Svetoni

This fully mature Brunello presents itself with quiet dignity, offering an aromatic profile shaped by time rather than power. The bouquet opens with dried cherry, macerated plum, and fig, followed by balsamic nuances, cedar, and worn leather.

Cantenac Margaux 3rd Growth Classification

The 1976 Château Boyd-Cantenac is a well-aged Third Growth Margaux, originating from a hot and dry vintage that resulted in early harvests. While 1976 Bordeaux wines initially showcased ripe fruit and richness, some lacked long-term balance due to the extreme weather conditions. Now, nearly 50 years later, this vintage remains an interesting but fragile example of aged Margaux.

With time, this wine has developed delicate tertiary aromas, though reports suggest that its bouquet fades quickly once opened. On the palate, it may exhibit softened fruit, earthy notes, and a tired structure, indicating that it has likely surpassed its peak. …

Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe (High-shoulder)

Mahogany core with deep brick rim. The nose is actually better than I anticipated with some dusty black fruits, cedar a touch of game, but it certainly lacks vigour and cohesion. The palate is a little tawdry, slightly hollow with an cooked character that jars against some obvious green berries that found themselves fermenting. Linear towards the dry finish, moderate length.
