Pont Neuf
"Les Rouges" Russian River Valley Red Blend 2011
Reminds me of beaucastel, dark ripe red and black fruit and dusty tannins, flowers and oak, really beautiful — 8 years ago
Château Cheval Blanc
Le Petit Cheval St. Emilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2009
Beautiful and elegant, very little tannin, ripe red and black fruit and sage, had some barnyard to the nose but as it opened became very soft and elegant, floral notes appeared, really good could last 20 more years — 7 years ago
Krug
Clos du Mesnil Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay 2003
This was way too young, but absolutely stunning. Exotic fruit flavors and layer upon layer of sophistication. Really special — 7 years ago
Waterstone
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011
Tasty stuff, dark fruit, ripe blackberries and some chocolate flavors, could be more interesting in 5 years — 8 years ago
Château Haut-Brion
La Clarté de Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2010
This is great wine. Exotic fruit flavors turned to roasted Asian pear and oily spices as it sat. Gotta get more — 7 years ago
Château Haut-Brion
Le Clarence de Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Brendan Rea
Wine of the night. Extremely focused cassis and black fruit flavors, no oak or Brett, light tannins that just tasted like that of a perfectly sweet fresh black raspberry. Didn't want to finish this bottle — 7 years ago
