Opus One

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1980

Thia bottle was opened at Valette in Healdsburg, CA. Chef Dustin prepared a special matching tasting menu to pair with this beauty. The genius of crafting wine that tastes so good some 37 years after the fact still boggles the mind. Smooth glycerine integration of cedary petrol notes complemented fresh cut camomile flower and ripe cherries - I mean what? How did these youthful notes survive after all these years. Such an incredible wine. — 9 years ago

One of chef de cave Geoffroy's favorite vintages, but not mine. The heat of the year and lack of Chardonnay makes for a flatter than expected Champagne. At The Relais & Chateau vertical of Dom Perignon with chef de cave Richard Geoffroy. — 11 years ago

Andrea Oberto

Barolo Nebbiolo 2013

Tonight we are keeping it simple at home. We ordered delivery from Pasta Flyer, the brainchild of Mark Ladner who made his name as the Executive Chef of Del Posto during its 4*s from the NY Times days. The Rigatone with Ragu is delicious and the sort of thing that is nigh impossible to achieve at home given the slow cooking patience involved. The Fusilli with Basil Pesto is a little grassy but tasted of spring. The Spaghetti with meatballs is probably the least authentic pasta but it can only be a crowd pleaser. Who cares if it isn't Italian... We are in New York. New York authentic, perhaps. The quantity could feed a crowd, which made me happy as I was hungry and didn't need to share.

I opened this entry level Barolo from Oberto. 2013 was such a fabulous vintage for Barolo and it's great to see success at the affordable level as well as the top end. This under $40 wine is plush, inviting and just plain scrumptious. Midweight, it's one for the near term, which is fine by me. Crack open some of these while waiting for the big boy Barolos to age in the cellar for a few years.

Simple and delicious. Pasta and Barolo.

Kosta Browne

Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2011

We are having a bottle of Kubota Manju (one of my best sake) and a bottle of Kubota Tokugetsu (seasonal sake made in autumn annually) with the boys while eating kaiseki sushi at Sakuraya. Hiro Sakurada, owner/chef won a contest in Washington DC as the best sushi chef in America in 2000. After closing his many restaurants in New York, he and his wife Keiko opened a BYOB sushi restaurant in Honolulu. After running out of sake, we opened a bottle of Kosta Browne and it was a delight. Surprisingly, it went well with sushi. — 11 years ago

Joey Tensley is my hero! The man makes magic in the glass and his Syrahs are legendary. There is nothing that I have tried that I didn’t love. Colson Canyon is their signature grape but everything they touch becomes magic. Better and better all night as it opened up. — 8 years ago

Degorgement 09/2008. Champagne de puissance, onctueux. La générosité de ce Champagne me fait penser à la maturité sensuelle des vins gourmands d'Avize. Les sels équilibrent cette bouche ample et majestueuse. Coup de cœur, c'est un chef d'œuvre. — 11 years ago
