Madeline, I thought this was one of your best videos yet. While most of us can't afford to drink the top five wines, there are so many properties in Bordeaux that it is always possible to find real values in almost every vintage.

Pleasantly surprised to find my favorite Bordeaux Red, Chateau Lanessan being featured here. This is definitely a hidden gem. Great quality with really affordable price. Would definitely recommend to everyone who wants to experience the beauty and elegance of Bordeaux.

[@TheWinezen]

Chateau Lanessan would have been priced more expensive, if the owners of the Chateau actually submitted a few bottles for classification in 1855. It routinely tastes like a 3rd of 4th growth level wine. Sadly for the owners (but thankfully for us wine geeks), the winery was experiencing some problems during the year of 1855 and thus they opted not to go to the Wine Expo and stayed back to fix the problems at their wineries. This sadly deprived the Chateau of its true classification and thus it had to be content at selling its wines at a non-classified growth wine. However, I feel the wines quality is began gathering a more fans to this wines and thereby cementing its status as a true value wine of Bordeaux.

[@Winefolly]

What a story! Looks like quality still rises! we were impressed :)

[@stroopwafel6141]

I enjoy your enthusiasm for wines and your tasting notes. I never tasted white limestone though ;-) In the past I bought a lot of Bordeaux and still have some 25-30 year old vintages. But Bordeaux has disappointed me with a continuous price increase and pre-sales. The region priced itself out of the market imho, yet you can still find wines with a good price-quality, by example in Fronsac. I think Rhône wines have a way better value for money. And look wat great original and interesting red wines are produced now in Portugal, Spain and Italy. But ok, those are different blends. One more thing. The most expensive Bordeaux are Pomerols: Pétrus on the first place. Le Pin is not cheap either. Cheers from Holland! Keep up the good work.

[@vangestelwijnen]

Ah, Château Lanessan! Excellent choice. It is a more 'traditional' producer (in a good way) and 2009 was a 'modern year'. That provided an excellent wine, not too extracted. St. Emilions, in general, are easier too like. Maybe a bit more 'commercial, likeable'. Merlot just is a bit friendlier than cabernet. But give the cabernets enough time....

[@Wavy77]

It's also essential to Bordeaux wines that they are extremely age worthy. I would say that they shouldn't be drunk until they're 10-15 years old and even that's young. Merlot based wines can typically be drunk a little younger than Cabernet Sauvignon based wines though. If you are opening a bottle younger than 10 years make sure it's decanted for at least a couple of hours before drinking it. Second wines can typically be drunk a little younger as they are leaner and have less concentration than the Grand Vin option (even though some of the top Second Vin can have higher concentration than some cheaper first wines). Young Bordeaux that is not decanted can be quite harsh to drink, especially if it's a Cabernet Sauvignon. Should only be done with food.

[@Udp1508]

Informative

[@chrisginoc]

Just getting into Bordeaux from being stuck on Napa for years. If you had limited cellar space remaining, would you recommend 2016 Domaine De Chevalier or 2016 Chateau D'Issan?

[@Winefolly]

Great vintage. Excellent producers. Hold!!

[@ronmcmartin4513]

@Chris G--Those are 2 different regions in Bordeaux(Pessac & Margaux, respectively), much like Napa Valley, Sonoma & Howell Mtn are different "regions"(flavor nuances). Of those 2 Bordeaux, I'd say the Chevalier is a better wine in 2016, and should be ready about 2029-2035(with PROPER storage). I'd buy them in a 3/1 ratio(Chev/D'Issan). Also look for 2018, 2019, 2020 vintages in Bordeaux for future delivery, as they are substantially better than 2017. Drinking window($40-70, in excellent vintages) is usually 13-17 years from vintage date, whereas Napa is more like 8-15 years. In general, Napa wines are better for appetizers, while European wines are for Main Courses.

Thanks for the tip about grand vin. Been into Bordeaux for 20 years, memorized the 1855 classification etc., But never heard about the grand vin thing. I thought it just another meaningless expression to fool the consumer into thinking it was something. I note that few of the classified chateaux use it, but still good to know. As an interesting aside, Petrus use it (Grand Vin) - but they don't make a second wine, making it redundant.

