"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. Pierre admired the 79, citing that
acidity is the backbone of wine..."(90pts JK)

(Wines Located in New York)
"The 2000 Châteauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes (15%
alcohol) emerges from a cold terroir in the northern
sector of the appellation. The blend is generally 85%
Grenache and equal parts Syrah and Mourvedre. Its
opaque purple color is followed by a sumptuous perfume
of creme de cassis, kirsch liqueur, licorice, plums,
minerals, and smoke. Mammoth in the mouth, but
surprisingly structured and tannic for a 2000, it is more
evolved than its 2001 counterpart. This profound
Châteauneuf should evolve slowly and age magnificently
for two decades."(96pts)

Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007
Château Rayas
2nl (Wines Located in New York)
"...is a relatively dark ruby/purple-tinged wine, more
intensely colored than most Rayas Châteauneufs tend to
be, since they are made from 100% Grenache and color
has never been one of their hallmarks. The
extraordinarily youthful and still burgeoning aromatics
of black raspberries, black cherries, truffles and licorice
lead to a full-bodied, powerful Rayas with sweet tannin,
adequate acidity, and an ethereal richness and
unctuosity that delicately offers a sensual
texture."(98pts)

Pignan, Château Rayas
1ltl, 1ll (Wines Located in New York)
"...100% Grenache from sandy soils. This offering, aged
totally in old foudres and demi-muids, includes some of
the declassified Rayas lots, and the 2007 is the finest
Pignan since the 1990. A medium ruby color is followed
by explosive aromas of sweet kirsch, lavender, licorice,
and earth. The wine hits the palate with a blast of fruit
and glycerin, full body, and an ethereal lightness and
elegance that are remarkable for a wine of such intense
fruit."(93pts)

wine and as profound as most of the single vineyard
Côte-R ties are in some other vintages. The wine has a
deep ruby/purple color and an extraordinary nose of
smoky bacon fat and roasted meats, tapenade, black
raspberry, cherry, and cassis. The intense aromatics are
followed by equally thick, unctuous flavors with huge
body, a voluptuous texture, and yet wonderful freshness,

apricots are some of the many aromas and flavors found
in this rich, enveloping Champagne. A wine of texture
and depth, the 1998 impresses for its vinous personality
and terrific balance. Lively veins of underlying acidity
suggest the 1998 will drink well for many years to follow.
This is one of the best bottles of the 1998 I have ever

"The 2004 Brut Cristal has put on quite a bit of weight

structured Cristal layered with considerable fruit.
Chardonnay seems to play the leading role in 2004, at
least today. Cristal is often accessible young, but that is
far from the case here. This is a serious, painfully young
Cristal that will require considerable patience. Readers
who are willing to spend some time with the wine today
will find a super-impressive, complete Cristal."(97pts)

it is not. There is plenty of energy and punch to the rich,
concentrated and utterly delicious flavors that are at
once generous but beautifully delineated before
culminating in a balanced, explosive and gorgeously

tasting it from a large tank as it was still fermenting and
it was already impressive! It is a full-bodied, powerful
wine that must tip the scales at close to 15.5% natural
alcohol. I don't think this big, chewy, voluptuously
textured wine will ever close down. Dark plum/garnet
with the classic Provencal display of garrigue, lavender,
pepper, kirsch and Asian plum sauce, this full-throttle
wine has splendid concentration, silky tannins, and a

made in a different style, is as great as the 2003, and such
legends as 1990 and 1978. Fashioned from a minuscule
21 hectoliters per hectare, and tipping the scales at
15.2% natural alcohol, the 2006 boasts a dense
ruby/purple color to the rim, in addition to an
extraordinary bouquet of melted licorice, spring flowers,

recent bottling, but wow, what potential complexity,
mind-boggling richness, and compelling flavor profile
are apparent. It is a sublime expression of the art of
winemaking as evidenced by its dense purple color and
big, sweet kiss of kirsch, framboise, blackberries,
licorice, roasted herbs, and smoked meat. It hits the

