CHÂTEAU LES GRANDES MURAILLES Grand Cru Classé Saint Emilion 2021

Majoring on raspberry and wild strawberry fruits, clear limestone signature, sappy and with lift through the finish, a little soft through the mid palate but totally charming with a grilled dried herb and fennel finish. As of 2022, this wine is to be included within Clos Fourtet, giving it an interest for collectors. Not tasted En Primeur.

SHAY’S FLAT CABERNET SAUVIGNON Landsborough Joshua Cooper 2021

Joshua Cooper is a producer whose wines I buy in my spare time and drink when I'm not working. The wines are detailed and interesting, and that's something I really value, along with distinction, specificity, place and identity. So, the 2021 Shay's Flat Cabernet Sauvignon leads with a leafy, cassis-riddled nose, which is brambly and spiced, with lotus leaf/humidor (to quote a friend), star anise, mountain herbs, coal dust, salted licorice, ash/embers and blackberries. In the mouth, the tannins are svelte and streamlined—they shape the fruit but it's an invisible caress—and their finesse is like finely milled powder. While tasting, the rockiness of the place evokes earth and minerals in the mind. The cool part about this wine is its austerity of line and structure: it packs flavor and complexity and freshness into a fine-boned package. It's awesome. Thrilling, actually.
