Château Cos d'Estournel

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

An absolute massive Bordeaux that needs soooo much more time but you can see the quality here — 10 years ago

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1959

OMG--this old
#Latour is so massive that you could eat it with a fork!
One of the greatest vintages of the 20th century, and, even now, this wine has years of life ahead of it!
And to think that I used to work in a wine shop that had cases piled up ten high priced at $50 per bottle!

Penfolds

Grange Bin 95 Shiraz 1998

Massive is an under-statement. This wine was a Puppy. Many more years of enjoyment left in this wine, I think a minimum of 20 years. Top class Grange and worth the money! 94+ points. — 11 years ago

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2013

Massive and loaded with fruit. Boysenberry and roasted fig dominate the nose with a dark cherry and loamy palette. Huge, long, tannic finish. Lots of years on this one. Definitely opened it too early. — 10 years ago
