2001 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Wow what a wine. Today 19/20yrs later this wine is right in the majority wheelhouse. Right now is all the CDP taste like. Amazing youthful but rich meaty fruits, cigar smoke, saddle leather, plumb sauce all come to mind. Decanting is highly recommend!
It will nice to follow this wine over the next decade.

2002 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Spottswoode Estate Vineyard

Outstanding wine. It’s now firing on all cylinders. I opened one 5yrs ago and it was still tight. Now after time and 90min decanting I feel like opening them all up. It’s interesting that RP called Spottswoode the Chateau Margaux of Napa. I would say this bang on. It’s so Bordeaux like and it’s all I love.

2011 Fontodi Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo
5/11/2020 - Jeffrey Silver Likes this wine: 95 Points
If you love Chanti this one is a rock star. I opened it and decanted for 60min. It’s a lovely Sangiovese at the finest. Nose is a heavy dark chocolate, strawberry, and warm toffee.Taste is lovely smoke, tabbaco, incense spices, and warm fruit cake. This wine will age effortlessly for another 10/15year. If you have any wonderful to enjoy with it’s silky tannnis but it will be nice to see what it’s like in 15 years time as it’s ages.
