Let me know how it goes for you!

Glad you picked Beaumont. I am currently drinking the '14s, which are terrific value. My wine merchant's (The Wine Society) Exhibition range includes a claret made by Beaumont, which is also excellent value. I like the blind tasting formula. Years ago I used to run monthly tastings and they were always blind. It helped to concentrate on the wine rather than the label and we had some fun voting on favourites and guessing prices etc. We once had a Lafite (albeit from a lesser vintage) in the line-up and it finished near the bottom, including from me and I knew what it was! Vintage is important, as you say.

Many thanks! The 2016 and 2018 vintages are stellar indeed. There are some previous videos on Bordeaux and an upcoming blind tasting on Classified Growths vs California Cabs!

I'll definitely try these. I'm quite new to drinking wine seriously (about a year in) and I drank in total about 20 bottles of bordeaux, so take my suggestion with a pinch of salt, but I think my favorite was Chateau Moulin Du Cadet, Saint Emilion Grand Cru 100% Merlot 2018 (I paid about 30€). In general, Bordeaux is my go-to region for quality-price wine and I tend to gravitate around the 15-20€ range.

@drmatthewhorkey

Жыл бұрын

That Saint Emillion is actually the best wine in the Cadet range IMO so good job. There can be great value in Bordeaux if you find a good shop to recommend you good bottles. Enjoy the wine journey.

Glad to see Beaumont still performing. They always did well in the restaurant. Machine harvested, if I remember correctly, which really helps to keep costs down. It’s good to see those savings passed on to the consumer.

@@drmatthewhorkey I do yes, and used to have a lot more say in the wine at my last place. You know, I never really considered it, but when I saw that Beaumont was machine harvested I suppose it was just a confirmation bias thing, because I was always very impressed with the quality to price proposition. We were able to put it on at £50-60. I think 2016 was the last I tried and all 2016 was pretty good. Subscribed, mate.

So many hit and misses with Cru Bourgeois that I don't bother with them. I find second wines from Classified Growths or even Crus Classes de Graves offer high enough QPR. I didn't know Beychevelle made a third wine. I will look for this and see if my palate matches yours.

You have to try "Ronan by Clinet". It is made by the people from Chateau Clinet (Pomerol). This wine is 100% merlot, made in a modern Pomerol style. For 16 Euro you can't go wrong here. 90+ points imho. PnP or age it a few years, both outstanding. the 2016 is a fenomenal vintage for this one, but I am already looking out for the 2018.

Sovignon, not savignon is the correct pronunciation for savignon. Sorry, one of my pet hates! Great video going to seek some of those out.
