcareous... Read More

The dense ruby/purple-colored 2003 is surprisingly fresh and crisp, displaying no signs of the vintage’s extreme heat. This full-bodied, powerful, rich, backward, dense, tannic effort reveals notes of Chinese black tea,... Read More

Pure dark cherry aromas with subtle woodsy notes. The palate is soft with nice fruit tannins and delicate fruit. Easy, classic, and food friendly.

The Château l'Eglise-Clinet 1995 was served from magnum and bottle side-by-side, both ex-château with Denis Durantou. To be honest, the difference in the bouquet is noticeable, but not huge. They both deliver those... Read More

Château Lafite Rothschild is a wine estate in France, owned by members of the Rothschild family since the 19th century. The name Lafite comes from the surname of the La Fite family.

Tasted at the 'First Growth' lunch in London. Nice clear colour. The bouquet definitely has more vigour then previous bottles encountered, with sandalwood, cigar box and cedar to the fore. Not a complex nose, but nicely... Read More

The 1966 Latour remains an exemplar of the vintage, certainly one of the best, if not the best Left Bank wine of the vintage. Here, served blind, its quality was a beacon, quintessentially Pauillac with that trademark graphite... Read More

Tasted at dinner at Domaine de Chevalier. The Latour ’70 can be such a variable beast. This is certainly one of the better, more representative bottles. Deep garnet in colour, nice limpidity in the glass. It has a beautiful... Read More

Dark intense fruit; cooked cherry, licorice, currant, and hints of baking chocolate. Intense and concentrated on palate. Ripe cherry, licorice, blackberry followed dry tannins and a tightly wound fruit on the finish.
