2010 Marquis de Laguiche (Joseph Drouhin) Montrachet 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Montrachet Grand Cru
Powerfull and sweet nose, tropical, lacks complexity what you expect from Montrachet. Probably time. Blind I rather say New World than classic Burgundy.

Italy, Tuscany, Bolgheri, Bolgheri Sassicaia

Although it is my personal taste the quality of this Tignanello was stunning. Ripe, spice, herbaceous, great texture and length.

2005 Egon Müller/Le Gallais Wiltinger Braune Kupp Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel Auction 94 Points

Stunning nose with the full fruitbasket, blossom, honey, lot's of botrytis, slate. So intense and powerful. Almost to much. Needs time to gain more balance and higher score. (97+)

1972 Graham Porto Single Harvest Tawny 93 Points
Portugal, Douro, Porto
You can smell this one from a distance. Candied fruit, figs, moccha, espresso, butterscotch, salted caramel. Very well integrated alcohol. Screamingly intense, linear and very very long finish.
