Bordeaux | 1 | 100 (WCI) | HK$11,745.00 | |||||
The Wine Cellar Insider (100)The last vintage produced by Pomerol legend, Denis Durantou, (who sadly passed away May 2020), is one of his best. A testament to his devotion to his vineyards, the wine explodes with a gorgeous set of aromatics packed with flowers, chocolate, truffle, plums, black cherries, and wet earth. But it is on the palate where the magic takes place. Incredibly concentrated, rich, ostentations, silky and vibrant, the wine offers incredible purity to the fruit, which is a good thing because the finish is not something you want to lose sight of, as its showy display of chocolate-tinged, dark red fruits, licorice, spice, and black cherries lingers, builds and expands. Built to age and evolve, give it some time in the cellar and enjoy it for 3 decades with ease. This is exactly the type of wine Denis Durantou truly loved making. Owners of this beauty should toast him and his years of work at L'Eglise Clinet. I know I will. |

L'Epiphanie a Tertre Daugay 2008 is a distinguished expression from the esteemed Château Daugay, nestled in the heart of the Bordeaux appellation. Meticulously crafted, this vintage is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, hand-picked from the estate’s premier vineyards. The winemaking process involves a precise fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by ageing for 24 months in French oak barrels sourced from Limousin, imparting subtle vanilla and spice notes. Masterfully led by vintner Pierre Daugay, whose expertise spans over four decades, each bottle embodies the terroir’s unique characteristics with layers of dark cherry, cassis, and earthy undertones. The 2008 harvest benefited from an optimal climate, allowing for perfect ripeness and balanced acidity. L'Epiphanie a Tertre Daugay 2008 offers a velvety palate and a long, elegant finish, making it a quintessential choice for connoisseurs seeking sophistication and depth in their fine wine collection. |

Espérance de Trotanoy is the second wine of Château Trotanoy. This Merlot-dominated wine is made from vines averaging 35 years. Espérance de Trotanoy is made from the same vines, same wine-making team and same facilities as the first wine. It is produced in very limited quantities and only in exceptional years. It is vinified in small concrete vats and aged in French oak barrels.
More Info
This 2016 has a darkly berried, gently leafy nose, with pure violet aromatics. The palate is textured, with dried-earth minerality, lifted by arching acidity, which makes this hugely approachable and perhaps offers a glimpse into the character of Trotanoy 2016 itself in years to come. There is more than enough ageing potential and tannic rigour here to see this through a decade and more. |

Bordeaux | 6 | 90 (VN (NM)) | HK$1,050.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (90)The 2019 L’Esprit de Chevalier has a lovely bouquet of blackberry, briar and hints of iodine and pressed iris flowers. The harmonious palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and just a little chewiness toward the finish that softens even in the glass. Lovely. Classic in style. |

Bordeaux | 9 | 90-92 (VN (NM)) | HK$2,250.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (90-92)The 2021 L'Esprit de Chevalier has a tightly wound bouquet of blackberry and raspberry fruit permeated with traces of oyster shell; hints of sea spray emerge with time. The medium-bodied palate delivers graphite-infused black fruit, moderate weight, fine salinity and insistent grip and mineralité on the finish. Classic Pessac. |

Bordeaux's relatively diverse weather, particularly its rainfall, means that vintage variation can be quite broad between some years. However advances in wine making techniques, technology and investment has meant that many chateaux are still able to create very good wines in "lesser vintages". From the best vintages wines are made that are clambered for all over the world and mature excellently for many years.
This is a selection of some of our favourite vintages from Bordeaux over the last few decades, as well some more recent ones.