Moreover, its perfume of blueberry liqueur, black
raspberries, licorice, roasted meat juices, and lavender

mouth-coating, the layers of complex flavors nearly hide
enough tannin to support 8-10 years of additional
cellaring. The oak, tannin, and acidity are beautifully
integrated and the lengthy finish lasts for well over a
minute. Purchasers no doubt will want to try a bottle
immediately but this towering effort will not reach its

The 2007 Châteauneuf du Pape Chante Le Merle Vieilles
Vignes comes from extremely old vines (90-100 years of
age), includes 100% whole clusters, and was aged in
both neutral foudres and demi-muids. Exhibiting the
deepest color as well as the greatest concentration of this
quartet, it appears to be the finest example of this cuvée
since the prodigious 1990. Terrific notes of licorice,
incense, seaweed wrappers, black raspberries,
blackberries, and cherries are present in the incredibly
complex aromatic display. Deep and full-bodied with lots
of roasted herb and meat juice-like characteristics, this
big, extravagantly rich, full-bodied wine possesses silky
tannins as well as a finish that lasts nearly 50

15.2% natural alcohol, the 2006 boasts a dense
ruby/purple color to the rim, in addition to an
extraordinary bouquet of melted licorice, spring flowers,

recent bottling, but wow, what potential complexity,
mind-boggling richness, and compelling flavor profile
are apparent. It is a sublime expression of the art of
winemaking as evidenced by its dense purple color and
big, sweet kiss of kirsch, framboise, blackberries,
licorice, roasted herbs, and smoked meat. It hits the

Cannubi, P. Scavino
(Wines Located in New York)
"A profound wine, the 1997 Barolo Cannubi boasts a
dense ruby color with purple nuances, as well as an
explosive nose of cedar, saddle leather, soy, and copious
quantities of jammy black fruits. In the mouth, it is huge,
chewy, and unctuously-textured, with unreal levels of
glycerin and fruit. Compared to the wine's blockbuster
richness, the tannin in the finish seems
incidental."(95pts)

The Factor
(Wines Located in New York)
"The 2005 The Factor is 100% Shiraz sourced from dry
grown vines from six sub-regions of Barossa. It spent 24
months in 30% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored,
it delivers an expressive bouquet of pepper, smoke,
espresso roast, blackberry, blueberry, and licorice.
Full-bodied and voluptuous on the palate, nuances of
saddle leather and mineral emerge to complement the
layers of spicy blue and black fruits. The wine is
beautifully integrated with enough well-concealed tannin
to keep this wine evolving for decades. The pure finish
lingers for 60+ seconds to complete the experience of a
totally hedonistic turn-on."(97pts)

"...stands out as one of the all-time great wines made by
Laurence Feraud and her father, Paul. I remember first
tasting it from a large tank as it was still fermenting and
it was already impressive! It is a full-bodied, powerful
wine that must tip the scales at close to 15.5% natural
alcohol. I don't think this big, chewy, voluptuously
textured wine will ever close down. Dark plum/garnet
with the classic Provencal display of garrigue, lavender,
pepper, kirsch and Asian plum sauce, this full-throttle
wine has splendid concentration, silky tannins, and a
very voluptuous texture."(98pts)

Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1998
cuvée Laurence, Domaine du Pegau
(Wines Located in New York)
"The 1998 Châteauneuf-du-Pape cuvée Laurence, the
finest example of this offering I have yet tasted (even
better than the 1989, 1990, and 1995), spent four years in
small barrels prior to being bottled unfiltered. A
spectacular effort, it is a monument to great
Châteauneuf-du-Pape. A dense plum/purple color is
followed by aromas of sweet black fruits intermixed with
tobacco, cedar, pepper, and fruitcake. Powerful, rich,
and concentrated, with a finish that lasts for nearly a
minute, this wine is performing far better than when I
Dense purple to the rim, the wine displays superb
concentration, with notes of creosote, blackberry, coffee,

cuvée de Mon Aieul, P. Usseglio
2lscl (Wines Located in New York)
"It represents an awesome naked/virginal expression of
Grenache from three vineyard parcels planted in sand,
clay, and limestone soils. After tasting this wine on five
separate occasions, I can state with certainty, it has the
most saturated color of any Mon Aieul produced to date.
Moreover, its perfume of blueberry liqueur, black
raspberries, licorice, roasted meat juices, and lavender
is incredible. Full-bodied power, a multilayered
mouthfeel,
tremendous
purity,
and
awesome
concentration put this wine in a class by itself."(100pts)

