Bordeaux 2012 Primeurs: Beauséjour, Canon, Pavie-Macquin & La Mondotte

Written by JW. Posted in Bordeaux

Chateau Beauséjour looked extremely impressive in 2012, Chateau Canon very full of rich plump fruit, more caressing than usual, and Von Niepperg’s La Mondotte wonderfully rich and opulent. Three very impressive St Emilion Premier Grand Crus Classés in very different styles.

Jeremy I tasted these the week before last in the States and with 3 hours only got to about 60 wines total but was sure to hit all wines, sometime twice, that were of personal and purchase interest for me. We are fairly similar in our assessment with a few swaps between your level 1 and my level 2. Troplong Mondot, Pavie Macquin, and Canon Lagaffeliere were tops for me. Figeac was not showing well, I have loved this wine from literally every vintage I have ever had, its a no score for me to be tried again. Cab sauv in the C. Lagaf gave it a nice extra tannic beam of structure on all the lush fruit, Mondot and Macquin being neighbors and have lots of limestone soils are nice twins. I also think that Macquin 10 blows the doors off their 2009.

Bordeaux 2011 Primeurs

Bordeaux 2011 is a fascinating vintage, though not for the reasons most of the producers would have liked.

Bordeaux 2009

Bordeaux 2009 in bottle: St Julien

As you’d probably expect from Bordeaux’s most consistent appellation, no one has put a foot wrong in St Julien in 2009.

Bordeaux 2007 four years on: Pessac-Léognan

Pessac-Léognan has a good claim to being the most successful Bordeaux commune in 2007. The quality of its dry white wines are excellent and the reds are the most attractive in the vintage.
