Lassegue 2018 Saint Emilion
Château Lassègue exemplifies Saint-Émilion at its most opulent. This modern Right Bank wine, crafted from a Merlot-Cabernet Franc blend, bursts with sumptuous dark fruit – think ripe black cherry, plum, and blackberry – wrapped in lavish oak spice and floral perfume.
The house style is rich and velvety, boasting dense, sun-drenched fruit flavors and a plush tannin structure. Notes of violet, baking spice, and vanilla often weave through the ripe fruit. Despite its concentration, Lassègue remains balanced, with refined tannins and a long, mouth-filling finish, making it a luxuriously textured Saint-Émilion that captivates with its sheer generosity and charm
Palmer Rose Solera N/V
"This has a pale copper color with gingerbread, Danish, spiced apple, crushed rock and pink grapefruit aromas. Some truffles and pink salt, too. It’s tight, focused and spicy, with salty undertones and very fine bubbles. Majority chardonnay with pinot noir and pinot meunier from 2017, blended with 45% reserve wines and 8% red wine from a 45-year-old solera. 94 points." -James Suckling
