Château Lafite Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

1982 Lafite living up to its reputation. Elegance amid concentrated fruit, with the requisite tobacco, cedar, and lead pencil notes everyone said are supposed to be there. The real deal, benchmark Bordeaux, benchmark wine... — 9 years ago

Monte Real Reserva Rioja Tempranillo 1973

Paul Costigan
9.5

1973: Beautiful bottle. Wines like this make everyone stop and take notice. The color was clear and light. Arresting nose full of plums and roasted beets. The depth of flavor and long finish was in contrast with the appearance. Really a fine experience, only second to the few times I had the 1952 Mont Real. — 8 years ago

Canto de Luna

Valle de Guadalupe Tempranillo Blend

A nice Tempranillo Shiraz & Cab blend from an organic estate in Valle de Guadalupe Mexico, fantastic estate run by great people. This bottle is a very good blend, deep mineral flavor, low acidity, notes of wood and cherry, a bit of sweet and risemary. Loved it! — 9 years ago

Krug

Brut Champagne Blend 2006

Beautiful vintage Krug, but clearly still very young (which is slightly nuts). Bubbles are quite fine but still very present. Yeasty and mouth filling - there is real power here. Deep and intense on the palate, long finish, great acid. Very fun to try - but would love to try in 5-10 years. — 3 years ago

Casa Real Reserva Especial Valle del Maipo Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

A great wine for a special day. The name Casa Real is to honor Don Vicente Garcia Huidobro, whose title was given by the King of Spain in the 18th century.
It is the best of the chilean terroir, coming from the heart of Vale del Maipo. Preserved in French oak, it's a must! After "breathing" it gets even better. Cheers!
