Accent on Wine - Bordeaux Pessac-Leognan

Chateau Haut-Brion 2007

Chateau Haut-Brion 2007 — Thu, 26 Aug 10 15:28:17 +1200

"This is dense, smoky, brooding and suggestive of depth, with a little meaty vein to the fruit on the nose. Here we have 43% Merlot, 44% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Cabernet Franc, and 43% of the harvest so there should be 8900 cases produced. It is weightier than Le Clarence, a little plummy and fleshy, but still elegant. There is a lot of evident structure, with a supple composition laid over a core of firm tannins. A little length here. A good wine with potential, although it is not overtly expressed. From my 2007 Bordeaux primeur assessment. 16-17+/20 (April 2008)" -- The Wine Doctor

Chateau Clos Marsalette 2009

Chateau Clos Marsalette 2009 — Thu, 24 Jun 10 15:52:29 +1200

Visionary/proprietor Stefan von Neipperg appears to have produced his finest Clos Marsalette to date. A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot (13.5% alcohol), it is a broad, savoury wine with beautiful, complex aromas of berry fruit, graphite, spice box, herbs, and cedar. Long, sexy, full-bodied, and lush, this beauty can be enjoyed over the next 8-10 years. (Tasted once.)
--Robert Parker 90-92/100

Please Note: This wine will be arriving on approximately January 2012.
