Bought in Cahors a few weeks ago! A great tasting experience at Cht. Lagrezette. 10 years old and drinking oh so well. The deliciousness factor is off the charts, couple that with earthy qualities and you have yourself a world class wine. Bravo! I could’ve waited another year or two but I have no patience and no cellar on my boat. I’m happy and my steak is happy — 7 years ago
This is what I want from a rosé! Bright acid, strawberry, pink and red flowers, all kinds of shit floating in it. This wine has it all!!! — 8 years ago
Kicked off with some green-ish notes but the fruit takes over after a 1.5hr decant. Red fruit floating on your palate, lighter than you would think for a Napa cab..#meatsweatmondays — 8 years ago
Decent merlot blend, even better since it was complimentary from casino host on Royal Caribbean cruise boat! :) — 8 years ago
No mind the floating sediments this is the real deal....malty with no bitterness and full in your mouth goodness — 9 years ago
Barrel aged from his Touriga Nacional led blend of old vine Portuguese vines lost in the Sierra, this delicate yet plush rosé brings sensations of dreaming of summer-- of tomatoes, peaches, & watermelon-- like a lyric from a song you know you'll never forget-- like a sensual reverie on "this floating world" where "parties are never meant to last..." — 9 years ago
Something else. Peated high high. Comparable to the Laphroaig Quarter Cask. I'm on a boat — 7 years ago
Had this wine on the boat to Ibiza .smooth full body with cherry and chocolate notes — 7 years ago
Sumptuous and quite full with loads of jammy, deep, dark fruits; like taking a bite out of a juicy plum. The nose reminded me of the fullness and complexity of Caymus Special Selection but on the palate it, of course, was not in the same boat. Definitely more sweet and less complex with little-to-no earth and dust. Delicious, though, regardless of what it made me think of. — 7 years ago
Delicious wine enjoyed with strip steak & jumbo lump crab. Dinner under a boat-sail roof in the grotto at Savant, Christiansted, St Croix — 8 years ago
Light and sweet, but not too sweet. Perfect for summer day while floating in the pool — 7 years ago
One of the hottest restaurants in town, Saturday night, the week before Cara's birthday: all the makings of a delightful date night.
Rarely is chicken king but at Le Coq Rico that's very much the case. Antoine Westermann apparently spent years trying to find the perfect chicken before he was comfortable opening the New York outpost of his famed Parisian poultry eatery. The Brune Landaise is indeed a beautiful bird, heavy on the white meat yet utterly succulent and flavorful. Anyone eating at Le Coq Rico should also try the extraordinary slow cooked eggs to start and end with I'ile Flottante, a perfectly spherical soft meringue floating in a sea of rich crème anglaise. Indulgent and divine.
I brought a 1994 L'Eglise Clinet, which I picked up a few years ago. Apparently this wine is considered a standout in an otherwise difficult vintage. Supple and right at its peak, this medium bodied Bordeaux has hints of cherry and tar that evolves beautifully on the palate. (Corkage is $50 per 750ml, max two per table.) — 8 years ago
This has become the go to boat wine. Should have bought more magnums... — 9 years ago
Perfect with fresh fish-fry, grouper & Yellowtail just off the boat from Key West. Well balanced all around! — 9 years ago
