Bordeaux 1989 (and the rest...) @ Peter V. (Netherlands): Penetrating acidity, rose petals, floral ladies' perfume, tar, ash, black cherries. Very nice. 17.5/20

Powerful, lush aromatics of Barolo, tarbox, dark cherries, roses. Refined yet powerful, tannins on a massive frame opening up nicely. Impressive depth and complexity, giving different profiles at each turn. Still learning to enjoy barolos whence comparing to more oftenly drunk cabernets, zins and pinots...

The fabulous, saturated ruby/purple-colored displays a terrific bouquet of tobacco-tinged tar and black cherry fruit. It is a huge, massive, concentrated Barolo with multiple layers of richness

DRC Tasting with Dave Nerland (Sea Saw, Scottsdale, AZ): Still young and tannic - needs time. Pretty good fruit but expected more from this producer.

Brownish light ruby red to brick hue. Clear, but not all transparent. Two apparent notes, like proustian madeleine cookies: granny's old strawberry jam and newly peeled banana! Airdried ham, dried fruit, flowers, vanilla, bitter almond and beetroot. Quite alcoholic on the nose, anthon bergs marzipan in fruit and liqueur comes to mind, especially the one with strawberries in champagne. Light and playful, but very powerful. On the palate: velvet, sand, alcohol - and length, it goes on for minutes. Did we push the turbo button of the spaceship? Injects directly into the pleasure centre, causes hair-raising shivers and giggle. Ends in a harmonious character of ripe strawberries, sweet cherries and dark chocolate dessert. Extreme, hot-vintage wine, but given its fresh acidity, it should last for a long time.

Peter Pratt's Luguresque Offline - Italian Table (Peter Pratt's Inn - Yorktown Heights): Rounded and approachable. Surprisingly easy to drink already. Very nice.

Peter Pratt's Offline: Notes from Burgundy Table #1 (plus notes on some other wines): I don't get this. The nose is coconut and "big red" chewing gum. The palate is all chewy tannin and oak.
