As Christian Seely quipped, "the vines are accustomed to the heat". It unfolds in the glass, gaining vigor, if not complexity, with touches of leather, California raisin and dried flower emerging.

It might not possess the power of the Nacional but it has freshness to spare. That comes through on the beautifully composed palate, which is underpinned by fine tannins that lend it a silky smooth mouthfeel.

Half of the wine is aged in neutral wood foudres and the other half in tank prior to being bottled unfined and unfiltered. The sources for Mon Aieul are three vineyard parcels with vines averaging between 75 and 87 years of age.

It hits the palate with a seamless integration of wood, tannin, acidity and alcohol and has tremendous opulence and palate presence in its full-bodied, long finish. On aromatics alone, it rates a perfect score, but I ended up being somewhat conservative I suppose. It should drink well for three decades as well."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $500-650

Structurally, it is similar to the Piggott Range, revealing abundant amounts of sweet, ripe tannin, and huge extract, richness, and depth. Meant for true connoisseurs who are willing to forget it for 5-8 years, it represents what Roman Bratasiuk and Clarendon Hills do so well show respect for the great traditions of France, but recognize the extraordinary raw materials that emerge from old vines planted in McLaren Vale."(99pts)6 bottles per lot $1000-1300

Its dense purple color reveals a slight lightening at the edge and the stunning bouquet offers classic notes of creme de cassis, subtle smoke, oak and graphite.

Bottled naturally, with no filtration, it is a monumental example of the elegance and power that symbolize this extraordinary vineyard.

We often tasted it side by side with the 1982, because I always preferred the latter vintage. Of course, the two vintages are quite different in style, with the 1986 a monument to classicism, with great tannin, extraordinary delineation, and a huge, full-bodied nose of sweet, ripe cassis fruit intermixed with vanilla, melon, fruitcake, and a multitude of spices.

Crushed flowers, rose petals, spices, sweet herbs and red berries round out the finish, but it is the energy and cut that elevate the South Knoll. The truth, though, is that a hypothetical 50/50 blend of both Forchini Zinfandels is better than the two wines when tasted apart. "(92pts VM)2 bottles per lot $80-100

Ripe honeydew melon near the rind laced with fresh lime, coriander, radish and white pepper make for an invigorating and incisive performance, with sweet allusions to nutmeg offering contrast while wet stone helps frame the flavors in a long finish.

Not surprisingly for a young Montrachet, this is still on its way up and it will be another 3 to 5 years before this peaks and it should be capable of holding at that level for up to another decade.

3911 Amarone - Vintage 2002Dal Fornowxc (Wines Located in New York)"...a first-class effort in every way. The wine reveals loads of ripe, generous fruit that flow onto the palate with stunning intensity. This remarkably pure Amarone possesses incredible detail in its dark wild cherries, chocolate, herbs and toasted oak. The tannins build mightily on the finish even if this isn t one of Dal Forno s most massive wines. There is a lot of purity and depth here, although the tannins could use a little more polish.

4253 Clos St. Denis - Vintage 2006Vieilles Vignes, D. Laurent2lscl, 1tl (Wines Located in New York)"...But great wine has a way of focusing your mind, and from the first whiff it was clear that here was a grand cru completely different and no less compelling. Candied black raspberries, violets, buddleia, iodine, and hints of caramel issue an enticing call from the glass. On the palate, this offers counterpoint of bitter fruit pits; medicinal iodine and herbal concentrates;

bitter-sweet floral perfume; fresh berry puree; and savory, carnal pan reductions. The tenderness and caress characteristic of some of the best 2006s are present here in spades, and in this Pinot's velvety embrace, I started to forget all about that frightening Clos de la Roche! Had you asked me what this was blind, I'm sure I would have said "Musigny." Incidentally, Laurent relates that these vines were planted around the time of the First World War, but that unfortunately, in 2007 he couldn't access their fruit which served for three barrels in 2006. Dominique Laurent whose methodology I attempted to clarify in a bit more detail in my report for issue 171 purchased fewer wines in 2006 (not all of which I tasted) than he had in 2005, particularly at the lower end of the classificatory spectrum and in the Côte de Beaune. On the other hand, there were some correspondingly sweet opportunities, he noted, to expand acquisitions in top-notch crus due to initial hesitation of many negociants to buy heavily into this vintage. Laurent was highly enthusiastic about the quality of the wines he did raise, which in the glass often proved even more infectious than his enthusiasm and that's saying something! What's more, although these wines generally produced in 50-250 case quantities have a reputation for high prices, most of these 2006s especially in their upper-echelons strike me as exhibiting excellent price:quality rapport. While absence of chaptalization and absence of sulfur during the elevage remain constant features this year, less of the wine Laurent purchased and raised from 2006 was vinified with stems than in most years. Vieilles Vignes," incidentally, is used like a brand name chez Laurent, referring to all of his better wines, whereas his "Tradition" line none of which I tasted consists of cuvées rendered in slightly larger volumes and exclusively for the French market. Since the words "Vieilles Vignes" are prominently displayed on the label, I have included them as part of each wine's description, although one will often see Laurent's same top wines referred to without that designation.

