  • 2002 Domaine des Comtes Lafon Montrachet Flawed

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Montrachet Grand Cru

    Soft, fat, tired and somewhat oxidized. Experts doomed this to be a defect bottle, I am not so sure, I have had many disappointing Lafons from this vintage …

  • 1993 Domaine Ramonet Montrachet 97 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Montrachet Grand Cru

    Magnificent wine! Like an old Bollinger without the bubbles, coffee galore, old time grocery store, rich, broad, yet still precise - perfectly mature - and what a showing for 1993, one of many on the night. 97 point.

  • 1990 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape 97 Points

    France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape

    Everyone (me included, alas!) was guessing pinot noir and Burgundy here, goes to show the elegance of the ’90 – and also the importance of psychology; everyone is looking at the host, thinking of his cellar, rather than tasting the wine. But this was great! Creamy, elegant, smooth, quite light, but yet will a full base of Grenache. In the Top 5 of the night for me – but hey, that’s me.

  • 1990 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin

    France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape

    More rusticque, more of a peasant wine, speaks of the land …. Took a lot of bashing around the table. I was guessing Northern Rhône here, it is a darker, more restrained wine than its lesser sibling – and loosing out tonight. Maybe not quite correct, I am not sure
