@AttorneySomm Год назад

@@sanjaypatelmd4669 Yes, I would encourage you to do it! It is a terrific program. I have a video about the various levels and what is involved as well as another video about how to prepare for the tasting exams. I'm sure you will do well in the program. The first level is very straight-forward and quick with a multiple choice exam. That will get you started.

I love how intelligently and excellently written this content is, and I truly appreciate the extent of research that went into its preparation. Also, I applaud you for the depth of knowledge and experience that this authoritative video clearly shows. Comprehensive, intensive, extensive, and educational without being didactic or boring. Third Growth producers and 1855 Classification expertly and accurately discussed. One of your longest videos I’ve ever watched but very engaging, I actually watched it thrice. Thrilled that Margaux was mentioned several times! One of my top favorite appellations in Bordeaux! And so many interesting pieces of information here, I felt like taking down notes - or booking a flight to revisit Bordeaux especially my favorite Left Bank.😁 Beautiful photos of the chateaux and cellars! Superb advice on vintages to buy or invest in. Among all these chateaux mentioned, I’ve tried - and/or I still have for cellaring - bottles from Chateau Giscours, Leoville Barton, Rauzan Segla, and Calon Segur. I’m so blown away by this amazing video with visuals and script that went beyond my high expectations. Incredibly awesome content, I can’t praise it high enough. Truly one of the best written, best produced, and most informative videos I’ve ever watched on RU-vid. Felicitations, John! Santé!

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Merci beaucoup, Margaux! I try very hard not to be didactic. 😁 Yes, 10 of the 14 Third Growths are from your namesake appellation! So glad you enjoyed the video. Truly appreciate the support and the effusive, eloquent feedback! Santè!

Great video, and very helpful! I am completely head over heels for Bordeaux over the past year. My biggest problem is that I don’t have many bottles earlier than 2018 and 2019 at the moment. It is extremely helpful to learn which wines can be drunk on the younger side and still be enjoyable.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thanks very much! Glad it was helpful. The good news is that both 2018 and 2019 are outstanding vintages! Those are both terrific vintages in which to have lots of inventory. Have a great weekend!

I am a big fan of Chateau D’Issan and buy a case in good vintages. I also love Chateau Palmer but given it’s price I can only rarely buy. I have some 2016 aging in my cellar right now , but have multiple cases of D’Issan waiting for me (2009, 2010, 2016). D’Issan is great value.

Excellent content- as always! I was intrigued by your comment about taking a chance on older vintages of Langoa Barton. Wondering if you have any specific recommendations for vintages to seek out. Some of my favorite Bordeaux experiences have been from when I took a chance on an old bottle; '83 Prieure Lichine, '86 Le Gay, '89 Cantmerle were all excellent. I've also had some dead bottles that I wish I had never bought. So any recs are very much appreciated. Thanks and keep up the great work!

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it! I think any of the following vintages may be worth trying: '82, ''86, '89, '90, '96, '98, '99-01. If good provenance is assured, potentially also '78. Cheers!

@jennlee4777 Год назад

Couldn’t agree more with Palmer … it’s a fave and the alter ego is a fun wine to introduce people to better than average Bordeaux…. It’s tough to find here in Ontario Canada , but I’m our travels we can usually find success. Thanks again for the great run down. Excellent as always.

@piffpaff1482 Год назад

In my opinion, you can get good value in Bordeaux in the price range 20-40 €. I tried also more expensive Bordeaux wines and was often disappointed. For me consuming a wine means relaxing my mind and enjoying. I found myself trapped in a mood of analyzing a wine constantly if it is more than 40€. To me this is much money for a bottle of wine so I try to find something special to justify the investment. This destroys somehow the enjoyment. But if you are wealthy enough..wish you happy drinking👋

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Thanks for weighing in. Yes, I understand. I do videos about wine at all different price points. I have done videos for the top wines at $15, $20, $25, $30 and $40 as well.

@jonathandavis9507 Год назад

Marquis D'Alesme 2018 is drinking well already, especially at the price.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

@ronmcmartin4513 Год назад

I tried it a year ago(Jan. 22). It was closed. I couldn't coax more than 92 points & notes said Medium weight. Based on the critics(especially the ones that align with my palate), it is much better than that. They also say 2019 is much better in bottle than barrel.

Australian and New Zealand prices for Bordeaux are higher than in USA. For example in NZ where I am from, Langoa Barton 2018 is US$95 vs about US$60 in USA. In Australia it is US$87. I really enjoy your videos. They are well researched and well presented. Very educational. Keep up the great work.

@minka8047 Год назад

@@AttorneySomm anything that's from Europe generally is expensive ( scale/transport) some of the American wine you talk about we just can't get ( no double diamond in the country believe me I checked ). You can get a good local bottle for between Aud 30 to Aud 50; the top wineries have all priced up over the last year. But there still great wineries (Rockford, Wendowree etc) where they value a relationship; you can buy their top bottles if your on the list for very reasonable price

@julioalbertomorales Год назад

When a wine is blend, let's say 80% cabernet, 15% merlot and 5% petit verdot, at what stage does the blending occur? Are the grapes pressed and those percentages of juices come together at the start, after each juice has fermented a bit or a lot, or at the very end when each is pretty much a standalone wine?

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Excellent question. The trend in Bordeaux currently is for vineyards to be divided into different parcels. The different grapes are generally in separate parcels (e.g., Merlot in clay soils, Cabernet S in more rocky soils, etc.). Most Bordeaux producers will ferment and mature each parcel individually and then blend the components prior to bottling. The tasting process is a huge undertaking as they need to try to come up with the best blend of these varying components and try lots of different combinations before they decide on the final blend. That is why the composition of the blend can vary quite a bit from year to year.

@julioalbertomorales Год назад

@@AttorneySomm John, thank you. Adding to the many things I find fascinating: within a given producer's land the parcels themselves can vary significantly to suit one varietal over another. Your channel has become one of my main sources of info and I don't mean binge watch I mean really take the time to pay attention. I've always liked wine but within the last six months or so I'm enjoying it more because I'm taking the time to seek out better quality and appreciating where it comes from, who makes it, etc.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

@@julioalbertomorales Yes, that was something that really made an impression on me as well. Understanding what goes into the wine definitely gives one a sense of appreciation for all that goes into it. It can also help you to understand the differences between wines from different producers and help you to learn what you like best and why.

@numanuma20 Год назад

The 1885 classification was based on who had the most money. The more money you had, the more likely it was that you would be able to have better wines and most likely bribe your way into the classification. I wish Chateau Gloria was a growth. I think it is worthy to be so.

@AttorneySomm Год назад

Chateau Gloria did not exist at the time, but agree that it is an excellent producer and would be worthy of inclusion if the classification were revisited.
