1999 Prince Florent de Merode Corton-Clos du RoiCorton Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
5/18/2010 - Samantha wrote: 90 pointsI was expecting a little bit more, soft palate and a little bit of cedar, could use a bit more acidity, as the night progressed the tannins began to show, revisited the next day and it was gone. Lacking in intensity. Ok, but not great |

1984 Coche-Dury Meursault 1er Cru CharmesChardonnay more |
5/15/2010 - Samantha wrote: 94 pointsgold in color, had that buttery nuttiness, a bit ripe, but explosive and complex on the palate with a very persistent complex finish. Improved in the glass for a few hours |

1999 Domaine de Montille Pommard 1er Cru Les PèzerollesPinot Noir more |
5/13/2010 - Samantha wrote: 90 pointsBlind: very ripe with loads of tannin. Someone guess CA, but there was so much complexity and loads of layers. Need another 10 years at least. |

1980 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La TâcheLa Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
5/13/2010 - Samantha wrote: 95 pointsdelicate and feminine revealing that Vosne spice. The aromatics were beautiful and it opened up quite a bit in the glass. |

1992 Marcassin Chardonnay Gauer Upper BarnAlexander Valley more |
5/13/2010 - Samantha wrote: 91 pointsvery ripe, at first showing quite a bit of alcohol and exotic flavors. Fruit opened up and became more floral covering the alcohol. After a bit there was some purple marker on the nose. Definitely mature, but not oxidized. |

2007 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Meursault 1er Cru CharmesChardonnay more |
1/26/2010 - Samantha wrote: 93 pointsTons of sulfur with a really ridiculously long cork. Couldn't get much with all the sulfur, left the bottle out until lunch the next day... really pure, great citrus acidity, pear, apricots. Really nice wine |

2007 Bouchard Père et Fils Meursault 1er Cru Les PerrièresChardonnay more |
1/25/2010 - Samantha wrote: 93 pointsVery aromatic and floral. Drank well out of the gate at lunch, lots of pear and peach. Very pure with light acidity. Then the oak began to show through big time and out came the tannins. Best to let this settle down for awhile. |

1989 Krug Champagne Vintage BrutChampagne Blend more |
1/25/2010 - Samantha wrote: 93 pointsOut of mag - a little oxidative, very nutty, lots of hazelnut and butterscotch. Very fine bubbles, improved in the glass over the course of a few hours. Not my favorite vintage of Krug but a very good champagne. |

1993 Bonneau du Martray Corton-CharlemagneCorton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay more |
1/25/2010 - Samantha wrote: 94 pointsDrank at the Studio - definitely no sign of premox, light in color, tons of wet stone and minerality. Less fruit, more white flowers and citrus acidity. Good structure and incredibly pure and flashy (less lean). Really great example of the vineyard. |

2000 Domaine Leflaive Chevalier-MontrachetChevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Chardonnay more |
12/17/2009 - Samantha wrote: NRSurprisingly shut down. At first some really tart acidity, but after a few hours the wine began to open and cover the acidity, showing some rich honeysuckle, botrytis, and a touch of oak. A beautiful wine but not in a good place at the moment. |

1985 Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco Riserva AsiliNebbiolo more |
12/17/2009 - Samantha wrote: 93 pointsReally young and tight. Good acidity, soft tannins, ripe young fruit. Lots of black licorice, tobacco, cassis, baking spices and vanilla. This was a perfectly stored bottle and has plenty of time before its ready. |
