A great lineup of CDP's. The overall theme here is that the older wines are SO MUCH better than the youngsters, with the exception of the 2007 Boursan which just rocked.
Wow, the Piper-Heidsieck was really impressive.
WOTN was unanimous : 1995 Clos des Papes.
2006 Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Brut Millésimé 92 Points
France, Champagne
Consumed a glass over about 30 minutes. The palate here is deep and almost brooding. Tangy apple, wild yeast, great energy. This performed above my expectation.

2009 Rhys Chardonnay Alpine Vineyard 92 Points
USA, California, Santa Cruz Mountains
Consumed a glass over 45 minutes. This was much bigger and less resolved than the 2010 we had a month ago. It was more in the Kistler vein today, but with some nice complexity. I will take the advice on Rhy's website and hold off opening my bottles for a while.
