Carole Bouquet

Bodegas Alto Moncayo

Campo de Borja Garnacha 2012

This is definitely a great bottle. High alcohol but once it opens up the bouquet is marvelous; Vanilla, baking spices, fresh berries and cream. All upfront taste... bright fruit, berries, orange notes, red apple skin, medium-high tannins but all upfront clean finish, surprisingly light body. I would recommend this wine and would be an easy seller with a decent price point. — 8 years ago

Excellent. Even better the second day. A lot of grip but the tannins are well integrated. — 10 years ago

Sauvignin from Switzerland. The Jura fiend in me is very excited. Not as oxidized as a typical Jura, but certainly has notes of hazelnut and orange blossom. — 10 years ago

As this opens more, increasing tannins. Still soft though. The finish is longer too - clocking it at a minute

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2005

Fantastic bouquet, super floral notes, blackberry, creme de cassis, minerals, vanilla, oak, just big time terrior. A great vintage, great balance, great finish, just a great wine. Worth the money. — 9 years ago

Château Palmer

Bouquet Garni Bennett Valley Syrah 2009

Finally trying the 2009 Morlet Bouquet Garni the nose has a peppery earthy & the comm#es a blackberry liqueur, the palate I has a rich cassis & blackberry syrup with a couch or pencil lead or graphite and soft tannins integrating in this wine with a long finish! — 9 years ago

Caymus Vineyards

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

V13. Very good today, great tomorrow! Very nice cedar bouquet, deep blackberry and plum fruit with a spicy and very slight green pepper finish . Wine is really good today , but there is a slight "newness" that will eventually round out. Enjoyable dinner wine. — 10 years ago

Château Cheval Blanc

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1990

Sweet bouquet reminiscent of carmellized sugar upon opening. Wonderful fruit and outstanding depth of flavor with potential to continue evolving over several more years. — 10 years ago

Château Margaux

Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1934

1934 Château Margaux

Top shoulder fill. Semi-opaque at the core, almost like an old burgundy with its brownish hews. Beautiful and graceful bouquet of roses, raspberries that have been baked, very elegant and healthy nose. At first very dry, with the fruit barely hanging on for dear life, but after 15 minutes in the decanted it comes alive with sweet fruit, high acidity and just a kiss of tannin. This is very complex and sublime for about a period of 20-40 minutes, what else could you ask for from a 80 year old bottle of wine.
THANKS DAVE !!
