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

2009 - Wow.... Just when Cali wines were starting to bore me, this came along with a crazy long finish. Can't imagine a better chard than this. Full bodied and well integrated oak with a little vanilla. Great honeysuckle and fruit. The acidity is at a perfect place; creates structure, but isn't searing. Wonderful. Ready to drink now, but no rush. — 11 years ago

I rated this 10, because I honestly can't imagine how it gets any better than this. This wine is awesome, totally kickass. It has everything you'd expect in a very old Barolo, yet has life and fruit and vibrancy. Amazingly, it has years to go and is still getting better. A huge aha experience. — 11 years ago

Contrary to other wines, D'yquem is in a class of it's own in terms of Sauternes. There is rarely, if ever, a bad year, although some years, like the 2001, stand out more than others. The disparity in quality from a GREAT d'yquem to a mediocre one & so on isn't as drastic as one might imagine. While the older vintages seem to age VERY well, it isn't as discernible from a recent vintage as other wines. Sauternes, in general are consistent, & none more than d'yquem. — 12 years ago

Le Haut Lieu 1924 Moelleux: beautiful Ripe fruit, guava, even Passionfruit, and mango. Delightfully fragrant, with yellow and white flowers, honeysuckle, acacia and early grey tea. Superb combination of freshness, length, poise, fruit (nearly every fruit you can imagine) yellow pear, Apple, lemon, peach, and a lobby of tropicals. Long long long! Lovely vein of stony notes too. In the words of Captain Flashheart "woof!" — 11 years ago

I can't imagine a Meursault much better than this. Beautiful fruit, high acids, minerals and citrus. — 11 years ago
