A Paulliac favourite of mine. Tasted on its own, but the memories of the 2004 Latour and Palmer tasted the day before still linger. Obviously its not of their quality, but neither is it their price. Fred Casteja is one of the most generous men in Bordeaux and my memories of my first visit to his Chateau on my first visit may give me a little bias towards this wine. Leather and tobacco on the nose. Some rose florals. A touch of capsicum. Classic medium bodied Bordeaux palate. Good fine tannins. Fresh acid that will ensures this wine’s life for many years yet. 93 Points
