60 Château Raymond Lafon - Vintage 1986Sauternes12ts, 6sos, 1x12 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"It is hard to believe the 1986 will eclipse the great 1983, but the differences in the two wines are negligible. I do not believe the 1986 makes quite the impact on the palate that the huge, massive 1983 does, but there is a great deal of botrytis, and a profound, penetrating fragrance of cooked pineapple, vanillin, toast, and honeyed peaches. The wine is streamlined, yet also lusciously rich and full-bodied, with crisp, zesty acidity, and a creamy, intense finish."(92pts)12 bottles per lot $500-700

194 Lucia Syrah - Vintage 2014Susan's Hill(Wines Located in New York)"The 2014 Syrah Susan's Hill is a more plush, rounded and soft vintage for this cuvée that offers tons of jammy blackberries, cassis, licorice, chalky minerality and violet aromas and flavors. It has solid underlying tannin, as well as a good mid-palate, and it's a broad, supple and rich Syrah to drink through 2024."(92pts)6 bottles per lot $180-240

333 Aubert Vineyards Chardonnay - Vintage 2008Lauren Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"When I am tasting with Mark Aubert, it always seems to be that his personal favorite is the Lauren Vineyard. The 2008 Chardonnay Lauren Vineyard is a big, dense wine that tastes like concentrated lemon and citrus oils intermixed with quince, honeysuckle and white flowers. Drop in a few pebbles and gravel and you have a full-bodied, beautifully textured, dense, powerful Chardonnay that admirably matches finesse with a larger than life size. This 2008 should drink well for a decade."(97pts)1 magnum per lot $200-260

339 Aubert Vineyards Chardonnay - Vintage 2014Ritchie Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The old vines certainly show well in the 2014 Chardonnay Ritchie, with an almost Alsatian-like petrol nose that is starting to come on. This wine that is full-bodied, with incredible ripeness, purity and overall equilibrium, offers up plenty of tropical fruit and citrus, white peach and pineapple. The wine should drink well for at least another decade."(97pts)2 magnums per lot $500-700

361 Landmark Chardonnay - Vintage 1997Lorenzo Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 1997 Chardonnay Lorenzo Vineyard displays fabulous intensity as well as a textbook, smoky, hazelnut, lemon butter-scented nose with floral scents in the background. On the palate, buttered citrus, minerals, and roasted notes compete with the copious quantities of fruit, glycerin, and heady alcohol. This is a sensational, complex Chardonnay that should drink well for 3-4 years."(93pts)6 bottles per lot $120-160

376 Peter Michael Chardonnay - Vintage 1999Point Rouge(Wines Located in New York)"...is steely, as well as closed and unevolved, but there is no doubting its immense potential. It boasts honeyed citrus, orange, tangerine, liquid mineral, and smoky hazelnut aromas. The liquid minerality evident in the Point Rouge is a prominent characteristic of the better wines from such grand cru Burgundy vineyards as Le Montrachet, Chevalier-Montrachet, and Meursault-Perrières. The finish lasts for more than 40 seconds."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $400-550

377 Ramey Chardonnay - Vintage 2000Hudson Vineyard1nl (Wines Located in New York)"The 730-case cuvée of 2000 Chardonnay Hudson Vineyard is complex and Burgundian-like, with earthy, mineral, hazelnut, tropical fruit, and acacia flower notes. It is full-bodied, with surprisingly high acidity (from the cool climate, French style of northern California's 2000 vintage), and an extremely long finish. It should drink well for 3-5 years."(90pts)6 bottles per lot $220-320

401 Thorn-Clarke Shiraz - Vintage 2007Shotfire Ridge(Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Shotfire Shiraz was aged for 12-18 months in a mix of new and used French and American oak, 40% new. A saturated purple/black in color, this glass-coating effort has a nose of wood smoke, bacon, mineral, and blueberry that leaps from the glass. Rich and intense on the palate, it has layers of flavor, excellent balance, and a pure finish. It way over-delivers for its humble price. Drink it over the next six years."(92pts)7 bottles per lot $220-300

Giving up plenty of blackberry, charcoal, ground herbs, licorice and beef broth-like notes, this puppy offers a mouthful of fruit and texture to go with serious underlying depth and tannin structure. It's certainly one of the top 10 wines or so in the vintage

and will have over two decades of ultimate longevity."(95pts)5 bottles per lot $450-550

497 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2006Riserva, Colombini2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva shows plenty of juiciness in its dark cherries, plush, smoke and licorice. The wine's mid-palate fleshiness and approachable personality should make it accessible in another few years. This isn't a super-complex or structured Riserva, but rather a wine that impresses for its overall balance. Floral notes add a touch of freshness on the finish. The Riserva spent three years in oak, starting with barrels and moving to progressively larger casks. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $800-1000

516 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2004La Poderina2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino presents a remarkable balance of ripe fruit, structure and freshness. Violets, dark cherries, new leather and spices are all woven together in an elegant fabric of notable class. The purity of the fruit is superb and the finish boasts tons of finesse, with silky tannins that frame the close. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2021."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $450-500

520 Saffredi - Vintage 2001Le Pupille2x6 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"Exotic and seductive. Interesting aromas of very ripe plum fruit and hints of rosemary turn to flowers and spices. Full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins and a long orange peel and fruit aftertaste."(94pts WS)12 bottles per lot $1000-1300

522 Nemo - Vintage 2004Monsanto2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"In 2004 the Nemo (Cabernet Sauvignon) shares a lot of stylistic qualities with Il Poggio. It is more varietally expressive than the 2003 Nemo tasted alongside it, with dark cherries, menthol, spices and sweet herbs that flow from its powerful, layered frame. It reveals considerable depth not to mention tons of potential although it comes across as somewhat reticent today. Though not inexpensive in absolute terms I would be hard pressed to name another Tuscan wine that delivers this level of

quality and pure drinking pleasure for the money. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2029."(94pts)12 bottles per lot $400-500

PARCEL LOTS 566-567

566 Villa Fidelia - Vintage 2007Sportoletti2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"The estate's flagship 2007 Villa Fidelia is a serious wine bursting with mocha, roasted coffee beans, French oak, leather, licorice, spices that add considerable complexity to the dark, inky fruit. This super-rich, concentrated red is showing beautifully today, but ideally it needs another few years in bottle. Villa Fidelia is Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon that spent 12 months in 100% new French oak."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $350-420

574 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2004Corte Pavone, Tenute Loacker2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is a fresh, vibrant offering bursting with dark cherries, violets, underbrush, minerals and sweet toasted oak on a medium-bodied frame. The wine reveals terrific balance in an energetic, focused style, with firm yet ripe tannins. The finish is long, clean and refreshing. This is a gorgeous effort from Loacker. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2019."(91pts)12 bottles per lot $400-480

The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, plenty of blackcurrant and raspberry fruit, tensile with a brisk and quite punchy finish. I thought it might be Bruno Clair's Clos Saint Jacques before its identity was revealed - a classy number from the Jadot team. Tasted September 2016."(93pts)1 Methuselah per lot $1100-1500

Coming all from the schist soils of Maury and a blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 10% Carignan that spent 8-12 months in 500-liter barrels and concrete, it possesses a deep purple color to go with savory notes of kirsch and assorted darker berry fruits, pepper, truffle and damp earth.

The palate is medium-bodied with super fine, almost filigree tannin that seem to caress the senses.

Its inky purple color is followed by almost cool climate-like aromas and flavors of black cherries, white pepper, bacon and hints of game.

All Syrah in 2012 and showing the house style perfectly, it has a saturated inky color to go with a forward, sexy, meaty and full-bodied array of creme de cassis, licorice, chocolate and licorice.

