86 HM - what else to say other than it's the wine that got me into wine; every time I taste it I remember why I got started in this business.. First tried at 16 years old at the Brown Palace Hotel in Denver with my Dad. Today, a couple decades later, got to enjoy it again from 5L surrounded by good friends and family. 10 is for all of it, not just the wine. Grateful to Jason and Sarah Heller for their generosity. #happyeaster — 9 years ago

As they always do, a singular & outstanding take on a difficult vintage. 2003 was hot & this wine is more powerful and robust than previous Tondonia. That said, 30 minutes in the decanter has this one open for business & delivering that distinct spicy fruit & structured textural expression. Will certainly cellar some, but this is good to go. — 9 years ago

Steak and claret night with four all-pro ladies of the wine business! I don't think the 2nd wine of Grand-Puy Lacoste makes it to the U.S. often... Too bad! This bottle had the classic Pauillac lead pencil cut for the rare "chatteberry" and some very good texture from the vintage. — 10 years ago

One of the mysteries of wine. Young (yes, young), fresh (yes, fresh) red fruit, balanced, well-integrated tannins (no surprise). Great floral aromatics that evolved as it warmed. This wine had no business being as hedonistically delicious as it was. — 10 years ago

Great wine very Burgundian in style. I love this winery really one of the few in Oregon who manage to come close to burgundy. Had no time to come up with detailed tasting notes as this was served at a business dinner. — 10 years ago

What a difference a day makes...initially barnyard funk, tight and unapproachable. Next day open for business with kirsch and dark cherries with a long finish. A baby that has a great future — 10 years ago
