Upside Down

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1970

Garnet with browning. Initially quite funky on the nose, but with some air opened nicely. Leather, black fruit and graphite. Medium+ finish. Good but on its way down. — 8 years ago

Château Sociando-Mallet

Silver Oak

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

This 2008 was cellared for almost five years after purchased in 2012. Consumed Nov 2015, the best way to describe this delight is that "it melts in your mouth". You do not even feel it as it goes down, the taste begins with its scents as soon as it hits your palate. Delightfully fruity with cherry, blackberry and jam. — 10 years ago

Dunn Vineyards

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Takes time to open up, could use more time laying down, but drinking nicely. Interestingly I think 2011 is already better now. — 8 years ago

Pio Cesare

Barolo Nebbiolo

Mmmm this was very good. Good fruit concentration with an aroma right down my alley - dry fruit, smokey, earthy, earl grey and a little nutmeg. Full body, high tannins and a long finish, of course, for a Nebb ;) — 9 years ago

Clos des Papes

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend

2010. Not a lot of notes from me in the long tasting. It was up against 07 Pegau which I could put down. Very enjoyable though. — 11 years ago

'S' Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut Chardonnay 1997

Not the complete package like the 96. The nose is a little shut down. Acid is intense and balance impeccable. This is no slouch. — 11 years ago
