Complexity Wines

Krug

Grande Cuvée Brut Champagne Blend

Ryan Bonnici
9.3

Delicate and rich with meaty nuttiness. A superfine bead, there is plenty of toast, dried fruit and hazelnut complexity. Magnificent! — 9 years ago

Château Ducru-Beaucaillou

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

DrinkBordeaux
9.6

Impressive complexity and concentration. Nose of dark ripe fruit, truffle, and violet. Silky smooth palate, round tannins. Enjoyable now, but will really improve with time! — 10 years ago

Château Musar

Bekaa Valley Red Blend 2007

Mark Gunning
9.2

Classic Musar complexity on the nose. Not as tannic as the 2005 and a bit more approachable than the last vintage. Lots of black fruits. Still lots of ageing potential. — 11 years ago

Better than previous vintages but outside of serious Bordeaux Blanc, I have to say I don't think oak is appropriate.

Dom Pérignon

P2 Brut Champagne Blend 1998

Gary Westby

What a difference an extra five years on the lees and a drop in dosage makes! This wine is a huge improvement on the regular release, with elegance and complexity to spare. — 11 years ago

Château Cheval Blanc

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

Justin Mahoney
9.7

Rich tobacco and leather nose with a strong cassis, barnyard, baking spice and stewed tomato aromas. Great complexity and smooth elegance. It has the structure and complexity to go another 10 to 20. Deeeelicous! — 10 years ago

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

Artemis Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Kai Chang
9.2

Clear deep purple colour with watery rim. Clean medium intensity aroma with minty black cherry and black currant with hint of oak smokiness and vanilla. Dry on the palate full bodied medium alcohol with medium acidity and high but smooth velvety tannin. Flavours of earthy black currant, black cherry, and vanilla. Flavours last through into its long pleasant finish. Very good quality, drink now but can age for another 3 to 5 years for a even more balanced complexity. — 11 years ago
