2018 Château Cateau Lagrange

 


Unusual but good Bordeaux. Strong nose of old leather (my wife said it's like the smell of a saddle after some workout). Black currant and raspberry in the nose and taste. Lots of tannins, no trace of sugar. Overall feels pretty good.

Was good with salmon pizza.

2020 De Mont

 


Great Rosé from Provence. Much better, than 2019. Strong honey and meadow notes in the nose, honey and spices in the taste. Unlike 2019, no hint of chalk or dust at all.

Enjoyed it with sous vide cod.