Elderton Command Shiraz - Vintage 1996
(Wines Located in New York)
"Elderton's Command Shiraz tends to be controversial
because of its lavish (some would say excessive) use of
American and French oak, in which this
super-concentrated blockbuster spends nearly two years.
The 1996 exhibits a dark ruby color with purple nuances.
Spicy, oaky, and toasty with sweet, nearly overripe
blackberry fruit, the hallmarks of this fleshy, low acid,
voluptuously-textured Shiraz are exuberance, power,
wood, and gobs of fruit."(93pts)

he crop-thinned by at least 50%, is a more backward,
tannic, brooding wine at present. An inky/purple color
and lots of baking spice, espresso, black and blue fruits,
and hints of graphite and toast emerge from this wine as

tannins are sweet and well-integrated in this big,

"The 2003 Reserve Claret is a blend of 67% Merlot and
33% Cabernet Sauvignon that achieved 14.4% alcohol.
An exquisite candidate for wine of the vintage, it comes
from a vineyard high on the summit of Spring Mountain.
Eighty-three percent of the fruit comes from Sonoma and
the rest from Napa County as the vineyard sits astride the
county lines. Its dark plum/garnet color reveals a slight
lightening at the edge. A beautiful nose of cedarwood,
forest floor, red and black currants, kirsch and plum is
followed by a full-bodied wine with great freshness, a
rich, textured mouthfeel and sensational concentration
with no heaviness. This is an uplifting, quintessential
mountain Cabernet Sauvignon that outperforms the

depth, purity and richness, it is a blend of 82% Sonoma

super-concentrated, yet classic in proportions. Lavish
notes of roasted espresso, melted chocolate, creme de
cassis, toasty new oak, and Asian spices jump from the

2000. It is enormously concentrated and pure, with low
acidity and exquisite balance. Remarkably, in spite of its

wine has smoky, earthy notes intermixed with graphite,
camphor, damp earth, jammy cassis, cedar, and a hint of
mushroom. Enormous, even monstrous in the mouth, with
tremendous extraction, broodingly backward, dense

produced since the compelling 1990 and 1989. This
gigantically sized, tannic, backward effort boasts a
saturated inky purple color followed by a huge nose of

vanilla, hickory smoke, and minerals. Extremely
full-bodied, powerful, dense, and multi-layered, this

"Exhibiting an admirable mid-palate, stuffing, and

one of the more forward, seductive Moutons produced
over the last two decades. As the wine sat in the glass,
notes of new saddle leather, coconut, and smoke
emerged. This should be an uncommonly precocious,
delicious Mouton-Rothschild upon release, yet it will last
for two decades."(93pts)

Pavie Decesse ever produced and a modern-day

783 Pride Mountain Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage 2008

"The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a big,
powerful wine loaded with fruit. The tannins are equally
imposing. Today the wine comes across as painfully
young, but the Reserve has a track record of aging
beautifully in bottle, so it will be interesting to see where
the 2008 goes over the coming years. Sweet mint, new
leather and licorice are some of the nuances that add
complexity on the focused, articulate finish. Anticipated
maturity: 2018-2028. "(92pts)

blackberries, cassis and a hint of vanillin in the
background. An opulent, full-bodied red with great
depth, purity and richness, it is a blend of 82% Sonoma

