Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc White Rhone Blend 1995

90, 95, 98. 90 was magic. Best bottle of 90 for me. As good and refined as dr funkenbeaucastel can be. 95 was very good just a tough follow to the 90. 98 is really young, lots of potential. Another much adored flight. — 9 years ago

Central Coast Petite Sirah 1998

9.5

The 98 drinks more like a Pinot now than the petit Syrah it was, although always it was a wine of greater subtlety and finesse than any petit Syrah I know. It's lighter than a Californian might be but in the Burgundian style it is probably tilting the scale toward fuller body, reflecting an American terroir within that style, or so I speculate. I have adored every stage of its maturation and it is hard for me to say when it gave the most. — 10 years ago

Ramey Wine Cellars

Annum Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

"Sage, rosemary, menthol, dark plums, licorice and sweet tobacco meld together in the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum. Plush, round and inviting, the 2010 appears to have a very bright future ahead of it. The balance of sweet, layered fruit and the structure of the year is simply dazzling. I have always adored David Ramey's 2010 Cabernets. Today, they are dazzling."
- Antonio Galloni, Vinous, February 2014

​Aging on fine lees incorporates the oak so that the two years the Annum spends in 100% new French barrels is barely noticeable. As with all of our wines, it goes through native yeast and malolactic fermentations. This wine combines the harmony produced by traditional Bordelaise winemaking techniques with the voluptuousness of Napa Valley terroir. It is lightly fined with egg whites and bottled without filtration.

Marlborough Pinot Noir 2013

Completely seamless and well structured. In a time where the frosting frequently is adored more than the cupcake, this one might get overlooked. Showed much more mid palate on the second day. Lovely. — 9 years ago

Halenberg GG Riesling 2013

It takes a pretty incredible effort to make a #wine that is so impressive and lovely, yet still so young that everyone at the table unanimously adored it.
This even gives the epic 2012 a run for its money, which is saying something!
