White - Off-dry
2000 Egon Müller/Le Gallais Wiltinger Braune Kupp Riesling Spätlese Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer

Very advanced colour, apricot, beeswax, mirabels, long finish. I would drink up in the next 5 years
White - Off-dry
2000 Dönnhoff Schloßböckelheimer Kupfergrube Riesling Spätlese Germany, Nahe
95 points
What a wine and how well did it develop. Lemon, candle wax, floral, jasmine, cold smoke, dense and long but still not too heavy. One of the best Spätlese ever. This can easily go another 20 years

Red
2000 Château La Croix St. Georges France, Bordeaux, Libournais, Pomerol
Brussels sprouts, beetrot, vegetal, but a very nice mouthfeel, seemed somehow to be an off bottle
Red
2000 Château Ferrière France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux
92 points
Always a funky wine with the high share of Petit Verdot, this had some plum pie, bacon, cedar and peppermint. Again quite light and elegant, but delicious and harmonious
Red
2000 Château Léoville Barton France, Bordeaux, Médoc, St. Julien
94 points
Black cherries, cinammon, hazelnut, warm, sweet and delicious
