April 20, 2022 - A lovely wine with friends, Decanted 2 hours ahead of the meal. The cork in great shape, slight prune and leather on the nose, lighter body than I expected, great deep ruby color. Blackberry, leather and slight pepper on palate with mellow tannins. Perfect with my friend's bow-hunted oryx tenderloin with a morel cream sauce and roasted asparagus. Wish I has another bottle!

January 22, 2019 - 1982-1991 Cote-Rotie and Hermitage (Chave, Gentaz, Jaboulet, Jamet, Jasmin, Ogier) (Berkeley): Group's #8; my #4; 2 first; 1 second; 1 third; 12 last. Complex aromas and flavors of dark fruits, cassis, bacon fat, and oak. Tastes smother and more modern than the other wines in the tasting. Medium-bodied, with decent fruit concentration, medium acidity, mild tannins, and a long finish. Strangely, almost everyone at the other table though that this was corked.

July 18, 2017 - Brought my only bottle of the 91 Ogier CR to last night's wine group dinner as we said farewell to our friend Brian, who is to moving to Florida's Left Coast. With a wine 26 years old, even though it was well cellared, you never know how it's going to go.But this bottle went great, fantastic even. The classic bacony nose was present from the first sniff, and Pablo nailed it as a CR right away. This wine had had elegance and complexity, and was softer than the slightly younger, mid-90s CRs I have like Guigal Ampuis and Rene Rostaing. Perhaps the most interesting thing to me, and the others, is that this wine was not on the downside - fully mature and won't likely won't get any better, but just a joy to drink. I had been thinking for a while about when to bring it to a group dinner. Glad I waited until now - 1991 is special for Brian (year he got married) and he's brought much younger Ogiers to past dinners. The whole dinner was fabulous -- kudos to chef Oscar at Two Chefs for 4 wonderful courses (as usual), and everyone's wines were spot on as well. At the previous dinner one of the guys brought a slightly corky '82 Leoville Las Cases; so Barry decided to bring one from his cellar this time that was everything you'd want in a LLC from a great vintage. Since we do a double-blind format, I and several others IDed at Bordeaux but no one guessed LLC. For me, that and the Ogier were my co-WOTN.

July 19, 2016 - Medium body and really elegant, the nose was quite mature, lots of meaty aromas and Asian spices, I think it started to shine after 30mins or so and opened up beautifully over an hour or 2
