Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1991

Another one. In good condition even if the cork was impossible. Opened up well as it shed all the meaty, coffee age to be a elegant and assertive speaker. — 10 years ago

Thanks. I got my hands on a couple of 66s the other day with levels around the top half of the embossed brand. Don't have much experience with ullage in this bottle shape so that's reassuring to hear!

Special Selection Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

If there's a bottle of wine with a longer cork, Ive never had it...anywho, this starts with a nose of dusty spice and bramble with a really smooth palate of cassis, molasses, and stewed dark fruits...nice. — 10 years ago

Peach, strawberry, little bit of nuttiness, lees and citrus. Pretty wine. — 11 years ago

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 1989

A little rough in the aromatics. Cork was suspect, looked and smelled a bit funky. wine was otherwise youthful in the mouth with raspberry, tar, spice and plenty of lively acid. Have a few more '89s and think its time. overall a beautiful wine still but perhaps in aromatic decline. - 1989 vintage — 11 years ago

Opus One

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

I'd get to drinking your 97's now. Good...great actually but beginning to lose a lot. Cork was quite soft on mine. Flavor...like California...but smoother ;-) — 11 years ago
