7/12/2012 - PatrikO wrote: 94 pointsa bit young still, but ever so delicious, very complex, meat, kirsh, exotic spices with a hint of bacon fat. will probably warrant a couple of notches higher points a few years down the line. |

1989 Château MontroseSt. Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/12/2012 - PatrikO wrote: 93 pointsGot so excited about the 1990 Montrose the other week that I had to try one of the 89s again. Whilst also a very big and opulent wine, it is just not hitting the high notes that the 90 seem to do, also some acid notes keep atttacking the palate. |

4/5/2012 - PatrikO wrote: 97 pointsBottle in very good shape, haven't had this in a while so a nice surprise that it delivered yet again, in no way does it seem to be past its peak or tired, just full on opulence. |

2003 Castello dei Rampolla d'AlceoToscana IGT Red Bordeaux Blend more |
5/15/2011 - PatrikO wrote: 92 pointsFeels more like Napa than Tuscany. Absolutely packed with fruit, but pulls it off without being jammy as there are some prominent acidity around, very very 2003, you can feel the heatwave from the ripeness of the fruit. Wife loves it, but I prefer the 2000. |

5/15/2011 - PatrikO wrote: 93 pointsThis wine has filled out since i last had it, very thick oily texture, defintely a food wine. Actually think i preferred it younger, just a bit too rich now with burnt toffee, butterscotch and less fresh acidity. |

1995 Harlan EstateNapa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more |
5/7/2011 - PatrikO wrote: 95 pointsBlockbuster of a wine that still fels incredibly young at age 16... Felt it very similar to the 96. Had more of everything next to the Latour from the same year, both showed beautifully, but with the Harlan you get more fruit, concentration, complexity and length. |

1995 Château Latour Grand VinPauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more |
5/7/2011 - PatrikO wrote: 94 pointsHeld it's own vs a Harlan from the same year. Kept gettng better in the glass despite a long decant, still quite a lot of oak present I thought, red berries and cedar, next to the Harlan this was much lighter in colour and did not have the massive concentration an complexity of the american wine, but found the Latour to be slightly more refined. |

5/7/2011 - PatrikO wrote: 92 pointsWhat a surprise after the last bottle So it's true, BV stands for bottle variation, unlike the other, this bottle was full of nice plummy fruit with a beautiful nose. Very nice a silky in mouth, at peak. |
