White
2010 Etienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes Chardonnay
10/19/2023 - liber Does not like this wine:
50 points
9th of 12 CORKED............far too many indifferent, and NOT of merchantable quality, bottles with Sauzet, ie 2nd or 3rd corked bottle in this case with a couple of others flirting with POX. In any normal business this performance would and should lead to bankruptcy!!!!!

Red
2005 Château Valandraud St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend
Another supposed hedonistic 2005 that is like a deflated balloon. The primary experience is of the gruesome leftover of manically implemented cooperage on grapes screaming in agony: toast, oak spice, espresso, cedar, cedar (did I say cedar?). Fruit is dried out and the wine is basically a skeleton with a little flesh hanging from it. Nauseating palate of prunes, raisins, blackberry liqueur, and vanilla. This wine made me ill.
