Charles Joguet
Clos de la Dioterie Chinon Monopole Cabernet Franc 2012
A wonderfully balanced wine. Red and purple fruit with A vegetal quality. Could be enjoyed alone. But something like a shepherds pie or a rustic dish would make it sing. — 8 years ago
Tenuta San Guido
Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 1989
Outstanding! There is the perfect moment for a bottle to be opened and tonight was it. It was the wine equivalent of a album that you can listen to from start to finish. — 9 years ago
Emrich-Schönleber
Monzinger Frühlingsplätzchen Spätlese Riesling 2006
Wonderfully balanced. Moderate presence of petroleum on the nose. Lychee, bruised apple and candied tropical fruit. Bright and alive. — 8 years ago
Adrian Fog
Oppenlander Vineyard Pinot Noir
A surprising richness with sour black cherry and baked strawberry. For having a little age it is still young. At first smell purple flowers and herbs de provenance come flying out of the glass. — 8 years ago
Tenuta San Guido
Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2001
Still drinking like it was just bottled. Quite enjoyable but it could have been decanted the day before. — 9 years ago
Taittinger
Comtes de Champagne Grand Crus Brut Blanc de Blancs 2005
Ripping acidity. Fresh brioche. Golden apple. With oysters it was heavenly. — 9 years ago
Schramsberg Vineyards
J. Schram Brut Rosé
Finesse and powerful. The age showed no oxidation. Time rounded out the rough edges. — 8 years ago
Stag's Leap Wine Cellars
Lot 2 Cabernet Sauvignon 1974
Bright and alive. Stripped down to it's true self. Showed no signs of decline. Could of waited another ten years but it had to be opened. Bold fruit had mellowed and the oak had integrated with perfect balance. — 8 years ago
Château Palmer
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1995
This bottle started off on the wrong foot. It was muted and a bit dumb. After A decanting and about 4 hours it evolved into a beautiful experience. — 9 years ago
Brian Duffy
Sommelier & Beverage Director The Barrymore Las Vegas
Extremely powerful. As a 2013 it was way too young to be opened. There is great promise when it gets a few more years to age. Super rich black fruit, currant and chocolate. Once the immediate oak influences integrate it should be amazing. — 8 years ago
