Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 1989

Super elegant wine. It lost all the fat and extraction of the early life to reveal its complex personality. — 10 years ago

Heitz Cellar

Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

95+! This was a spectacular performance from this hallowed vineyard as well as one of Napa Valley’s great historic terroirs. An opaque purple color is followed by aromas of graphite, creme de cassis, flowers and background earth as well as spice. The old eucalyptus-filled aromatics of a young Martha’s Vineyard are nowhere to be found as the 2001 is dominated by fruit and earth. — 12 years ago

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 1976

This was a good find in the basement. Has lost some of it's sparkle in it's 38 years. But a great experience. — 11 years ago

Château Rayas

Réservé Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Blend 1988

An earth driven nose with overtones of garrigue. This wine was terroir driven vs fruit driven. Compared to the other vintages I found this wine benefited the least from air. — 10 years ago

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Insignia Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1988

1988 Insignia - great after all these years. This bottle survived especially well - the other 88s had lost their luster, but this one still has it together. — 10 years ago
