This vintage is a blend of 96% Shiraz and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, coming from the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra and Magill Estate. Very deep inky purple-black colored, the 2013 Grange has a profoundly scented nose of cr̬me de cassis, preserved black plums, blueberry pie and licorice over nuances of baker's chocolate, smoky bacon and fragrant earth, plus exotic spice wafts of cumin seed, cardamom, fenugreek and star anise. Unfurling and slowly building in the medium to full-bodied mouth with wonderful grace and depth, it reveals an incredible array of ripe black fruit, spice, meat and earth-inspired flavors, with a rock-solid frame to support this beauty (it should easily cellar for 40+ years!), while previously latent flavors emerge fully on the epicly long finish, culminating in that ultimate Grange experience.

Over the last ten or more years, the administration at Mouton Rothschild, particularly the team led by Philippe Dhalluin, has truly pushed the level of quality to the point where this is clearly one of the great wines of Napa. And after so many years, it represents the pinnacle of French viticultural knowledge combined with that of California and Napa's Shangri La-like microclimate. The 2005 Opus One, a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Malbec, has a ruby\/purple color and a beautiful, sweet nose of cr̩me de cassis and spring flowers. Complex and medium to full-bodied, with silky tannin and superb purity and balance, this is exactly what Opus One was meant to be when it was first proposed. Of course, it is a popular wine to criticize, but the quality has never been better, and certainly 2005 is a beauty. It is reaching full maturity at ten years, but I think there is still another 10-15+ years of upside potential in this wine. It is full-bodied, opulent and, dare I say, delicious.

It has an attractive bouquet: graphite tinged black fruit, incense and violets, perhaps a little more hedonistic than I envisaged when I tasted it from barrel. The palate is medium-bodied with tensile tannin thanks to the keen line of acidity. I like the precision of this Pontet-Canet. It feels linear and correct, pencil lead notes developing towards the second half, more quintessentially Pauillac than previous vintages, with what you might describe as a classic Pauillac finish that retains the focus that I remarked upon from barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Thief","offers":[{"title":"Case of 6","offer_id":32747827822701,"sku":"14329","price":3750.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Bottle","offer_id":32803256336493,"sku":"14329","price":625.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0248\/6714\/3789\/products\/PontetCanet_01144d88-58ed-4993-8144-115847b162e8.jpg?v=1592643624"},{"product_id":"haut-brion-2017-0-75l","title":"Haut Brion 2017","description":"\u003cp\u003e53% Merlot, 40.7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.3% Cabernet Franc\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eNeal Martin: 95, James Suckling: 98\u003c\/p\u003e\r\u003cp\u003eNeal Martin: The 2017 Haut-Brion was bottled 10-18 June. It impressed from barrel and it continues to do so now incarcerated in glass. It has an irresistible bouquet with ebullient red berry fruit, sous-bois, graphite and oyster shell, perhaps one of the most Burgundy-like aromatics that I can recall in this First Growth. The palate is beautifully balanced with very fine tannins. There remains a little new oak to be fully assimilated, yet winemaker Jean-Philippe Delmas has managed to retain the symmetry that I observed from barrel a few months ago. Whilst not amongst the top tier Haut-Brion wines, it is a delicious and classy wine that will give three decades of drinking pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Thief","offers":[{"title":"Case of 6","offer_id":32747954503789,"sku":"2067","price":18120.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bottle","offer_id":32803117826157,"sku":"2067","price":3020.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0248\/6714\/3789\/products\/HautBrion_2_75c90607-54c2-45a1-ac29-3e7721efe8bc.jpg?v=1592409233"}],"url":"https:\/\/winethief.com.hk\/collections\/price_-2001-4000\/rating_94.oembed?page=10","provider":"Wine Thief","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
