The blackcurrants and lead pencil come through clearly here with crushed-stone undertones that follow through to a full body with a solid core of fruit that is defined and polished. It’s velvety but then turns to refined silk with a lovely finish. Please give this at least four or five years to soften and open.

Varietal Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

The 2022 Château Grand-Puy Ducasse is a gorgeous effort that might surpass the 2020 when all is said and done. Largely Cabernet Sauvignon (58%) yet with a solid dose of Merlot (40%) and a splash of Petit Verdot, this beauty exhibits a deep purple hue as well as powerful aromatics of blackcurrants, spicy oak, freshly sharpened lead pencils, and a chalky sense of minerality. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, this broad, layered, beautifully textured, and concentrated Pauillac has building tannins, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's not, however, for the instant gratification crowd and needs to be forgotten for 5-7 years, if not a decade. It should see its 30th birthday in fine form.

Dark and winey, with flashes of game and sweet bay peeking out from behind a dense core of mulled black currant, blackberry and black cherry fruit flavors. Dark licorice and warm earth notes wrap up the finish, while a smoldering cast iron edge lingers. Muscular and burly overall, but there's energy and depth for the requisite cellaring needed. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2028 through 2042.

This up-and-coming property in Pauillac has produced a blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot in this vintage. It opens with a nose which is dark, smoky and fresh, with notes of liquorice, mint, sage, toast and charcoal. The palate is fresh and harmonious in its composition, with a powdered structure, plenty of delicious dark fruits all currant and blackberry, with threads of black pepper, charcoal, toast and black bean, all set in a harmonious and seamless texture. Dark and tightly integrated, with a long finish finely grained with tannin, this feels true to the vintage, and is a very strong result for this property. A serious contender for the cellar these days. Tasted twice. The alcohol on the label is 14.5%.

The 2022 Grand-Puy-Ducasse has a very commendable nose with intense black fruit, sous-bois and pencil-box scents, great delineation and a sense of classicism. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannins, quite tannic for its class, but with ample freshness and plenty of length on the peppery finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.
