生産者ドメーヌ ド ラ ロマネ コンティDRCワイン名エシェゾーEchezeauxヴィンテージ2007容量750ml解説パーカーポイント: 90点予想される飲み頃：2010 - 2017The Domaine’s 2007 Echezeaux displays ripe red berry and star anise aromas; a tender fruit character, mingled with a hint of mocha and underlain by subtly saline meat stock on a silken palate, and a finish that preserves just enough of a fresh edge to its fruit to stimulate salivation and the desire for the next sip. Here is a 2007 that remains true to the personality it expressed early on in barrel, albeit with flattering textural refinement and a greater sense of purity. It’s small scale, but only in the non-derogatory sense of chamber music (two words I used to describe it and, amusingly, later heard from de Villaine). I imagine this charmer being best enjoyed over the next 5-7 years.(The Wine Advocate, Jun 29, 2010)

生産者ドメーヌ ド ラ ロマネ コンティDRCワイン名ロマネ サン ヴィヴァンRomanee St.Vivantヴィンテージ2007容量750ml解説パーカーポイント: 93点予想される飲み頃：2010 - 2025The Domaine’s 2007 Romanee-St.-Vivant predictably inhabits a different world - not to mention being in a different league of complexity and intrigue - from their Echezeaux, Grands Echezeaux, or Richebourg of that vintage. Peat, leather, humus, forest floor, and decadent floral perfume are joined by an oceanic saline, alkaline, kelp-tinged aspect, and these surf-and-turf aspects follow on a polished palate that - despite only the slightest nod in the direction of overt fruitiness by way of dark berries - nevertheless displays a mouth-watering juiciness to accompany its myriad mineral and organic complexities. A persistently satisfying and thought-provoking finish points to the likelihood of 12-15 years continuance.(The Wine Advocate, Jun 29, 2010)

Medium to full-bodied, velvety and sumptuous, it's ample and fine-boned, with filigree tannins, bright girdling acids and a long, saline finish.(The Wine Advocate, Sep 17, 2021)

生産者ドメーヌ ド ラ ロマネ コンティDRCワイン名ラ ターシュLa Tacheヴィンテージ2007容量750ml解説パーカーポイント: 96点予想される飲み頃：2010 - 2030The 2007 La Tache amply illustrates why this monopole is the darling among most of those lucky enough to regularly taste or collect the wines of the Domaine de La Romanee-Conti. Hints of mocha, vanilla, maraschino, and almond paste lend a confectionary note to generously rich cassis and raspberry, while Latakia tobacco, peat, clove, black pepper, star anise, and cumin contribute commune-typical Vosne-Romanee personality in spades. The high-toned, sweet themes continue inner mouth, with intimation of heliotrope, rowan, and lily perfume, while the wine’s smoky, spicy elements seem to descend into a low-register undertone of roasted red meats and forest floor. As this opens to the air, a subtly sweet-saline suggestion of lobster shell reduction adds richness and succulence. Strikingly creamy in feel, this La Tache nevertheless possessed a fresh berry edge that helps convey vibrancy to a finish that practically glows in your mouth, offering another of those Burgundian paradoxes of light and dark. Here, de Villaine’s case for long-term potential is easily made, and I expect this will richly reward at least 15-20 years of attention.(The Wine Advocate, Jun 29, 2010)

The intense aromatics are a dead give-way for what is to follow, which is to say a virtual explosion of flavors.

The estate’s preference for picking on the early side is one of the factors that help balance some of the fleshiness of the vintage. This is an especially silky, supple Brunello from Biondi-Santi. The overt personality of the year comes through, but not at the expense of the house’s style. Floral notes reappear to frame the elegant, expressive finish. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2037.(The Wine Advocate, Apr 26, 2012)

生産者シャトー ド ボーカステルChateau de Beaucastelワイン名オマージュ ア ジャック ペランHommage a Jacques Perrinヴィンテージ2007容量750ml解説パーカーポイント: 100点予想される飲み頃：2015 - 2055The star of the show was the 2007 Châteauneuf du Pape Hommage À Jacques Perrin, which in this vintage is a classic blend of 60% Mourvedre, 20% Syrah, and the rest Counoise and Grenache. Inky colored and insanely perfumed, with to-die-for notes of lavender, Provencal herbs, roasted meats, black cherries, truffle, crème de cassis and licorice, it flows onto the palate with massive concentration, a stunning mid-palate and a thick, rich texture that never gets heavy or cumbersome. This is blockbuster stuff that just could not get any better. Drink it anytime over the coming 3-4 decades.(217, The Wine Advocate, 28th Feb 2015) シャトー・ヌフ・デュ・パプの中でも際立つ存在感 シャトー ド ボーカステル Chateau de Beaucastel 抜群の安定した品質と知名度シャトー・ヌフ・デュ・パプには、ラヤスやボノーら優れた生産者が大勢いますが、安定した品質と知名度で1つ選ぶとすればシャトー・ド・ボーカステルです。

生産者シャトー マルゴーChateau Margauxヴィンテージ2007容量750ml解説パーカーポイント: 92点予想される飲み頃：2017 - 2035Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Chateau Margaux was just missing a little intensity on the nose compared to the other First Growths: scents of incense and iris, blackberry and tobacco, perhaps just missing the floral nature of other vintages. The palate is well balanced with supple black fruit laced with graphite and tobacco, fully matured but clearly with sufficient substance to last another 15-20 years. It is a capable Château Margaux, although frankly it does not put enough distance between itself and its Margaux peers, yapping at its heels. Tasted February 2017.(The Wine Advocate, Jul 01, 2017) ボルドーの宝石 シャトー マルゴー Chateau Margaux 香りから口当たり、味わい、そのすべてがエレガントで繊細です。
19世紀後半のベト病や世界恐慌などにより、一時品質を落としてしまいますが、1977年にアンドレ・メンツェロプロスが所有してからは、醸造学者エミール・ペイノーをコンサルタントとして招き、ブドウの栽培方法や樽による熟成の見直しを行うなどの改革を行いました。
そうして再び名声を取り戻し、コリーヌが引き継いだ後もさらなる成長を遂げています。
シャトーでは有機栽培が採用されており、2012年からグランヴァンの畑はすべてビオロジックで栽培をしています。

I noticed that it has slightly more intensity than the Lafite-Rothschild, a touch of menthol infusing the black fruit, certainly more exotic than the Lafite or Mouton with that subtle hint of black olive. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. There is good muscle and weight to this Latour, with impressive tension and energy on the saline finish.