1x3 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is surprisingly powerful. It has closed down quite a bit since I tasted it last year, which is a great sign for the future. Black fruit, cassis, licorice and spice box all jump from the glass in an intense Cabernet full of personality. The 2009 is loaded with tremendous potential, but its best days are still at least a few years away. This full-bodied, rich, enveloping wine is striking today. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029."(95+pts)3 bottles per lot $500-700


1x3 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Blackberry jam, black currants, pine, tar, menthol and licorice are some of the many aromas and flavors that take shape as the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon opens up. A picture perfect example of the vintage, the 2010 impresses for its imposing structure and phenomenal overall balance. The powerful, incisive tannins need time to soften, but this is nevertheless a super-impressive wine, even today. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030."(97pts)3 bottles per lot $450-600

"Reduction flattens the fruit but there is good freshness and a lovely inner mouth perfume to the very spicy and mineral-driven big-bodied flavors that are shaped by notably ripe tannins on the backward, structured and very markedly serious finale. I like the balance and the underlying material and provided that you have the patience to wait at least 10 years this should be first-rate."(92-95pts BH)1 Jeroboam per lot $2600-3500

There is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the beautifully delineated medium weight plus flavors that possess terrific focus and plenty of minerality on the strikingly long finish. As is usually the case this is markedly austere at present and will need plenty of cellar time before it's ready for prime time but it should be well worth the wait."(92-95pts BH)3 magnums per lot $1600-2200

4559 J. Christopher Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011Dundee Hills1x6 magnum ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The J. Christopher 2011 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills cuvée unites fruit from, most prominently, Bella Vide, Baptista Maresh, Le Pavillon, and Abby Ridge, being as such a reflection of the prime Worden Hill Road stretch. There are a thousand cases, three times what there were of the previous vintage, marking this bottling as along with the generic Willamette cuvée the core of the J. Christopher program. Almost stridently bright in its evocation of sour cherry, red currant and rhubarb, this is strongly shadowed by high-toned kirsch distillate, lemon oil and sealing wax. An undertone of dried blood and iron-rich tonic of some sort seems to mysteriously creep in here as well. And amazingly, there is a fine sense of textural richness running parallel to all of the energy and tart acidity on display, and a finish of impressive, penetrating persistence as well as sheer refreshment. "I tried out a lot of blends, and tasted the wines for hours and hours each time, trying to get this a bit more forward and approachable," says Somers. "But

I kept coming back to this (blend). And for me this is what Dundee was in 2011, and the whole purpose of my A.V.A. series of wines is to capture the A.V.A. in that vintage." I suspect this will prove deliciously versatile through 2018 if not beyond."(90pts)6 magnums per lot $300-400

Grand Vin, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Another impressive 2011 full of potential, the Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Vin is impeccable in its balance and overall sense of harmony. Violets, dark berries and chocolate wrap around the layered, sensual finish. This is far from an easygoing 2011. It will be interesting to see if the 2011 softens and/or fleshes out over time. The 2011 is 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2031."(92-95pts)1 bottle per lot $160-200


Grand Vin, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Always an exceptional cuvée, there are 900 cases of the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Vin, which is 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot. In 2015 there were 700 cases. This wine is even softer than the 2015, perhaps slightly less concentrated, but still at the top of the qualitative hierarchy in Napa Valley, with its terrific purity, nose of licorice, camphor, forest floor, blackcurrant and cedar wood. It is gorgeously fruited, full-bodied, but super-well-balanced. This is a beauty that can be drunk early, or cellared for another 25-30 years."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $500-650

5148 Campoleone - Vintage 1997Lamborghini(Wines Located in New York)"Yes, as you may have guessed, this 79-acre estate is owned by a member of the luxury car manufacturer. Made with Riccardo Cotarella's consultation, this 1997 is a blend of roughly equal portions of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sangiovese. Picked at high sugars, vinified dry, aged 12 months in new French oak, and bottled with neither fining nor filtration, it is a tour de force in wine-making. Unbelievable concentration combined with uncanny balance and symmetry, as well as a staggering bouquet, flavor depth, and length, make for one of the most extraordinary wine tasting experiences of 1999. The color is a saturated purple. Bursting with black fruits, spice, minerals, and character, this is a prodigious, fabulously intense wine that must be tasted to be believed. Anticipated maturity:

Made from 79% Syrah, 7% Petite Sirah and the rest Grenache, Mourvedre and Roussanne, it offers up full-bodied, decadent, yet incredibly pure notes of creme de cassis, smoked earth, pepper and violets. Seamless and silky, yet with a great mid-palate and notable tannin, it needs 2-3 years of bottle age and will have 15 years or more of overall longevity."(97pts)4 bottles per lot $500-700

5156 Henry's Drive Reserve Shiraz - Vintage 2000Padthaway(Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Shiraz Reserve (a selection of the finest barrels that has been aged in 100% new American oak for 13 months) displays the extraordinary fruit quality achieved by South Australia's top vineyards. The color is opaque blue/purple. The aromatics reveal gorgeous scents of blackberries, blueberries, cassis, pepper, licorice, and new oak. Formidably concentrated, extremely full-bodied and opulent, it is a fabulously concentrated, hedonistic effort. This is what "pleasure" drinking is all about. Forget terroir, and all the pseudo intellectuals with their phony rhetoric about transparency, and criticism of wines that "taste too good." This is uncompromised, unadulterated, pure pleasure. Drink it over the next 7-10 years."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $30-50

5158 Henry's Drive Reserve Shiraz - Vintage 2001Padthaway(Wines Located in New York)"Some might feel the 2001 Shiraz Reserve is too much of a good thing, but it is neither port-like, pruny, nor flat. It is simply crammed with concentrated blackberry and cassis fruit in an obvious but spectacularly textured style. It possesses considerable nuances. Loaded and thick, with low acidity and huge amounts of tannin, all concealed by lavish quantities of fruit and extract, this stunning wine can be drunk now, but should age effortlessly for 7-10 years, possibly longer. No one really knows for sure given the fact that these are young vines and moderately high tonnage."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $50-60

5196 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2001Vieilles Vignes, Domaine de la Vieille Julienne6vlbsl, 1x6 bottle owc, no top lid (Wines Located in New York)"...its dense purple color is accompanied by gorgeous aromas of blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, minerals, and kirsch. As it sits in the glass, notions of pepper and spice also emerge from this unevolved, backward Châteauneuf. It has high levels of extract and richness as well as formidable tannin."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $600-800

5225 Saxum Red - Vintage 2014G2(Wines Located in New York)"Tasted just after bottling and a final blend of 58% Mourvedre and 42% Grenache, the 2014 G2 Vineyard comes from a site just to the southeast of James Berry (this was formerly known as Gravity Hills Vineyard) that was planted in the late 1990s. The first release from Justin from this site, this beauty sports a deep ruby/purple color as well as a gorgeous, layered bouquet of cured meats, spice, mulled dark fruits, graphite and loads of this chalky minerality that also emerges on the palate. Rich, full-bodied, ultra-pure and impeccably balanced, this seamless, full-bore beauty will need 2-3 years to really shine, and keep for a decade or more after that."(97pts)2 bottles per lot $240-320

Nevertheless, it is a serious effort displaying a deep purple color along with aromas of chocolate, mint, blackberries, and cassis. Revealing good delineation along with plenty of power, tannin, and depth, it should drink well for 10-15 years. That's an advantage over its Shotfire Ridge, Terra Barossa, and Milton Park siblings. Readers who missed the reviews in issue #147 should realize that Thorn-Clarke produces a bevy of extraordinary bargains."(92pts)12 bottles per lot $400-600

No doubt there is significant tannin lurking beneath the layers of fat and glycerin. This is a terrific Brunello di Montalcino for drinking over the next 20 years."(94pts)3 bottles per lot $450-600

5525 Corton - Vintage 2013Clos des Cortons, Faiveley(Wines Located in New York)"A pretty red, this features wild strawberry and cherry

5526 Mazis Chambertin - Vintage 2014Faiveley(Wines Located in New York)"Wonderful.

5527 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2013J.

5529 Clos St. Denis - Vintage 2012Lignier-Michelot(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Clos Saint Denis Grand Cru, 100% whole cluster in one used barrel, has an intriguing earthy, tobacco-tinged bouquet: broody and more introverted than Virgile's other crus at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with a spicy, vibrant opening. There is good depth here, much more grip and structure than the Charmes-Chambertin with a spicy, tense finish that lingers long in the mouth. This is a superb Clos Saint Denis."(93-95pts)3 bottles per lot $650-850

5532 Corton - Vintage 2014Clos Rognet, Méo-Camuzet(Wines Located in New York)"The 2014 Corton Clos Rognet Grand Cru, which has been part of the domaine since the 1930s and according to Jean-Nicolas Méo was picked a little earlier than usual, has a detailed and mineral-driven bouquet that unfolds nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied

with fine tannin, crisp and minerally, fine definition with a sustained, lightly spiced finish. Vibrant and tensile, this is a superb offering from the domaine and is highly recommended."(92-94pts)1 bottle per lot $180-240

5534 Chambolle Musigny - Vintage 2014Pousse d'Or1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2014 Chambolle Musigny Village comes from seven lieux-dits that total 1.41 hectares of vine. It has a rather conservative nose, earthy compared to others, more Morey-like in style than Chambolle -- a leitmotif of this appellation, perhaps. The palate is structured with grippy, slightly chalky tannin. It feels quite compact in the mouth, masculine and a touch austere, though there is sufficient freshness on the finish to suggest that it will drink well over the next 5-6 years."(86-88pts)12 bottles per lot $700-900

5535 Volnay - Vintage 2014Clos des 60 Ouvrees, Pousse d'Or(Wines Located in New York)"There is a wonderfully refined and ultra-pure mouth feel to the well-delineated and concentrated middle weight flavors that are almost pungently stony, all wrapped in an intense and focused yet lacy finale that exhibits just a hint of youthful austerity.

