| Ch. Lafite Rothschild |
1983 |
Pauillac  Corroded Capsule |
$750 |

|
| |
WA 93 (3/1997): Finally, the 1983 Lafite is beginning to shed its tannin. The wine exhibits a deep ruby/garnet color with only a slight lightening at the edge. The intoxicatingly perfumed nose of lead pencil, pain grille, red and black fruits, minerals, and roasted herbs is provocative. In the mouth, this wine displays considerable body for a Lafite, plenty of power, and a fleshy, rich, sweet mid-palate. Long, elegant, plump, and surprisingly fleshy, this Outstanding example of Lafite seems largely forgotten given the number of high quality vintages during the golden decade of the eighties. Anticipated maturity: Now-2030.
WS 91 (10/1994): Another excellent vintage for Lafite. Extremely fresh, with lovely blackberry and cassis character, a medium body and full tannins. Needs time. Try after 1996. |

| Ch. Palmer |
2014 |
Margaux |
$249 |

|
| |
VM 95+ (2/2017): The 2014 Palmer is endowed with serious depth and intensity. Black cherry, bittersweet chocolate, spice, leather, tobacco and menthol infuse the 2014 with striking midpalate depth, unctuousness and texture. Silky, plush and polished, the 2014 will likely offer a very long window of pure drinking pleasure. It is one of the sexiest, raciest 2014s readers will come across. The blend is 49 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 45 % Merlot and 6 % Petit Verdot aged in 60-65 % new French oak. Antonio Galloni.
JS 95 (2/2017): This really develops wonderfully in the glass starting out earthy with mushrooms and spices and then turns to dark fruit such as blackberries and blackcurrants. Full-bodied, very intense and minerally. Firm and silky tannins and a long, long finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink in 2022.
WA 94 (3/2017): The 2014 Palmer builds on the promise that it showed in barrel. It is clearly a more understated and nuanced Palmer from winemaker Thomas Duroux this year, but a Margaux with exquisite delineation and precision, hints of blackberry, boysenberry and a touch of pencil box. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin. It feels supple and lithe in the mouth. It will not have the depth and power of the subsequent 2015 Palmer, yet the "flow" is very sensual and the Merlot (45% of the blend) just lends it roundness and a caressing texture. What a beautiful Margaux and I bet it will be deceptively long-lived.
WS 94 (3/2017): This has a fresh, energetic feel, with lots of bramble-edged grip pushing the core of raspberry, plum and cherry coulis flavors. The finish is very pure, punctuated by lively floral and iron notes. Flaunts minerality in the end. Best from 2020 through 2035. |

Gevrey Chambertin Les Evocelles |
$259 |

|

WA 90-92 (6/2004): Licorice, tar, roasted black fruits, dark cherries and wax make up the aromatic profile of the dark ruby-colored 2002 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles. Medium to full-bodied, exhibiting superb concentration and depth of fruit, this wine reveals copious quantities of wild herb laced dark fruits in its powerful personality. Its lengthy finish displays loads of wonderfully ripe tannin. Drink it between 2007 and 2015.
VM 89-92 (4/2004): (from a crop level of just 21 hectoliters per hectare, according to Dugat; aging in all new barrels) Deep ruby-red. Explosively fruity nose dominated by black raspberry. Supple, sweet and creamy, with a minerality that frames the wine's dark fruit flavors. Shows terrific inner-palate energy, and the thoroughly ripe tannins that characterize Dugat's 2002s.
BH 88-91 (1/2004): This is more elegant aromatically with a lovely hint of minerality to complement the earthy, slightly gamy notes leading to supple yet incredibly dense, wonderfully pure and beautifully textured flavors plus a powerfully long finish. Fine balance and superb overall quality for a villages level Gevrey. Drink 2009-2017. Outstanding! |