4255 Mazis Chambertin - Vintage 2006Vieilles Vignes, D. Laurent(Wines Located in New York)"Black cherry preserves, toasted pecan, peat, and iodine inform the powerful and pungent nose of Laurent's 2006 Mazis Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, representing an assemblage of juice from both the Mazis-Hauts and Mazis-Bas sections of that cru. This is another sumptuously rich, palpably dense, but finely tannic Laurent 2006, and the suggestions of mineral and animal dimensions are more evolved, deeper, and more intriguing than in the corresponding Charmes. It finishes with superb persistence, promising to reward 12-15 years of cellaring, and probably best left untouched for the first 4-6 of those. "(93pts)4 bottles per lot $400-550

4257 Nuits St. Georges - Vintage 2006Les Vaucrains, D. Laurent1lwrl (Wines Located in New York)"The Laurent 2006 Nuits St.-Georges Les Vaucrains Vieilles Vignes once again representing three barrels from a parcel of vines planted in the 1920s, its fruit only around half de-stemmed shares with the corresponding Les Argillieres its underlying sense of stoniness and of abundant though fine-grained tannins. A plum cake-like sense of dried pit fruit and brown spices as well as of luscious density informs this wine's formidable yet already enticing palate. There may not yet be a wealth of nuance on display here, nor is there the kinetic dimension of buoyancy that accrues to many of the best 2006s. But as this monumentally rich, positively-powerful, for now seemingly vintage a-typical Pinot unfolds, there are going to be happy faces among the few lucky enough to own some. I would plan to revisit this in 2011 or 2012 and anticipate at least half a dozen years of impressive performance thereafter. "(93pts)3 bottles per lot $190-220

4258 Pommard - Vintage 2006Les Epenots, Vieilles Vignes, D. Laurent(Wines Located in New York)"Representing a single barrel, from vines he says were planted in 1898 and which "while they might be old, are still in great form," Laurent's 2006 Pommard Les Epenots Vieilles Vignes displays an unusually intense cyanic, fruit bit concentration and iodine minerality whose common bitterness is balanced by diverse berry fruit of exceptional, almost port-like, desiccated concentration and sweetness. Yet, there is lift and vivacity here (and only 13.5% alcohol), as well as exceptional refinement of tannins, and practically endless, caressing length. Regardless of what one knows about Laurent's methods or has been told about these pre-phylloxera vines, just tasting this wine brings to mind thoughts of what Burgundy might have been like and is often said to have been like a century ago. "It's a Pinot from another world," remarks Laurent, evidently anticipating my thoughts..."(94pts)3 bottles per lot $190-220

This is a classic Corton yet consistent with the style of the 2010 vintage, this is not unduly rustic, indeed the tannins, while firm, are actually relatively refined."(94-96pts BH)4 bottles per lot $450-600

Full-bodied, rich, decadent and unctuous on the palate, this beauty gives up fabulous notes of dark fruits, dusty soil, licorice, roasted herbs and toasted spice.

4301 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 1986St. Julien(Wines Located in New York)"The late Michel Delon always thought that this was the greatest vintage he had produced. We often tasted it side by side with the 1982, because I always preferred the latter vintage. Of course, the two vintages are quite different in style, with the 1986 a monument to classicism, with great tannin, extraordinary delineation, and a huge, full-bodied nose of sweet, ripe cassis fruit intermixed with vanilla, melon, fruitcake, and a multitude of spices.