I see a floral character that might be attributed to the Garnacha, but whatever it is, this is a wine of marked personality, combining ripe and elegant aromas and flavors with the attractive suppleness of the blueberries, meaty tannins and delicate aromas of violets and dry roses. The palate shows very good balance and stuffing, with very fine, sophisticated tannins. A great, different Ribera. Bravo! Drink 2014-2021."(94pts)4 bottles per lot $350-500

5709 Paul Hobbs Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2014Nathan Coombs1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Having tasted this wine since the inaugural 2012 vintage, one of the aspects I most love about this vineyard is how clearly it stands stylistically apart from Paul Hobbs' St. Helena and Oakville single-vineyard wines with red fruits entering the mélange, this incredible energy plus a very particular tannin texture and yet the quality is right up there on the same par. Containing a dollop (2%) of Cabernet Franc, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate has a deep garnet-purple color and a vibrant nose of red currant and red plum compote, blackberry preserves and mulberries with underlying suggestions of garrigue, Mediterranean herbs, damp earth, lavender and underbrush. Medium to full-bodied, the tannins on this wine are oh-so-finely pixelated, with a refreshing backbone cutting through the intense flavor layers, finishing with an invigorating lift. I could sit down and drink this right now, but it promises much more to come with 10-15 years cellaring and should hold considerably longer."(97+pts)6 bottles per lot $1400-1800

This is a 4-acre vineyard on the red soil hillsides, just below Dalla Valle in the Oakville corridor. This is a sexy, beautiful, fragrant wine with plenty of scorched earth, blackcurrants and licorice, but copious quantities of blackberry and blackcurrant fruit.

5741 Warre's Tawny Port - Vintage NV20 Year, Otima2ts (Wines Located in New York)"The NV Otima 20 Year Old Tawny Port was tasted from a typical 500ml bottle, this bottling from 2014. Symington/Warre's also makes a "regular" 20-year-old tawny (to which I would give the nod), but they are intended to be very different styles. Rui Ribeiro at Symington Family Estates said to me: "They are two different wines, coming from different blends..Different lot selections and different barrels. We have a specific aging lot for Otima which differs from the normal Warre tawny lot...The Warre's 20YO tawny is a classic profile, showing a bit more nuttiness and wood notes, warmer palate perception (comparing with OT20). OTIMA 20 is probably the most elegant wine in the category, evident freshness on the nose, really elegant palate, great acidity and a completely clean and integrated finish." That is a pretty good summary, for better or worse. This is indeed remarkably elegant and refreshing for a 20, dancing on the palate with light footsteps. That also means it is far better on the nose than the palate, though. It seems sunny and bright, but it doesn't show the concentration of flavor, tension on the finish or even the intense aromatics that the best 20s can. For many, it will be just what they want, something fresh and lively, but it is a bit underwhelming. That said, it certainly enlivens the palate and it is remarkably easy and fun to drink. Plus, after it was open for a few days (who says they don't change?), it began to show more of those classic, mature Tawny nuances, certainly more than were there initially. Take note, though: it is still Port, there is a lot of alcohol, even if it controls the perceptible spirit influence very well, and it will knock you on your butt if you drink too much. You'll want to do exactly that it goes down easy and tastes great."(90pts)

5763 Château Talbot - Vintage 1982St. Julients, lbsl, scl, spc (Wines Located in New York)"Along with the 1986, the 1982 is one of the greatest Talbots ever made. Far more evolved than its stablemate, Gruaud Larose, it exhibits a dense garnet color to the rim along with a huge, sweet, exotic nose of charcoal, beef blood, licorice, herbs, and black fruits. A hint of figs suggests borderline overripeness, but the wine remains fleshy and full-bodied with sweet tannin and an expansive, heady mouthfeel. While fully mature, it should hold for another decade. Release price: ($115.00/case)"(95pts)1 bottle per lot $200-280

The Tortoniano deftly balances richness and concentration with what is essentially a fairly medium-bodied style. The sweet, perfumed fruit carries the wine effortlessly through the soft, enveloping finish. This is a beautiful effort from Chiarlo.

5809 Cabreo - Vintage 2006Il Borgo, Tenuta del Cabreo(Wines Located in New York)"Cabreo's 2006 Il Borgo (70% Sangiovese, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon) offers gorgeous purity in its bright red fruit, flowers and spices. The wine reveals outstanding depth and length in a mid-weight style, with a refined, poised finish and lovely overall balance. Another year or so in bottle should help smooth the tannins, but in this vintage the French oak (30% new) seems much better integrated than it has been in the past. This is a commendable effort from the Folonari family. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2021."(90pts)7 bottles per lot $220-300

5844 Gandona Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2012vlbsl (Wines Located in New York)"The finest wine to date appears to be the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill, a sensational example of Pritchard Hill Cabernet. Its opaque purple color is followed by notes of pen ink, camphor, charcoal, blackberries and black currants. Dense, rich and built like a skyscraper with a terrific mouthfeel and purity as well as a full-bodied, moderately tannic, exuberant and convincing finish, it should age effortlessly for 20-30 years."(94-96pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

This was a good example but not in the same class as that. It commences well on the nose, still fresh and tensile with graphite infusing the black fruit that maybe do not have as much freshness and precision as an impeccable bottle might convey. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresh line of acidity, decayed red berry fruit, a touch of black cherry, cedar and truffle, with smoke toward the finish that is dense and solid. It is a very fine 1961 Left Bank that is probably overlooked, though this example just dipped before the finish line. Tasted April 2016."(92pts)3 half-bottles per lot $240-320

The wine reveals the classic cassis, mineral, weedy tobacco, spicy nose of a top Pauillac. Full-bodied, concentrated, and close to full maturity, it is a flavorful, expansive, chewy wine. Although it has been distressingly inconsistent in previous tastings, I am convinced the off bottles had been cooked - undoubtedly by exposure to high temperatures.

The Schraders have a long-term lease on 5 acres, which, added to their 16 acres of Beckstoffer To Kalon and 5 acres of Beckstoffer George III, gives them some pretty serious leases on some of the finest terroirs in Napa Valley. The softest wine of this portfolio, there are 350 cases of the 2011 LPV, far less than the 600 cases produced in 2012. Given its warm micro-climated, these grapes were picked before the rains descended. The wine exhibits a dark ruby/purple color, supple tannins, and sweet red and black currants, licorice, Christmas fruitcake, incense and forest floor.

It is not a far-fetched comparison to call this Napa Valley Cheval Blanc, although that wine is a nearly equal part blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon rather than Cabernet Franc and Merlot.

blackberry fruit intermixed with creme de cassis, lead pencil shavings, acacia flowers, bouquet garni, meat and crushed rocks.

It is a bizarre vintage, but give me this kind of eccentricity every year and I would be set for life. The gigantic dark ruby/purple-colored 1997 Barolo Bussia Soprana possesses lots of structure, muscle, and tannin. It comes across as a traditionally made Barolo with mouth-searing tannin, as well as huge quantities of glycerin, black raspberry and cherry liqueur-like fruit, a skyscraper-like structure, and a finish that lasts for 15+ seconds.

The wine is rich and full-bodied, with excellent definition, and a powerful, chewy finish. The tannin is present, but it is riper and better integrated than in the 1992. This wine will be accessible young, but capable of lasting for 15 years. Merryvale's finest red wine is their proprietary wine called Profile. While the blend varies from year to year, most vintages contain between 30%-40% Merlot, about 10% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon. This is another wine that seems to have gotten richer and more complex since the early 1990s."(90pts)3 bottles per lot $150-200

A blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, this is a massive effort, but it is the first Clos de Sarpe that can be drunk young with some degree of pleasure. It exhibits an opaque purple color, but the tannins are sweet, and not overwhelming, and the wine has low acidity as well as oodles of blackberry and sweet kirsch-like fruit intermixed with hints of minerality and spicy oak.

The oak component is virtually undetectable as it is concealed by the wine's wealth of fruit and extraordinary concentration. It should drink well for 10-12 years.

A fresh, detailed and more elegant example of the cuvée, it offers gorgeous notes of ripe berry fruit, loads of exotic spice, violets, pepper and lavender to go with a full-bodied, beautifully pure and layered profile on the palate. It's no blockbuster, but has loads of energy and tension, as well as class and refinement.

Suffice it to say that this is Umbria's prototypical Sangiovese/Merlot blend, an intense dark ruby with a potent, spicy, red currant, raspberry, and plum nose, a sumptuous texture

with superior volume, velvet, and sweetness, and exceptional length, grip, and sensuality on the close. Better this 2001 or the equally formidable 1999?

The palate is smooth and silky, cloaking the tannic frame of this GPL so that you barely notice it. But that will stand it in good stead for the long-term, the cornerstone of all great wines from this estate. Then there is that hint of spice on the aftertaste the show ain't over yet. Served alongside a magnum of Pichon Baron 2000, I would say that at the moment, it does not quite possess the same level of precision. However, it remains a magnificent Pauillac to cherish long-term.

