Philip Togni Vineyard

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

9.4

Blind Napa 14 tasting, 1st flight. Maybe the most forward young Togni I have tried- layered with plenty of nuance. Would like to revisit the Dominus- as this was not a good showing and may have been an off bottle — 9 years ago

Araujo Estate

Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Great Cali wine! Was the consensus number one wine of a tough Cali flight including 94 Dominus. Unlike the 91 Dominus you know that this is new world from California. Well made with great structure and balance. — 10 years ago

Domaine du Mistral

Plan de Dieu Rhone Valley Red Rhône Blend

Very tasty. Full bodied fruit and earth/spice. More of a "new world" southern rhone if there is such a thing. Delish and inexpensive. — 10 years ago

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 1964

Dom Perignon 1964, in magnum, shared today with Jacques Pepin on a Global Express 5000 to the Aspen Classic. I brought a Spanish porron (i.e., wine bong) and Jacques was game. Incredibly, the Champagne still had bubble, along with terrific hazelnut, brioche flavors. The landing was extra smooth and Jacques – In his cool broken English – said he thought it was because the flight attendant must have slipped him some of the DP. Fine by me. Best pre-1970's Champagne I've had.

Osprey's Dominion Vineyards

Flight Meritage Red Wine 2007

Best red from Osprey's so far. Floral bouquet with berries and a hint of tobacco. No discordant notes with a lingering, pleasant finish. Standing up to and getting along just fine with blue cheese. A keeper. #everydaygems — 11 years ago
