Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 1990

Medium gold. Superb balance. Delicate even mousse. Flavors of citrus peel. Stunning showing. Second bottle of two - first tasted two years ago. This is far superior. — 10 years ago

Domaine du Pegau

Cuvée Réservé Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

Kudos to the boys for all calling it CdP, GV even nailed it a Pegau blind. Bramble, tar and hint of garrigue. Rich, distinctive nose. Amazingly still coming together after 3 hr decant, the pieces all there: beef blood, earth, peppery spice, pipe tobacco. Big tannins on the precipice of melting down and perfectly melding it all together. Just a few years before this passes superb on its way to profound. — 10 years ago

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1995

I owned a case of this and consumed most of it way too early. The last couple of bottles were perfectly aged and this was a superb Bordeaux. — 10 years ago

Dominus Estate

Dominus Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2010

9.7

For a 100pt wine I thought it had a non appropriate vegetal character. Aside from that the tannins were really nice the fruit was lovely and the wine was superb yet that vegetal note bothered me. Perhaps it was CF but who knows. — 11 years ago