7807 Barolo - Vintage 1971G. Conternostl, scl, fvl, excellent color (Wines Located in New York)"There was another part to this parcel, about 20 (yes, twenty) cases of 1971 G. Conterno Barolo Riserva. The 1971 had a spinier nose with lots of minerals and t 'n a, a more gravelly and slaty edge with more minerals. There was still deep and nutty fruit behind those, and some signature chocolaty richness. That chocolate quality spread like Nutella in the mouth, as did flavors of tar and tobacco. There were lots of leathery fruit flavors. Rob called it 'straight down the middle' and found it on the bottom half of excellence rather than the top like I did (ie, 93 vs. 94 points or 4 stars vs. 4+ stars)."(94pts JK)1 bottle per lot $500-700

Deep ruby/purple with a sensational nose of crushed rock/wet steel interwoven with blueberry liqueur, sweet black currants and black cherries, incense, and forest flora, it seems to be both powerful and elegant at the same time, with stunning purity, texture, and length, but it never comes across as heavy despite the rather lofty alcohol.

Even with the presence of 20% Syrah and 20% Mourvedre, this Grenache-based blend comes across as lighter than the Garnacha. Dark red cherries, plums and smoke flow through to the intense, layered finish. The Grenache and Syrah components were raised in French oak puncheons (50% new), while the Mourvedre was fermented with 50% whole clusters and aged in standard French oak barrels.

Armed with huge richness, this deep effort has superb purity, intensity, and length. While it is somewhat heavy, like many 2003 high end German late harvest wines, it appears to have enough balancing acidity to provide lift. Projected maturity: 2008-2030 (readers should note that a Gold Cap version of this wine exists and was tasted it sells for $500 per half-bottle but it was so raisiny, so heavy, as well as so dominated by caramel and molasses that it is not being reviewed)."(94pts)6 bottles per lot $350-480

There are no signs of greenness or hard edges anywhere in sight, yet the wine retains the mid-weight structure that differentiates Gattinara from other Nebbioli.

This vintage shows extra heft and dimension that allows the wine to spread smoothly over the palate. Merlot is blended with Cabernets Franc and Sauvignon, and the taste profile in the 2012 vintage definitely favors the Merlot component. Soft cherry and dark berry segue to spice and moist tobacco. The structure of the two Cabernet varieties shows in the mouth where the wine is elegant and tight. It needs more time for bottle evolution."(94pts)6 bottles per lot $300-400

8063 Aglianico - Vintage 2009Fidelis, Cantina del Taburno(Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 Aglianico Fidelis is a tremendous wine for the money. Juicy red berries, flowers, and crushed rocks explode from the glass in this racy, sleek Agliancio. Readers won't find a ton of varietal character or complexity, but instead a wine built on racy, exuberant fruit. Varietal notes of smoke, incense and game add nuance on the finish, but the 2009 is mostly about overt fruit. This is another terrific choice for near-term drinking.

This deep, concentrated Brunello is incredibly fresh and vibrant. Although the sweet tannins make the wine very accessible at this stage, readers in search of a more complex drinking experience will want to give this Brunello a few years in bottle. The 2004 Brunello from Castelgiocondo is a lovely effort from the Frescobaldi family and one of the finest vintages to be produced at the property.

8077 Barolo - Vintage 2010Bricco Boschis, Cavallotto(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Barolo Bricco Boschis is the flagship wine from this historic estate in Castiglione Falletto. The personality here is dark and brooding with savory aromas of cured meat and smoked bacon in a leading role. The intensity is bright and vibrant and the longer you contemplate the wine, the more it offers. Following a few swirls of the glass, you encounter sweet cherry, white almond skin, licorice and pressed rose. Still young, the wine shows enormous complexity. Its balanced structure and acidity would pair next to succulent lamb chops or any number of sophisticated meat recipes. Drink: 2016-2026."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $500-700

8084 Barolo - Vintage 1999Bricco Rocche Prapo, Ceretto(Wines Located in New York)"The nose of the 1999 Barolo Prapo, a deep garnet, is dominated by asphalt and anisette aromas with the vanilla and mocha of the oak more in the background. Long, firm, and intense in flavor, still slightly tannic, it will need some time to round off the slight graininess of its texture. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2018."(90pts)6 bottles per lot $420-600

8085 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2006Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is an attractive entry-level wine. Dark red berries, crushed flowers, licorice and mint are some of the nuances that emerge from this fleshy, mid-weight offering. The aromas and flavors are decidedly on the ripe side of the spectrum in the racy 2006, but the intensity of the fruit covers the tannins nicely, making this an attractive wine for near-term pleasure. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2021."(90pts)


8090 Barolo - Vintage 1989Vigna del Gris, Conterno-Fantino3bn (Wines Located in New York)"The 1989 Barolo Vigna del Gris offers copious quantities of sweet, jammy, black-cherry fruit intermingled with aromas of herbs, tar, and smoke. The wine is full-bodied, with excellent definition, richness, and purity of fruit. The style falls somewhere between the rustic traditionalists and the small barrique-aged modernists.

Full-bodied, with terrific purity, a multilayered texture, and surprising freshness for a wine of such depth, it can be drunk young, or cellared for 10-15 years. For technicians who care about such things, it has a whopping 37 grams per liter of dry extract."(95pts)6 bottles per lot $180-240

8105 Montiano - Vintage 2012Lazio, Falesco(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Montiano sports a new design and front label that is cleaner and minimalist in personality. That doesn't change the fact that this is one of the most historic Merlot-based wines in Italy that put Lazio wines on the map. Riccardo Cotarella had set his sights on great Merlot from his home turf, that lies on the Lazio and Umbria border in central Italy. This vintage is especially plump and opulent and signals a slight evolution in the winemaking style of this historic wine. It feels more elegant and streamlined thanks to the purity of its aromas. Black cherry, blackberry, Indian spice, dark chocolate and pressed rose petal come together in seamless fashion."(93pts)6 bottles per lot $180-240

Black cherries, tar, asphalt and menthol are some of the nuances that emerge from this vibrant, tightly coiled Serpico.

its voluptuous, harmonious fruit, with no hard edges and an expansive, textured personality that conquers both the palate and intellect. Here, too, the oak is very well integrated, while the wine's balance and overall sense of harmony are nothing short of stunning. This is one of the very finest vintages of Cannubi Boschis.

8160 Campoleone - Vintage 2006Lamborghini1x6 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"Dark cherries, smoke, licorice and earthiness are some of the nuances that emerge from 2006 Campoleone, a blend of Sangiovese and Merlot that spent 12 months in French oak. This is a decidedly dark, brooding red from Lamborghini. As good as it is, I can't help feeling that the wine is trapped by excessive concentration and new oak. With a lighter touch this could be a truly important, benchmark wine for Umbria. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021."(91pts)6 bottles per lot $240-350

The wine oozes darkness and richness, but then surprises you with a playful touch of sweet cherry on the finish. The structure and intensity are so big right now, you really need to give this wine more time. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2027."(94+pts)3 magnums per lot $240-320

8218 Barbaresco - Vintage 2008Curra, Sottimano1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"Sottimano has decided to give the 2008 Barbaresco Curra another year in bottle before releasing the wine. I understand why. The Curra is a huge Barbaresco. An exotic bouquet of tobacco, smoke, tar and incense leads to an intense core of fruit. This is easily one of the most structured wines of the vintage. It shows tremendous depth, detail and thrust from start to finish. The fruit covers every inch of the palate in this dramatic Barbaresco. Sweet floral notes typical of Curra add a measure of lift on the finish, but this remains a big, big wine in need of considerable bottle age.

Sweet black cherries, tobacco, smoke, scorched earth and tar all explode from the glass. Despite its textural richness, the 2007 remains mid-

weight and gracious for the year. At times the 2007 is quite feminine, while at other moments its more virile side comes through, creating contrasts that are intriguing to follow. Caparzo has done a terrific job with their 2007 Riserva. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2022."(92pts)6 bottles per lot $350-480

A very great wine, very much in the mold of its French cousin, Château Beaucastel, the wine has a saturated ruby/purple color and a gorgeous nose of melted licorice, charcoal, blueberry, and blackberries intermixed with freshly sliced mushrooms, tree bark, and pepper. Spicy, dense, full-bodied, and extraordinarily complex, yet at the same time well-delineated and fresh, it should drink well for 10-15+ years."(95pts)3 magnums per lot $350-480

It possesses great intensity along with a wealth of fruit and glycerin covering substantial tannin, and a spectacular finish that lasts over a minute.

