Some Wine

Château Léoville-Las Cases

Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend

Like always a true gentleman, somewhat lean but very sophisticated. Silky wine with fruit preserved. Very little signs of evolution. Very aristocratic but lacks some flesh. Still very enjoyable. — 7 years ago

Château Musar

Bekaa Valley Red Blend 2007

Some spices, black cherries, sun dried tomatoes & some hints of a spicy barbecue sauce. Showing signs of beginning to reach maturity. Spices and black cherries with some herbs, sun dried tomatoes. Smooth dry tannins and medium amounts of acid. Full bodied with a dry oaky finish. We'll balanced and quite delicious. — 10 years ago

La Rioja Alta

Gran Reserva 904 Rioja Tempranillo Graciano

Barnyard, mulch on nose, pretty funky, sour cherry, blackberry, raisin, some spice, good, long, grippy finish — 12 years ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

A jewel in a tough year. Wonderful nose. Fresh berries, cassis, cedar, and tobacco. My favorite of the night against some higher rated wines. — 8 years ago

Château Gruaud Larose

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1999

Prime drinking. Earth,leather give way to some nice fruit after an hour so. Still got some nice tannins too. — 10 years ago

9.8

Stunning at almost 30 years of age. Decanted for an hour or so, opened beautifully. Pipe tobacco, plum, dank pit (Moe the bartender), tons of anise, soft tannins with some grip, holding up incredibly well. I would have guessed mid to late 90's napa cab based on looks and taste... thanks @Matthew Nagy what a treat. — 10 years ago
