Flight 1 (1 note)
White
1982 Château Laville Haut-Brion Blanc
88 points
deep yellow, gasoline, past prime. drinks more like sherry.
Flight 2 (3 notes)
Red
1990 Domaine Charvin Châteauneuf-du-Pape
94 points
loaded with black fruits, Asian spice, roasted herbs and a touch of soy sauce. unmistakable grenache. everyone thought it was Henri Bonneau - that's the biggest compliment any winemaker can hope for!
Red
1990 Domaine Ponsot Griotte-Chambertin
96 points
expressive, opulent, blue/black fruits, earthy yet elegant. lovely.
Red
Flight 3 (3 notes)
Red
1991 Rene Rostaing Côte-Rôtie La Landonne
95 points
stunning nose when first poured into glass with soaring notes of graphite, truffle and sweet earth. rich and bordeaux-like. became more subdued with time but still a wonderful drink.
Red
1991 Domaine Jean-Louis Chave Ermitage Cuvée Cathelin
99 points
sensational. intoxicating nose of spice, flowers, jammy cherries, smoke and dried herbs. totally burgundian - was convinced it was a DRC at one stage! bravo!
Red
1991 Emmanuel Rouget Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Cros Parantoux
94 points
light colour. floral nose with hint of mint. a little bitter towards the end.
