2008 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste, Cru Classé Pauillac

2008 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste, Cru Classé Pauillac

Attractive sweet fruit on the nose, perfumed cassis with a cool, ripe nature. A wealth of deep berry fruit expands on the palate, with a creamy, silky, glossy texture. This is all underpinned by a firm minerality. Good substance and precision. Mid-weight, earlier drinking style of GPL, with a lovely cedary touch on the long, fine finish. Robert Parker: 89-91+

2008 Château Margaux, 1er Cru Margaux

2008 Château Margaux, 1er Cru Margaux

Cabernet Sauvignon dominates the 2008 vintage of Ch. Margaux, as it did in 2006, here comprising 87% of the blend, with 10% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot. The aromas suggest soft-skinned berry fruit, sweet and ripe. A refined style, with a juicy, fresh nature and a taut mineral vein. The assertive nature of the Cabernet really comes through on the palate, lending a firm backbone, plenty of precision and direction. There are notes of leafy, peppery, black fruit, underbrush and cedar, as well as an admirable density to this wine. A pure and well-defined vintage, which bears some similarity to both 2004 and 2006 according to Paul Pontallier.

2008 Vieux Château Certan, Pomerol

2008 Vieux Château Certan, Pomerol

A blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. The aromas offer freshly-crushed stone-fruit. On the palate, the fruit is of a similar nature, with a layered depth. There is a striking purity to this elegant VCC, with a creamy, fat sensation to the mid-palate. The tannins seem barely perceptible; their grip is gentle and their texture silky. A very pure, attractive Pomerol.

2008 Château Rauzan-Ségla, Cru Classé Margaux

2008 Château Rauzan-Ségla, Cru Classé Margaux

Once one of the most highly thought of properties in Bordeaux at the time of the 1855 Classification, Château Rauzan-Ségla's reputation declined over the years until it was bought by Chanel in 1993. Since then, substantial investment and the influence of talented wine-maker John Kolassa has led to this property undergoing a major turn-around and it now produces some of the finest Margaux in any vintage. Charming nose of creamy cassis fruit. The palate shows a fresh, vibrant fruit character with black and red fruit spreading across the mid-palate. Beautifully textured with fresh acidity and fine-grained tannin giving length to this appealing Rauzan.

2008 Château l'Evangile, Pomerol

2008 Château l'Evangile, Pomerol

It was an atypically late harvest at this famed Pomerol estate, beginning on September 29 and ending on October 14. Even more remarkable were the frighteningly low yields of 20 hectoliters per hectare. The final blend was 88% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc, and the natural alcohol hit 13.7%, among the highest of the last one-hundred years. The acidity is surprisingly good given the ripeness of the fruit and the generally high alcohols in the 2008 Bordeaux. The dense purple-colored 2008 l’Evangile exhibits a floral nose of sweet mulberries, black currants, and black cherries, a full-bodied, lush texture, silky tannins, and an exceptionally fine finish. While not that evolved, this precocious Pomerol was tasting unusually well for such a young barrel sample. It should drink well for 15-20 years. (93-95)

2008 Château Léoville-Las-Cases, Cru Classé St-Julien

2008 Château Léoville-Las-Cases, Cru Classé St-Julien

Inky and opaque, with restrained aromas of berry fruit and cassis, intermixed with vanillin nuances. Deep, intense, with rich fruit and toast on the palate, there are very fine, yet firm tannins on show here. The core is elegant, but this remains an assertive, powerful wine, notably so in the vintage context. Glossy, subdued at present, with a deep core of fruit and a long, lingering finish. Always among the more powerful and structural examples of St.Julien, sharing more in common with the characters so often associated with Pauillac. Robert Parker: 95-97+

2008 Château Haut-Bailly, Cru Classé Pessac-Léognan

Focused, creamy blackcurrant nose with a warm, gravelly mineral note. Very classic palate of ripe cassis fruit. Elegant and delicately textured, yet with good concentration. Lovely balance and length – vibrant and with fine-grained tannic support.

2008 Les Forts de Latour, Pauillac

2008 Les Forts de Latour, Pauillac

Restrained, cedary berry fruit and graphite with a scented accent on the nose. A poised style with very good substance. Firm, yet appealing, with fine-grained tannins. There is pleasing density to the ripe fruit on offer, which tends towards the red fruit end of the spectrum. Nuances of toast and a gravelly minerality build complexity in a taut, structural Forts de Latour. Elegant, firm and very successful, this is a very attractive Pauillac, a wine of the quality that one would associate with Second Growth status. Robert Parker: 91-93
