2005 Poderi Aldo Conterno Barolo RomirascoNebbiolo more |
1/7/2023 - Andreas T wrote: 93 pointsGreat wine and everything you can ask for from a Barolo but missing that last bit of sexiness to make it a wine you remember. In prime drinking window and should remain there for 5-10 years. |

1/7/2023 - Andreas T wrote: 95 pointsBrilliant! A true success. In a great spot right now but will gain over next 3-5 years. Shows again that Ornellaia is underrated. |

1/7/2023 - Andreas T Likes this wine: 94 pointsJust a little bit tired at this point but a great wine. Smoky nose, fruit still present, long and super elegant. |

2013 Domaine des Lambrays Clos des LambraysClos des Lambrays Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
9/19/2021 - Andreas T wrote: 95 pointsDrinks very nicely and don‘t expect this to improve much further given the vintage. Super sexy, luscious fruit. Less of the typical Lambrays notes. |

2003 Bernhard Huber Spätburgunder Trocken ReserveBaden more |
8/13/2021 - Andreas T wrote: 92 pointsWow, at 18 years this wine is still kicking and fresh. Amazingly fruity nose still, no tertiary notes. Would have guessed this a 2015-16 based on nose. Palate is missing a bit structure and length - hence no better rating. Overall a great experience (especially as Bernhard Huber passed away a few years back and this wine was still made under his leadership) and really speaks for ageability of Huber wines. |

2009 Gaja BarbarescoNebbiolo more |
8/14/2021 - Andreas T Likes this wine: 93 pointsVery elegant nose, roses, tertiary notes nicely developed. Tannins well integrated on the palate, very silky. Drink now or hold but imho this is fully drinkable but we may had a bottle that was slightly more mature as not ideally stored (resto bottle). |

2016 Coche-Dury Bourgogne BlancChardonnay more |
8/13/2021 - Andreas T Likes this wine: 93 pointsFound in restaurant at very friendly price. Very complex nose with nice fruit (peaches, apple, citrus), flinty. Supporting wood but well integrated. You definitely reckognize the Meursault pedigree. Could be a little longer but this is top of the pops for a Bourgogne. This is better than most 1er crus of the Appellation. |

2017 Emidio Pepe Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Vecchie Vignemore |
8/8/2021 - Andreas T Likes this wine: 92 pointsPopped bottle without decant but enjoyed over 3-4 hours. Full warm red-fruited nose, on the jelly side. Some violets and also some orange zest. Very fine now and with a perfect structure to age gracefully for many years, as usual for Pepe wines. |

2005 R. López de Heredia Rioja Blanco Reserva Viña TondoniaWhite Blend more |
7/28/2021 - Andreas T wrote: 93 pointsCoconut hits the nose with some dried ananas. This wine has everything. It’s dry and rich at the same time. Oxydative and restrained - ever changing. Adapted well to our 7-course meal across fish and meat. Surely has 5-10 years more to go but I think you can pop these bottles beautifully right now. |

2010 San Giusto a Rentennano Percarlo Toscana IGTSangiovese more |
7/22/2021 - Andreas T Likes this wine: 93 pointsImpressive what this house is making of Sangiovese. Beautiful deep red garnet colour. Spectacular nose with beautiful red fruit, leather. Palate: tannins still present with great structure and good acidity. Feels very young still. Drink in 5-10 years. |

2005 Chateau Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valleymore |
7/22/2021 - Andreas T Likes this wine: 93 pointsBeautiful nose: red currant, cherries, well integrated wood. Structured and long palate. Positive surprise and in a really nice drinking window at the moment |