"The Merlot-based 2009 Claret Reserve is gorgeous.
Juicy dark cherries, tobacco, smoke and cloves jump out
of the glass. The Merlot gives the wine much of its
suppleness, while the Cabernet adds the structure and
pure mountain tannin. Even with all of its richness, the
2009 remains light on its feet for such a big wine. The
2009 boasts striking balance and tons of harmony. The
blend is two-thirds Merlot and one-third Cabernet
Sauvignon. Naturally, the Claret doesn't have the
personality of the estate's variety wines, but it is
compelling just the same. Anticipated maturity:
2017-2029."(94+pts)

new French oak, boasts a stunning perfume of lead pencil
shavings, charcoal, incense, blackberries, cassis and
forest floor aromas. This full-bodied, concentrated,
multidimensional red fills the mouth and coats the palate,

since 1978, and maybe since 1961. I have been tasting
Chave's Hermitage since the great 1978 vintage, and the
black-colored 1990 is unquestionably the most massive
and concentrated wine he has yet produced. Perhaps the
real difference between it and the splendid 1989 is that
the 1990 exhibits a more roasted character to its nose, as
well as a bit more tannin and concentration in the mouth.
Except for that, they are both mind-boggling,
monumental bottles of red Hermitage."(98pts)

(Wines Located in New York)
"Subtle and racy, with lemon rind, vanilla cream and
dried pineapple. Very spicy and intense. Full-bodied,
with great length and flavor. Electrified yet refined, with
medium sweetness and a wonderful finish. I love the class
of this, and the length. Has afterburners."(98pts WS)

"Allow me to cut through everything else and bluntly
state that the '05 Clos des Corton Faiveley is quite simply
the best young example of this wine that I have ever had
the privilege of evaluating. A richly and densely fruited
nose that is at once earthy and quite animale along with
breathtaking complexity complements to perfection the
big, rich and sleekly muscled flavors that are very firmly
structured but again, not at all aggressive and the sheer
depth of material on the palate-drenching finish is
nothing short of phenomenal."(94-96pts BH)

Les Combettes, Sauzet
(Wines Located in New York)
(also from a full 1 ha parcel of 50+ year old vines that
saw 40% new wood) Aromas that are noticeably riper
than any of the preceding wines carry notes of white
flowers, ripe peach, apricot and a hint of the exotic such
as mango and banana lead to concentrated, dramatically
powerful and muscular flavors of knockout length if not
quite the same degree of complexity as the best of these
1ers. Normally, the Sauzet Combettes is so good that it
rivals the Bienvenues but I find it just a hair in back of the
Champs Canet and Folati res. Still, this is awfully good

to matching the 1989's extraordinary concentration and

"Shame on me! I vastly under-rated this estate's 2000
Corton-Charlemagne in my barrel assessment a year ago
(originally scored 88-90). The finest wine I've ever tasted
from this famed domaine, it reveals a rich nose of ripe
pears, buttered hazelnuts, and minerals. Medium-bodied,
lush, intense, and satin-textured, it has exceptional
balance, refinement, and a stupendously long finish.
While it is not the most powerful Corton-Charlemagne, it
has superb focus, detail, and seamlessness. Toast, spices,
pears, and ripe apples can be found throughout its
complex character. If this wine continues to improve in
the bottle as it did in the final months of elevage, it will be

Chocolatey cassis notes intermixed with incense,
licorice, and a hint of black olive are present in this wine.
When it hits the palate, it comes across as very
Pomerol-like, with lushness, full body, and opulence. The

full, pure, dense, and long."(95pts)

definition/delineation to this large-scaled Shiraz. It was
aged in 100% new American oak for 13 months. A tour

Chocolatey cassis notes intermixed with incense,

When it hits the palate, it comes across as very
Pomerol-like, with lushness, full body, and opulence. The

