Amazing vitality still. Poise and polish, this is a gorgeous Volnay from the Meursault masters. — 3 years ago

2005. Drinking the big guns as I’m 50 on the 14th. I feel like James Halliday’s “im drinking this and you’re not”. It’s superb, the complexity is amazing. So youthful still, primary fruit, astounding structure and acid. But the nose, oh man. So seductive, deep and alluring. One of the best Burgs I’ve had in ages. — 5 years ago

Interesting wine. 05 premier cru holding up just fine, yet there is an unmistakable feral hint here. Hint of Bret? Great acid and structure with an earthy foundation. Very good with food but I can’t shake that animal edge. — 5 years ago

Such a polarising wine but we loved it. Colour was an amazing amber, deep yeasty flavours but that acid and balance were breathtaking. One of the best Champagnes I’ve ever had. Memorable in every way. — 4 years ago

Beautiful Margaret River Chard. Elegant, complex and tense. Youthful and powerful, hints of matchstick and white peach. Grapefruit and minerals on the palate with perfect length. I like this a lot. One of Australia’s best Chards, imho. — 5 years ago

25 years and holding very strong. Amarone style and kicking alcohol for its day. Still rich and balanced. Dried fruit, earth and oily engine aromas. Great tannins from the Cab. Length, depth and structure is fantastic. Scary how much age this still has. — 5 years ago

@Trevor Maskell I am amazed to learn this wine is alive and kicking. Are they currently producing wine? Brings me back to the Grateful Palate days .

@Ira Schwartz still going strong as far as vintages go, but in my humble opinion, the 90s looked and still look the best. 95, 96 and 99 are the ones to look for. The 95 last night was rock n roll.

Wow. Just wow. It tastes so complex. Like Amontillado Sherry, pears and cinnamon spice. Orange rind, oily palate and alcohol cuddles. It’s a lazy 14.5%. It’s mind blowing. Like nothing I’ve ever tried. Drinking it with Dong Po Pork. One of the best food and wine pairings I’ve tried. — 5 years ago

Allure in a glass. Earthy undertones but such sensual lift. Always been Comtes Lafon’s secret weapon Imho. Not the best vintage but beautiful balance. Quite weighty on the palate, but the aromas! Oh my. This is a good Burg! — 5 years ago

Like a Vendage Tardive. Hints of Botrytis gives a wonderful complexity. 16 years old. Lovely cumquat marmalade, wasabi and olive oil. No hint of oxidation. Unctuous on the palate yet a freshness that is confounding. Incredible length and finish. — 5 years ago
