Millbrae Station
I have recently experienced a frustrating conflict with Millbrae Station over a check they cashed and refuse to post in their accounts. Has anyone had similar negative situation?

Latour
Deep Blue Baby. Double decanted, at 9:45AM for service at dinner. Light sediment. Aromas did not wait for the glass, came soaring out of the bottle with the cork. Took one sip before rebottling -- black fruit, cassis essence, tar. Sweet nose, huge body and grip. Going to be great tonight and for many nights to come. At dinner, 8PM, first pour is muted, dark and reflective. Clear coating the glass, but very rich in "Napa quality" fruit (but at 13% alcohol) Tannins are ripe, present but very silky. Huge. Delicious to drink, like a top Cab. Then, an hour and a half later, it's a completely different wine, at another level of complexity. Not richer, but more intense and distinct. Floral, pine forest, mint, lingonberry, an utterly captivating nose that stops you dead. Brighter on the mid palate. Mouth watering finish, goes on for 60+ seconds. Not a classic Latour, but certainly an amazing top Bordeaux. Priced like two top wines, don't drink so fast that you miss that second one! Enjoy now with time, or watch the evolution for decades. (97 pts.)

Almaviva - Puente Alto Red
Tannins are still quite fierce, even after decanting for 90 mins. Fruit starting to fade, leaving behind a somewhat hollow midpalate. An improperly stored bottle, perhaps?

St Innocent - Pinot Noir Seven Springs Vineyard
This is the essence of Oregon pinot. Medium body, light, complex nose of cherry, leather, earth with a medium + finish. On day 2 this put on more weight.

Martinelli - Pinot Noir Moonshine Ranch
Disappointing. The primary flavors have faded with time and it was left with only a strong alcohol flavor.
