Doctor No

Something very clean and elemental about this wine, and something Bordelaise as well, given the depth, lack of California over-ripeness and relative inaccessibility in youth. Not an "easy" wine, but neither is young Lynch Bages. — 8 years ago

Slightly acidic and a bit higher in alcohol than the smooth jazz Sonoma bottles I'm used to, but i really enjoyed this. A hint of raspberry and forest floor. — 9 years ago

I was interested to taste this when I saw the 15.8% alcohol. Surprisingly balanced, but huge, over-the-top, Pinot on steroids. Think someone else described it as maple syrupy. Pretty right on. — 11 years ago

My favorite gin to accompany tonic. Without a doubt more effervescent than hendrick's, but would recommend their dry gin for a gin martini. Very floral and delicious, little bit of spice. — 9 years ago

1986 BV George LaTour. Drank at A&S's house w Iana and K. Interested to compare to the 1974 Heitz Martha's Vineyard. A little less vibrant and rounded than the Heitz. Interesting wine though — 10 years ago

Bibiana rocks! Aromas of fresh fruit and stems of red roses are followed by a discrete juiciness and silky mouthfeel. Todd has found another superb mentor. — 10 years ago
