A surprisingly bright and crisp (like lemons and pears) white from Paso Robles, better known for its reds. Terrific summer sips here! — 8 years ago

Robust, deep blackberry but not too heavy. Pleasant cross between a cab and merlot. — 10 years ago
Keith's annual fino dinner where I over drink carbon dated sherry. Dry start and finish with rockstar spunk. Very mineral. Special barrel at the end of the line with the oldest wine in the entire solera. — 10 years ago

This wine is robust with moderate to high tannins, which I love. But what I love even more is that it is still very smooth. — 11 years ago

Aerate a little bit. Nice dark fruity nose, very full and lush, hint of olive, smoky and nice oak. Brown sugar. Nice round mouth feel with nice quick finish that's not too tannic but has a slight kick. Very good. For a 50$ bottle... — 10 years ago

50% Merlot and 50%Chianti Classico. Blended after ageing for 3years. Cherry flavoured. #tuscany #avignonesi #montepulciano — 11 years ago
A blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Merlot, blended then aged for 24 months in 50% new and 50% once-used American oak. Deep Ruby color with aromas of black fruit, licorice and minty floral notes. The palate beautifully displays rich ripe blackberry and black cherry, a hint of sweetness, vivid acidity and the right touch of toasty vanilla oak, still youthful in development. The wine has nicely integrated tannins, still holds some grip on a long finish which should give way to let this wine age for the next decade+. Excellent, Tasting Sample! — 7 years ago

Chateau Latour is my favorite 1st Growth, they demand patience and inspire not just hedonistic pleasure but also analytical thought.
Both amazing but need massive amounts of air or another 15-20 years minimum in the cellar. I get the feeling they both will hit a plateau once they blossom and slowly move towards full maturity for decades.
The nose on the 2005 rose with little agitation and shot from the hip to nose with ease. By far the most youthful and I tense nose of the evening.
The 2000 was not dissimilar in its progression, if a bit more refined from the extra few years in the glass. A cerebral wine that was also deeply pleasurable, it kept bringing me to what this wine will be like in 15-20 or more years. Easily a 50 years wine from a macro view.
