Say When Wine

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

La Tâche Pinot Noir 1992

This was the groups WOTN against some pretty stiff competition. 59 Leroy GE, 82 LMHB, 82 Pichon Lalande & 80 La Mouline.
This is a very underrated vintage for LaTache as it is still showing tight and firm when 1st opened but really starts opening up after 30 min of air. Very aromatic and complex with red fruits, Asian spice, dried rose petal, game bird displaying power with elegance and finesse. Always a treat to drink a fully mature LaTache that is just reaching its peak drinking window.

'S' Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut Chardonnay 1999

Elegance pure, very Ladylike, salty, straight ahead taste. I would say, drink it now. — 12 years ago

Marchesi Antinori

Tignanello Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2001

Needed decanting as it was hard as nails when first opened. Great balance of fruit and acidity with tannins quite pronounced. Beautiful with assorted pastas at Collichio & Sons — 11 years ago

In magnum and its krug. No need to say more. — 12 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1967

Getting on, expected a touch more for the vintage - so coveted when I got in the trade in the '70's. Still lovely and persistent as always. — 12 years ago

Three Valleys Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend 2011

Pleasant surprise. Great complexity, tons of flavor. Want to try again when I'm not in a big group. — 13 years ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1961

53 years in waiting for this group... What can I say. Started off much younger than the label would say.. Like the old grand dame of St Estephe.. Nice fruit, wonderful nose, and a pleasant finish to round out a great bottle of wine from a era gone by. Shared with friends like it should be. Looking forward to 2015 to do it all again. — 12 years ago

What can you say, classic Reims crisp and tart. This NV is as consistent as they come. — 12 years ago
