Berens am Kai 1 star Restaurant
Tasted Thursday, December 15, 2016 by aquacongas with 723 views
A great wine lover organized again his famous Best Bottle Magnum at Berens am Kai in Düsseldorf. Most bottles were from Bordeaux, the flights were blind
The Starter, very young Mosel Riesling and an extra bottle from Peter Michael, only 120 magnums made, I guessed a little bit older
A great Vieux Certan
An unbelievable HB and a brutal young Palmer 1983
My WOTN
A phenomenal Martha's Vineyard
Wait at least 10 more years or decant 24hours
In strong fitness
For me the winners were Vieux Certan 1955, Latour 1970 (WOTN) and Martha's Vineyard 1975. Mouton and Latour 1982 from perfect cellars are in this stage "undrinkable" Haut Brion 1989 and LMHB 1990 are a hint more accessible than the mentioned Premier Crus.

2009 Peter Michael Chardonnay Cuvée Indigene 93 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Knights Valley
From magnum
Drank blindly,nose was typical for a Californian Chardonnay, Vanilleä, ripebaken bananas, oak well integrated, not overtoasted, powerful body maybe a hint too much alcohol, some Ron Zacapa finish, nice acidity, good with food, 93-94
