1990 Château Gruaud LaroseSt. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend more |
9/29/2013 - Ive Marx wrote: 95 pointsOne of my best bottles. Absolutely great nose, but lacking a bit of refinement on the palate (that said it was served next to the likes of Latour and Margaux '83..) |

2003 Domaine Saint Préfert Châteauneuf-du-Pape Collection Charles GiraudRed Rhone Blend more |
2/27/2013 - Ive Marx wrote: 90 pointsHas evolved relatively well for the vintage but the imbalances that are the hallmark of the vinrage are there. But for the vintage it is a good wine that is still alive. |

2003 Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape Deus-Ex MachinaRed Rhone Blend more |
2/27/2013 - Ive Marx Does not like this wine: 50 pointsKept since release. Not corked, not cooked (I assume), just awful. |

2004 Agostina Pieri Brunello di MontalcinoSangiovese more |
1/20/2013 - Ive Marx Likes this wine: 94 pointsYoung, vigourous with delicious complex nose (sousbois, mushrooms but also red fruit). Balanced expressive palate with juicy ripe fruit, excellent acidity. Good stuff. |

2005 Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-PapeRed Rhone Blend more |
1/8/2013 - Ive Marx wrote: 93 pointsRemains reletively closed. Not a particularly good time to open. Excellent fruit in terms of ripeness, purity and freshness. Quite powerful. Give at least 2 more years. |

2002 Coche-Dury Meursault Les RougeotsChardonnay more |
1/2/2013 - Ive Marx wrote: 93 pointsCoche nose - rich, with a good deal of depth and complexity, but a bit subdued. Palate very rich and vibrant. With a more expressive nose the score would have been higher. |

1999 Domaine Drouhin-Laroze Clos VougeotClos Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
12/25/2012 - Ive Marx wrote: 84 pointsIn line with earlier bottles. Not bad, but for the terroir and the vintage disappointing. A wasted opportunity really. Luckily this sort of mediocrity is on the decline in Burgundy. |

2000 Château Sociando-MalletHaut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/25/2012 - Ive Marx wrote: 94 pointsEntering maturity. Excellent fruit and balance, with exemplary tension between fruit, acidity and tannins. It combines the lushness of the vintage and the relatively austerse style of the house. I actually liked this quite a lot. |

10/9/2012 - Ive Marx wrote: 92 pointsBrilliant textbook Chablis, especially at that price level. |

2003 Ojai Syrah White Hawk VineyardSanta Barbara County more |
4/9/2012 - Ive Marx wrote: 92 pointsVery syrah. Very expressive nose with burnt notes, coffee, tar. Palate follows through on that. Excellent fruit but also a bit heavy and jammy for my taste. |

2004 Il Poggione (Proprietá Franceschi) Brunello di MontalcinoSangiovese more |
4/9/2012 - Ive Marx wrote: 80 pointsNot sure what was wrong about this. Not corked (I think), not cooked (I think), but just very muted. To be revisited. |
