WA 99 (4/2019): Deep garnet colored, the 2009 Mouton Rothschild gives up bold earthy notions of underbrush, tilled soil and fungi over a core of crème de cassis, plum preserves and Indian spices with a waft of camphor. Full-bodied with a firm, velvety tannin texture and packed with black fruit preserves and exotic spice layers, it has seamless freshness and a very long, decadently fruited finish.
WS 98 (7/2017): This will always be a great contrast to the dark power of the 2010, sporting lush layers of fig, boysenberry and blackberry confiture, carried by velvety tannins, flowing through a long, anise-, tobacco- and cocoa-fueled finish. Not shy on grip, but much rounder and plusher in feel. Hard to resist now, but there's absolutely no rush.--Non-blind Mouton-Rothschild vertical (March 2017). Best from 2020 through 2050. 16,000 cases made.
JS 98 (2/2019): With a ton of ripe blackcurrant and some bitter chocolate this is a rich and rather opulent wine that still retains a delightful freshness and has a long, positively dry finish. Drink or hold. |

WA 100 (6/2009): One of the monumental wines of the last century is the 1982 Pichon Lalande. Since bottling, it has flirted with perfection, and was a sprinter out of the gate, which gave rise to questions about how quickly it would begin its decline. However, at age 27, it retains all its glossy, rich, flamboyant cassis fruit, chocolaty, berry jam-like notes, and plenty of earthy, foresty flavors. This is a full-bodied, extravagantly rich Pichon Lalande seemingly devoid of acidity and tannin, but the wine is incredibly well-balanced and pure. It is an amazing effort!
NM 98 (11/2012): Tasted at Pebbles/Zachy’s 1982 dinner in Hong Kong. The Pichon-Lalande ’82 almost embarrasses the Pichon Baron ’82. It has a seamless nose of blackberry, cassis, graphite and cedar, again, with an almost sorbet-like freshness and vitality that you want to keep returning to repeatedly. The palate is beautifully defined with filigree tannins and so much freshness and poise, a citric theme from start to finish. There are notes of blackberry, cedar, graphite and a spray tan of glycerine. This is a Pauillac that challenges the First Growths and I would argue with the exception of Latour, is equal to them.
MB [*****] (4/2001): With and without food. Masses of notes - well, 20 to date, most over the past decade: prettily coloured, well-upholstered, delectable. Sweetness and fruit. Being an '82, dry finish. Last noted at the La Reserve tasting of '82's, Just tuck in.
WS 95 (11/1998): A voluptuous red. Very dark ruby-garnet. Aromas of currant, meat and berries. Full-bodied and velvety, with lovely ripe berry and earth and a long, ripe finish of caressing texture. This has always been a great wine. I marvel at it each time I taste it.--1982 Bordeaux horizontal. Drink now.
VM 95 (8/2002): Deep red-ruby color. Liqueur-like aromas of currant, cedar, lead pencil, truffle and smoked meat. Magically sweet and silky in the mouth, with superb depth of flavor and a complete absence of rough edges. A huge wine with utterly compelling sweetness and great terroir character. Powerful if somewhat unrestrained. Finishes ripely tannic, long and sweet. Many tasters still rank this among their two or three favorites of the vintage. Drink now to 2015. |

Le Chambertin Grand Cru |

| BH 91-94 (1/2006): The difference between Chambertin and Clos de Bèze is sharply etched in 2004 as this is bigger, richer and more powerful though less elegant and with a more limited range of spices specifically and aromatic breadth in general. The medium full flavors are tight, precise and very pure with extraordinarily good punch and precision, all wrapped in a firm, dusty and linear finish. I particularly like the mouth coating quality of the flavors as there is ample dry extract here, which serves to perfectly buffer the firmly tannic spine. Outstanding stuff and while not a truly great Rousseau Chambertin, it's knocking on the door. Drink 2014+. Don't miss! |

Barolo Brunate |
$650 |

VM 99 (1/2014): Mysterious and seductive, the 2010 Barolo Brunate lifts from the glass with the most exquisite balsamic-inflected nuances. Freshly cut roses, lavender, mint, violets, licorice and smoke hit the palate in a dark, brooding wine that captures the purest essence of what Barolo is all about. At times delicate, while at others more imposing, the 2010 Brunate expresses a constant push and pull of energy built on tension and contrasts. Put simply, the 2010 Brunate is a deeply moving, emotional wine that anyone who loves Barolo will not want to be without. -
WS 97 (12/2014): (Wine Spectator #51 wine of2014) Rose, peony, cherry and raspberry aromas and flavors are the main themes in this detailed red. Accents of tobacco and leather add depth, keeping this impeccably balanced and harmonious. The finish is long and echoes with notes of fruit, flowers and mineral. Best from 2017 through 2035. 700 cases made.
VM 93-95 (12/2013): Good medium red. Decadent aromas of raspberry and smoke. Concentrated and liqueur-like, offering lovely sweetness but even more depth and backbone than the Cannubi-S. Lorenzo-Ravera. Harmonious acidity and big, dusty, leathery tannins give this powerful Barolo great aging potential. Rinaldi may bottle the Brunate on its own due to the new law that forbids combining two cru names on a label. This reminded me a bit of an Henri Bonneau wine. |

Barolo La Serra |

| VM 97 (3/2010): One of the clear standouts of the vintage, the 1990 Barolo La Serra has aged exceptionally well; in fact it is more vibrant than the 1989 Barolos I tasted alongside it. There is gorgeous purity in a melange of red fruits and flowers that comes together on the palate in stunning style. As beautiful as the 1990 La Serra is today, it clearly has enough freshness to last another ten years. This is an extraodinary, towering Barolo from Roberto Voerzio. Antonio Galloni. |
