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. — 11 years ago

Château Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 1999

There isn't enough space in Delectable to fully express my thoughts about 1999 Haut-Brion. What can be said about this monumental first growth? Tasted over 90 minutes, it evolved slowly with cascading notes of black currant, blueberry, perfumy violets and forest floor. Fresh and pure on the palate, with silky tannins, superb balance and a lengthy, seductive finish interlaced with subtle minerality and flavors of cedar and spice. A truly great wine in every sense. about Haut-Brion. — 12 years ago

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. — 11 years ago
