2024 Skeffington

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

A walkaround tasting of cask samples at the Montrachet Wines EP tasting of 2025 Bordeaux on 29 April 2026.

Skeffington 2024, cask sample. 260 cases produced in 75cl format only. Transparent red colour. Perfumed fruit on the nose. A lovely balance on the palate with great grip in the perfumed fruit; incredibly fragrant. The persistence on the finish is so impressive. Delightful; drink now but with the structure to mature for decades. 92-94/100.

Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: DR Very Old White, Graham Stone Terraces 2011, Quevedo Branco 1986 b.2026
