The Rothschild’s plan has come to fruition. Year after year, the chateau has grown in status and acclaim, churning out some truly historic wines in 2009, 2010, and now 2015. Of course, 2015 was a banner year in St. Emilion, easily the best vintage since the monumental 2005.
As the vintage received critical praise and 100 point scores rained down on the top properties, prices skyrocketed. Like their top bottling, the 100-pt 2015 Lafite-Rothschild which has been trading at an easy $900 a bottle. It may have seemed that value would be impossible to find in a vintage that Wine Enthusiast rated the region an astounding 97 points.
After an amazing year of Bordeaux deals, this is still the best of the year. The 2015 Edmond de Rothschild “Chateau des Laurets”. It dazzled, displaying all the silky, elegant tannins and harmonious nature characteristic of the vintage.
Even more amazing is the price. $35 a bottle, just $31.50/btl on cases. This is a case buy. Lay some down in a dark cellar for the long haul but don’t be afraid to enjoy some right now.

The 2015 des Laurets has a concentrated fruit-driven bouquet with blackberry and raspberry scents bounding from the glass, the new oak neatly embroidered. The palate is fleshy and ripe, layers of crisp red cherry and strawberry fruit, nicely integrated oak and impressive substance towards the finish. This is a very well-crafted, thoroughly delicious Puisseguin Saint Emilion in the making.
2015 was a banner year in St. Emilion, easily the best vintage since the monumental 2005.

Winemaker Pascal Sirat consistently puts out some of the best value Bordeaux in the region but he may have outdone himself in what was a stellar 2019 vintage throughout the region. Just south of Pomerol, the vines at Panchille borrow deep in the soil. The resulting wines are ripe but fresh, with an aromatic complexity and stony finish usually reserved for wine twice the price. Daniel Boulud tells me it’s been the hottest bottle of wine at Bar Boulud for over a month, so I figured I’d better hurry up and secure my allocation! Don’t miss it.
90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
This is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.
#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.
