Watching this video is the best way to start the week! Thank you for making this video, John. So thrilled to see my favorite appellations Margaux and Saint-Estephe represented in this elite 2022 selection.

I have been in some of the wineries you mention and love how accurate you’re when you talk about their techniques and other conditions to make their wines. You bring back memories as if I was there now. While listening carefully I couldn’t avoid thinking about the next vintage to come. What a warm-extremely hot year… Thank you so very much once again John!! Santé🍷

Thanks for this fantastic breakdown, John. Brane Cantenac is really special. Were you able to try any St Pierre from Julien?

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thank you! Have not tried that one yet. Beychevelle and Gruaud Larose were very strong too. Based on scores it looks like St Pierre would come in a bit behind them.

@drmatthewhorkey Год назад

Throw your hands up for Calon Segur! I like the appellation of Saint-Estephe in general for balance an early approachability of the wines

@AttorneySomm 11 месяцев назад

Thanks very much! I'm a big fan of Tour Saint Christophe generally. They do an excellent job and the wine has been consistently excellent lately. I've definitely recommended 18-20. 21 was a bit down, but still excellent for that more difficult vintage. 2022 is definitely a return to the 18-20 quality level. Cheers!

@joeydecarlo2532 Год назад

Great video, I was hoping you'd talk about 2022 Bordeaux. I had Laroque and Grand-Puy-Lacoste in my cart and then decided on others, shoot!! Haha. I ended up pre-ordering: Chateau Bellefont Belcier Chateau Branaire-Ducru Chateau Grand-Puy-Ducasse Chateau Suduiraut Sauternes Thoughts on these choices?

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thank you! Those are good choices too. That Suduiraut is going to be tremendous! The others are all excellent too.

@nordr Год назад

Very nice video! I bought into the Laroque hype and picked up some 2018. To me it was very simple. Do you think these 95+ point ratings are really justified?

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thank you! Laroque is elegant and can be a bit subtle, but is definitely a quality wine and tremendous QPR. Complexity should come with more bottle age. It absolutely blows away anything you can get from Napa for $30.

@Smiding Год назад

I hope I can get my hands on some lafite, margaux, gruaud, poyferre and cheval blanc this year. Seems like the prices are up 15-30% from last year.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

A nice list! Yes but it is important to keep in mind that 2021 prices were lowered because it was a sub-par vintage. Also, 2022 is potentially better than even 1982 so there is still appreciation potential, especially for the wines that end up with perfect scores. With 2-3 exceptions, I would pass in 2021 entirely.

@freddieramirez2060 Год назад

Just bought some les Carmes today. Buy these before prices go up. Millesima had them around $144 last night. Jumped up to $244 now. Got mine on TW&more futures $189. They will sell out quick. Thinking of buying more

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Well done! Yes, especially if you can get it below $200, that is a good idea! If this wine receives one or more 100-point scores, it will release at a substantially higher price in a couple years.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

P.S., just received an email from wine dot com. They have the Les Carmes Haut-Brion for $189.

Awesome video! I’m debating 2 out of the 3 between carmes haut Brion, smith haut Lafitte and haut bailly. What do you recommend is the better buy? Leaning toward CHB and haut bailly 🤔

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thanks! That is a difficult decision. All three appear to be tremendous wines, so I would probably take price into account as well. I definitely would include CHB and then whichever wine had the best pricing for the SHL and the HB. But you really can't go wrong as all 3 should be amazing. Cheers!

@justinlow1990 Год назад

@@AttorneySomm cost is probably what will swing my decision on most of my buys as I’ve heard most will up their prices on average 15-20% from 20😭 I’ve already got Leoville Barton and GPL as those are great value. Looking forward to Rauzan Segla and Clinet 🙏🏼

@AttorneySomm Год назад

@@justinlow1990 Sounds like a nice haul! I almost included Rauzan Segla in this video. That one is excellent too. With respect to pricing, unlike other regions, Bordeaux lowers prices in bad vintages. So while it is true prices are meaningfully higher than 2021, a better comparison would probably be the 2020 prices. With 2-3 exceptions, I'm going to skip 2021 altogether.

@justinlow1990 Год назад

@@AttorneySomm I agree! I’ve completely skipped 2021 en primeur and might wait till the wines hit the stores before purchasing. It doesn’t make sense to buy 2021 when there is still a ton of 2020 left in the market

@carlcadregari7768 Год назад

Great info. And may ask your opinion, my granddaughter was born in January 22 and I wanted to get some Bordeaux to share when she turns 21. Which producer would you suggest? I do know I’ll need to find a reputable storage house too. I would be open to getting second or first growth wines.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thank you! I would go with La Conseillante or Les Carmes Haut-Brion from those in this video. Ducru, Cos or Montrose would also be excellent choices.

@robrussell5329 5 месяцев назад

I remember back in the 1980s when Clos Fourtet had bottomed out in reputation and you could get it really cheap. At the time, I lived in Dallas, where in summer the liquor stores were usually 80 degrees inside. Worse were the ones whose frontage faced the afternoon sun. And it was before bar codes and many of the foreign wines were priced wrong because the staff couldnt figure out the label! That was my introduction to Bordeaux.

@AttorneySomm 5 месяцев назад

Ouch. Definitely a rough way to start!

@AttorneySomm 5 месяцев назад

Except you probably got some good buys.

@AttorneySomm 6 месяцев назад

@AttorneySomm 8 месяцев назад

Thank you! Yes, they are on a tear now! Feature that producer in a couple different videos. 👍🍷

@jameslin1062 Год назад

Which first growth would you pick to get a case?

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Latour doesn't sell futures, so that one is out for about a decade. They are all tremendous and have multiple potential 100-point scores. If price were no issue, I would probably get Lafite. HB tends to be the one I personally enjoy the most and will cost materially less than Lafite. And you certainly could not go wrong with Margaux either, although the profile is a bit different for this vintage. Mouton would be 4th. You really can't go wrong though.

@showme1024 Год назад

LB baby! Would you say 15 or 20 years hits Leoville Barton's spot?

@AttorneySomm Год назад

It depends on the vintage. I'm still waiting on 2000, but 2003 has been enjoyable since a few years after release. Generally 15-20 is a pretty good estimate, except in very structured vintages like 1995, 2000, 2005 and 2010. Cheers! 2022 should be a bit more generous like 2009.

@borbetomagus1 Год назад

I picked up some carmes, montrose and poyferre this year. Who knows if they will be any good... a year of hype over reality perhaps? The consolation at least is that since mid-2000s even off-vintages have offered enjoyment. Bad BDX? No such thing these days.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

I think those are excellent choices! I definitely think they will be enjoyable.

@Ruirspirul Год назад

its not about hotness the 2022, its about drought and dryness, which means grapes have had really hard time ripening in extreme droughts. therefor 2022 was never going to be the “warm” year, not in Bordeaux, not in France and not anywhere else in Europe… even if Bordeaux guys are claiming they did some magic to keep wines “fresh”. all of this does not apply to regions where irrigation is allowed of course.
