The 2018 Balthus from Château de Reignac has a high-toned, iodine-tinged bouquet of cassis and crushed violet aromas, just a little too showy, perhaps.

Medium red-ruby. Captivating aromas of redcurrant, leather, flowers, iron and caramel. Fat and lush, with more definition and mineral lift to the spicy red fruit flavors than the 2007 shows today. In a rather closed phase now, with a restrained sweetness and good firm tannic backbone. Here, too, the tannins arrive late, but this one has a mineral element I don't yet find in the 2007, giving it more finesse than it appeared to possess last spring.Inc. GSTSG$781.31 -

The 2018 Balthus from Château de Reignac has a high-toned, iodine-tinged bouquet of cassis and crushed violet aromas, just a little too showy, perhaps. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannins, fleshy and rounded, slightly granular rather than silky in texture. Quite spicy toward the finish. This is a thoroughly enjoyable pure Merlot that just needs to evolve a bit more personality.In BondSG$422.00 -

The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape is beautiful, with a great perfume of black cherries, mulberries, savory garrigue, and Provençal spice. Showing the vintage perfectly, it's medium-bodied, has a pure, polished, elegant mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. This cuvée is never the biggest or richest in a vintage, yet it shines for its perfect balance, nuances, complexity, and seamless texture. It's a beautiful Châteauneuf du Pape to enjoy over the coming 15 years.In BondSG$1,015.00 -

The 2021 vintage presented significant challenges for Châteauneuf-du-Pape, particularly for Domaine du Banneret. In response, Audrey Vidal opted to destem the entire harvest, as some grape varieties had unripe stems. Despite these hurdles, the 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape is a true gem. It reveals a bouquet of peony, red berries, flowers, garrigue and spices, with delicate peppery undertones. Medium-bodied, tense and elegant, it offers a refined core of fruit, bright acidity and velvety tannins. The wine finishes long and seamless, with an ethereal quality that carries a Burgundian character. This elegant wine will age gracefully over the next decade or more.In BondSG$1,015.00 -

A gorgeous nose of ripe raspberry, with hints of vanilla and blackberry. Intense yet subtle. Full-bodied, with lots of fruit, yet refined and layered with silky tannins. Long and caressing. Gets better and better. I like it more than the 2003 or the 2000. Best after 2012. 6,065 cases made. -JSIn BondSG$598.00 -

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90-92)
Medium red-ruby. Captivating aromas of redcurrant, leather, flowers, iron and caramel. Fat and lush, with more definition and mineral lift to the spicy red fruit flavors than the 2007 shows today. In a rather closed phase now, with a restrained sweetness and good firm tannic backbone. Here, too, the tannins arrive late, but this one has a mineral element I don't yet find in the 2007, giving it more finesse than it appeared to possess last spring.In BondSG$598.00 -

This is a step up. Ripe and polished, with lots of blackberry, plum sauce and melted black licorice notes that are carried by dense but velvety tannins. Extra anise, violet and incense notes push through the vivid finish, where there's plenty of buried grip. A strong showing. Best from 2013 through 2019. 3,500 cases made. -JMIn BondSG$550.00 -

Made from tiny yields of 18 hectoliters per hectare (May hail damage resulted in this small crop), the opaque purple-colored 2009 reveals an extraordinary nose of mulberries, black cherries, charcoal, barbecue smoke and forest floor. Rich, full-bodied and opulent with silky tannins as well as a broad, unctuous texture, this beauty can be enjoyed now and over the next 15+ years. It is fashioned from a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.In BondSG$749.00 -

Ripe black cherries, darker currants, smoky earth, truffle, and smoke tobacco-like nuances all emerge from the 2010 Château Barde-Haut, a quintessential Saint-Emilion that brings considerable elegance and purity, as well as the richness and depth of the vintage. It's just now at the early stages of its drinking window and has another 10-15 years. Drink 2025-2040.In BondSG$685.00 -

An awesome Saint Emilion, the 2015 Château Barde-Haut showed even better on this occasion than on release. A huge nose of sweet crème de cassis, jammy blackberries, violets, leather, and dried herbs gives way to a full-bodied wine that has a great mid-palate, ripe, silky tannins, not a hard edge to be found, and a great, great finish. I love it even today, yet it has a full two decades of prime drinking ahead of it.In BondSG$237.00 -
Vinous - Antonio Galloni (96)
Readers will find a rich, flamboyant wine in the 2016 Barde-Haut. There is not a ton of subtlety here, but I am not sure that matters all that much given how immensely pleasing the 2016 is. Crushed rocks, graphite, lavender, blackberry, plum, and violet infuse a Saint-Émilion that offers tremendous textural richness as well as vibrancy. Most importantly of all, the 2016 is flat-out delicious. This is a decidedly opulent, dark Saint-Émilion with all of the elements impeccably balanced. I loved it.In BondSG$715.00 -
