Muestra Valbuena 5 Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend 2011

Red fruit has never been as regal. The visual experience is bathed in red elegance. A hint of licorice in the nose, followed by an explosion of berries all over the place, and then the most beautiful silk as it fades into a long, subtle farewell. A beautiful surprise every time. — 7 years ago

Château Cos d'Estournel

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 1996

Tried côte à côte with the Gruaud Larose 375ml, this was a little one dimensional, primary fruit, showing more oak, think it needs another 5 years. — 9 years ago

2012 was incredibly great, as always from TSG, but not the best we've had from them. Get La Difese for 2012 for 1/5 the price. — 9 years ago

Insignia Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1985

This is the 1985 Napa Cab and was tasted out of 5 liter. This wine was excellent! Herbal notes with a touch of saddle. I was so surprised by how much red fruit was on the pallet with a wine this old! Amazing! — 10 years ago

Château Pajzos

Aszú 5 Puttonyos Tokaji 2016

Vintage 2016 | drank this a year ago and my opinion is the same: great balance because the wine has só much acidity that it gives counterplay to the sweet. Without food it is a wine with a lot of tension. With a home made brownie it became more rounded. Still potential for many many years. A treat. — 10 months ago

Felton Road

Block 5 Pinot Noir 2002

First time trying an old Felton Road and a Block 5 courtesy of Can. Forest floor, some black fruits. Great concentration with depth and intensity of flavour. Good length but never felt over-blown or heavy. Shows why this wine is an icon. 94 points — 10 years ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1986

1986 vintage. Sampled 5 bottles for a BDX dinner at Mister A's-San Diego. Double decanted and tasted through 5 hours. Rustic and chunky. Zero finesse but it's Montrose. Can hold steady at this quality for another 7-8 years easy. 3.14.24. — a year ago

Clone 6 Unfiltered Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

We had the 2013 Vintage on 5/2-3/21. This was a terrific full bodied, well balanced wine. Tastes of blackberry, plum, kirsch and vanilla on the palate. The tannins were smoothed out. A great example of the Napa floor. — 4 years ago

Chateau Dereszla

5 Puttonyos Aszú Tokaji Furmint Blend 2013

Yellow delicious apple and white peach. Very honeyed as well. This is exactly how I like my morning granola. It's been twenty years since I've been to Hungary. This is a great reminder that I've got to get back. — 5 years ago

Lodi Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

I plowed through a spicy sausage stuffed green pepper with this as a companion. Floral notes and an exotic sandlewood flavor. Finish was thin, but I'm not complaining — 8 years ago

5 Puttonyos Tokaji Aszú Sweet Furmint Blend 2012

(17/20) Ароматы абрикосового конфитюра, апельсиновой цедры, лимонного мармелада. Полусладкое с относительно высоким уровнем кислотности. Достаточно лёгкое и сбалансированное десертное вино. — 9 years ago

Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2006

Deep and complex with focused blue fruit, garrigue, stony and almost smoky. Beautiful complexity and definitely showing some secondary notes, but the acidity (at least of this bottle) was pretty high still and didn't start to integrate until 4 hours in the decanter. Plenty of life left to hold onto bottles for 5-10 years. — 9 years ago