Clos de la Roche Grand Cru |

BH 93 (10/2001): This is a wine that I have enjoyed many times and it is one of those rare grands crus that has shown magnificently from day one and has never missed a beat since. Earthy yet exquisitely complex nose showing more than a trace of secondary aromas. The flavor profile is deep and broad with sap, wet earth, iron, minerals and a pure, intense, terrifically long finish. An Outstanding Clos de la Roche that is enjoyable now though it will continue to hold for many years. Drink 2001-2012.
WA 89 (8/1995): The light to medium ruby-colored Clos de la Roche offers an earthy, mineral, and sweet berry fruit-scented nose. What follows is a wine of moderate constitution, undeniable elegance, and graceful Pinot fruit. Some hard tannin is noticeable in the finish, but it is not cause for concern. This wine should age gracefully for a decade or more, offering complex aromatics, and sweet, gamey Pinot fruit in a medium-bodied format. |

WA 95 (2/2014): My first encounter with the 1991 Grand Echezeaux was a very positive one. It has a heaven-sent bouquet with quite brilliant delineation that really shows off the quality of the terroir – just pure unfettered Pinote. The palate is medium-bodied, supple at first but with admirable concentration: ebullient and vivacious red cherries intermingling with raspberry and a slight ferrous note. Good structure, as usual, with a well-knit and very focused finish that lingers gloriously in the mouth. Bon vin!
BH 94 (5/2019): (opened from personal storage as well as from many other generous enthusiasts). An effusive, elegant and impressively complex nose that is now showing some secondary nuances displays lovely spicy black fruit and warm earth notes that leads to full-bodied, sappy, sweet and intense mouth coating flavors of considerable density and outstanding length. While there does not appear to be any further improvement in the offing, this has only just arrived at its peak and should offer several more decades of enjoyment as the overall impression remains relatively youthful and with plenty of vibrancy . Tasted multiple times over the years with consistent notes. Drink now+.
WS 91 (8/1994): Firm in texture but it promises to become an opulent wine. The spicy, violet-scented black cherry and currant flavors roll across the palate in waves. Finishes ripe, smooth and gracefully balanced with refreshing acidity. 799 cases made. |

Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage a Jacques Perrin
ETA 90-120 Days; No cancellations or returns. This item may be subject to tariffs. |
$305.99 |

WA 99 (12/2020): Red-fruited and garrigue-laden, the nose of the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin is glorious, showing remarkable complexity in its notes of cherries, raspberries and strawberries, all accented by hints of bay leaf, lavender and thyme, plus deeper bass notes of black olives, roasted meat, espresso, star anise and dark chocolate. Full-bodied and intense, it seems to have added structure since last year, with a firm matrix of tannins holding it all together and lingering on the lengthy finish. Put this Mourvèdre-based blend (approximately 60%) away for five or more years; it should drink well for a couple of decades beyond that.
JD 97 (10/2020): Lastly, the 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Hommage A Jacques Perrin showed beautifully, and while it doesn’t hit the heights of the 2001, 2007, 2010, 2016, or 2017, it’s a beautiful expression of this cuvee that deserves a place in the cellar. Revealing a deep purple hue as well as a kaleidoscope-like array of blueberries, charred meat, graphite, ground pepper, violets, and garrigue, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, seamless texture, building tannins, and a magical finish. It doesn’t have the sheer wealth of material found in truly great vintages and stays compact and focused on the palate, but it has beautiful depth of fruit and intensity as well as a seamlessness to its tannins. I suspect it will be relatively approachable by this cuvee’s standards, yet it still has enough structure and tannins to warrant a solid 7-8 years of bottle age. Given its balance, freshness, and purity, it’s going to age beautifully.
JS 96 (4/2021): Very spicy with grilled meat and lots of blackberry and blueberry aromas, together with moss and bark, following through to a full body with round, dusty tannins that are polished and together. Finishes a little tight, suggesting the need to age and open up. Chewy at the end, too. Better after 2024, when it opens. |
