These both opened up in stages, drank them side by side and at first the opus was better. Then mouton opened up and was a big presence in the room — 5 months ago

Mouton Cadet White Bordeaux Blend 2011

Excellent! It took very little time to breathe which was unexpected for a 2011. We will be buying more of this if we can find it. — a year ago

Christophe Mignon

Brut Champagne Pinot Meunier

The aromas are tropical lemon blossoms and being on a pebble beach. Lemon custard and the hint of pineapple (including that feeling on your tongue that pineapple gives you - in a very light good way) round finish. Vintages 2014/2015. Disgorged 1/6/2018. TBL — 5 years ago

Extra Brut Champagne Pinot Meunier

The nose and flavors in the mouth are more refined than the Brut, it’s subtle but obvious, making this more creamy with a longer finish. Vintages 2014/2015. Disgorged sept 17, 2018. TBL — 6 years ago

Château Tour Saint-Christophe

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. The 2021 pours a deep purple color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe dark fruits: blackberries, dark cherry, plums, purple flowers, cocoa, organic earth and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. A crowd pleaser to drink now but with enough substance to enjoy through 2036. — 4 months ago

Baron-Fuenté

Millésime Brut Champagne Blend 2014

Great bang for the buck. Yeasty savory bread, macerated peach, overripe/candied pineapple, and a long creamy mouthfeel with fine perlage. An expressive ripe style that is very well executed for the price point  — 5 months ago

Château de Montfaucon

Baron Louis Cru Des Côtes du Rhône Lirac Red Rhone Blend 2010

Really lovely Lirac, Grenache and Syrah show mostly, the proprietor (Rodolphe des Pins) (in my opinion!!) dragged his feet too long in joining the Lirac appellation, but his wines have LONG been undervalued and are fantastic at their pricepoint, I personally have more bottles of this, which I expect to age well!! — 5 months ago
