Play Date

Silver Oak

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Love it. Dry with pepper, cinnamon, long lingering on front back and sides of palate. Date night! — 10 years ago

Château Lafite Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1991

I was scared at first. Vintage isn't the best one, tough conditions, rain close to harvest date.
Then I popped it and suddenly That happened. Definitely, Lafite is another breed of wine. I must admit that this is a rather austere Lafite but fruit is there, topical Bordeaux nose, very "Old School". mint, pudding and confit fruit (not dry nor overripe, rather mature I must admit).
Give Bordeaux best properties some bottle age then you understand why all the buzz. Loved it!

2001 Kristen, 'twas a great wine. The current vintage was good too.

Henriot

Brut Souverain Champagne Blend

Nice creamy and medium to full-bodied.
No disgorgement date listed but (perhaps just due to my palate) I found this to be better than my last bottle of this cuvée.

What's not to like? Amazing richness, powerful tannins, juicy acidity and complete purity. Great balance and very hard to resist already, but will be very longlived. Also, perhaps their most elegant vintage to date. — 10 years ago

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

La Tâche Pinot Noir 2004

The most fantastic DRC to date! This is legendary, very, very gorgeous, fresh cut lilacs, pure pinot noir perfume, forest floor, acorn, rose essence, hibiscus flower...
Wow!

Marchesi Antinori

Tignanello Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2011

The crushed herbs, cigar smoke tickle the top palate. Savoury dark chocolate intermingled dark fruits play around but the tannins are big and slide across your tongue like a thick leather belt. Needs time. With fillet mignon and mushroom sauce. — 10 years ago
