2011 @bodegaluigibosca Gala 1 - Time and cellaring have been kind to this wine. Blend of Malbec, Petit Verdot and Tannat. Deep in colour given the three grapes involved. Complex nose - aromas of red and black berries, vanilla with hints of leather, graphite and meatiness. Palate holds fruit over long finish and notes of vanilla, spice and dark chocolate. Powerful and inky, ready for rich proteins, sharp cheeses or grilled mushrooms. #argentina #malbec #tannat #petitverdot #luigibosca #bodegasluigibosca @pacific_canada (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxxAhUnFkto/?igshid=1w6gtz7m36f4c

2003 Château Pontet-Canet is a much better wine than its vintage 2000 sibling. What the winemakers got wrong in 2000 was fixed in this 2003. No oak detectable in any way, shape or form. Cassis, ink, bacon fat and lead pencil on the nose. Beautiful, ripe currant, leather and eucalyptus on the palate. Finish for days and will age for decades longer. Phenomenal effort that has tons of balance and acidity despite being from a scorcher of a vintage. Stunning. #winesofinstagram #wine #vin #redwine #vinrouge #france #bordeaux #leftbank #rivegauche #pauillac #pontetcanet #pontet-canet #2003 #cabernetsauvignon #merlot #cabernetfranc #petitverdot https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqa8pLuHve1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3fldcd64haxx

2003 Château Branaire-Ducru is in an awkward phase...when I first poured this, it was hard to believe this was the same lush #wine I had tasted many years prior. It was incredibly backward and the fruit was in hiding. After many hours of air, the wine started emerging from its shell and provided a little more aroma and flavor. It did have the tell tale St. Julien cassis, pencil shavings and cigar box, but it never fully emerged from hiding. With bottles like this I find it hard to know if it was the particular bottle that is the issue or if other bottles would show the same profile. Not 100% sure what to recommend here, but based on my past history with this estate and vintage, I am leaning towards "hold". #vin #redwine #vinrouge #winesofinstagram #france #bordeaux #stjulien #branaireducru #cabernetsauvignon #merlot #petitverdot #2003 #leftbank #saintjulien #chateaubranaireducru #grandcruclasse

2002 Château Lagrange (St. Julien) is a very fine #wine. Going on being 16 years old, this still comes out of the bottle black and angry, and with bold vanilla and coffee notes which indicates this saw oodles of new oak...but as I followed this for two days and gave it air, it kept changing and coming into balance. It mellowed and became more focused with beef blood, black currant, tobacco, and a pepper/salt note on the finish. For those of you who have not been buying Bordeaux for long...I purchased three bottles of this in 2005 for $26 each. Insane value even considering I have stored it for over a decade. #vin #france #bordeaux #leftbank #rivegauche #cabernetsauvignon #medoc #stjulien #lagrange #chateaulagrange #saintjulien #winesofinstagram #redwine #vinrouge #merlot #petitverdot #2002
