1996 Colgin Herb Lamb CS. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Super interesting- big, rich notes of salty, meaty olives and briny olive juice. Had not had something quite like this before and none of us had ever drunk this vintage before either. — 9 years ago

Brown apple, honeyed and wax. Ready to drink; 1/2 bottle well stored & still great acidity but has started the electric s-l-i-d-e — 11 years ago
Tastes like garbage. I'm alive for the first time in years. A/S/L? — 8 years ago
2013 Peter Michael Ma Danseuse Pinot Noir. Lunch at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Can't go wrong with this wine. Lovely PN to enjoy with lunch on a hot summer day. — 9 years ago
1996 Screaming Eagle. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Superstar. We all remarked how unbelievably balanced this wine was, despite how big it remained at 20 years old. Finish lasted forever and was a truly memorable finish to the evening. — 9 years ago
Magnum 2008 Peter Michael Point Rouge Chardonnay. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Super. Loved especially at Susie and Lydia- the Chardonnay lovers. Not overly oaky- just rich and oaky enough to know it's a CA Chardonnay, but not so much that it's buttery and too rich in oakiness. Enjoyed. — 9 years ago

Terrific old-vines riesling by Gary Mills from the Garden Grully vineyard in Western Victoria (planted in the 1890's) | With a touch of rs (15 g/l) — 11 years ago
I needed to open something just to get through @David L 's posts of all his epic wines from last night. I hate you, I love you, brother! But back to this. Wow. Talk about a vice - this could become one for me - definitely is one I need to stock up on. Drinking so incredibly well. Berries all day long with some nice hints of vanilla. While nicely balanced this is definitely a fruit-driven wine. And there is nothing "petit" about this. Big, bold, badass. Loved it. — 8 years ago
Magnum 1996 Launois Pere et Fils Special Club Brut Blanc de Blancs champagne. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Crisp, light, nice density of bubbles, slightly creamy finish. Solid. — 9 years ago
1995 Domaine Leroy Clos de Vougeot Burgundy. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Such a treat. Pleasant sweetness and a really enjoyable lightness, despite its complexity and structure. Favorite. — 9 years ago
Magnum 2015 Domaine De L'Abbeye Clos Beylesse Rosè. Lunch at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. — 9 years ago

@Mike R @David L @Joe Lucca @Ron R @Paul T The WOTN was a beauty so generously given to me by my Bud Paul Treadway! Thanks Paul!!! The tasting notes between the Beau Vigne Estate and Morlet's Coeur de Vallee are eerily similar. The true differentiation between the 2 is Morlet's seem less integration at this time. My buddy Kirk @Kirk Alexander always says "The test of a great wine is when nothing jumps out at you". This particular bottle did just that. Every person this evening commented on the fact that it was such a superbly balanced wine. It was dialed back ever so slightly in all the right spots for it to dance on your palate effortlessly.
Thank you Paul for a stellar bottle!!
It was enjoyed by friends outdoors on this beautiful S FL cool night. What else could one ask for?
