Probably my most favorite! Not inexpensive at restaurants ($65-$76), but pairs so well with just about anything. Year after year it is consistently great. It's hard not to share it, but then you must keep multiple bottles in stock! — 11 years ago
Nicely preserved couple of bottles, opened up just nice after 20 minutes in a decanter. Tightly reduced nose at first, revealed its complex underwood, cigar box, kirsch flavours after a while. The palate was thin almost fragile but still balanced, on the alcohol, acidity and well polished tannins. Very good surprise for a 38 y.o. wine (except for the tricky cork :) — 13 years ago
Silky blackberry and black cherry. Mild tannins and acidity. Very nice, but I think a bit overrated. One could purchase two bottles of comparable wine--and probably more interesting to the taste buds--for the same price. — 9 years ago
Always amazing wine. Never been disappointed in the dozens of bottles over the years. 05 is true to style and will only get better over the next 20+ yrs — 11 years ago
Perfect after extracting the crumbly cork. Perfect balance at peak I only have two more bottles of this. — 13 years ago
Probably the most expensive bottles of wine I've ever tasted at $750 a bottle. 1995 Lafite-Rothschild, Pauillac. First Growth! — 13 years ago
Absolutely amazing...only a few more bottles left. — 9 years ago

The Emirates flight crew altered me that @Claire Owen and I consumed a total of 4 bottles on the flight...worth it, I think? Needed something to pair with the caviar and canapés. #EmiratesSuites #a380 #honeymoon — 9 years ago
