Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Open about an hour and it's not singing but it is humming at least. A tad hot, but incredible. Balanced yet fulsome. Two plus hours in and just soars. Embers, earth, dark fruit, spice and integrated oak. Definitely 98+. Wow. — 9 years ago

Vigne Regali (Banfi)

Rosa Regale Sparkling Brachetto d'Acqui

Quite sweet, but not syrupy. A great dessert pairing with berries, but still enough effervescence to cut through dense fatty chocolate or other rich desserts. Dessert in a glass for me! — 11 years ago

Calabretta

Vigne Vecchie Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2006

Fig, butterscotch, banana, cognac & alcohol dominate the nose. This wine is a monster. So intense and vibrant. Like it could not wait to be freed from the bottle. Nice tannins and acid. Flavors of biscuit, rhubarb & ripened light fruit. This wine makes you happy to love wine. Very fortunate to come across this bottle. 2006 vintage

Les Cornuelles Vieille Vigne Chinon Cabernet Franc

Big cab franc. Showing big fruit with enough herbaceousness to balance it out. May take a couple years to bloom but drinks great now — 9 years ago

Michel Delhommeau

Clos Armand Vieille Vigne Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Melon de Bourgogne 2000

Great bottle showing its age well. Preserved lemon, ripe melon, marshmallow, apple blossoms, hazelnut, damp earth, oyster shell, minerals, tea leaf. There's a caramelized honey element to the wine. Acidity is still fresh and vibrant. Great example of Muscadet with age. Similar aromas and flavors of aged chablis/BdB Champagne — 10 years ago

Romeo Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Bought this on a trip to Napa. Had not heard of the vineyard previous to our visit, but was impressed at our tasting. Really nice ripe round fruit, balanced body. Not inexpensive, but a worthy spurge — 10 years ago

Paitin di Pasquero-Elia

Sorì Paitin Vecchie Vigne Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2000

In a great place right now. Bitter chocolate, dark cherry, a little tarry. Best window is probably in next few years — 11 years ago

Larmandier-Bernier

Vieille Vigne de Cramant Grand Cru Champagne 2007

I still remember the very 1st Champagne visit I had 12yrs ago with Pierre, it's so great to come full circle. This is rich, but balanced, a great apple tarte tartin quality to it when opened, so showed development, but being VV it's understandable. After being open for an hour everything came alive, white florals, beautiful minerality. Outstanding wine. — 9 years ago

Domaine Fourrier

Vieille Vigne Chambolle-Musigny Pinot Noir 2010

Tasty, but too young. Still a bit disjointed and the oak stuck out. Not really knocking it, as I knew I shouldn't be touching a 2010 yet. Hope to try it again in a few years. That being said, I do think the gevrey VV is a step above. — 9 years ago

Vigne Rovettaz Vallée d'Aoste Petite Arvine 2015

Light yellow, acidic with a mild pepper finish. Good with fontina, toma, or a creamy goat cheese with pesto (especially the latter) on a warm summer day. — 10 years ago

Vigne Marina Coppi

Fausto Timorasso 2011

Very dense at first. Decanted. Highly concentrated, but lifting. A great nose of stone fruits, dried herbs, and salty minerality. Should age well. — 10 years ago
