Marchesi Antinori

Tignanello Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 1971

1st vintage if this wine, so a real treat to try. A little shrill and sharp at the front. Lovely fruit. Still some fresh notes but in a good place age-wise. Doesn't hang together as well as the wines beside it. — 9 years ago

It's the hubby's b'day today and I couldn't think of a better reason to bust out a great bottle of wine. We're headed to our fav local family owned Italian restaurant. Nothing fancy, this should spice the place up 😮🍷 — 9 years ago

Thanks! We had a great dinner. Sadly no one at the restaurant really knew about this wine (it's a really small neighborhood place). But what the heck, more for us! @Mike Rowe @Ron R

You know @Janet Ross, I have a fave pizza place in NY that I took a bottle of 07 Sass to. They knew exactly what it was. Even tho the place wasn't BYOB, they respected my gangster!!!

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 1964

Dom Perignon 1964, in magnum, shared today with Jacques Pepin on a Global Express 5000 to the Aspen Classic. I brought a Spanish porron (i.e., wine bong) and Jacques was game. Incredibly, the Champagne still had bubble, along with terrific hazelnut, brioche flavors. The landing was extra smooth and Jacques – In his cool broken English – said he thought it was because the flight attendant must have slipped him some of the DP. Fine by me. Best pre-1970's Champagne I've had.

Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 1987

29 years old and drank incredibly well. What a treat. The big fruits have softened but in their place is now a brooding torrent of notes which evolved from sip to sip. Quite a remarkable wine. — 10 years ago

Domaine Jamet

Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2010

Probably my first place of the night overall. Also has the most legs to go the distance. Put this one away for 5-10 years before trying again. Very balanced but built for true greatness. — 11 years ago

Butteaux Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2006

Really good. White flowers minerality. Very raveneau. A touch of lemon, lychee and lime with great stony minerality. A bit shorter on the finish than the valmur a but very in place. Excellent — 9 years ago

Insignia Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1987

Has held up quite nicely considering sir Parker's initial 86 rating. Great earthiness, black fruit, tobacco and spice and completely smooth and lacking any tannins whatsoever. Was go time 5 years ago but still held up quite nicely - Carl's place 06-02-16 — 9 years ago