4304 Château Pichon Lalande - Vintage 1982Pauillacvhs, bsl, wisl, scc (Wines Located in New York)"...retains all its glossy, rich, flamboyant cassis fruit, chocolaty, berry jam-like notes, and plenty of earthy, foresty flavors. This is a full-bodied, extravagantly rich Pichon Lalande seemingly devoid of acidity and tannin, but the wine is incredibly well-balanced and pure. It is an amazing effort!"(100pts)1 bottle per lot $500-650

4309 Clos Fourtet - Vintage 2009St. Emilionnl (Wines Located in New York)"...is one of the greatest young Bordeaux I have ever tasted.

4310 Clos L'Eglise - Vintage 2009Pomerol(Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 is one of the sexiest wines in Pomerol in this vintage, offering up notes of melted caramel, sweet mocha, blackberry and black cherry fruit, with hints of loamy soil and unsmoked cigar tobacco as well as a touch of white chocolate and some subtle toasty oak.

4320 Château Figeac - Vintage 1986St. Emilionlgsl, ltl, sdc (Wines Located in New York)"The 1986 Figeac was all about the leather at first, "cuire" someone commented. It had a beautiful nose with more wintergreen, meat, nut, and plummy, sweet, purple fruits. There was a cake-like quality to its sweetness. There was also a kiss of olive, but that was secondary. The palate was rich, long and with excellent tannins and acidity, just a flat-out great Figeac. The '86 actually had more vigor then the '90 as it stayed in the glass, still maintaining its level of richness and style, and Madame Nicolas of La Conseillante, who was also a guest at the lunch, also admired its character."(95+pts JK)1 bottle per lot $120-160

Juicy and fine, with flavors of redcurrant, dried flowers and spices; reminded me of a particularly fragrant sangiovese. Light on its feet due to bright acids, but I don't find this quite as rich or primary as it appeared from barrel a year ago.

Knockout grand cru aromas of macerated berries, licorice, jasmine, animal fur, tar and exotic baking spices; a great example of Bonnes-Mares, showing both the floral and animal aspects of the cru. Fills the mouth with sappy sucrosity, lifted by a strong floral element. A wine of great energy, finishing with firm but sweet tannins.

Chapoutier1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Chapoutier's Côte Rôtie cuvée Mordoree is made from a small parcel of 75-80 year old vines adjacent to Guigal's famed single vineyard, La Turque. The 1995 Côte Rôtie cuvée Mordoree may turn out to rival the phenomenal 1991. It is the most complex, elegant, and multi-dimensional young Côte Rôtie I have tasted from Chapoutier. The awesome aromatics include scents of coffee, black-raspberries, vanilla, chocolate, hickory smoke, flowers, and Provencal olives."(95pts)6 bottles per lot $400-600

4454 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1996

La Mordoree, M. Chapoutier1x6 botte owc (Wines Located in New York)"...possess intensely-saturated black/purple colors, and smoky, black raspberry, coffee, and chocolate-scented noses with black olives thrown in for complexity. The 1996 may have greater length, but that is splitting hairs at this level of quality. Both are medium to full-bodied, rich, extraordinary examples of Côte Rotie that possess power as well as finesse. Both will require cellaring to reveal their personalities."(91pts)6 bottles per lot $240-320

4455 Ermitage - Vintage 1992Le Pavillon, M. Chapoutierltl, sd (Wines Located in New York)"...offers an exotic, Asian spice, mineral, licorice, and essence of blackcurrant and black-cherry-scented nose. Amazingly rich and intense, with a finish that lasts for over a minute, this is another monumental effort."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $70-90

4456 Ermitage - Vintage 1995Le Pavillon, M. Chapoutierlbsl (Wines Located in New York)"...should prove to be a perfect wine. The harvest for this cuvée did not begin until early October, several weeks after the last drop of rain. The result is an opaque black/purple-colored wine that is just beginning to reveal its exquisite potential. It appears to possess the concentration of the profound 1990 and 1989, yet better acidity, resulting in a more backward and delineated wine."(99pts)1 bottle per lot $140-180

4464 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Clos des Papes, P. Avril(Wines Located in New York)"It exhibits what is probably the deepest color I have ever seen here, and the finished alcohol is a high (for Clos des Papes) 15.5%. Still slightly restrained because of its 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 palate with a fascinating combination of substance, power, full-bodied authority yet extraordinary freshness, elegance, and precision."(99+pts)5 bottles per lot $400-600

