Galius Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2016 Bordeaux Red Wine, $33.99-$39.99, 90 points, poured an impenetrable deep red with a broad unfiltered garnet-red meniscus, a clear wine ring, and a torrent of hanging legs.
Aromas of red cherry liqueur, a hint of sour plums, a cornucopia of red and black fruit with a hint of cardamom were okay.
Full-bodied dry red wine with firm tannins, fair acidity, and robust fruit flavors begged for more time in the bottle, but now showed some possibilities with nuanced mint, earth, and a floral note.
Finished long, tannic, and warm on a balanced 14% alcohol infused white pepper spiciness.
Paired okay with my spice-rubbed medium rare Porterhouse, but was better with my Philly cheese steak sub.
