10 Forgotten Wines From The 1970s That Were Actually Brilliant, and almost none of them received the recognition they truly deserved. In this video, we uncover ten remarkable overlooked bottles from six different countries, diving deep into the rich wine history of a fascinating decade the wine world still has not fully reckoned with. From Château Musar Bekaa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon made through civil war in Lebanon, to Ridge Monte Bello Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet that won a legendary blind tasting rematch of the Judgment of Paris thirty years later, to Vega Sicilia Único spending an entire decade in oak barrels in Ribera del Duero, these are wines that were brilliant and invisible at the same time. We explore Cahors Malbec from Clos Triguedina, Domaine Tempier Mourvèdre Bandol Rouge from Provence, Penfolds Grange Shiraz from South Australia, Mas de Daumas Gassac Languedoc Cabernet, Pichon Longueville Pauillac Bordeaux, Giacomo Conterno Barolo Riserva Monfortino from Piedmont, and the legendary Biondi-Santi Brunello di Montalcino Riserva from Tuscany. These extraordinary forgotten vintages were overlooked not because of any flaw in the wine itself, but because of the wrong label, wrong region, or simply the wrong decade for any critical press to take serious notice.
