Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1999

Perfect pairing with crème brûlée. Doesn’t feel like like 20 years old, but more like 3-4 years on bottle. Can age for 50+ years easily. — 6 years ago

Tenuta Sette Ponti

Oreno Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 1999

Happy Father's Day 2020 to all; I'm posting pictures of our fur-kids, an independent and somewhat self-interested bunch. Two boys (9) and two girls (3), all rescued from various locations across the East Coast of the US. They generally bring the utmost of joy to my life on a daily basis.

Nose has blackberry jam on moist leather, minor cedar, very light barnyard notes, grilled blackberry,
blueberry compote, brewed dark roasted coffee, wet garden soil, chocolate vines candy and dried orange peel.

Palate has over-ripe blackberry, wet tanned leather, dark chocolate syrup, dehydrated black cherry, chocolate covered blueberry and moist cedar.

Silky smooth, intense finish running +2m, still showing tannins. Expect this bottle to easily hold another 10+ years without concern, in proper storage.

Decanted ~5h. Paired with well salted (in advance), medium-rare, grilled NY strip steaks from my favorite, local farmer in Columbia Co. NY (Kinderhook Farm) and sauted, early season, baby squash in ozro with our garden herbs.

INAUGURAL vintage on this wine, I certainly didn't realize that fact when we bought it in September 2005! This has been in storage for the prior 15 years, just coming back home in January 2020.

Drank 11/10/17.

Big fan of this wine. Beautiful bouquet of earth, black berries, and cedar. Very nicely balanced, with sweet black cherry, tar, and moderate tannins. Long finish. This should hold for another 10 years, but seems to be in a sweet spot right now. A great option while waiting for your 2010's to mature.

4/21/9/5/4 +50 = 93 pts.

La Rioja Alta

Gran Reserva 904 Rioja Tempranillo Graciano 2005

Had at Christmas, the best rioja I've had. Plum and layers of flavor, the med+ tannins work fine to hold this together. Really good value still at $50. Rated #1wine of 2016 seems a little generous though. — 8 years ago

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1959

OMG--this old
#Latour is so massive that you could eat it with a fork!
One of the greatest vintages of the 20th century, and, even now, this wine has years of life ahead of it!
And to think that I used to work in a wine shop that had cases piled up ten high priced at $50 per bottle!
