Dunn Vineyards

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Takes time to open up, could use more time laying down, but drinking nicely. Interestingly I think 2011 is already better now. — 8 years ago

Holy sh$t ... salon tasting ? A rep there ? Or you hit the lottery and you’re emptying your bank account !?!

6 Champagne lovers each brought one bottle of Salon to dinner to share with the group. Sadly the 1982 Salon seemed to have storage issues. Happily the back-up was 2000 Krug Clos du Mesnil, which bested all the Salons for wine of the night!

Pio Cesare

Barolo Nebbiolo

Mmmm this was very good. Good fruit concentration with an aroma right down my alley - dry fruit, smokey, earthy, earl grey and a little nutmeg. Full body, high tannins and a long finish, of course, for a Nebb ;) — 9 years ago

Clos des Papes

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend

2010. Not a lot of notes from me in the long tasting. It was up against 07 Pegau which I could put down. Very enjoyable though. — 11 years ago
