Bordeaux 2019 Brochure

53. Les Fiefs de Lagrange, St‑Julien “The 2019 Les Fiefs de Lagrange is a soft, supple easygoing wine to drink now and over the next few years. Sweet red cherry, red fruit flowers, mint, blood orange, spice and rose petal perk up the finish. Readers will find a charming Saint-Julien that captures the personality of the year in spades. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2031.” 91 pts, Vinous 392702 $70 54. Château de Fieuzal, Pessac‑Léognan “Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 de Fieuzal sings of black raspberries, warm cassis, and boysenberries plus suggestions of violets, cedar chest, and clove oil. Medium-bodied, elegantly styled, and refreshing in the mouth, it has soft tannins and a fragrant finish.” 93 pts, The Wine Independe nt 390826 $110 55. Château La Fleur de Boüard, Lalande de Pomerol “The 2019 La Fleur de Boüard has a vivacious, well-defined bouquet of pure red cherry and wild strawberry scents, a touch of marmalade and iodine ernerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy and ripe, with supple tannins and a sensual, concentrated yet never overpowering finish. A lovely Lalande de Pomerol. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2044.” 93 pts, Vinous 389398 $70 56. Château Fleur Cardinale, St‑Émilion Grand Cru “A consistently impressive Saint-Emilion, the 2019 Château Fleur Cardinale shows the vintage beautifully, with a medium to full- bodied, elegant style as well as classic darker cherry and mulberry fruits, notes of dried herbs, loamy earth, and incense, supple yet present tannins, and a great finish. It's one classy, balanced 2019 to drink over the coming two decades.” 94 pts, Jeb Dunnuck 390945, 392744 $100
