Light with a tart ending. On it — 8 years ago
Jack and Jamie Davies revived the historic vineyards and cellars in 1965, with a mission to produce California's first world-class sparkling wines. Today, led by their son Hugh, continues with this commitment to quality. A 100% Chardonnay, straw yellow with aromas of stone and citrus fruits, with floral scents. A terrific sparkler shows crisp green apple, orange and grapefruit zest. A medium-bodied, wine with a great mousse, tiny bubbles and nice length on the finish ending with some crisp mineral notes. — 8 years ago
Super-weird bottle. Mid-shoulder, crumbly cork, and the colour of freshly pressed strawberry juice - extremely pale as slightly cloudy! The immediate scent was quite off-putting but after 30 minutes it stormed back! Scents of autumn mulch, burning vine roots, sour cherries, and raspberry compote. A weird sourness and heady acidity on the front of the palette but it still keeps together well. Clearly badly kept but still really interesting to drink! A true testament to The quality of Mouton under the stewardship of the late Baron. I wonder if this is what some of the better kept bottles might be like in 100 years' time!? — 9 years ago
This is as good as Bordeaux gets. Pure perfection in a glass and got even better with an hour+ in the decanter. Wonderful earthy notes, Forrest floor, leather, spice, faint menthol and bell pepper, floral, cigar and some dark fruits finished with the kiss of God and a drop of angel tears. One of the few wines I've ever had that I would rate 100 and an epic experience. — 9 years ago
100% Sangiovese, wet leaves, red sour cherries, went great with a Margarita Pizza — 11 years ago
It is only through benevolent souls and their ability to share something so fine and rare that I would be able to taste and review an '89 Chateau Morgaux.
This vintage was awarded 100 points by wine spectator. Unbelievable concentration and complexity which only under the best conditions can deliver so smooth and long lasting an impression. This is a wine I will always remember. — 8 years ago
Megan's wine of the night.
Absolutely superb. Definitely old world versus New World. Layers upon layers of deep and rich spice, prune and perhaps some type of herb that I could not place my finger on. you felt a kicking in on the back palate. It had so much going on that you relished every sip. This has another 20 years in front of it easily. It was just a baby tonight. No Decant!!!! Just popped and poured and it was sublime!. Thank goodness I have one left!!!!! Megan is developing an incredible Palate! She knew exactly what she did and did not like this evening. This immediately struck a chord and placed first. In all honesty, we are splitting hairs when it comes to the wines that we poured this evening. This was in my top three as well. Bravo Megan!!! This 100 point beauty definitely lived up to its hype. — 8 years ago
2004 vintage. From Jay. 2004 Bartolo Mascarello - Brief Note from Galloni Historical Retrospective Held in London April 26, 2016. Dark ruby colour. Fresh violets on the nose together with cherries. A little tobacco wrapper. Cracked cloves. Nice fruit on the pallet and very silky. This is both elegant and old school in all the right ways. 92+/100. Drink 2017 to 2028+ — 9 years ago

17.5/20 (94/100)
Сладко-цветочный, яркий, молодой. Ягодный леденец, малина, спелая клубника, смородина, яркий ягодный аромат, немного шоколада, какао, болгарский перец на гриле. Ярко, взрывно но не тяжело и очень свежее. Большой потенциал.

22 March 2017. Rouge Tomate, New York, NY. — 8 years ago
18.5/20 (96/100) Интенсивный рубиновый цвет, почти непрозрачный, чуть светлее, чем 2003. Немного сдержанный аромат: спелые черные ягоды (черная смородина, ежевика), какао, черный шоколад. Сухое с относительно высокой кислотностью. Гладкие, но довольно интенсивные танины. Во вкусе спелые черные ягоды и шоколад. Сдержанное, элегантное, многоплановое.
