Château Margaux
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2009

Scarpetta
Timido Third Edition Spumante Rosé Colli Orientali del Friuli Rosé Blend
Fruit forward, small refreshing bubbles, and a bit of bread dough character! Would go with any food! — 12 years ago
Château Kirwan
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2003
Clocking in at only 13% abv, this third growth vintage 2003 is an absolute stunner. Suave and sophisticated, abundant fruit, nice acid to balance, minerality, well integrated tannins and long finish! For maximum enjoyment decant 1 hour or more before imbibing. And yes it has amazing aging ability, this wine is still clearly a youngster, full of youthful ambitions! — 13 years ago
Third Wheel
California Red Blend
It definitely needs to breathe a but but its good. Fruity without being too sweet. I drank it after a long work week and frankly it did the trick! Worth a try and a good wine to bring to a party of non/wine drinkers alike. — 11 years ago
Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1982
My third time having this wine in the last year and while it was still amazing it wasn't quite up to the level of the last 2. I suspect just bottle variation. Still vibrant, aromatic and full of life. Still slightly tannic with tobacco, cassis, Forrest floor, leather and some nice chocolate and black fruits. I think it's at peak now but has plenty of life left. A wonderful mature Bordeaux — 12 years ago
La Jota Vineyard Co.
Anniversary Release Cabernet Sauvignon 1994
Sadly, this was my last bottle of the '94 La Jota Cabernet Sauvignon '13th Anniversary Release'. Under Helen Turley's superlative winemaking skills these mid-nineties efforts were quite formidable. Big smoky aromas of black fruit and minerals explode from the glass. I still tasted the slowly diminishing flavors well over a minute after swallowing. Absolutely a heavenly wine! — 14 years ago
Lewis Chester
Grande Cuvée NV. Oldest wine 1988. Amazing. Blend works especially well here. Rich and generous. Concentrated, but precise and long. Citrus and stone fruit - fresh. Touch of coffee notes that adds complexity and complexity to the mid palate. NB: 4,000 kg Marc translates to 2,050 for 1st Taille. 450 litres for 2nd and 3rd tail is sold off to third parties - never used for Krug. — 11 years ago