[@Winefolly]

Wow! There are so many wineries in the classification... I'm impressed!

[@godfreyspence32]

It is meaningless.

[@nikolajwinther5955]

@@Winefolly when you can't afford to buy, you read and dream and memorize.

[@francoisthailande2440]

@@nikolajwinther5955 No it's not meaningless, no intended to fool customers too. In France the classification system do not offer the same liberty as in the US when it came to produce wine. The term "grand vin" is used when the winery produces a "second vin", usually less expensive than the first. The "grand vin" is the flagship, intended to collect the best rates by critics, often made with rigorous selection and fine blends, which is expensive. Many producers are making more affordable “second wines”, with grapes that have not been selected for “great wine” to make them profitable. They are not tagged "Grand Cru" or "1er Grand cru"... a such distinction only concerns the "Grand vin" in this case. There are "Le petit Lion", the second wine of Chateau Léoville-Las Cases; "Clarence de Haut-Brion", second wine of Chateau Haut-Brion; "le Carillon d'Angélus", second wine of Chateau Angélus; "Carruades de lafite", second wine of Chateau Lafite-Rotschild; etc... These examples are very qualitative second wines, made by top producers with the same care as their "grands vins", but there are also a lot of less interesting "second vins" of course. Some even produce cheaper wines than their second wines, kind of third or fourth wines of sorts. To attract a different clientele more casual or young, or just to diversify like some Sauternes wineries who produce now dry white wines sold as "Bordeaux Supérieur". But as there is always a risk of damaging its brand image, some Grand Crus producers choose to make only one wine, which they don't need to call it "great wine" in this case!

[@clairenclarenceful]

Just wonder can bordeaux subregions can be identified in blind tasting especially from the left?

[@dlwabbit]

Why did you taste the Semillon as the third but not the first wine? Did you taste it on a different day?

[@BD-vu9bv]

If anyone is thinking of buying a bottle of Sauternes, know that yes it is officially classed as a desert wine but is actually best served slightly chilled with fois gras. It certainly is not to be drunk on its own.

[@victorrasilla]

I love how I can see her arm hair in the sunlight.

[@Sceptimus]

At 4:00 you seem to say that [La Faviere] " is from Entre-deux-mers or Libournais." AFAIK Entre-deux-mers is the region between Garonne and Dordogne, while Libournais is the opposite side ("Right bank") of the Dordogne. Does this mean this wine is from grapes sourced from both areas/banks?

[@Winefolly]

Thanks for asking! I was including Entre-Deux-Mers and Libournais together for consideration for "right bank" style Merlot-based blends because Entre-Deux-Mers actually produces some great red wines. (it's not just Pomerol and Saint-Émilion!). For example, this wine in particular comes vineyards in the Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux appellation which is a special red wine appellation in E-D-M that's basically right across the river from Sauternes. I believe that wine is classed as a Bordeaux Supérieur for better marketplace visibility.

@@Winefolly Well actually, the French asked the VOC (the Dutch East Indies Trading Company) to help them with the de-swamping project, which they did as they got to invest heavily in the area which was lucrative as Bordeaux was a large port that traded slaves and spices etc. I am sure they liked the wine projects though haha. A lot of Dutch merchants traveled further to South Afrika with the knowledge they gained about wine-making in the Bordeaux area. Also, the reason that there are Frysian-cows in the Bordeaux area is because the dutch also brought them around that time.

Perhaps I could advise you that the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte was long dead by 1855. It was Napoleon III you are likely referring to. Not exactly an individual of similar historical stature. Perhaps you are thinking of the Napoleonic Code for inheritance of 1804 established by Bonaparte (commonly referred to as "Napoleon"(. Certainly the law was an issue of major concern for French family wine domaines ever since.

[@Winefolly]

The inheritance laws are more applicable to Burg yes? I think when we talk about BDX we're talking the classification of BDX wineries. So, you're nit-pick about who was Napoleon was is correct. and by long dead, I see he'd been dead 34 years. At any rate, the real point was that it's 168 years later, and the 1855 classification is still held as dogma today. Which is pretty surprising/interesting/weird/antiquated/thought-provoking.