8377 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2005Charles Giraud Collection, Domaine St. Prefert1tl, 2bsl (Wines Located in New York)"One of the strongest wines in the vintage, Ferrando's 2005 Châteauneuf du Pape Collection Charles Giraud continues to show brilliantly, and has rated in the upper 90s every time I've had it in the past 2-3 years. Made from 60% Grenache and 40% Mourvèdre that comes from a small plot in the Serres lieu-dit and a small part of the Cristia lieu-dit, it offers a beefy, meaty array of dark fruits, cured meats, chocolate and tapenade to go with a full-bodied, powerful, chewy style on the palate. It's a big, full-flavored Châteauneuf du Pape that will continue to knock it out of the park for another 10-15 years."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $90-120

Pure, fullbodied, rich, but with some tannin still to shed, this is a very promising, extremely pure, full-bodied Châteauneuf du Pape that should turn into one of the longest-lived wines of the vintage."(97+pts)2 bottles per lot $400-500

8413 Irpinia Rosso - Vintage 2001Serpico, Feudi Di San Gregorio2x1 magnum owc's (Wines Located in New York)"The 2001 Serpico is another wine that appears to need more bottle age. Today it is in an in-between stage where the fruit is no longer primary but the tertiary notes aren't fully developed either. The 2001 is a powerful Serpico with impressive tannic clout that will require further cellaring to soften. With time, hints of wild cherries, herbs, chocolate and leather emerge but only with great reluctance. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023."(92+pts)2 magnums per lot $160-220

8417 Terra di Lavoro - Vintage 2007Galardi2x1 magnum owc's (Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Terra di Lavoro emerges from the glass with an array of floral red fruit, spices, berries and minerals. It is an especially forward, opulent Terra di Lavoro bursting with exuberance. There is something viscerally thrilling about the 2007, perhaps because Terra di Lavoro is typically so reticent when it is young. Not here. This is an open, wonderfully expressive vintage. The only thing left to wonder is if the wine will ever shut down in bottle. For now, readers who want to understand what makes Terra di Lavoro such a pedigreed wine may want to start here. Readers who prefer a firmer style will likely gravitate towards the 2006 or 2008, but this is a flat-out great bottle of wine with an explosive personality that carries through to the long, intensely satisfying finish. In 2007 the weather was consistently hot, but the 2007 doesn't show the jamminess of the 2003 nor the sheer power of the 2001.

8422 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2006Pian Dell'Orino(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino emerges from the glass with warm, seductive black cherries, flowers, tobacco, minerals and underbrush. The interplay between the richness of the fruit and a classic sense of structure is totally spellbinding in this mysterious, dark Brunello. I love the element of sensuality here.

8468 Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2013CCS(Wines Located in New York)"There is something ethereal about the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon CCS, a wine that I tend to give more perfect scores to than of the other Schrader offerings. This is clone 4 from a special block of the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, and it always seems to have these incredible, explosive aromatics ranging from blueberry to blackberry to cassis to spring flowers and lead pencil shavings. It's always one of the more seductive wines early on, with sweet, velvety tannins, a plush, succulent mouthfeel, full-bodied splendor and majestiCôtexture.

8470 Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2011LPV(Wines Located in New York)"...the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard LPV, which comes from clone 337 of the Las Piedras site. This is a west side valley floor vineyard with a foundation of alluvial river pebbles and rocks as well as gravelly loam. The Schraders have a long-term lease on 5 acres, which, added to their 16 acres of Beckstoffer To Kalon and 5 acres of Beckstoffer George III, gives them some pretty serious leases on some of the finest terroirs in Napa Valley. The softest wine of this portfolio, there are 350 cases of the 2011 LPV, far less than the 600 cases produced in 2012. Given its warm micro-climated, these grapes were picked before the rains descended. The wine exhibits a dark ruby/purple color, supple tannins, and sweet red and black currants, licorice, Christmas fruitcake, incense and forest floor. This beautiful, medium-bodied 2011 is already complex and evolved."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $220-300

8476 Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2013RBS(Wines Located in New York)"The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon RBS, also from clone 337, but in this case from the Beckstoffer To Kalon

Vineyard, shows an absolutely perfect 100-point nose of red, black and blue fruits, charcoal, graphite and forest floor. It hits the palate with a seamless integration of wood, tannin, acidity and alcohol and has tremendous opulence and palate presence in its full-bodied, long finish. On aromatics alone, it rates a perfect score, but I ended up being somewhat conservative I suppose. It should drink well for three decades as well."(98pts)3 bottles per lot $750-1000

8491 Alban Vineyards Syrah - Vintage 2012Patrina(Wines Located in New York)"One of the best entry-level wines out there is John's 2012 Syrah Patrina, and it competes with many top cuvées. All Syrah in 2012 and showing the house style perfectly, it has a saturated inky color to go with a forward, sexy, meaty and full-bodied array of creme de cassis, licorice, chocolate and licorice. Showing how good 2012 was for this estate, it's a rock-star wine to enjoy while you wait for his 2010s and 2011s to come around."(94pts)6 bottles per lot $240-320

Aged 22 months in two-thirds new French oak, it trumps most estates grand vin. Showing the forward, plush, sweetly fruited style of all of the 2013s here, with notes of smoked meats, violets, caramelized black cherries and cassis, with its oak component pushed all the way into the background, drink this full-bodied, pure, seamless Syrah through 2023."(94pts)12 bottles per lot $480-650

Possessing the telltale Iodine and seaweed character this cuvée always shows, it has lots of darker fruits, smoked herbs, black olive and a touch of floral aromas and flavors.

firm and structured, it's a serious, age-worthy wine from John that should be forgotten for 4-5 years."(95+pts)2 magnums per lot $350-500

It shows remarkable intensity and fabulous balance. Bone Rock is made from the first blocks planted in the James Berry vineyard and is predominantly Syrah, while the James Berry Vineyard (the wine) is Grenache focused. In 2009 the blend was 57% Syrah, 31% Mourvedre and 12% Grenache. The Syrah component was vinified with 100% stems and saw a maceration lasting 50 days. The wine was aged in 60% new oak. Smith bottled the 2009 in May 2011, earlier than the norm (around 30 months), as he wanted to preserve the freshness he had in the tannins. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021."(94pts)1 magnum per lot $200-280

8516 Saxum Red - Vintage 2012Booker Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"A candidate for the wine of the vintage, the 2012 Booker Vineyard is a blend of 73% Syrah and 27%

Mourvedre that was aged 20-26 months in 60% new French oak. It's a classic expression of the vineyard and offers up lots of smoked meats, cracked pepper, wild herbs and tons of dark fruit. Big, full-bodied, thick and chewy, it has gorgeous purity and sweetness of fruit. It shows surprising finesse and elegance with time in the glass, but make no mistake, it's a big, rich and decadent beauty that will benefit from short-term cellaring and age for 15+ years."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $240-320

8519 Saxum Red - Vintage 2008Broken Stones(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Broken Stones (79% Syrah, 13% Grenache, and the rest Mourvedre) has a bluish purple color to the rim, with the classic nose of camphor, charcoal, black currant, and blackberry with hints of licorice and smoke. This intense wine displays great fruit, some structure, and a beautifully seamless texture. It is more evolved and open than the 2007 was at the same time, and just slightly less profound. It should drink nicely for at least a decade."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $180-240

8520 Saxum Red - Vintage 2010Broken Stones(Wines Located in New York)"...a gorgeously pure array of black raspberry, charcoal, licorice, lavender, and assorted floral qualities on the nose. This flows to a full-bodied, deft, and elegant palate that has no hard edges, a weightless feel, and masses of fine, yet firm tannin on the finish."(96pts)1 magnum per lot $180-240


8522 Saxum Red - Vintage 2012Broken Stones(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Syrah Broken Stones is a beauty. Made from 79% Syrah, 7% Petite Sirah and the rest Grenache, Mourvedre and Roussanne, it offers up full-bodied, decadent, yet incredibly pure notes of creme de cassis, smoked earth, pepper and violets. Seamless and silky, yet with a great mid-palate and notable tannin, it needs 2-3 years of bottle age and will have 15 years or more

of overall longevity."(97pts)4 bottles per lot $280-400

8523 Saxum Red - Vintage 2013Broken Stones(Wines Located in New York)"Incorporating more Petite Sirah than normal, and the first time there's been less than 50% Syrah, the 2013 Syrah Broken Stones is made from 48% Syrah, 22% Petite Sirah, 17% Grenache, 6% Mourvedre the rest Tempranillo and Roussanne. Its deep, inky color is followed by a structured, seriously mineral-laced and full-bodied red that offers lots of fruit (cassis, black cherries and raspberries), smoked earth and chocolate aromas and flavors. The tannin is front and center, yet they're beautifully ripe and polished. Give bottles 2-3 years and enjoy through 2028"(96pts)1 magnum per lot $160-220

