Boxler is widely considered one of the top producers in Alsace, although this small, meticulously run estate is often overshadowed by its larger, more famous neighbors (Trimbach, Humbrecht etc.). But that suits current winemaker/proprietor Jean Boxler just fine.

Very expressive nose of morello cherry and brown tobacco, with sweet notes of licorice candy and peony. A complex palate, expressing violet and fresh blackcurrant, finishing with hints of thyme and a touch of bitter orange zest that gives the finish a gourmet taste. It is a sensual and charming, yet restrained Saint-Estephe. Silky, smooth tannins give this Pez 2018 a precise and refined length.

Clarendelle Saint-Émilion, Inspired by Haut-Brion, is a subtle blend of three traditional Bordeaux grape varieties: Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine expresses all the mystery of Saint-Émilion, with this unique style. It is a real wine of pleasure and sharing.

Golden yellow colour; lemon curd and roast pineapple flavours, plus custard apple and nutmeg. The juicy, unctuous palate has a bright citrus acidity keeping everything fresh and zippy. Complex, classic style and flavours; honeyed apricots give the necessary tang, with the lovely edge of bitterness providing further complexity and pizzazz. Lovely long finish. Bring the foie gras!

On the nose: Scents of freshly picked forest fruits with notes of salinity, reminiscent of a summer evening on the beach.
On the palate: Perfectly balanced, vibrant strawberry grenadine and currant, ending with remarkable freshness.
Food Pairings: Beef skewers, Marinated pork chop, Steamed salmon, Fresh strawberries.

Firm, but balanced, this is a wine with many of the virtues of the vintage. It has weight and richness, but also fresh, juicy, fruity acidity all packaged nicely in tannins.

Clos de la Vieille Eglise, the tiny property estate of Jean-Louis and Benoît Trocard, has an opulent bouquet with layers of ripe cassis and blueberry fruit, just showing a little more alcohol than its Pomerol peers. The palate is ripe and generous on the entry. I was expecting it to spill over into something overdone... but no. It is actually very elegant and harmonious with great depth and very fine persistence.
