'S' Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut Chardonnay 1997

9.1

1997. From magnum. Frothy, creamy, plush texture with a dry, chalky mineral, citrus, and toasty character. #FancyWine — 8 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

9.5

2010. From my limited experience with these wines it seemed gentle for Mouton - which I liked, on a personal note. More acid, less power, mild tannins. Smoky, spice box, sour cherry, tobacco. I'd like to try it again in 7-10 years. #FancyWine — 8 years ago

Tenuta San Guido

Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2010

Alex Alan
9.0

2010. Soft texture, riper fruit, mostly plum. Acid really jumps on the finish and seemed a little out of place. Felt a little off-kilter. #FancyWine — 8 years ago

2010. Plum, spice box, mild, creamy texture, soft tannins. Seriously crafted...maybe a little too crafted. #FancyWine — 8 years ago