8525 Saxum Red - Vintage 2014Broken Stones(Wines Located in New York)"Blended of 41% Syrah, 13% Mourvèdre, 19% Grenache, 16% Petite Sirah, 8% Tempranillo and 3% Roussanne, the 2014 Broken Stones has a deep garnet-purple color and exuberant black and blue fruit notes with suggestions of raspberry pie, potpourri, spice cake and fallen leaves, plus a waft of chocolate box. Full-bodied and full-on gorgeous, it fills the palate with soft, sexy fruit and plush tannins, finishing on a spicy note."(95pts)1 magnum per lot $160-220


8527 Saxum Red - Vintage 2008Heart Stone Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Heart Stone, a blend of 47% Syrah, 39% Grenache, and 14% Mourvedre, is very elegant but evolved and supple, with beautiful kirsch and black currant fruit intermixed with licorice, camphor, pepper, and a hint of lavender. More evolved than the 2007 was at a similar stage, but with slightly lower alcohols, its velvety tannins stand out in this rich, plush, opulent, voluptuously textured wine. Drink it over the next 7-10 years."(93pts)4 bottles per lot $350-480

8529 Saxum Red - Vintage 2011Heart Stone Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2011 Heart Stone Vineyard is a blend of 58% Syrah, 37% Grenache and 5% Mourvedre that was brought up in mostly concrete, with 20% in puncheons. Showing beautifully from barrel, it didn't disappoint from bottle and has a perfumed, elegant feel to its purple fruits, lavender, violets, white pepper and underbrush-like aromas and flavors. The whole cluster inclusion shows here, yet it has fantastic purity, fine tannin and integrated acidity. Give it another year in the cellar and enjoy bottles through 2025."(95pts)


8530 Saxum Red - Vintage 2012Heart Stone Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Heart Stone Vineyard is 43% Syrah, 41% Grenache and 16% Mourvedre that was aged mostly in concrete (the '11 was aged 100% in concrete) yet also saw some new and neutral puncheons. Fermented with 40% whole clusters, it's a big, burly effort that has beautiful creme de cassis, black raspberry, crushed violets, vanilla bean and exotic flower-like qualities all emerging from the glass. It too has a structured feel, with high, yet ripe tannin, so short-term cellaring is also advised here."(96pts)3 bottles per lot $240-320

8531 Saxum Red - Vintage 2013Heart Stone Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Checking in as a final blend of 54% Syrah, 35% Grenache and 11% Mourvedre, the 2013 Heart Stone Vineyard shows the class and purity of the vintage in its complex, floral-laced aromas of dark fruits, spice and minerality. Full-bodied, seamless and silky, with no hard edges and terrific purity, it's another 2013 from Smith that will open up with another year in bottle."(95pts)4 bottles per lot $320-420

8533 Saxum Red - Vintage 2011James Berry Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Reminding me of a top 2010 Châteauneuf du Pape (the 2010 Raymond Usseglio cuvée Imperiale to be exact), the 2011 James Berry Vineyard is a blend of 69% Grenache, 13% Mourvedre, 13% Syrah, 2% Counoise, and a splash of Roussanne, that was aged in a combination of concrete (Grenache) and larger oak puncheons. A fresh, detailed and more elegant example of the cuvée, it offers gorgeous notes of ripe berry fruit, loads of exotic spice, violets, pepper and lavender to go with a full-bodied, beautifully pure and layered profile on the palate. It's no blockbuster, but has loads of energy and tension, as well as class and refinement. Give it 2-3 years in the cellar and enjoy it over the following decade or longer."(96+pts)1 magnum per lot $200-260

8535 Saxum Red - Vintage 2012Terry Hoage Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Just bottled five weeks ago, the 2012 Terry Hoage Vineyard (330 cases) is a thrilling blend of 51% Syrah, 31% Grenache and 18 % Mourvedre. It has an up front approachable and sexy feel in its cherry blossom and black raspberry fruit, crushed flowers and spice aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, concentrated and with sweet tannin, it's the most ready-to-go in the lineup, yet will still have 10-12 years of longevity."(97pts)3 bottles per lot $240-320

8536 Saxum Red - Vintage 2013

Terry Hoage Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Lastly, the 2013 Terry Hoage Vineyard is a forward, exotic effort that's made from 57% Syrah, 29% Grenache and 14% Mourvedre. It is one of the more fresh and lively wines in the lineup, with notes of passion fruits, jolly rancher, plums, spice and green herbs (Justin always finds a touch of watermelon rind from this site). This beauty is full-bodied, silky and beautifully textured on the palate, with impeccable balance and a great finish. Drink this puppy anytime over the coming decade or so."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $180-240

8537 Saxum Red - Vintage 2014Terry Hoage Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Blended of 48% Syrah, 30% Grenache and 22% Mourvèdre, the 2014 Terry Hoage Vineyard has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and slightly reticent nose of red currants and raspberry leaves with suggestions of black pepper, fragrant earth and mossy bark, with a hint of pencil lead. Medium to full-bodied, tightly wound and with fairly restrained, earthy/savory flavors, it has beautifully ripe tannins and a nice long refreshing finish."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $160-220

8538 Saxum Syrah - Vintage 2011Bone Rock(Wines Located in New York)"Decidedly cool climate in character, the 2011 James Berry Vineyard Bone Rock comes from steep, terraced plots of old head trained Syrah vines that, in 2011, wasn't harvested until November. Co-fermented with a splash of Roussanne and Mourvedre, it's a spectacular effort that makes the most of the cool, long growing season. It's also the most long term prospect in the lineup. Offering up a tight, Cornas-like bouquet of black and blue fruits, white pepper, spring flowers and salty minerality, it is full-bodied, beautifully concentrated and seamless on the palate, with ultra-fine tannin and building richness that only starts to develop with a healthy decant. It's a gorgeous wine, yet needs to be forgotten for at least 4-5 years. It should drink nicely through 2031."(98+pts)1 bottle per lot $180-240

8540 Saxum Syrah - Vintage 2011Bone Rock, James Berry Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)3 bottles per lot $300-420

8542 Saxum Syrah - Vintage 2010Booker Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Syrah Booker Vineyard a blend of 81% Syrah and 19% Mourvedre is about as textbook a representation of a Paso Robles Syrah as I can think of. Locked and loaded with notions of ripe black and blue fruits, smoke, bouquet garni, espresso, and licorice, it is unabashedly full-bodied, rich, and yet elegant on the palate. Showing real class, as well as first-rate

freshness, superb depth and concentration, and masses of tannin, this blockbuster Syrah needs a solid 3-4 years of bottle age to flesh out, and will keep for 15-20 years or more."(98pts)1 magnum per lot $200-300

8545 Saxum Syrah - Vintage 2013Booker Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Leading off the wines tasted from bottle, the 2013 Booker Vineyard is one of the prettier, more elegant and pure examples of this cuvée I can recall. A blend of 67% Syrah and the rest Mourvedre, fermented with 30% whole cluster, this total thrill ride offers sensational notes of creme de cassis, black raspberries, ground herbs and crushed flowers to go with a full-bodied, ultra-pure, silky and seamless style on the palate. This tannin quality is off the charts, but it needs short term cellaring to really show at its best."(98pts)1 magnum per lot $180-240

8547 Saxum Syrah - Vintage 2011Broken Stones(Wines Located in New York)"The brilliant 2011 Syrah Broken Stones comes from a cooler block of the James Berry Vineyard and checks in as a blend of 78% Syrah, 18% Mourvedre and 4% Petit Sirah. Relatively forward (especially when compared to the locked up Bone Rock), with fabulous purity and freshness, it exudes notions of creme de cassis, blueberry, pepper, crushed flowers and sweet oak on the nose. Full-bodied, seamless and elegant, yet with building richness and rock star length, it's an elegant version of the cuvée to drink over the coming 15 years or more."(96pts)1 magnum per lot $180-240


8552 Morlet Family Vineyards White - Vintage 2009La Proportion Doree(Wines Located in New York)"Luc Morlet's 2009 Proportion Doree (Semillon/Sauvignon) is a rich, textured white laced with expressive yellow stone fruits, mango, tangerine and mint. It shows gorgeous inner perfume and lovely overall balance. Despite its richness, there is no sense of heaviness whatsoever. As good as this is today, it really is a wine that needs bottle age to acquire the full breadth of its complexity, especially in the aromatics. The Proportion Doree is made with just one cluster per shoot, with the wings and shoulders cut off. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2019."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

_____________________________

8558 Château Angelus - Vintage 2000St. Emilionll (Wines Located in New York)"Approaching perfection, this wine is inky, bluish/purple-colored to the rim, offering up notes of incense, blueberry and blackberry liqueur, licorice,

graphite and spring flowers. A touch of roasted espresso bean is also present. The wine has great concentration, a magnificent, full-bodied mouthfeel, stunning purity, and well-integrated acidity, tannin, alcohol and wood. This beauty seems to be in mid-adolescence with at least 25-30 years of life ahead."(99pts)1 bottle per lot $500-700

