BH 91 (10/2015): (from 20 to 25 year old vines planted in deep clay on SO4 rootstock.) This possesses quite an interesting nose as it's comprised by notes of resin, smoke, dried herbs and phenolic nuances (like olive oil) on the mostly white and yellow orchard fruit aromas. There is a textured, even caressing mouth feel to the delicious and generously proportioned medium-bodied flavors that exhibit very good if not truly excellent complexity on the balanced and beautifully persistent finish. Note that this should also drink well young if desired. Drink 2019+. Outstanding! |

BH 91 (10/2015): There is plenty of resin and exotic tea character to the citrus peel and yellow orchard fruit scents. Here too there is a lovely sense of energy to the caressing medium weight flavors that are shaped by a firm acid spine before terminating in an intensely saline, balanced and lingering finish. Drink starting 2019. |

Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee des Cadettes  |

|
|
VM 93+ (2/2003): a blend of 38% syrah, 35% grenache and 27% mourvedre) Full red-ruby. Roasted plum, strawberry, woodsmoke, violet, minerals, baking spices and underbrush on the complex nose; quintessential Chateauneuf aromas, despite the high percentages of syrah and mourvedre. Then sweet and rich but also bright and penetrating, with chewy depths of flavor and superb persistence. This wine's terrific grip suggests it will age slowly and well. WA 93 (2/2003): This cuvee represents the essence of the appellation, and has considerable potential for longevity. The 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee des Cadettes is a blend of 38% Syrah, 35% Grenache, and 27% Mourvedre. This blend was modified from the core blend I tasted last year, and includes the highest percentage of Syrah used in any Cuvee des Cadettes to date. It exhibits a dense ruby/purple color as well as a sweet, concentrated, opulent style with plenty of power, loads of sweet blackberry liqueur notes and a touch of vanilla in the background. Sweet, chewy, plush, sexy, and voluptuous, it may not be the longest-lived example, but it is undeniably charming and disarming. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2016. |

JD 93+ (10/2017): Slightly darker in color, the 2015 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Papet offers gorgeous notes of black cherries and currant fruit intermixed with plenty of tapenade, pepper, garrigue, lots of minerality. It shows the vintage style with its moderate concentration, yet is fine, elegant and silky, and has a beautiful finish. Hide bottles for 4-5 years and enjoy over the following decade. |

WA 97 (8/2014): The 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is even better, with another layer of texture and depth. Chocolate-laced fruits, cured meats, spice, crushed rock and sweet spice all show from this perfumed, up-front, sweetly fruited Chateauneuf, and it still has a core of concentrated fruit and solid tannin structure. I see no reason to hold off, but it too will thrill over the coming 3-5 years. JD 97 (11/2009): A real Wow bottle of wine, the 2000 Domaine de la Janasse Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes is just packed with deep, rich and fresh aromas of blackberry, licorice, meat juice, smoke and graphite. I was literally swooning over the aromatics on the second day and the wine is full bodied with awesome purity, precision and balance. Still very young, this has a long life ahead of it. VM 93 (1/2003): Dark red-ruby. Distinct surmaturite on the nose: roasted red fruits, roasted herbs, chocolate, earth and minerals. Lush, sweet and layered, with classic superripe grenache flavors of chocolate and spice cake. Very smooth wine, finishing with toothcoating tannins and the quintessential warmth of a wine from the South. "In an Outstanding vintage like 2000, I tried to preserve freshness of fruit and finesse, and thus did not try to do a big extraction," noted Sabon. Stephen Tanzer. WS 89 (8/2002): Thick and ripe, with lovely terroir and a fat texture that makes it taste opulent and generous. Full-bodied and aromatically open, with interesting mineral, blood orange, iron and plum notes that linger on the chewy, firm finish. Needs time. Best from 2004 through 2010. 830 cases made. |

Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Alexis Establet (1.5 L)  |

WA 94 (3/2017): I loved the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Alexis Establet, and this 100% old vine Grenache beauty gives up classic notes of roasted herbs, black licorice, loads of sweet Grenache fruit and that savory, meaty characteristic reminiscent of caramelized pan drippings. Full-bodied, layered and decadent, with sweet tannin and no hard edges, it’s beautiful today but will keep for another decade or more. Drink between 2012-2032. JD 93 (5/2010): More serious and deep than the traditional, the 2007 Domaine du Grand Tinel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Alexis Establet sports loads of southern Rhône flare with licorice, earthy, mineral notes and smoke all supported by gorgeous Grenache fruit. Medium to full bodied, fresh, balanced and with a tannic, long finish, this stunning Châteauneuf will drink well over the following 12 to 15 years. Drink between 2010-2025. |

Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde (1.5 L)  |
$350 |

|
|
VM 92 (2/2003): Bright ruby-red. Superripe, expressive aromas of raspberry, coffee, roasted herbs and pepper; shows a slightly porty surmaturite. Rich, round and lush; a wonderfully ripe and full-blown yet fresh wine with substantial, solid tannins and superb persistence. This has a lot of all the key elements, including acidity. A superb vintage for this wine - and there are more than 27,000 cases of this stuff! WA 89 (6/2003): The 1999 Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde (25,000 cases) includes 5% Viognier in the blend. It is a fragrant, soft, medium-bodied effort revealing notes of violets, licorice, and jammy cherry as well as currant fruit presented in a sweet, medium to full-bodied style. Seductive and lush, it is impossible to resist. Consume it over the next 10-12 years. WS 88 (8/2002): Lovely. Both elegant and intense. Medium-bodied, with floral, red berry and mineral notes. Subtle and fruity finish, with smooth tannins, but the intense finish suggests it might improve with age. Drink now through 2006. 25,000 cases made. |

WA 90 (6/1999): The floral, smoky, pear-scented 1997 Pinot Gris Reserve Personnelle has lovely apple, peach, and spice flavors in its plump, medium-bodied character. This wine has excellent grip, balance, and a soft texture. It is lush, flavorful, and immensely pleasing. VM 89 (6/1999): Riper yet more vibrant aromas of peach, mint and roasted nuts. Sweeter and riper in the mouth, but the 10 grams/liter residual sugar are nicely buffered by stronger extract. Very rich but supported by firm acidity. Finishes with subtle finishing flavor and sneaky length. Stephen Tanzer. |

VM 91 (6/2001): Musky aromas of orange oil, minerals and hazelnut. Very ripe, concentrated and deep, but comes across as just off-dry thanks to sound acids and the substantial alcohol. Rather bracing tokay, with the balance and backbone to last well in bottle. The Trimbachs thinned the crop in early August and again in early September, ultimately bringing in just 45 hectoliters per hectare. Stephen Tanzer. WA 90 (12/2001): The 2000 Pinot Gris Reserve Personnelle is a richer, riper, denser, and more powerful version of the Reserve model. Medium to full-bodied and sporting a smoky mineral-scented nose, it coats the palate with velvety-textured layers of white peaches, smoke, minerals, and spices. This is an extremely well-made wine for consuming between 2005 and 2014. |

VM 87 (10/2018): The 1951 Rivesaltes is probably not the best vintage that I have tasted with light peppermint scents on the nose, slightly bitter on the palate with an angular finish just lacking the honeyed tones of other vintages. Tasted with Philippe Gayral. Neal Martin. |
