It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a beautiful one from Bordeaux. Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim. Fruity nose with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, vanilla, spices, espresso, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and black pepper. Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, light vanilla, earth, wet leaves, herbs, peppercorn, pencil lead, dark coffee, dark chocolates and tobacco leaf. Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries. This 7 year old, from the great 2015 vintage, is drinking very nice right now. This Fifth growth Bordeaux is showing nice complexity, with a soft and elegant mouthfeel. Good right out of the bottle, and better after 3 hours in the decanter. Young, but already delicious, and will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years. Robert Parker 97 points. Good by itself as a sipping wine, and good with food too. Will pair nicely with a nice piece of steak. A Delicious wine that drank better than the 1996 I had 4 years ago. A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Aged in French oak barrels (50% new) for 16 months. 13.5% alcohol by volume. 93 points. $130.

Too young, but hey, that’s why I bought a few. So I could try over time. On opening, it’s quite saline with high acid. It’s refined with blue and red fruit. After a few hours, it starts to integrate more. Can’t wait to taste it on day 2.

We visited there in the early summer of 2015 and now we got to try the fruits of their labor in the vineyard we witnessed at that time. A bio-dynamic vineyard with horse and plow

Dark ruby with red rim. Fruity on the nose, black and red fruit, cedar, black pepper, tobacco. Upon opening dry, fruit, earthy. Nice mouthfeel, chewy tannins, with a great long finish. Softened up in the glass. Drinking very well now but with many years left.

At $85 I bought every bottle they had. Initially closed but opening up after an hour. Still very young and great potential. Black currents, red fruits and leathery goodness. Really enjoyable and looking forward to the remaining bottles in a few years.

Jammy, and fruit forward. Tannins have settled. Enjoyable.

Dit is voorlopig de laatste die we openen. 3u luchten is nodig om dit aantrekkelijk te maken. Het bal opent met kersenyoghurt in de neus. That’s a first. Maar dan is het klassiek Bordeaux met veel cassis, zwarte bessen, bramen, grafiet, eucalyptus (wat voor mij niet zou hoeven). Zuren verdwijnen met het luchten. Maar dit gaat toch eerst wat jaren achterin de kast, ouderen.