8559 Château Beausejour Duffau Lagrosse - Vintage 2000St. Emilion6lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"I often lament the fact that only the 1990 and 2009 are wines that fully showcase this extraordinary terroir. However, the 2000 is no "Ugly Betty," so to speak. It showed extremely well in the tastings, with the tell-tale notes of flowers, crushed rock, blueberry and camphor well-displayed. Full-bodied, rich, long, and just beginning to shed its cloak of tannin, this is quite an impressively endowed Beausejour-Duffau that can be drunk in 1-2 years or cellared for another 25 or more."(93pts)6 bottles per lot $550-700

8560 Château Beychevelle - Vintage 1978St. Julien10bn, 2ts, 12hbsl, 7wasl, 12hgsl, 2sdc, 12scc, 1tc 1x12bottle owc, excellent color (Wines Located in New York)12 bottles per lot $850-1100

8561 Château Calon Segur - Vintage 2009St. Estephe1x6 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 has the highest percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (90%) ever included in a Calon-Segur (the rest is Merlot and Petit Verdot). Completely different from its St.-Estephe brethren, it is more backward and structured with a dense purple color, lots of black cherry, black currant, loamy earth, forest floor and spice notes, excruciatingly high levels of tannin, and a wonderful inner core of sweetness and concentration. It could behave like the 1982, which, at age 30, is just becoming mature. The 2009 is an uncompromising, masculine, massive style of wine that needs 15-20 years of cellaring even in this luscious, flashy, flamboyant vintage. "(94+pts)6 magnums per lot $1300-1700

8565 Château Cos d'Estournel - Vintage 2000St. Estephelbsl, sdc (Wines Located in New York)"Absolutely gorgeous on the nose, with currants, blackberries and freshly cut flowers. Full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins and a solid core of fruit. This goes on and on on the palate. The essence of class and refinement."(96pts WS)1 bottle per lot $220-300

8568 Château Ducru Beaucaillou - Vintage 1989St. Julienlbsl, sdc (Wines Located in New York)"The 1989 Ducru Beaucaillou has an unenviable

reputation as a hit 'n miss wine, since this was the period when the château suffered a TCA infection in the roof. This bottle seemed to have been affected, but perhaps that diverts you from this rather humdrum Ducru compared to recent spectacular vintages courtesy of Bruno Borie. The nose is staid and lacks fruit concentration in the context of the vintage, dusty and smudged. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannin, somehow hollow and shallow with a very one-dimensional finish that doesn't exactly leave you begging for another sip. If you want to play Russian roulette, then go for the 1989, though personally I would prefer to drink any vintage from the last decade. Tasted April 2016."(86?pts)1 bottle per lot $140-180

8571 Château Fontenil - Vintage 2003Fronsac1x12 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"A beautiful deep plum/garnet color reveals little evidence of eleven years of age. The wine's striking nose of forest floor, blue and black fruits is followed by a medium to full-bodied, opulent, fresh, lively, impressively endowed Fronsac that is clearly a sleeper of the vintage. It should continue to drink well for 6-10 years."(91pts)12 bottles per lot $300-380

8572 Château Gruaud Larose - Vintage 1990St. Julien2bn, 6hscl (Wines Located in New York)"....woodsy, herb, and black fruit aromas. In the mouth, there is power, a structured, medium to full-bodied taste profile, and more stuffing and depth than the 1989 possessed."(93pts)2 bottles per lot $280-380

8577 Château La Mission Haut Brion - Vintage 1999Graves(Wines Located in New York)"...this is a multi-textured, thick, juicy, dense purple-colored 1999 with generous amounts of La Mission's chocolatey, scorched earth, black fruit character.Medium to full-bodied, with low acidity, this sexy, opulent, stunning effort..."(91pts)6 bottles per lot $1300-1700

8579 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 2014St. Julien1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"The 2014 Leoville-Las Cases is a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with Cabernet Franc and Merlot, cropped at 33 hectoliters per hectare and matured in 85% new oak. There is 6.8% vin de presse this year. Picked between 30 September and 13 October over 12 days. It has a delectable bouquet with very precise, mineral-rich black fruit infused with oyster shell, which

appears to be a leitmotif of Jean-Huber Delon's 2014s! The palate is medium-bodied with wondrous purity and tension, the acidity beautifully poised and imparting the palpable sense of energy from start to finish. Where it really excels is on the finish: exquisite structure, very complex with enormous persistence that lingers for more than a minute. Surely the wine of the appellation, ditto one of the best Left Bank 2014s."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $950-1200

8580 Château Leoville Poyferre - Vintage 1982St. Julienbn, scl, nc, ssos (Wines Located in New York)"There is no question that Leoville Poyferre was not making wines at the level of quality they have since 1990. That said, the 1982 is a great wine, no doubt because of the vintage rather than the winemaking at that time. A brilliant effort, it boasts a dense purple color as well as a sweet, flowery bouquet revealing plenty of creme de cassis, plum, and cherry notes, stunning concentration, a boatload of power, sweet tannins (the sweetest and easiest to taste among the St.-Juliens), and a long finish. Although close to full maturity, it has at least 20-25 years of life remaining. Release price: ($130.00/case)"(95pts)1 bottle per lot $260-350

8584 Château Monbousquet - Vintage 2000St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"Its saturated black/purple color is accompanied by extraordinary aromatics of sweet blackberries, chocolate, coffee, incense, new saddle leather, and vanilla. Remarkable intensity, lively acidity, and abundant tannin provide definition and grip. This is the most intense, muscular, and biggest Monbousquet made to date..."(95pts)5 bottles per lot $450-600

8585 Château Montrose - Vintage 2003St. Estephe4vlscl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2003 Montrose was served blind in Bordeaux on two occasions. Picked between 11 to 26 September, it is a blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. It remains one of the outstanding wines of a very black and white vintage. Without knowledge of the vintage, I was hesitant to suggest 2003, because though there is clearly fruit intensity locked up inside this Saint Estèphe, it is counterbalanced by the estate's trademark masculinity and austerity. So both on the nose and the palate it reaches this happy medium: pure blackberry, graphite and roasted herbs on the nose, perhaps even more elegant than I have observed on previous bottles. The palate is medium-bodied rather than full bodied with sturdy tannins couched in layers of seamless blackberry and cassis fruit, offset by scents of tobacco and graphite. As usual it has immense length and depth, a Montrose that is really just a few chapters into what is sure to be a longer "book" than many other 2003s. It is not a perfect Montrose, but a couple of hairs' breadth away. Tasted February 2017."(98pts)


8587 Château Sociando Mallet - Vintage 1982Haut Medoc6bsl, 6gsl (Wines Located in New York)"The nose could be that of a 1990, revealing exuberant, pure, ripe blackcurrant aromas intermixed with scents of minerals and spices. Full-bodied, with high extraction, copious quantities of glycerin, and huge tannin, this is a young, backward, impressively-endowed Sociando-Mallet that may prove to be one of the slowest agers of the vintage."(90pts)6 bottles per lot $550-750

8589 Château Talbot - Vintage 2000St. Julien1tl, 5lscl (Wines Located in New York)"Beautiful aromas of raspberries, Indian spices, crushed flowers and berries. Full-bodied, with a solid core of ripe fruit and silky tannins. Long and delicious. A very fine and pretty wine. Best Talbot in years..."(93pts WS)9 bottles per lot $950-1200

8590 Les Forts de Latour - Vintage 2000Pauillaclbsl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Les Forts de Latour is a seriously endowed wine with notes of black walnuts, black currants, crushed rock, tobacco and spice box. Full-bodied, luscious but still in need of another 2-3 years to hit full maturity, it certainly can evolve for another 15 or more years, and looks to be slightly richer and longer-lived than I originally predicted."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $220-300

8591 Clos de la Roche - Vintage 2004L. & A. Lignier1lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"A superbly complex nose combining a stylish mix of red berry liqueur, blue berry and black raspberry fruit aromas nuanced with game, tea, smoke and hints of earth and leather. The big and well-muscled yet refined flavors are structured, firm and explosive and this finishes with a flourish as it's at once classy and stunningly pure. Another terrific Lignier Clos de la Roche in a long string of them; just be aware that this will require moderate patience."(92pts BH)9 bottles per lot $1300-1700

8593 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2005Charvin(Wines Located in New York)"Laurent's 2005 Châteauneuf du Pape continues to show brilliantly. Made from the standard estate blend of 85% Grenache and then 5% each of Syrah, Mourvèdre and Vaccarese, aged all in concrete tank, it offers up a thrilling bouquet of kirsch and darker berry-styled fruits, flowers, licorice and pepper. Gorgeous on all accounts, with full-bodied richness, beautiful purity and laser focus and precision on the palate, drink this rock-star Châteauneuf anytime over the coming 10-15 years."(95pts)

