Edmond Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2012

What can I say about this beautiful Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre, other than vines are 40-87 years and aged on lees for 10-14 months 60% oak casks, and 20% barrels. How about having the complexity and finish of a Château Smith Haut Lafitte without the need for Sémillon. Wow! — 10 years ago

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012

Perfect amount of substance here for the category. Muddled psychedelic splash of beaune colour and fun. Concentration is on point and balanced as well, not a single bad thing I can say about this. — 11 years ago

Magnum 1982 Chateau Lafite Rothschild. Drank w K at M School auction in Napa. Amazing. Such a great contrast to the 1989 Haut Brion. This didn't have that gamey character. Smooth, less acid, velvet mouthfeel and long finish. Epic. Hands down winner. Such a treat — 11 years ago

Attractive red currant and plum fruit dusted with dry toasted oak spices, and an undercurrent of tobacco and mushroom on the nose, with silky tannins. Truly appealing in its complexity and refinement.
