Celebrating my wife’s 31st birthday with some of her favorite things: friends, pizza, and wine. Been a while since I’ve had anything from H-M. I enjoyed this selection and thought it drank nicely. Brambly dark fruits, medium body, decent complexity.

Solid Left-Bank example from Wegman’s. Aging well. Bordeaux out-competing California for the premium grocery store market.

Always excellent stuff that punches well above its weight.

NOSE: fur-bearing critter … earth, iron … cacao … a bit of cassis. Savoury. Pine and forest. TASTE: iron, blackberry, cassis, MEATY, orange chocolate, leaves…good old fashioned dirt. Great deal. Could certainly age a while. 92. NOTE: I tasted this a year ago (I forgot!) and notes were different. Unsure if it’s me, the bottle, or the extra year of age. Anyway, I liked it both times!

Poured through an aerator and sat for 15 minutes… NOSE: strong, clear cassis. Meat. Pine, forest. Very mild chocolate and a little ash - and some raisin - but the cassis dominates. Taste: medium weight, elegant, fruity bordeaux, with enough tannin to balance it perfectly - as on the nose, cassis and dark berry flavors dominate, but with a good herbal backbone. Simpler than I’d hoped, but just so very well made it doesn’t matter. Would love to taste this in a few years. 92.
