March 14, 2024 - A perfectly stored bottle from the BB&R Family Reserves.
Deep and concentrated dark cherry, blackberry touch of underripe raspberry. Dark fruit and some dark pepper. Fresh and balanced with a great concentration. Opens to show lovely cigar character.
I really enjoyed this and it is holding up very well from this excellent condition bottle -

July 27, 2023 - this bottle has sat in my cellar for 23 years, I double decanted it and surprisingly there was little sediment. it is as smooth as a baby's a**

May 16, 2023 - Ma dernière bouteille et la meilleure !! J'ai toujours trouvé un manque de matière dans ce millésime,une longueur moyenne et un manque de complexité.Ici,le vin s'est présenté avec un côté raffiné,tout en dentelle,avec des arômes de cerise,de fleur fanée.C'est très agréable et cela descend tout seul.Mais les manquements mentionnés ci dessus restent d'actualité même si moins nets que sur les bouteilles précédentes.

May 11, 2023 - Italian Night in Jax (La Cena): My slight favorite between this and a 97 Ornellaia but both are to me just excellent wines. This still always reminds me of our stop right before the visit where we drove the two mins it took to get to the sea. You can taste that in the wine. Just a touch of brine and seashell along with everything else. Lovely wine. Wish we had more of it.

April 22, 2023 - Elegant, feminine, cherry, currants, spice, well integrated tannins, long finish, drank alongside the much more tannic, masculine Solaia 1995
