Peter's MNSC |  (284 page views) | | | - 1971 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Echezeaux - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Echezeaux Grand Cru
not the best of bottles sadly. too much madeira and funk. (88 pts.)
- 1971 Maison Leroy Echezeaux - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Echezeaux Grand Cru
floral nose with minerals and earth and a touch of coffee. a little sharp on the finish. (93 pts.)
- 1982 Château Latour à Pomerol - France, Bordeaux, Libournais, Pomerol
opened for two hours without decanting. by far best bottle in recent years. soaring nose of tobacco and toast. great intensity. superb. (99 pts.)
- 1982 Château Lafite Rothschild - France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Pauillac
opened for 2hrs without decanting. completely overwhelmed by Latour a Pomerol side by side. good but not great. perhaps could have done with some decanting. (94 pts.)
- 1997 Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select - USA, California, Napa Valley, Stags Leap District
corked. (FLAWED)
- 1997 Etude Cabernet Sauvignon - USA, California, Napa Valley
double decanted back to bottle 3hrs prior. ripe and sweet with hints of smoke and honey. drinking beautifully. surprise package of the evening. (95 pts.)
- 1997 Dominus Estate - USA, California, Napa Valley
double decanted back to bottle 3hrs prior. sweet, smoky and velvety. lovely wine. (96 pts.)
