High Valley Vineyard

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

Who am I to criticize a bottle of Mouton Rothschild? Amazing, no doubt. But didn't feel balanced. Great funk on the nose. High acidity and overall mild. — 8 years ago

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1959

OMG--this old
#Latour is so massive that you could eat it with a fork!
One of the greatest vintages of the 20th century, and, even now, this wine has years of life ahead of it!
And to think that I used to work in a wine shop that had cases piled up ten high priced at $50 per bottle!

Château Cheval Blanc

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1961

I have tasted many 1961 over the years, this continues to be one of my favorite wines...The strange thing is that this bottle with its high necklinewas the youngest 1961 that I had ever tried, wine had an great Providence - One owner and one incredible cellar.

1961 was a magical year on the right bank; now over 50 years of age it has lost some weight but picked up elegance on the nose - wet clay, graphite/lead pencil, umami/truffle - nose candy for sure.

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 2007

Had over the course of a couple of nights. First night was a classic Chinon on the nose and palate, although a little lighter bodied than many other Olgas I have had. Good spice on the palate and barnyard on the nose. Second night the nose was similar but the palate mellowed. A solid Chinon but not the best I've had. Still a good value in the high-20s. — 8 years ago

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2007

2007 vintage. Drinking with Frederic Rouzaud - not yet released. Medium lemon hue. Wonderful mineral, chalky, toast and yeasty nose. White peach. On the palate, integrated high acidity, no oxigenation, fresh as a daisy, short bread and dough. Lean and mean - no richness here. Angular and clean. Very enjoyable if very young. Really enjoyable. Not yet released. — 9 years ago
