Les Pucelles Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2004

Bright canary gold. Petrol nose. Notes of minerals, slate stone, citrus and a little sulfur. Great acidity with young primary fruit. Chewy. Long finish. Evolving at a glacial pace. You have to like the petrol nose thing to like this wine. — 6 years ago

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2016

Stands up to its name....bright red fruits (cherry/cranberry) but more exquisitely roses, violets, and wet earth....and just a touch of herbs (thyme/dill). — 8 years ago

Viña Tondonia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2002

Can't believe I've held on to this treasure for so long! Cedar and sandalwood on the nose. Silky with a bright and savory--almost vegetal--finish. Perfect with filet and steak-house style garlicky creamed spinach. These grapes were picked when I was still in high school! — 9 years ago

Kosta Browne

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2016

Nose: Ripe summer fruits; blueberries, raspberries and cranberries; burnt orange peel.

Mouth: Intense and bold with bright acidity and a soothing mouthfeel. Focused and daring, the longer it rests on the palate, the more it intensifies.

I served this wine too warm and after a slight chill for pop effect the acid came into harmony with the fruit. A nice approachable wine with bright acidity. Rose and red fruit explode on the palate. — 9 years ago

I've been cellaring this wine for many years - it's a poor man's Bourdeaux and always delicious.

In fantastic condition. Very Top Shoulder. Firm cork, pulled in one piece. Wine: Fully enveloped in its secondary aromatic life. Forest floor, sweet leather, excellent color, bright aromas, resolved tannin. It makes me think of '66 Latour, a vintage favorite. Off the 66s, probably top 3-4 of vintage. — 12 years ago

Ridge Vineyards

Monte Bello Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2000

2000 vintage. Deep ruby, edging to deep garnet around the rim, very bright. Plush on the nose. The black cassis notes from the Cab and the violets from the Cab Franc are very noticeable. The wine is developing with huge sweet spice, vanilla, smoke and leather. There's a bovril, meaty note here that's very attractive. On the palate, medium acidity, high tannin - grippy, but not coarse; well integrated. Alcohol is 13% and unobtrusive. Good concentration. Fruit is riper on palate than in the mouth, and a distinctive dark chocolate and cinnamon note. The finish is long and attractive. Hard to imagine this wine drinking any better from here. — 11 years ago

La Rioja Alta

Gran Reserva 904 Rioja Tempranillo Graciano 1998

Excellent bottle. The 01 is supposedly a better vintage but im not sure when it comes to this producer. Clear, day bright, garnet and orange brick like color, medium - concentration, orange/peach rim variation, slight sediment, low viscosity. Nose: sound, moderate intensity, stewed cherries/strawberries/raspberries, floral, spicy and lots of dill pickle and slight game. A mushroom note as well. Palate: dry, med- body, stewed plums over ripe cherries/strawberries, lilies, dill, vinegar, leather, button mushrooms, game, mulch with some cedar and coconut. Very complex. Med- tannins, medium alcohol, high acid, long finish. Between the 01 and the 98 its a tough choice of which one to put in the wine cooler to store. — 11 years ago
