Saumur-Champigny Cabernet Franc 2015

Our favorite from Moore Bros. so far. Smells vegetal, but not rotten or mossy. Medium bodied. Dry. Not fruity, except maybe something like sour plum. Easy to drink. — 8 years ago

Ant Moore

Estate Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

Intense green apple and tropical fruit with a touch of lees. Zesty and fresh. A little more structure than the norm NZ Sauv. $20 — 9 years ago

The Bard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

Love. can't imagine a wine with a longer finish or more mouth feel. What a treat. With a one hour decant it didn't feel sharp or young in the slightest. — 9 years ago

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 1983

This was one of those wow wines, where you find yourself at a loss for words. I had the same wine two weeks before, and it was solid, but not memorable. It's hard to imagine this is the same wine. It was just perfect. — 9 years ago

Château Margaux

Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1986

The color and nose tells you nothing about the age of this wine. Incredibly fresh and youthful on both scores. My nasal passage was flooded with violets and cassis. The flood gates collapsed and my mouth was coated with black currants, licorice and minerals. Paved over my palate like a run away steamroller. Merely a teenager at this stage of evolution. I can only imagine what Father Time will create. If this is your birth year it will be a challenge to out live this wine. — 10 years ago

Great notes, @Ira Schwartz Surprised in how youthful this is still showing.

Great note, Ira. Get your hands on a well stored bottle of the '85 for a totally different but equally true expression of Margaux. Velvet to this one's steamroller.

Victoire from Angelus and Clyde from K&L promoting Bordeaux! This even blend of Merlot and Cab Franc sees nothing but new oak and smells and tastes expensive. As dark as black leather, this powerful wine would be hard to pick out as a 2007. The blue fruit of the franc keeps it fresh and I could imagine it going very well with Clyde's cassoulet! — 11 years ago

Very good Bordeaux, but the notes by Moore Bros were the most accurate I've ever come across. "...complex, exotic aromas that open with griotte cherries, ripe cassis, fresh fennel, crushed violets, and sweet herbs; adding dried figs, dark cocoa, and flecks of pencil shavings as the nose evolves...". Well, I missed the figs but otherwise, yes! And in that order. Remarkable. — 9 years ago

I've been looking forward to trying this producer, and I was not let down! I can only imagine the price will lee going up... gamey, herbal, spicy, refined, elegant. So good! And 2012 is decilous now, though I'm sure will only get better! — 9 years ago

Needless to say, we slayed some dragons tonight. Let the birthday week continue!

This was the one wine that was poured blind from the evening. I guessed Napa (check), I guessed early 2000s (check), but figured it a petite sirah, mainly due to the amount of lively fruit in this! Since my experience with Caymus is limited to the 40th anniversary, you can imagine how my eyes were opened. At 16yrs old, this was blueberry pie, cassis, chocolate liquor and great oak integration. Tannins were PERFECT at this point. Open if you have it!

@Patrick Derdeyn : I understand that. However, I can appreciate how this showed in comparison to the 40th anniversary Caymus...that stuff is like vanilla cough syrup. They know how to sell it though!
