Bit darker and less sweet than I was expecting, but I found myself reaching for glass after glass. Heavy and sits on the back roof of my palate. Initial aroma reminded me of wine served at Catholic mass — 7 years ago
Had a bit more bite to it than the standard Ruby or Tawny versions. Also had some subtle notes of dark chocolate. — 7 years ago
Really delicious and fruity sweet. — 8 years ago


This 59 reminds me why this vintage might be better than 61 albeit I'm drinking less top 61's because the book tells me to lay away still the very top producers. But 59 in Lafite, Margaux, now HB better than 61. Latour and Mouton spectacular in 59 and maybe 61 will outlive but only time will tell. This was simply myriad of the finest moments one can expect from a rare old bottle at its peak! — 9 years ago
Ken's bday! Amazing to have this 57 yr old Port. Fig jam, tabaco, date syurp. — 5 years ago
Drank slightly past its prime. Very leathery with fading tannin. Currant, and black cherry come to mind with a lingering moss aftertaste. Not their finest year. — 6 years ago

This one had some sweetness and was smooth and easy drinking. I would definitely buy this. — 7 years ago

This is CdP at its mature finest. Tannins are fully resolved yet the fruit is still vibrant though delicate. Don't wait to enjoy. — 9 years ago
Classy 2017 Anjou Blanc by Loire legend Thibaud Boudignon crafted from 100% Chenin grown in grey schist and volcanic soils in Anjou (his centuries old cellar and most of this vineyards are located in Savennières). Fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and aged in 300 and 750-liter barrels (30% new) for 15-18 months. Green apples, citrus, marked minerality, almost unnoticeable oak. Clean, precise, structured, marked minerality, great depth and length. This is Loire Valley Chenin at its finest — 5 years ago

With Becky at Rao’s in Vegas 2018 — 7 years ago
Finest mousse. Lightest peach, lemon pith, ripe ginkgo, lime, persimmon, orchid concentrate and tangerine-thyme aromatically. Creamy mousse plays chalky with tangerine and lemon oil across the tongue seductively. Lime zest, lychee, apricot and a pure single drop of ripe lemon juice connects the creamy finish in a lovely way. Really an amazing wine with the complex nuances of a lively tête-à-tête with a stunningly beautiful lady. #CadelBosco #bubbles #franciacorta #Brut #Chardonnay #sparklingwine — 7 years ago
Malty with just the right amount of sweetness. Thicker than I usually like, but not overpowering. Bavaria! — 8 years ago

2011 Vintge. One of the finest wines I've ever had. Lots of earthy flavors going on, including truffles, leather and tobacco. Even a tiny hint of licorice, but in a good way. Perfect balance of fruit and tannin as well. Just wish I could afford it more often. My special occasion wine. — 9 years ago

Wine Nerd herd virtual tasting of various vintages from 90s, 00s and 10s - mine was the 2013 - 88% CS, 8% PV, 3% merlot and 1% CF from various vineyards in the valley floor region - four hour decant - this is less fruit than you would expect but certainly an amazing wine - Napa finest at a modernist style Bordeaux blend - nose was rich with tobacco leather cocoa and forest floor - heavy to medium body yet the wine was soft because the fruit was muffled - mid palette with black blue and red fruits - orange peel cinnamon and sweet silky tannins integrated nicely - this could easily go 30 more years but not sure it will get better so if willing to decant and maybe even double decant for an afternoon this wine is ready for being paired with a cowboy bone in rib eye steak and will not let you down - truly an enjoyable experience as was all vintages tasted last night - HUGE SMILES — 5 years ago
