Saint - Romain Chardonnay 2012

A good buttery Chardonnay — 9 years ago

Domaine de L'Arlot

Clos des Forêts St. Georges Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2008

Took a Coravin sample. Light on its feet elegant. I would think drink now no need to keep the 2008's. Acidic tannins mellowed out. A great wine. Black currant. Tasted again tastes almost like northern climate Syrah. — 10 years ago

Vineyard 29

Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

07' Vineyard 29 Estate Cabernet. Decanted for 1+. Dark brick red/purple in color. My humble opinion it's one of the best 2007's. Close to a one minute finish! It has 20+ years in it!
Grace family previously owned these vineyards. I wonder if they regret selling them?

@Ron R I wanted to give it a better score. I watch my Washington wizards get their ass kicked. My wife and I needed to drown our sorrows out.

Château Malescot St. Exupéry

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2003

Nice nose of dark cherry and coffee Very soft on the palate showing plums and fig to go along with the cherries. Very soft an elegant. Has shed its youthful tannins and is in a perfect spot right now. Start drinking those 03's. — 11 years ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1975

Neck fill and cork tight and sweet sounding when you pull it. You almost can tell if a bottle will be good by how the cork comes out. Juicy still with dark cranberry notes, pure of fruit and melted tannins and acid backbone. Love it as not sure how these 75's would have aged. — 10 years ago

Château Léoville Poyferré

Saint Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1975

Wonderful soft mixed fruit that have blended into classic claret. Decanted three hours and it was solid food wine all evening. Our 40th anniversary pre-wine. Not tannic like most '75's- mid weight with a nice aromatic finish - a joy to drink. — 10 years ago