4469 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Reserve des Deux Freres, P. Usseglionl (Wines Located in New York)"...it's a blockbuster, but everything is in perfect balance, and, remarkably, it comes across as the most accessible Reserve des Deux Freres made to date. This wine's aging is completely different from its sibling-s. Sixty percent is aged in 1, 2, and 3-year-old Burgundy barrels, and the rest in small new oak barrels, but there is not a hint of new oak in the aromatics. The bouquet reveals plenty of blackberry, blueberry, and cassis fruit intertwined with notions of melted licorice, spring flowers, and that classic garrigue note that comes across as the seaweed wrapper used in sushi restaurants, nori. There is a certain smokiness that is probably attributable to the oak, and the wine has incredible depth and richness, as well as a finish that seems endless"(100pts)1 bottle per lot $120-160

4470 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2003Secret de Sabon, R. Sabon(Wines Located in New York)"The 2003 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Le S cret des Sabon is extremely powerful and full-bodied with that note of truffle oil, burning embers, and roasted meats along with melted licorice, Crème de cassis, blackberry and cherry. Dense, full-bodied, and expansive, with high glycerin and what must be at least 16+% alcohol, this is a formidable Châteauneuf-du-Pape that should drink well for 15+ years."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $60-80

4471 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Secret de Sabon, R.

The finish is virtually endless, lasting well past a minute."(97+pts)1 bottle per lot $90-120

4472 Bollinger Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1990RD(Wines Located in New York)"A full-bodied, powerful Champagne featuring biscuit and ginger aromas and flavors, picking up a grilled nut character on the finish.

4474 Krug Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1988(Wines Located in New York)"At Krug they themselves compare the wine with the '81, the '55, and the '61. Personally, I compare it to the '66 and the ultra elegant '79. The finesse is unbeatable and the acidity very noticeable. This is a wine that is going to be enjoyed by our grandchildren. Most people probably discourage immediate consumption of this young wine, but I am of a different opinion. I believe that a little bit of the subtle feeling of tears of joy disappears when the wine matures."(97pts RJ)1 bottle per lot $400-600

4475 Taittinger Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1995Comtes de Champagnelscl (Wines Located in New York)"The hugely impressive 1995 Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs displays ripe apple and pear scents.

4476 Taittinger Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1996Comtes de Champagnelscl (Wines Located in New York)"Green-gold. Vibrant, youthful, precise aromas of green apple, Meyer lemon and dusty citrus zest. Racy and taut on the palate, with a strong mousse and impressive focus and concentration to the tangy apple and citrus flavors. Juicy, palate-staining finish of striking purity.

Araujo has enjoyed an incredible string of top-notch vintages from 2001 through 2005 and again from 2008 through 2010. Extremely youthful at age ten, the 2002 is a candidate for perfection. Its dense blue/purple hue is followed by abundant aromas of cassis, incense, crushed rocks and spring flowers. Full-bodied and opulent as well as pure, rich and authoritative, with abundant but beautifully integrated tannins, this opulent, plush 2002 can be drunk now or cellared for another 20-25 years."(99pts)

4747 Turley Zinfandel - Vintage 1997Black Sears Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 1997 Zinfandel Black-Sears Vineyard (81-year old vines; 17% alcohol) is the finest Black-Sears Turley has yet produced. Flirting with perfection, it is one of the most extraordinary Zinfandels I have ever tasted. This vineyard, located high on Howell Mountain, in a wilderness area inhabited by mountain lions, bobcats, and wild pigs, has turned out a saturated black/purple-colored wine with fabulous aromas of creme de cassis, minerals, cold steel, Asian spices, violets, and licorice. The wine possesses unbelievable fruit richness, layers of extract and glycerin, phenomenal purity, and a 40+-second finish. Somehow, some way, the 17% alcohol has been concealed beneath the wine's extraordinary richness. Is it any wonder that so many other Zinfandel

producers are jealous of Turley Cellars? This offering should drink beautifully for 7-8 years. Larry Turley feels that the 1997 Zinfandels "are the best wines we have yet made." The wines are amazingly good, and as the tasting notes suggest, readers could buy blind here and always end up with a juicy, complex, mouthfilling wine. Release date 9/99. Tel.

