2009 Connetable de Talbot St Julien, Bordeaux
This second wine of Château Talbot st. Julien was first created in 1979,
owing its name of Connétable, French translation, to Constable John Talbot,
an English warrior who fell at the battle of Castillon in 1453. This wine
reveals the same complexity of its terroir as the "Grand Vin".
Vineyard composition/varital profil:
75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 10% Malbec.
Retail price: $38.73
2005 Haut du Pontet Pauillac, Bordeaux
Until 1975, the famous Cruse family owned the Château Pontet-Canet and the
estate was not Château bottled until 1972. In 1975, a well known Cognac
merchant, Guy Tesseron purchased the Château and today his son, Alfred runs
the estate. Since the sale, an immaculate tank room on two floors, an excellent
chai plus large, underground cellars have been built and the general consensus
is that the Tesserons have put Château Pontet-Canet back on track.
Vineyard composition/varital profil:
56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc
Retail price: $59.90
2005 Les Pagodes de Cos St Estèphe, Bordeaux
From 1921 to 1994, the distinguished Cos d'Estournel did not have a second
label, but instead vinified its young grapes with those of Château de Marbuzet.
In 1994, Bruno Prats decided to vinify Marbuzet separately from the Cos
d'Estournel younger vines (5-20 years old) in order to create a second label
from the great chateau. He named it Les Pagodes de Cos in reference to the
oriental towers which adorn the cellars.
Vineyard composition/varital profil:
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and some Cabernet Franc
in varying proportions according to the vintage.
Retail price: $67.39
