Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2015 Haut-Condissas had been bottled a week before my visit. That said, there does not appear to be too much bottle shock, and there are lovely black cherry, cassis fruit tinged with incense and violets. The oak is neatly integrated here. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, an attractive saline note that lends this 2015 sappiness and neatly counterbalances the concentration of the vintage. I appreciate the focus here and the nascent energy, a Haut-Condissas that should easily give 20+ years of pleasure. Tasted at the Haut-Condissas vertical at the property. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (90+)The 2016 Haut Condissas has an opulent bouquet with crème de cassis, blueberry and light truffle scents that emerge with time. The palate is sweet on the entry but there is plenty of structure here, grippy in the mouth with cedar and tobacco infused dense black fruit on the finish. This will require a couple of years in bottle but there is clearly potential here. |
