My love for Krug knows no bounds. Bready, yeasty notes jump out of the glass towards you but quickly soften into those of honey butter. Ginger and spice notes. Lees driven but well integrated with medium high acid. This champagne is so complex that it's almost impossible to truly detect where one note of flavor ends and the other begins. — 11 years ago

Young Bonneau du Martray; just linear, oak though a big presence is layered, nose awfully restrained and fruit basically hidden until it evolves some more; try in a decade maybe two; so slight but so tight; acid tucked behind the wood too; an evolution to happen; great Corton; an even better site when I drove past this vineyard in May this year; #drinkFrance #drinkburgundy #côtedor #cortoncharlemagne #corton #bonneaudumartray #grandcru #domaine #2009 #uncorkedandcultivated #wineandfoodtours #France2016 — 11 years ago

Great wine! Took about 45 min to open up but when it did... Wow! So amazed with still having black fruit flavors behind the cigar and moroccan leather! — 12 years ago

I wasn't sure what to expect from this 15+year old wine, but either this vintage or aging made it to my liking. It was a cab that had softened the typical in your face experience from younger cabs. A good example of what might happen to me when I age :). The qualities of oak and fruit, but never too distinct to overwhelm the palate with any one flavor. — 11 years ago

The essence of ripe cherries and strawberries invade every nook and cranny of this wine. Extremely silky and smooth in the mouth which produces a finish that reminded me of the horizon when you are looking out from the deck of a boat, just does not quit. — 11 years ago

An incredible complex layered Bordeaux blend, is better now than when I first experience it out of barrel. @winewatch @cheapwinefinder #WINE @Sassodoro @sociallybrenda @larrywyn — 11 years ago

Where to start... actually, can't write. Drinking.
Edit: okay, this is just sick. Tar, layered minerals, and such beautiful fruit. It has barolo like elements, but is distinctly Howell Mountain. I am in love. — 11 years ago

Amazing what you find when you reorganize your wine storage. Was this the year it won Best SB from WS? 14.1 ABV! Loved this, not the overly sweet and fruity SB I seem to come across more often. But, then, it is Merry Edwards....... — 11 years ago

Because when poolside on a rooftop over a beach in Mexico, just go for the familiar classic and be that guy. — 11 years ago

Pleasant surprise. Great complexity, tons of flavor. Want to try again when I'm not in a big group. — 13 years ago
