Exotic spice, dried red fruits and a finish that carried on for what seemed like hours. Wonderful wine showing a bit past peak, but still a treat. — 9 years ago

A treat to enjoy this with my good friend and mentor Ehren Jordan. There's been no stronger source of inspiration than Lapierre, AG and EJ for me

Ehren Jordan same Wine Maker that collaborated with Jacobs creek and their Two Lands label? If so, he really had put together a nice meet and greet for that launch in Orlando earlier this year

Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 1987

29 years old and drank incredibly well. What a treat. The big fruits have softened but in their place is now a brooding torrent of notes which evolved from sip to sip. Quite a remarkable wine. — 9 years ago

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

Grands Échézeaux Pinot Noir 1988

Never thought I'd see one of these. Highly expressive nose. Seamlessly interwoven red and black fruits. Some secondary character. So much intensity and interest but with such effortlessness. What a treat. 98 for sure. Did I mention it's a 6L? — 10 years ago

Screaming Eagle

1993 Screaming Eagle Cab. Drank at Press w K, Iana, S, and AG. Such a treat and very interesting as Kplanned it as a comp with the 1991 Harlan. For the first hour or so, we all favored the SE. Super unctuous and round, like velvet in the mouth. Then the wines came to temp and the picture completely changed and we all grew to favor the Harlan. Interestingly, the SE got flabby and very, very sweet. A thought it was bc it lacked the tannins that the Harlan showed. Anyway, SE turned almoSt port-like, with a nose of dates, raisins, and prunes. Amazing and fun to see the change throughout the night. — 10 years ago

Out if magnum, quite the treat. Nose of slight eucalyptus and loamy, red fruits. On the palate, fine tannins and quite a bit if energy and tannins still. Showing well now and still fairly vibrant. Drinking really well today... — 11 years ago

Real depth and power in this wine. Less aromatic fireworks than the RSV but still very beautiful. Needs at least a couple if hours or air to get going. A real treat! — 11 years ago
