Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1967

Perfect. Sweetness layer and integrated. The wine was out of bounds with great length and it's clear this can go another 30 years. Orange marmalade with penetrating silky mineralty this wine was perfect in any way we measure greatness. — 11 years ago

Krug

Brut Champagne Blend 1996

1996. Boom. Amazing. Full on. A wine. Way heavier than the Dom 1996. — 11 years ago

Château Musar

Bekaa Valley Red Blend 2001

Atractive nose of spices, candied cherries, marzipan and leather. A mushroomy background makes it way up along with an intriguing minerality. The length is medium -, a real shame for such a promising nose! — 12 years ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2004

Fabien Lainé
9.1

Mature and very pleasant, it has way time to get even better, complex, fruity light notes with tobacco, olives and oaky notes - keep on evolving a great way — 11 years ago

Caymus Vineyards

Special Selection Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

I was disappointed with my last Caymus Special Selection vintage, but this beauty brought me back to a bottle that won Wine Spectator's #1 Wine of the Year ... Twice!! Incredible fruit and balance. This can be cellared and enjoyed for years to come. Cheers!! — 11 years ago

Château Margaux

Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1980

A bit past it's prime, but delicious regardless. Leather and mild cigar on the nose along with subtle floral notes. Fruit flavours were very light blackberry and plum. Very warm earthy tones. Tannins were all but gone. A great way to celebrate a birthday! — 12 years ago
