Full-bodied, flamboyant, and opulent, with low acidity and sweet tannin, it still seems young at age 19. Expansive and full, wine lovers will argue for decades to come which is better, the sensational 1990 or the equally terrific 1989.”(96pts) 1 bottle per lot $350-500 Château Cheval Blanc - Vintage 1975 St. Emilion bn, bsl, gsl, sdc (Wines Located in New York) “There were more wheat, licorice and spinal tap aromas in this 1975 Cheval Blanc.

Its mix of herbs were intriguing, and it finished cleanly and freshly.”(93pts JK) 1 bottle per lot $320-500 Château Cheval Blanc - Vintage 1979 St. Emilion lbsl (Wines Located in New York) “Similar to the 85 with its upfront bell pepper and touches of milk, earth and beef. There was also a pinch of szechuan; 79 seemed like the 85 s little brother, possessing less overall of everything. It got greener in the glass and revealed wintergreen flavors. It lacked length, but was still very good.

It also had luscious fruit, a plum, cassis and black olive trifecta. There were secondary brick, wheat and nut aromas. Its fruit was meltingly sweet, and red mixed in with purple and a splash of black. It was quite explosive on the finish with its tannins and acidity, yet it was still balanced with a wealth of a fruit rainbow. Green olive flavors graced its finish. It was just flat-out delicious wine, still sturdy, long and fine. Some food toned down the (positive) aggressive nature of its t n a qualities, but its acidity stayed long and scintillating.”(96pts JK) 1 bottle per lot $220-300 Château La Mission Haut Brion - Vintage 1985 Graves lbsl, tl (Wines Located in New York) “In a recent blind tasting it came out first among all the 1985 first-growths. It was the densest, richest, and most backward of the eight first-growths, yet it was thrown in as the ringer. The color is an impressive opaque dark ruby/purple, and the nose is just beginning to reveal the classic Graves aromas of melted road tar, tobacco leaves, and stones. In the mouth, this full-bodied wine reveals more concentration than I remember from cask or immediately after bottling.

An enormously concentrated, massive Mouton-Rothschild, comparable in quality, but not style, to the 1982, 1959, and 1945, this impeccably made wine is still in its infancy I suspect the 1986 Mouton-Rothschild requires a minimum of 15-20 more years of cellaring; it has the potential to last for 50-100 years!…”(100pts) 1 bottle per lot $650-850 Gevrey Chambertin - Vintage 1999 Premier Cru, C.

It also had luscious fruit, a plum, cassis and black olive trifecta. There were secondary brick, wheat and nut aromas. Its fruit was meltingly sweet, and red mixed in with purple and a splash of black. It was quite explosive on the finish with its tannins and acidity, yet it was still balanced with a wealth of a fruit rainbow. Green olive flavors graced its finish. It was just flat-out delicious wine, still sturdy, long and fine. Some food toned down the (positive) aggressive nature of its t n a qualities, but its acidity stayed long and scintillating.”(96pts JK) 7 bottles per lot $1600-2400 449 Château L'Evangile - Vintage 1994 Pomerol (Wines Located in New York) “…is an awesome effort that may rival, perhaps eclipse the 1990. The only other L'Evangile it appears to resemble is the 1975 - a great wine in an irregular vintage. The 1994 displays a saturated purple color, and a huge nose of violets, cassis, licorice, and minerals, with no evidence of new oak. Massive on the palate, with extraordinary concentration, high tannin, low acidity, and a dazzlingly long finish that lasts for nearly a minute, this is a wine of outstanding richness and impressive structure.”(92pts) 4 bottles per lot $300-400 450 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 1990 Riserva, Altesino (Wines Located in New York) “… exhibits a broodingly deep garnet/plum color, sweet aromas of tobacco, chocolate, herbs, and dried cherries, full body, outstanding depth, and an impressive, yet tannic finish.”(91pts) 2 bottles per lot $200-280 451 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 1997 Poggio Alle Mura, Castello Banfi (Wines Located in New York) “This balanced red is built for aging.

It has nice vim, but I wouldn t call it vigor. There was also some exotic chestnut on a secondary bed of cassis. Pencil was there, along with good spice. Long and hearty, the 88 Lafite had good intensity without being intense.

However, with the exception of Domaine Leroy, you cannot find a Richebourg or Musigny with the richness and complexity possessed by this awesome wine. The saturated dark purple color is followed by a wine that is surprisingly lighter in the mouth than its great flavor intensity and rich extraction would suggest. It is a winemaking tour de force in that Guigal has been able to cram phenomenal levels of fruit, complexity, and richness into this velvety-textured wine without causing it to taste heavy.”(99pts) 1 bottle per lot $550-750 _____________________________ Eisele Vineyard (Wines Located in New York) “…boasts explosive aromas of incense, Crème de cassis, minerals, and flowers.

It was beyond licorice according to Dan, and Australian John admired its cherry liqueur. The palate was rocky without the horror but with the picture show, not its usual feminine self, Ray observed.

While it still possesses some firmness, and performs like a late adolescent in terms of its evolution, it boasts gorgeous aromas of cedar, tobacco leaf, cassis, and lead pencil shavings. The explosive aromas are followed by a fleshy, full-bodied wine that should hit its peak in 5-8 years, and last for 25-30 more.”(96pts) 1 bottle per lot $600-800 972 Château d'Yquem - Vintage 2001 Sauternes (Wines Located in New York) “…with airing, it offers up honeyed tropical fruit, orange marmalade, pineapple, sweet creme brulee, and buttered nut-like scents.

A gorgeously sweet entry displays flavors of caramel, roasted coffee, jammy red and black fruits, coconut, and smoke. It is fat and full-bodied, with considerable tannin, structure, and muscle in the finish. Flamboyantly rich and precocious early in life, it is going through an awkward stage where the tannin is present, but it is also sexy, juicy, and formidably-structured. When the 1982 Cheval Blanc's component parts become totally in sync, it will be capable of meriting a three-digit rating.”(99pts) 1 bottle per lot $700-900 1008 Château Cos d'Estournel - Vintage 1982 St. Estephe 1bn, 1sdc, 1spc (Wines Located in New York) “Cos d Estournel s 1982 exhibits a dark ruby/purple color with light pink at the rim.
