Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1959

There are times when I am completely surprised by a wine. Low fill, destroyed capsule but the best bottle of Mouton that I have had pre 1982. This wine was singing. — 10 years ago

Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 1999

Nice fruit intermixed with cassis, licorice, roasted meats, leather, and truffles. And a little brett which seems like a typical Beaucastel. Opened up more later on. Should of decanted multiple times. Dinner at Zahav with Barb. The wine was excellent with Lamb Shack — 11 years ago

Rosso di Montalcino Sangiovese 2012

I've had this wine numerous times before, and it never disappoints. The 2012 is packed with sour cherry and typical Sangiovese mushroom/underbrush elements. High acidity, good persistence, always great. — 10 years ago

Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

Hermitage Syrah 1983

Light brickish red. Almost transparent. Lots of things going on in the nose... Menthol. Stone. Chalk. Red currants. Some cedar. In the mouth this is silky. Expanding as it lingers. Coats everything. Long finish. Have had this a few times in the past 3 years... this wine continues to be in the zone and shows no signs of slowing down. — 11 years ago
