Three lovely Bordeaux
From 3 appellations on the Left Bank (Medoc)
Offered by original purchaser, stored in a temperature-controlled cellar
2005 Lascombes, Margaux
95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"A gorgeous example of Lascombes, the 2005, a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, continues the remarkable turn-around in quality that began five years ago. A stunningly opulent wine with a dense purple color, the 2005 possesses a beautiful perfume of spring flowers, blueberries, blackberries, creosote, and graphite, full body, silky but noticeable tannins, a layered mouthfeel, and a stunning, 45+-second finish. This is a brilliant, modern-styled Margaux that should age for 30-35 years."
2004 Ducru-Beaucaillou, St-Julien
92 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"Medium to deep garnet colored with a hint of brick, the 2004 Ducru-Beaucaillou offers up wonderfully savory scents of sautéed herbs, charcuterie and tapenade over notes of baked plums, boysenberries and raspberry pie plus touches of cast iron pan and new leather. Medium-bodied, firm, chewy and with a refreshingly energetic mid-palate of red and black berry preserves, it finishes on a persistent mineral note. (LPB)" (8/2020)
2000 Grand-Puy-Lacoste, Pauillac
95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The 2000 Château Grand Puy Lacoste is an exceptional wine from Xavier Borie. It has a brilliant nose of blackberry, crushed stone, graphite and cedar. Putting it to one side for ten to 15 minutes reveals subtle mint-like aromas that whisk you straight to Pauillac. The palate is smooth and silky, cloaking the tannic frame of this GPL so that you barely notice it. But that will stand it in good stead for the long-term, the cornerstone of all great wines from this estate. Then there is that hint of spice on the aftertaste-the show ain't over yet . . . it remains a magnificent Pauillac to cherish long-term. Tasted January 2016. (NM)"
