Mid nineties in Havana calls for a cold beer. Rather tasty and hit the spot. Want to cheers all the wonderful people we met and wish them the best. We were lucky to make it to this beautiful city the week before the new sanctions went into effect. Hopefully it will be short so the good people of Cuba don’t suffer too much. — 6 years ago

La Joie Sonoma County Red Blend 1999

Beautifully aged. Paired so perfectly with Chef Norman Van Aken’s Pork Havana at his Orlando Ritz Carlton location. Medium toast from the oak, vanilla, balanced, velvety mouth feel. Dried fruits, blackberry, cherry, tobacco, licorice. Soft around the edges. Decanted for two hours. Could cellar for a few more years. — 7 years ago

Great tasting note and, by the sounds of it, fabulous meal.

@Katherine Bordelon I am a big fan of chef Norman. Loved his Mongolian veal chop at his original spot in Coral Gables.

Yes, Chef Norman is special. Have you tried his place in Mt Dora? Norman’s 1921? It’s a find. They love to place obscure wines on their menu. The staff is always on point there and of course the tasting menu a must.

This was one of the best aged rums I have had... (second only to Zafra 30?) - combining Cuban cigars with Habana Club... can’t go wrong, right? 🇨🇺 — 8 years ago

Château Belgrave

Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 1945

‪This Chateau Belgrave 1945, from a half bottle with a lower mid-shoulder level, was simply one of the most enjoyable wines I’ve ever had. Absolutely stunning; smokey, aged tobacco leaves - like a cigar shop in Havana. Lovely acidity, and phenomenal length! What a vintage:-D‬ — 7 years ago

Plungerhead Lodi Petite Sirah 2015

Delicious. Deep ruby purple red with heavy legs on the glass. Powerful nose of ripe plum and black currant with a hint of leather. Wonderful explosion of flavor in the mouth. The vinous equivalent of a Havana cigar. More prune and red fruit on the tongue with leather, cedar and tobacco prominent. A spectacular value. Gentle finish with balanced tannins and salty minerals. Strong and elegant right now. — 8 years ago

Havana Rose Malbec 2013

Peppery with a spicy kick. Nice. — 8 years ago

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 1999

A pronounced note of Havana ash on the nose, with earth and blue and red fruits on the palate, this is very enjoyable now. Whether it gets any better depends on your preference for fruit or for more tertiary notes. If it's the former, drink up. If the latter, hold a couple of years. — 9 years ago