vlbsl, sdc, scc (Wines Located in New York)"A 1988 Cheval Blanc had a sexy nose, also in a good spot. Pierre Lurton commented how 1988 was a very classic vintage, deep and dark in color, and that 2004 was like 1988 with more ripeness, which caused Bipin to mutter something about Pavie that I won t repeat! Wolf appreciated its great nose and found the 88 to be a wine for Cheval lovers, for the thinking drinker. He went on to say nothing (was) overstated and admired its beautiful harmony. The wine was open and singing, Pierre picking up on some minty qualities. The nose did have gorgeous red fruits, nuts, a kiss of vanilla, caramel and a touch of earth. The palate had excellent richness, great balance and a long finish. This was an excellent Cheval all the way. As the wine developed, its bready aromas became divine, and its nuttiness got sexier. Flavors of chocolate, meat and earth expanded on its rich palate, which was a bit rusty in a good way. Tasty and with definition, the 1988 Cheval was a real surprise to me, and its vigor held as tertiary aromas of olive, wintergreen and almost dill joined the party."(93pts JK)1 bottle per lot $320-450

4800 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 1982St. Julienbn (Wines Located in New York)"This huge wine is, in many ways, just as massive as Leoville Barton, but it possesses a greater degree of elegance as well as unreal concentration. Classic lead pencil, cassis, kirsch, cedar, and spice characteristics are abundant in both the nose and full-bodied flavors. The tannins are still there, and, at least from my cellar, this 1982 does not appear to have changed much in the last 10-12 years."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $300-400

4801 Château Trotanoy - Vintage 2008Pomerol(Wines Located in New York)"One of the superstars of the vintage, the 2008 Trotanoy is a wine that transcends the vintage. Typically, this is not one of the more lush, sexy wines of Pomerol, but rather a muscular, masculine effort, and that's the case in 2008. A deep purple color is followed by copious amounts of red and black fruit, earth, cedar and forest floor notes. The wine reveals a full-bodied texture, phenomenal concentration for a 2008, plenty of sweet tannin and a terrific finish. While it was surprisingly approachable, it will benefit from several years of cellaring and last 20-25 years."(96pts)3 bottles per lot $350-500

4823 Chevalier Montrachet - Vintage 2000Les Demoiselles, L. Jadot(Wines Located in New York)"It's exceedingly rare to find a wine that is as seamless, majestic and classy as this one and for all its obvious gifts, it remains understated, pure and subtle. Ultra elegant and refined aromas of limestone, earth, pear and green apple lead to nuanced, complex, intense and detailed flavors simply oozing with extract. The acidity here is pronounced yet perfectly integrated. Classic, old-style white Burgundy that is the epitome of grace. In a word, gorgeous."(95pts BH)1 bottle per lot $220-280

4824 Montrachet - Vintage 2006L. Jadot(Wines Located in New York)"A wonderfully fresh, airy and bright nose of citrus and green apple aromas trimmed in a bit of wood spice complement perfectly the big, rich and gorgeously intense full-bodied flavors that also ooze with dry extract driven into a palate staining and explosively long finish. This is actually a beautifully elegant example with superb flavor authority and the purity of expression is flat out terrific.

4828 Montrachet - Vintage 2012Sauzet1x1 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"A notably ripe and overtly exotic nose of mostly dried yellow orchard fruit, spice and subtle floral nuances introduces succulent and unctuously-textured big-bodied flavors that also coat the palate with dry extract on the explosively long and intense finish. This is not as yet especially complex but it seems reasonably clear that the underlying material is up to the task of providing the basis for more to develop with bottle age."(94pts BH)1 bottle per lot $500-650

1sdc (Wines Located in New York)5 bottles per lot $150-200

5271 Noon Reserve Shiraz - Vintage 1999(Wines Located in New York)"Dense ruby/purple, a classic Cabernet nose of cedar wood, smoke, cassis, mineral, lead pencil, and new oak soars from the glass. In the mouth, it is full-bodied, with fabulous concentration and multi-layered texture, high levels of glycerin, and a seamless, concentrated, long finish with well-integrated tannin, acidity, and alcohol. This is no wimpish wine at 14.6% alcohol...only 290 cases of this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon made from 25-30 year old vines..."(94pts)3 bottles per lot $150-200

