Immortal Estate

Domaine Pascal Cotat

La Grande Côte Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 1996

Honey, candied macadamia, off dry and seemingly immortal 20 years later. Complex, fresh, intriguing. Stunning verve and inimitable . Superb! — 8 years ago

Pahlmeyer

Napa Valley Proprietary Red Blend 2012

In the immortal words of Hot Chocolate, "I believe in miracles, since you came along, you sexy thing." Pahlmeyer's 2012 Proprietary Blend is all that and more, delivering dense, hovering aromatics of smokey blueberry, sweet tobacco, sooty ash and vanilla bean. It's equally hedonistic in the mouth, a Bordeaux-style blend that is both glossy and luminous. Dense cream and blackberry notes build in intensity until at last, it reaches a finish that picks up trace elements of minerality and dried herbs. Sample — 8 years ago

Apparently with a high % of PV. Immortal stuff; after 46+ years it's still walking the high wire between fresh fruit and fresh herbs. — 9 years ago

Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Spätlese Riesling 1989

Morgan Harris
9.5

Diesel, juniper, concrete dust, lime salt, lemon curd. The sugar is completely resolved and harmonious. Quite racy and acid. Definitely where I like it now, great for another 5-10 years, but probably mostly immortal. — 10 years ago

Bodegas y Viñedos Vega Sicilia

Unico Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend 1970

Spectacular fresh bouquet of cherries and allspice. Whoa this is liquid velvet, insane balance. An amalgamation of raspberry , earth, cassis and the softest tannins. An endless finish of supreme complexity. The fountain of youth, immortal. — 8 years ago

1970 was a great vintage. The Lopez de Heredia Vina Tondonia Gran Reserva I had recently was similarly fresh.

Another 15+ year Riesling proving that the good ones are near immortal. Hardly seems to show age. Great mix of sugar/acid — 9 years ago

Joseph Swan Vineyards

Sonoma Zinfandel 1975

At first balsamic notes like an old Barolo, but gained color and complexity with air, evolving into leathery, mossy, tart cranberry aromas and amazing complexity. Still holding strong, with great acidity. Swan's zins are immortal! — 9 years ago

9.6

In the immortal words of Yoda! "Drink me you will!" My 1st Nerello Mascalese! The wine gods put this baby together! Just like Barolo the appearance is deceptively pale. Incredible perfume, complex, layered, fragrant, savoury. Delivering real personality on the palate. So much Yumminess. Wicked, edgy yet refined tannin! Vino that will make your heart race! — 10 years ago

No Girls Wines

La Paciencia Vineyard Syrah

Smokey, savory roasted game, with a touch of olives and lavender with a strong core of black fruit. But I think it's the salinity that really makes this wine sing. In the immortal words of @Dag Zapatero "Yum!" I love the No Girls lineup. I find them to be a bit more approachable earlier on than Cayuse. This is the 09 Vintage. — 8 years ago

Initially full of coconut, deep red colour.Keeps developing into hints of old rope and tar, Smoth tannins and tremendous length, almost immortal — 8 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1986

Like the woman of my dreams: round, generous, voluptuous, complex, beautiful and sexy as hell. It's Anita Ekberg in la Dolce Vita, it's Christina Hendricks in mad men. Well you got it. Acidity gives this monster of a wine a delicate touch, an immortal length that is just phenomenal! I have said several times that Yquem is in my opinion, the best wine estate of the planet. I rest my case with this bottle. It's is truly my dream woman — 9 years ago
