2020 Château Tertre de Boilon


 Wonderful. Classic Bordeaux. It's Blaye, should be on the lighter side, but no. Well-defined medium-bodied wine. Strong taste and nose of black currant, a bit spicy, very defined aftertaste.

Enjoyed it with fried veal.

2023 Les Barricailleurs


 A disappointment. Especially after exceptional 2022. Nothing special. Obvious Bordeaux, but there are better wines around.

2019 Château Briot


 Not drinkable. Not even good as cooking wine. Went straight to the drain. I have no idea how château in Appellation Contrôllée can release such thing to the market.
Will never buy again anything from this producer.
