St Julien 3rd Growth Classification - BBR labels

"A wonderfully successful wine, the 1970 Langoa smells and tastes comparable to a top Pauillac. A big, yet restrained bouquet of cedar and black currants is first rate. On the palate, the wine is ripe, weighty, rich, tannic, full bodied, and several years away from its zenith. This is Langoa at its best." Parker Bordeaux 3rd Ed.

Rating 87/100 (excellent)

Margaux 3me Cru Classe
Magnum

The 1970 Château Malescot St. Exupéry is a well-aged Third Growth Margaux, offering a glimpse into Bordeaux’s winemaking history. The 1970 vintage was one of the stronger years of the decade, producing structured and long-lived wines. While the Malescot St. Exupéry from this vintage has developed beautifully over more than 50 years, its condition will now vary depending on storage.

With a brick-red hue and softened edges, this wine presents a delicate bouquet of ripe red fruits, earthy undertones, and hints of minerality. The palate is ripe and rich, with softened tannins that still hold structure, though some bottles may show signs of fading. …

St Estephe 2eme Cru Classe
High shoulder

*** 92 Points Robert Parker ***

Reviews: "This is one 1970 that appears to possess the necessary components to develop into something special. It remains youthfully hard and astringent, but there is no doubting the high levels of concentration and intensity. Moreover, the wine exhibits a classy, complex bouquet, offering up scents of cedar, black fruits, minerals, and leather. Full-bodied, powerful, and rich, with outstanding concentration, this wine requires another 7-10 years of cellaring - can you believe that? It is unquestionably a 40-50-year wine" PArker Wine Advocate 1996

"A knockout bottle when first tasted in March 2001, when it had a complex, black dusty nose and an ultra-dense, backward, masculine palate. …

Sauternes 1er Cru Classe

***91 Points - CellarTracker***
This beautiful Sauternes from the excellent 1970 vintage displays an orange/copper hue. On the nose and palate aromas of orange marmalade, delicate caramel, and layers of honey create a sweet and elegant wine, with great acidity which gives it verve. Drinking very nicely now, but with lots of life left.

Grand Cru Bourgeois, Haut- Medoc

A classic Haut-Médoc estate, Château Tourteran has long produced traditional left-bank clarets. The 1970 vintage was one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated of the 20th century, yielding structured wines with excellent ageing potential.

Brick-garnet with an amber rim. The nose reveals dried blackcurrant, cedar, leather, and autumn leaf. The palate is soft and elegant, with mellow tannins, earthy tobacco, and a savoury finish. A wine of finesse more than power at this stage.

Leon Rigault

Côtes du Rhône is a huge appellation in the south of France encompassing 40,300 ha. Plenty of white and rosé wine is produced in Côtes du Rhône but there can be no doubt that red is king. Usually Grenache will dominate the blend (except in the north where Syrah is allowed to be top dog, but these wines are relatively few) and is normally partnered with Syrah and/or Mourvèdre but a further 18 varieties are also permitted! A cheerful example might be light, soft, fruity and easy-drinking, while the finest examples may be full-bodied, concentrated, intense, spicy and ageworthy. But what they all invariably have in common is a fabulous sense of place and lashings of personality and character. …

Salvano Saverio

A native black grape variety of Northern Italy grown almost exclusively in the provinces of Cuneo and Alessandria in Piedmont. It is relatively easy to cultivate, although it is susceptible to fungal diseases. It ripens before Barbera and Nebbiolo and is often grown in high north-facing sites which would be unsuitable for Nebbiolo. The finest Dolcetto wines come from grapes grown on soils rich with white marls, especially those found on the right bank of the River Tauro. The wines generally are low in tannins and acidity and are usually fruity and fragrant, often with hints of almonds.
