From Julia: "Lighter but with a lot of substance." Sommelier: "Earthy, like the soil of freshly picked strawberries. From the red sandstone cliffs of the Main valley in Germany." — 10 years ago

Smoke, earth and an ethereal lightness from the high-altitude, rocky cliffs of the Valle d'Aosta. This is a Nebbiolo to savor. — 11 years ago

1996 Ducru Beaucailou: Very dark ruby red, I guess this still would benefit from another 5-10 years (especially when comparing to something like the 10 year older Cheval Blanc). Still, an impressive cascade of exuberant dark cassis and menthol on the nose and surprising richness on the palate, this really is a 30 year wine. The tannins were maybe 90% resolved, but one had the impression of the wine still holding a little bit back. — 9 years ago
