Very good, consistent with previous notes, apple, toast, apple peel, ginger, chalk, nice texture.

Light gold color. Drank a glass over 30 minutes. Very good and a hit at our table. There's a good amount of toast on this, apple peel, limestone minerality, creamy texture and fine mousse, walnuts, medium plus finish. Good to go now.

This is an interesting wine, and for me hits the 90pt mark, though I don't know that everyone will find this to their liking. Deeply earthy on the nose and palate with red cherry, full bodied and somewhat bold, but it really grew on me.

Another interesting wine, a field blend with about 70% Chard, 20% Sauv Blanc, and 10% Nascetta, tart, razor acidity, the Sauv Blanc shows through, but does not totally dominate, citrus, light apple notes, mineral.

Dark red color. Splash double decant. Drank a glass over an hour. Very good, dried cherry, dried flowers on the nose. Tart, cherry, medium doby, gets better in glass, well balanced, moderate tannins, super with our Cavatelli. 91+pts.

Dark red color. PNP, drank a glass over an hour. We drank the '01 BdM next to the '06 BdM MdG. This was a step better, probably both in readiness and complexity. Red cherry, a slightly candied buttery note, soil and dried earth, spice and dusty dry tannins.

Dark red plus color. This had been opened the night before and slow-O'd with a quick double decant as well; drank a glass over an hour. We drank the '01 BdM next to the '06 BdM MdG. This '01 was a step better, probably both in readiness and complexity. This was also quite good though; bigger and grittier, tart cherry and currants, soil and wood, firm tannins, dense with mushroom and fuller body.

Very dark red color. Drank a glass over 45 minutes. This had a soaring nose of dried cedar, crushed flowers, deep cherry, and anise with damp earth. The palate shows red cherry, black cherry liqueur, anise and nice texture, but it is tempered by the wood showing and heat on the finish. Still very good, though personally, I would not be inclined to age this further and suggest drinking now.

Salmon orange color. I was quite curious to try this, but alas, it was just way too far down the hill. Bet it was something in its day though.

Medium dark red color, minimal color dilution. Opened this at home to check it before leaving and found it was in good shape. This was a direct ex-cellar bottle with a reconditioned cork with only about 1/4 saturation. Pulled the cork to let it sit on the table and got it into to glass for 30 minutes before drinking. It's always nice when these older wines show their colors and since this was a birth year wine for several of us, it was even more special. This really had a nice core of fairly bright red cherry fruit, fine ground tobacco, rose petals, dried peat moss and truffle, dried spices and a leathery note with dried cherry and red currants and a bit of sauvage character too. This has that featherweight feel on the palate with a satiny texture and fine tannins that are still alive but nicely tamed. There's a little vegetal note that emerges after this is in glass about an hour as it drops off a bit. A really fun bottle, 93+ to 94pts.

Dark red color. Drank a glass over an hour. I don't recall the prep on this. Ripe and full bodied, cherry and earth, soil, anise, nice aromatics. 91+pts.

Drank a small glass over 30 minutes. Unfortunately, I didn't take any notes on this and kind of lost track of it. Good, but don't recall it being remarkable. 90ish pts.

Corked to the gills. This one seriously pissed me off.

Very small taste. Similar to previous note. Still pretty firm.

Just got a small taste of this. See Bellissimo's note. I was looking forward to trying it as I've got some. I thought it was good, nice acid, crisp and good green fruit, but I'm inclined to sit on my Mags for a bit. 91pts.

Very small taste. Refer to Chablis28 's note for details. Gorgeous, supple red fruits, cherry and berries, wonderful texture. Would have loved to explore this baby. 94pts or better.

Small taste. Sure,, this is big and ripe, call it modern if you will, but it is flat out delicious, and more importantly it is very well balanced with some grip but really silky texture. 92+pts.

Very small taste. Earthy, red fruits, spices, very good. 91+ to 92 pts.

Small tate. Sour cherry, dried herbs, garrigue-like, tannins, wood and cedarbox.

Tasted, good, chalky, white fruit.

Small taste. Anise, black cherry, heat, soil, gritty, needs 10 years.

Small taste. I really like this, still has some youthful oak to integrate fully, but delicious; a full bodied and vibrant, intense CC, lemon, saline and mineral drivien.

I tasted this, liked it, no notes, but remember thinking, not as good as I expected. In the 90-91 range.

Small taste. Hey, I liked this, fun wine, great aromatics, nice fruit and good energy and drive.

I only copped a tiny taste, but hey, it's Pol Roger, fresh and clean, what's not to like. 91+ to 92pts.

Small taste. I'm guessing another year of age has benefited this, not quite as stark, the fruit seems to handle the minerality and low dosage better on this bottle, tart, citrus, apple, chalk.

Small taste. I liked this, had a nice dose of yeast and toast, apple, white pear, good acid and a nice texture. 92+pts.

Ssmall taste. I can't read most of what I wrote, but I can tell you I really enjoyed the smidge I had. Really earthy with a dank, mushroom and truffle perfume of potpourri and red fruits, silky, excellent.

A tiny taste, fairly typical, good, bright, not too sweet, has the '05 acidity, bright, not so tropical, peach and mandarin orange, moderate spice. 91+pts.

Small taste. I liked this, deep minerality, ocean shoreline, white fruit, full bodied and round. 89+pts.

Small taste. No notes.
