Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

Colt 45 works every time. Remember those commercials? https://youtu.be/0pK5HmuCMBM I do. Grand puy Lacoste is my go to Bordeaux. It never disappoints, this one is still a little young but a great pauillac with graphic , dark fruit and just starting to show more complexity. The 2012 is on the market for $50 probably one of the better Cabernet values in the market especially given Napa prices recently. As for this 05, drink now or over the next 20 years — 8 years ago

Aberlour Distillery

A'bunadh Batch 45 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Spicy oaks, mixed with condensed brown sugar, strong personality, powerful and enjoyable. Aftertaste of zest and spice. She bites your tongue and throat for sure. But I feel she is a bit overpriced. — 9 years ago

Those cask strength burn on the way down, I had that one. Definitely needs a splash or rock.

Realm Cellars

The Bard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2004

Total beast. Did a quick double decant since it's 12 years old but should have let it open for a couple of hours. Eye watering nose of dirt, nutmeg, cinnamon, bramble, and camphor. Massive palate with plenty of fruit and tannin left. 45 second finish. What an awesome cab blend! — 9 years ago

Very nice @Eric Shanks. I've never experienced a Realm wine, but I always see great things about it.

I've only had a few @Shay Aldriedge , but all were amazing. Especially the Beckstoffer. Older vintages on the secondary market are pretty reasonable too.

Awesome wine. Way way young. But way way awesome. Classic. Roses and tar for days. Big furry tannins. Juicy and so fresh. Loads of deep bright cherry fruit. Amazingly long. Huge acids. I’d revisit in 10 years. — 8 years ago

2010. A classic Chateauneuf-Du-Pape from a historic vineyard. Needs to breathe at least 45 minutes--could age a little longer. — 8 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1945

Tasted blind. Ruby color. Almost opaque. Young fruit forward nose. Notes of plums, mocha, dark chocolate, coffee, cinnamon and some exotic thing like eucalyptus. So rich and vibrant in the mouth. A forever finish. This wine took us in all directions. Immortal. Stan's 60th will always be remembered for the 45 Latour vs 45 Mouton mano y mano battle. A wine life moment for sure. — 9 years ago

Château Calon-Ségur

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

An incredibly precise Calon-Segur, almost certainly infanticide. Perfectly delineated layers of dark red fruit, already quite nuanced. Earthy and tannic finish that lasted 45+ seconds, a 95+ St Estephe in 5-10 years. Worth waiting. — 10 years ago

Château Lascombes
