creamy wine that shows incredible intensity of flavor without excess weight

Surprisingly there is a touch of menthol on the still youthfully fresh and bright nose of mostly red berry fruit

Ripe and attractively fresh aromas include those of black cherry coulis

the 2017 Flor de Pingus was produced from very concentrated grapes with lots of tannin

It's as though the Clos de Bèze and Chambertin have switched places in 2006 as here the nose is positively kaleidoscopic with a huge range of aromas and spice elements along with a hint of menthol

Pavillon Blanc other_regions_italy creamy wine that shows incredibleThe 2014 Pavillon Blanc de Chteau Margaux is just a bit anonymous on the nose, despite encouragement. The palate is sharp on the entry, very edgy and sharp, verging on sour lemon mixed with lime and peach towards the finish. This is one of the few Bordeaux dry whites that improved with aeration and I ended up giving a higher score. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin
