Lucien Le Moine

Les Hauts Doix Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015

Medium weight, red fruit, disappears after an echexeaux of the same year and same producer in the same vintage. Excellent Chambolle, red fruit, quite heady. Great company for binge Netflix Fauda. — 4 years ago

Les hauts de Larrivet Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2009

Young but still approachable with a short decant. I decanted for 30 minutes.

Cherry, strawberry and leather on the palate.

Good now with potential to be a few points better.

Les Hauts de Lagarde

Bordeaux Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2014

Ridge Vineyards

Monte Bello Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2000

2000 Ridge Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon:
From Jay. Dark ruby red in color. A preponderance of black forest fruits on the nose mixed with cedar and some menthol and a touch of spice. Rich blackcurrant, black cherries and traces of vanilla on the palette. This is a solid effort from Ridge and although it does not have the makings of an epic wine it will certainly improve with time. Drink 2017 to 2030. 91/100

Well, I don't know how to change this, but this is CHENIN BLANC and has notable salty(?) taste. I would like to know where and how this saltiness comes from.

Les Hauts de Madon Cheverny Rouge Pinot Noir Gamay

Very, very nice Pinot noir / gamay blend. Great deep red fruit but not over ripe at all. Excellent earth and fine grained tannins with good acid keep it all together. Long finish. Just fun to drink. — 7 years ago

Cheverny FTW!

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

Straight out the bottle it showed remarkable freshness. Everything exactly how'd you'd like it - the nose immediately grabs you, with a herbal perfume intertwined with dark fruits. Mid palette offering a refreshing hint of graphite and a nice long 60 second finish. For a US Strip bottle this has been stored remarkably well. Excellent for the vintage. Love it. — 8 years ago

Rudius

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

Ron R
9.3

Nose is exotic, with sweet oak and ripe cherries. Palette is textured and multidimensional. Tannins still provide a nice upright structure, but are resolved. Finishes with a panoply of rich dark fruits, tobacco, maple syrup and nutmeg. I think 08 in Cali was nothing special, but the Rudius winemaker continues to pull off some splendid acrobatics.
If you have this in your cellar, don't leave it too much longer.

08 is better than it was given credit. I've had some 08's that surpass 07's.

Fully agree, David. And for the top producers like Lamborn, Rudius, Cade, etc, I don't sweat the poor vintages at all.

Didn't know Henri ever made any of the wines at J-Gilles. Was it just that vintage/wine or a couple?

This wine is compelling. Just when I'm ready to write it off as 'vintage' it tightens up & 'producer' takes the lead role. — 12 years ago
