One of many wines tasted this week — 12 years ago
Out of the two Auberts from 2012 I tasted today, this one seemed to be a little 'funkier.' Definitely served colder than the Larry Hyde, this wine seemed to be in a weird place to me. The nose showed some melon characteristics, but also had a hay barn kind of nose (sans nitrogen). Definitely more raucous than the Larry Hyde even on the entry. This note carried to the entry, but then the silky nature of this one took over. The middle of this wine was purly honeydew, melon, mango. Finish was pretty full, good acidity, still showing the power of youth here. 93 for sure, as was the Larry Hyde for different reasons altogether. I cannot say that one of these beat the other, as they were really good in their own rights. — 9 years ago

This 03 Pinot is drinking flawlessly. — 13 years ago
Still a rich styled pinot, but the lighter vintage and years in the bottle really help this stay balanced. Packed with rich dark fruit and cola notes finishing with a bit of spice. Nice now and will hold for another 3-4 years. — 9 years ago
For centuries now, the luscious, bright, all-encompassing delight of Champagne has been used to toast happy occasions. Often times a decent bubbly does the trick, but other times, something grander deserves to be poured.
Dom Pérignon (named after the monk who put Champagne on the map), a 2000 vintage. It's the kind of Champs one drinks upon making the decision that wine is not just a hobby, not just a passion, but a career. — 10 years ago
