Stéphane Ogier La Côte Blonde (Côte-Rôtie)
Flowers, black and red fruits, white peaches, smoke, incense and spice box aromatics accompany the myriad of red fruits in the perfume. The wine is discreet, as opposed to showy, elegant as opposed to powerful, fresh, vibrant and refined. The wine will require some time, but it is going to be worth the wait. Because it offers levels of spicy, sweet and fresh, black and red fruits with a strong mineral edge that lingers of close to the 60 second mark. The wine is almost impossible to find as only 1,000 bottles are produced. Drink from 2028-2050. 273 Views Tasted Oct 24, 2025 |

Stéphane Ogier Cuvée Lancement (Côte-Rôtie)
The array of aromatics pops with marine influences, tar, flowers, smoke, cherries, and spice. I love the nose, but it is on the palate where the wine really takes off.

In the nose, the wine is spicy, with cedar, tobacco, blackberries, black currants, and green, peppery herbs. Concentrated, chewy, and a bit chunky, the wine strives to be elegant, and almost gets there, but it just can’t quite make it. With 1 hour of air, there is some improvement.

Cheval des Andes (Vistalba)
Served blind, I'd think this was a top Hermitage due to its smoky character, topped with mint, peppery herbs, barbecued meat, black currants, blackberries, along with a hint of blueberry.

Château Haut-Brion (Pessac-Léognan)
Lush, velvety layers of blackberries and currants topped with smoke, spice, herbs that coat your palate with seamless layers of fruit.

Château La Gaffelière Naudes (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
More on the secondary side of the style range with its tobacco, campfire ember, burnt leaf, wet earth and last remaining vestiges of red fruits in the nose.
