Spicy dry restaurant $50 Favorite wine of the night. — 9 years ago
Incredible, but I must say that this needs more time!
On the nose, blueberries, blackberries, and the textbook Cos Indian spice signature.
Palette is toasty, with ripe tannins. Beautiful weight and sensuality, with pristine acidity. It's immature, and therefore needs a lot of breathing space, if you pop the cork now. A super effort, with an excellent trajectory. — 9 years ago


Tight as a drum but got better as the night wore on. Definitely didn't show the ripeness of 2006. Would have guessed 2001 if asked. But still textbook Roumier. — 10 years ago

Tasted blind. The nose textbook Burgundy, forest floor, red fruit, and black tea. The palate duplicated the nose with just the perfect amount of sweetness and spice. The acidity was like a lasso holding the structure tight and silky. My guess an 8 to 10-year-old premier cru, back to class for me. A privilege to drink.

Epic! Right in the sweet spot! absolute textbook G.C.C. that is perfect proof the 1855 is a joke! I sincerely hope it never gains the Unesco status some privileged Bordelais estates are hoping for, if this is considered 'fifth league'. Champagne & Burgundy bravo however! Truly deserving of their hard-fought Unesco world heritage status. — 10 years ago
Textbook RRV Pinot. Needs a few more months in the bottle. Cherry overtones backed up with a 'lil spice and clove. I drink this wine commando. — 11 years ago

Got 5 of these super cheap from Last Bottle about a year ago. I have always loved Alsace Gewurz. It’s the wine I turn to when I want something just for me and fuck everyone else. This one is textbook, with musky pear and lychee nut aromas. Off-dry with decent acids. Bit of minerality in mid palate. Great value. — 8 years ago

Tannat - possibly the only palindrome grape variety - here in all it's unctuous, aubergine glory. Dark, stormy and passionate like a textbook Latin lover, it will mark you (and your couch if you're not careful). — 11 years ago

Textbook. Raspberry, saddle leather. A sappy quality that suggests both Cru Bojo and N. Rhône. Dark and ripe. First-rate. #mercurey #pinotnoir #cotechalonnaise — 8 years ago
