2003
Pontet-Canet
This excellent pontet canet is entering to prime drinking. Medium to full body on palate. Great aromas of red fruits as cherry currant and then a sniff of a classic pauillac. This is wine with extraordinary balance, great depth an unremarkable finesse. Getting airing for more than 30 min and will gain complexities, new aromas and more depth even feels heavier....this wine stills years ahead of great drinking. Opens now for freshness and glamour of this all around Pauillac.
NV
Taittinger - Brut La Francaise
Excellent and consistently a great value in NV champagne. Toasty, lively and freshly to enjoy it with lot of options....cheese, healthy dishes or simply alone to cheer up any great conversation.
2007
Muga - Reserva
Good but somehow infant needing of aging. It has excellent purity and fruit quality, excellent cherry flavor with such nice and supple oak integration. It just needs time and definitely will improve and gain complexity. It shall last 10-15 yrs easily.
2006
Shafer - Merlot Napa Valley
Feels dryness in its finish, may past its peak drinking window or wasn't cellar properly
2005
Hanzell - Pinot Noir Estate
Spicy, complex and depth!
Full body Pinot and great force of tour. This isn't your typical sweet and strawberry mind. If you like big, concentrate with depth fruit core along spicy finish. Excellent wine
