Chateau Maillet Pomerol 2019

BORDEAUX!!! The vinous magic-maker that just keeps on giving this week! Let’s keep this flowing like MF DOOM… POMEROL. 95 POINTS. UNDER $45?!?

eRroR. ErRor. Does not compute.

How lucky are we? And by “we” I mean us, you, and the entirety of the wine-loving world. This is one of the more epic deals I’ve seen out of the Right Bank of Bordeaux, and as ever, we’re passing the savings on to you! $33, yes, THIRTY-THREE DOLLARS OFF! We’re talking less than a mile down the road from the one and only Chateau Petrus, people, this is a veritable diamond in the rough that outshines wines three times the price! This is as plush and luscious as Pomerol gets… the AROMAS! Go on and dab a few drops behind your ears before your next night out, this is some classy, perfumed nectar sure to send those endorphins skyrocketing! Not for the shy – loaded with blackberry pie, anise seed, plum jam, spicy clove, and velvety chocolate mocha – a glass of this wraps you up like a warm hug. Move over, Pumpkin Spice Latte, the new IT drink of the fall has arrived! 

The Moze-Berthon family has been fixtures of Pomerol for seven generations. Stealthily, plot by plot and row by row, they’ve added to their holdings and are now making their best wines ever in their newly renovated cellar. Land in Pomerol is rarer than hen’s teeth – Bordeaux’s smallest appellation, covering an area of only 5 square miles – this vineyard is a scant 11 acres. Mostly merlot, a bit of cab franc, this is classically endowed, modern Pomerol at an unbelievable price! Not much to go ‘round so grab some before it’s gone! Hey, MF DOOM, close things out with a slick flow for us!

"Known as the grimy limey, slimy— try me

Blimey! Simply smashing in a fashion that’s timely

Madvillain dashing in a beat-rhyme crime spree

We rock the house like rock ‘n roll

Got more soul than a sock with a hole"
