Château Siaurac 2010, Lalande de Pomerol, Bordeaux A.C., France: I wonder if the alcohol level is correct on the label? It doesn't taste that hot, and this is very high for Bordeaux at 15%. Love the nose of this full-bodied Bordeaux red wine blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes from the Left Bank region of Pomerol. The 2010 vintage was a strong one for Bordeaux. Aromas of fleshy red cherries and violets, followed by darker fruit on the palate. Luscious and supple with some tannic grip that will soften with 2 hours decanting. This will last in the cellar but why wait as it's ready now. Good, satisfying finish. Pair with a rare, juicy steak. Drink: 2018-2026. 309831 15% D 750 mL  $44.95 Score: 92/100.

Château Morin 2018, St Estèphe, Bordeaux A.C., France: From St Estèphe, Bordeaux wine region, Château Morin 2018 is a dry, full-bodied red wine blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. Grapes were hand-harvested and the wine was matured for 18 months in French oak barrels (35% new) and vats. Fragrant with plum compote, blackberry jam and dried fine herbs, it is fresh and generous with blackberry jam, dark plum, cassis, dried fine herbs with a kiss of cacao and well integrated oak spice on the palate.
