Chateau L'Argenteyre 2000 Medoc
Medium to full bodied, blueberry, blackberry and cassis scented nose. Extraordinary elegance and extract. Perfect marriage between round tannins and full fruit.
Chateau Le Bourdieu Cru Bourgeois Medoc 2002
Wine Tasting Notes Light bodied and soft on the palate, reveals ripe fruit flavors of apple, pear and melon. Understated and with virtually no bouquet, a food friendly, pleasant summertime sipper, nonetheless. Just begs for some zingy citrus.
2005 Senejac, Haut-Medoc
90 points Wine Spectator: ""There's lots of grapey character, with blackberry and hints of smoky oak. Full-bodied, with lovely soft tannins and a long, caressing finish. Best after 2011.""

Medium to full-bodied and pure, it is best consumed during its first decade ...
Chateau Coufran Haut Medoc Merlot 2003 Rated 89
Wine Advocate Review This primarily Merlot-based wine represents an excellent effort from this property. This deep plum/ruby/purple-tinged hussy boasts plenty of jammy black cherry fruit interwoven with notions of smoke, vanilla, and white chocolate. It is a sexy, up-front, fleshy effort with low acidity as well as abundant fruit, glycerin, ...
Chateau Saint-Paul 2004 Haut-Medoc Bordeaux Red Blends Wine
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It is matured in wood for 18 months, with 25 percent new oak. On the nose, typical Bordeaux aromas of cigar box, spice, black currants and blackberry. The palate offers the same flavor profile, with smooth tannins and a medium finish. ...