Flowery, peppery, blackberry and bacon aromas

The Factor
(Wines Located in New York)
"The 2005 The Factor is 100% Shiraz sourced from dry
grown vines from six sub-regions of Barossa. It spent 24
months in 30% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored,
it delivers an expressive bouquet of pepper, smoke,
espresso roast, blackberry, blueberry, and licorice.
Full-bodied and voluptuous on the palate, nuances of
saddle leather and mineral emerge to complement the
layers of spicy blue and black fruits. The wine is
beautifully integrated with enough well-concealed tannin
to keep this wine evolving for decades. The pure finish
lingers for 60+ seconds to complete the experience of a
totally hedonistic turn-on."(97pts)

it is a kinky, but fabulous Shiraz fashioned from very old
vines, and aged in 100% new French oak (which is
barely noticeable given the wine's concentration). An
opaque purple color is accompanied by a flamboyant,

Someone observed pine' and wintergreen.' It was still
so young and fresh, and our host commented how these
age forever.' Its palate was long, sexy and elegant yet
also powerful with layers of complexity. There was great
meat and balance to its palate, with a cave-like finish,
like limestone dripping from stalagmites or stalactites,
whichever ones hang from the ceiling lol. Secondary
coconut added even more appeal to this already delicious

color, as well as a tight but promising bouquet of roasted
nuts, dried herbs, and rich, jammy, curranty fruit. The
most impressive components are the exceptional richness
and textured feel. An opaque dark garnet color is
followed by aromas of sweet cedar, old wood, truffles,
smoke, and underbrush. Big, thick, juicy, black currant,
and cherry flavors can be found in this muscular,
monster-sized, exceedingly tannic, dense, backward
wine. The finish must last for nearly a minute in this

one of the greatest wines ever made at this estate. The
wine has smoky, earthy notes intermixed with graphite,
camphor, damp earth, jammy cassis, cedar, and a hint of
mushroom. Enormous, even monstrous in the mouth, with
tremendous extraction, broodingly backward, dense
flavors, and copious tannins, this should prove to be one
of the longest-lived wines of the vintage and one of the
most compelling Leoville Bartons ever made."(96pts)

Trotanoy! The blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10%
Merlot, and 10% Cabernet Franc produced a rich
Dominus, with superb color and a huge, blossoming nose
of black cherries, spicy oak, herbs, and cedar scents. In

Only 37% of the production made it into the 2005, a
blend of primarily Cabernet Sauvignon with less than
13% Merlot and Cabernet Franc. An inky/ruby/purple
color is accompanied by reticent aromatics that, with
considerable coaxing, offer up subtle notes of toasty
vanillin intermixed with lead pencil shavings, wet rocks,
and enormously ripe, intense black cherry and creme de
cassis. The wine hits the palate with a full-bodied,
layered mouthfeel as well as enormous extract,
concentration, and purity. This ageless, monumental
claret requires a minimum of 15-20 years to approach
maturity, and should last for a half century. It is about as
classic a Leoville Las Cases as one will find."(98pts)

This is finesse and flavor authority put into a classic

from this famed domaine, it reveals a rich nose of ripe
pears, buttered hazelnuts, and minerals. Medium-bodied,
lush, intense, and satin-textured, it has exceptional
balance, refinement, and a stupendously long finish.
While it is not the most powerful Corton-Charlemagne, it
has superb focus, detail, and seamlessness. Toast, spices,
pears, and ripe apples can be found throughout its
complex character. If this wine continues to improve in
the bottle as it did in the final months of elevage, it will be
completely mind-boggling."(94pts)

Gevrey Chambertin - Vintage 2004
Clos St. Jacques, Fourrier
(Wines Located in New York)
"Reticent but ripe nose is a bit more animal and less
floral than usual for this vineyard. Then denser and
sweeter on the palate than the nose suggests, with a
chewy texture and impressive palate coverage. Very
sappy, concentrated and suave, with dark cherry and
mineral flavors currently in the deep background. But
this offers terrific breadth for the vintage, and the tannins
are fine."(92pts IWC)

rich, full and powerful flavors that possess excellent
mid-palate sap that helps to buffer the very firm and
dense tannic spine on the youthfully austere finish. This is
a very serious no-nonsense wine clearly built for long

precede highly energetic, concentrated and big-bodied

note that this will definitely not be an early drinker as the

were advantageous the results have been glorious. Its
