Grande Cuvée Brut Champagne Blend

Golrious balance. Cork was compressed and showing age, though I stored this in my cold cellar. Nose of yellow fruits and flowers. All of a piece, though feeling a bit spendy.
Happy Mother's day to my wife, paired w almond croissants and truffled eggs.

Tignanello Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2017

No. 4 wine at the Downs Club Super Tuscan Dinner. No detailed notes Mainly Sangiovese - some Cabernet. Showing some sweet French Oak spice. Ramon reckons the 2017 could be cellared for 10 years whereas the 2016 could be cellared longer. An hour later that sweetness still there. — 3 years ago

Château Lynch-Bages

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2011

When you have to travel on a Sunday, and that Sunday happens to be Mother's Day, you're not exactly psyched. This little oasis in the Delta Sky Club afforded me the opportunity to smile. Not a bad pour, regardless of the price. Typical Lynch-Bages cigar tobacco and leather with some luscious and velvety black fruit. Finished a little flat, most likely due to being open for a while in the fancy automated pour gizmo. But still smiling! — 7 years ago

Malvedos Vintage Porto 1999

you better have port wine on your screen, and graham's is a big player, big in quality, though, as well!
never say "industrial" here.
qd malvedos is a sub vinery and allowed to make it's own vintage ports in years graham's doesn't declare.
this is a catch, really, if you are lucky enough to get it!