5272 The Colonial Estate Shiraz - Vintage 2002Exile(Wines Located in New York)"Produced from a dry-farmed, single vineyard of old vine Shiraz (some of which are 120 years old), the stunning, inky/purple-tinged 2002 Shiraz Exile was aged in 100% new French oak. A sweet nose of black fruits, flowers, melted licorice, and espresso roast precedes a wine of amazing concentration, compelling intensity, and a tremendous finish of more than 60 seconds. Although expensive, readers must take into consideration the age of the vines as well as the limited production. This exquisite Shiraz is approachable, but promises to hit its peak in 3-5 years, and last for two decades. Kudos to proprietor Jonathan Malthus for his work in the Barossa."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $60-80

5372 Château Cos d'Estournel - Vintage 1995St. Estephe(Wines Located in New York)"A wine of extraordinary intensity and accessibility a sexier, more hedonistic offering than the muscular, backward 1996. Opulent, with forward aromatics (gobs of black fruits intermixed with toasty pain grille scents and a boatload of spice), this terrific Cos possesses remarkable intensity, full body, and layers of jammy fruit nicely framed by the wine's new oak."(95pts)2 bottles per lot $260-350

5373 Château Cos d'Estournel - Vintage 1996St. Estephe(Wines Located in New York)"Saturated deep ruby. Ineffable aromas of black fruits, minerals, licorice and Havana tobacco.

Superb."(94pts IWC)1 bottle per lot $120-160

This was wine of the year in 1998; well deserved."(95pts WS)2 bottles per lot $220-300

5375 Château Ducru Beaucaillou - Vintage 1996St. Julien(Wines Located in New York)"This wine is remarkable. It is muscular, concentrated, and classic a saturated ruby/purple color a knock-out nose of minerals, licorice, cassis, and an unmistakable lead pencil smell that I often associate with top vintages of Lafite-Rothschild. It is sweet and full-bodied, yet unbelievably rich with no sense of heaviness or flabbiness. The wine possesses high tannin, but it is extremely ripe, and the sweetness of the black currant, spice-tinged Cabernet Sauvignon fruit is pronounced. This profound, backward Ducru-Beaucaillou is a must purchase."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

5376 Château Grand Puy Lacoste - Vintage 1986Pauillac

ts, ltl, sdc (Wines Located in New York)"Still possesses an impressive deep ruby/purple color, as well as a classic nose of cedar, blackcurrants, smoke, and vanillin. Full-bodied, powerful, authoritatively rich, and loaded with fruit, this wine's solid lashing of tannin is not likely to melt away for 3-4 more years. It can be drunk, although it is backward and unyielding. Certainly, it is one of the better northern Medocs of the vintage."(91pts)1 bottle per lot $70-90

5379 Château La Mission Haut Brion - Vintage 1985Gravesbn (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. The finish is long, rich, and convincing."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $300-400

5380 Château Lynch Bages - Vintage 1995Pauillac(Wines Located in New York)"Complex aromas of currants, berries and mint. Full-bodied, very tannic, but velvety and caressing. Getting better all the time."(94pts WS)2 bottles per lot $220-300

5384 Château Pichon Baron - Vintage 1995Pauillac1sdc (Wines Located in New York)"...possesses an expansive mid-section, superb ripeness, medium body, and high tannin in the impressively long finish. The wine is backward, but the low acidity and high extract should come together to create an outstanding claret."(90pts)2 bottles per lot $200-300

The wine is full-bodied, and nearly sweet tasting because of the fruit's exceptional ripeness. Expansive and deep, with the wood, tannin, and acidity nearly masked by the sheer quantity of fruit, the 1970 Vega Sicilia Unico is a velvety-textured, seamless, rich, profound wine that is more approachable than the 1968, yet, along with that legendary wine, remarkably fresh and youthful. It is astonishing that a twenty-five year old wine could look, smell, and taste so young, yet also be so complex. No one knows how Vega Sicilia achieves such brilliance, but the proof is in the bottle."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $550-750

Opaque purple-colored, it boasts spectacular, soaring aromatics of vanilla, minerals, coffee, blackberries, licorice, and cassis. In the mouth, layer after layer unfold powerfully yet gently.

5523 Pahlmeyer Red - Vintage 19972vlscl (Wines Located in New York)"...flirts with perfection. This wine shares some of the chocolatey characteristics of the two Merlot vintages, but there is more cassis liqueur, blackberries, blueberries, and pain grille (toast) notes in this lavishly rich, flamboyant proprietary red.

5568 Château Pavie - Vintage 2005St. Emilion2nl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2005 Pavie is an absolutely amazing wine that has shed most of its oak aging (usually 24-28 months). Opaque purple in color, it is beyond belief in extract and concentration, but perfectly balanced and pure, with the oak well-integrated. Massively concentrated, and still a baby, this wine tastes more like it's two to three years old than one that's been around for a decade. Intense notes of grilled meats, spice box, cassis, black cherry, licorice and graphite arepresent in abundance. Enormously endowed, but with superlative purity and balance, this is the greatest Pavie in the early Perse era, starting in 1998. Only the 2009 and 2010 rival this in his opinion, but I would add the 2000. This killer effort should drink well for another 50 years and demonstrates the greatness of this terroir owned by the Perse family. Only 7,000 cases were produced from a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Bravo!"(100pts)3 bottles per lot $750-950

Even better from bottle than it was from barrel, the 2001 L Esprit des Pavots (an 843-case blend of 47% Cabernet Franc, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot) boasts a deep ruby purple color, a silky texture, and a sweet nose of licorice, white chocolate, laurel, and creme de cassis. It is a beautiful, opulent, medium to full-bodied red to enjoy now and over the next 10-12 year."(90pts)2 bottles per lot $80-100

5639 Peter Michael Red - Vintage 1997Les Pavots(Wines Located in New York)"A blue/black/purple color is followed by an extraordinary bouquet of toast, blackberries, creme de cassis, licorice, and cedar.

5640 Peter Michael Red - Vintage 2000Les Pavots(Wines Located in New York)"A rich, decadent style, with a loamy core of tannins underneath an equally earthy core of currant, tobacco, leather and spice.

The wine is loaded with black fruits, and the long, rich finish displays considerable soft tannin. Low acidity gives the wine plenty of upfront appeal in that fleshy, flamboyant style of so many 1982s.

Classic lead pencil, cassis, kirsch, cedar, and spice characteristics are abundant in both the nose and full-bodied flavors.

The wine exhibits a good dark ruby/garnet color, a sweet nose of cedar, chocolate, cassis, and spices, good ripe fruit and extraction, and a weighty, large-scaled, tannic finish.

"Latour's Corton-Charlemagne is this negociant's flagship wine. The 1997's nose was rather unyielding on my visit to the firm's Château Grancey (in Aloxe-Corton) cellars. With aeration, it revealed huge ripeness in its poached white fruit and hazelnut aromatics. On the palate, it is broad, creamy, luscious, and hedonistic. This medium-to-full-bodied Corton's flavor profile is composed of sweet pears, candied/spiced apples, sugar-coated nuts, and hints of new oak. Moreover, it possesses a long, dense, and flavorful finish. Projected maturity: 2000-2007. Louis Latour is represented by a different importer in each state."(91-93pts)5 bottles per lot $300-420

Its awesomely long finish reveals loads of supple, well-integrated tannins wrapped in even more sweet fruits and vanilla-imbued oak. Wow!..."(93-95pts)11 bottles per lot $450-600

In fact, this is really quite forward and while it should hold for many years at this level, I don't see any further improvement potential.

The wine is simply glorious, that s all there is to it. Layers of dark fruit meld into smoke, leather, violets, menthol, earthiness and tar as this profound wine opens up in the glass.

Flirting with perfection, it is one of the most extraordinary Zinfandels I have ever tasted. This vineyard, located high on Howell Mountain, in a wilderness area inhabited by mountain lions, bobcats, and wild pigs, has turned out a saturated black/purple-colored wine with fabulous aromas of creme de cassis, minerals, cold steel, Asian spices, violets, and licorice. The wine possesses unbelievable fruit richness, layers of extract and glycerin, phenomenal purity, and a 40+-second finish. Somehow, some way, the 17% alcohol has been concealed beneath the wine's extraordinary richness. Is it any wonder that so many other Zinfandel producers are jealous of Turley Cellars? This offering should drink beautifully for 7-8 years. Larry Turley feels that the 1997 Zinfandels "are the best wines we have yet made." The wines are amazingly good, and as the tasting notes suggest, readers could buy blind here and always end up with a juicy, complex, mouthfilling wine. Release date 9/99. Tel.

Yes, the alcohol is high at 17%, but it is concealed by the wine's unimaginable richness and intensity. Moreover, the extraordinary purity of black raspberry and cherry fruit, the amazing integration of acidity, alcohol, and wood, and the fascinating way this wine runs across the palate, must all be tasted to be believed."(97pts)