8597 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1994La Mouline, E. Guigallbsl, tvl, ltl (Wines Located in New York)"...reveals the sweetest, most profound aromas. Spring flower garden scents combined with bacon fat, jammy black fruit, and toasty oak, are followed by a rich, medium to full-bodied, opulent, velvety-textured wine..."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $320-420

8598 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1996La Mouline, E. Guigalsdc (Wines Located in New York)"More alcohol in the nose and a hint of green pepper, and almost diaper in the nose - very herbal...drier tannins and more acids a bit unbalacned at first, but gets riper and rounder...a stinky wine that needs a lot of air and develops nicely in the glass after a couple of hours - some roasted meat and muscle comes out, and the wine actually surpassed the '97 for me by the end of the evening but not at the beginning...real 'crystallized fruit, according to Steve, which was an excellent way to put it."(94pts JK)1 bottle per lot $320-420

8605 Dom Pérignon Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1985Rosevlscl (Wines Located in New York)"A marvelous wine with a nose marked by the extraordinary A Pinot. Moet & Chandon have succeeded in the art of making a wine with a powerful Pinot nose and at the same time a buttery, elegant Chardonnay texture. One of the best ros Champagnes I've tasted."(97pts RJ)1 magnum per lot $1800-2400

8609 Barolo - Vintage 2006Ciabot Mentin Ginestra, Clerico3lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"...bursts onto the palate with gorgeous, well-delineated aromas and flavors. This is an especially chiseled, finely sculpted, yet exotic Barolo endowed with extraordinary complexity and mouth-filling intensity in its ripe dark plums, mint, violets, sweet spices, soy, tar and minerals."(97pts)3 bottles per lot $320-400

8610 Barolo - Vintage 2007Ciabot Mentin, Clerico3bsl, 1nl (Wines Located in New York)"...is one of the greatest wines I have ever tasted at this address. Deep, sensual layers of fruit flow from the

glass as this full-throttle, intense Barolo reveals its profound, breathtaking personality. The 2007 shows tons of Ginestra nuance, but with extra dimensions to the fruit that literally covers every nook and cranny of the palate."(98pts)3 bottles per lot $320-400


Estate cuvée, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"...reveals a dense ruby/purple color as well as a gorgeous nose of chocolate-covered black cherries and hints of cedar and licorice, medium to full body, superb richness and weight, and moderate tannins."(94pts)5 bottles per lot $600-700


Estate cuvée, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)12 bottles per lot $1100-1500


Grand Vin, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The perfect 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Vin State Lane Vineyard is 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Merlot aged 20 months in 100% new French oak. I think this is the third perfect score I've given to this wine, which is the essence of their vineyard, representing about 13% of the total production, or a mere 320 cases. The wine has a gorgeously opaque purple color and a beautiful nose of camphor, charcoal, blackberry and cr?me de cassis with licorice and truffle. It has unbelievable richness, great texture, tremendous finesse, precision and delineation. Very intense, full-bodied and super-pure, the length of the wine must be at least 50+ seconds. This is a gorgeous wine and one of the great superstars of this fabulous vintage. Drink it over the next 25-30 years."(100pts)3 bottles per lot $1100-1500


Rapszodia(Wines Located in New York)"A great effort and a showcase for Cabernet Franc is the 2012 Rapszodia. This is a blend of 90% Cabernet Franc from the heavy clay soils of their vineyard blended with 10% Merlot aged in 100% new French oak for 20 months and bottled without filtration. A stunning nose of acacia flowers, blueberry liqueur and blackberry is followed by a medium to full-bodied wine that's amazingly intense, rich and concentrated, but surprisingly light on its feet weight-wise. The wine is full-bodied, but stunningly ethereal and sublime. This is a stunner, and a great example of what Cabernet Franc can do from a terrifiCôterroir, great winemaking and élevage. Sadly, only 175 cases were produced. Look for this wine to continue to drink well for up to two decades."(98pts)



Roberta's Reserve, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 Roberta's Reserve (14.2% alcohol), a luxury Merlot-based wine, is composed of 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc. It possesses copious amounts of melted chocolate, fudge, espresso roast, black cherry, plum and Asian spice characteristics that hit the palate with a full-bodied crescendo, wonderful opulence and a juicy, succulent, voluptuous texture. This beauty is hard to resist. Unfortunately, they only made 260 cases, or 8% of the total production."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $160-220


Roberta's Reserve, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 100% Merlot cuvée, the 2012 Roberta's Reserve State Lane Vineyard is, once again, flirting with perfection. A stunning nose of chocolate fudge intermixed with coffee bean, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit is intense, and followed by a full-bodied, gorgeously textured, opulent style of wine with stunning richness and purity. This is a brilliant wine and only represents 12% of the production, as only 300 cases were produced. It should drink well for 20-25 years."(98pts)6 bottles per lot $1300-1700

8620 Kapcsandy Family Red - Vintage 2010Endre(Wines Located in New York)"The less expensive 2010 Endre (53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc aged in both French and Hungarian oak) is very Bordeaux like. Notes of bouquet garni, red and black currants and loamy soil are present in this medium-bodied wine that seems to be a faster evolving effort than its siblings. With excellent texture as well as an elegant style, and I use that word in a positive sense, it should drink well for 10-15 years."(94pts)5 bottles per lot $280-400

8621 Kapcsandy Family Red - Vintage 2005Estate cuvée, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2005 Estate cuvée State Lane Vineyard, which was 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc (600 cases), reveals loads of licorice, graphite, and blackcurrants in a sexy, toasty style with hints of earth, loamy soil notes and a floral underpinning. The wine is fragrant, with great intensity, a full-bodied mouthfeel, and almost a Mouton-Rothschild-like Crème de cassis element. This wine is drinking well now, but will continue to evolve for another two decades."(98+pts)6 bottles per lot $750-1000

8631 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2013Female(Wines Located in New York)"Manfred's 2013 Grenache Female checks in as a blend of 78% Grenache, 19% Syrah and 3% Mourvèdre that is mostly from his Eleven Confessions estate vineyard in Sta. Rita Hills, yet has smaller portions from his Cumulus, The Third Twin and Bien Nacido vineyards. Seeing just over 24 months in a mix of demi-muids, 300-liter Hog Heads and barrique, it has a sensational bouquet of spring flowers, black raspberries, black cherries, violets, licorice and camphor. Reminding me of a great vintage of Raymond Usseglio's Cuvée Imperiale, this full-bodied, elegant Grenache is impeccably balanced, has a full and layered mid-palate (which is missing from just about every other Grenache made in California), and sweet tannin on the finish. It's almost impervious to air and didn't budge an inch over the three days I followed this bottle."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $550-750

8632 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2012Stein(Wines Located in New York)"Starting with the Grenache release, the 2012 Grenache Stein is a blend of 76% Grenache, 16% Syrah and 8% Mourvedre, aged in 14% new French oak (15% was in concrete), that comes mostly from the estate's Eleven Confessions Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills, but also includes grapes from the Cumulus, Third Twin (Syrah) and Bien Nacido vineyards. Checking in at 15.7% alcohol, it's no lightweight, yet it has considerable elegance in its sweet blackcurrants, white pepper, licorice, baking spices and hints of violet-like aromas and flavors. Possessing the hallmark purity of the estate, it's full-bodied, concentrated, rich and textured, with sweet tannin barely noticeable on the finish. I don't think it's one of the greatest Grenaches from the estate, yet it's still an incredible effort that will benefit from short-term cellaring and have 15-20 years or more of overall longevity."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $260-350

8633 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2009Turn The Whole Thing Upside Down1nl (Wines Located in New York)"...emerges from the glass with layers of dark red fruit as it sweeps across the palate.

8636 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2013Male1nl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2013 Syrah Male is an elegant, seamless Syrah that exudes class in its creme de cassis, black raspberry, smoked meats, graphite and asphalt-laced bouquet. This is a blend of 80% Syrah, 7% Petite Sirah, 6% Mourvèdre, 3.5% Touriga National and 3.5% Viognier, fermented with 28% whole clusters and aged 25 months in 65% new French oak.

8637 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2012Stocknl (Wines Located in New York)"A step up from the Grenache, the blockbuster-styled 2012 Syrah Stock checks in as a blend of 84% Syrah, 7% Grenache, 6% Petit Sirah, and the rest Viognier and Mourvedre, that was fermented with 32% whole clusters and aged in just over half new French oak. It offers stunning notes of blackcurrants, cassis, smoked meats, ground pepper and wild herbs to go with a full-bodied, unctuous, layered, yet always graceful and elegant feel on the palate. Nicely structured, with perfect overall balance, it still has the open-knit character of the vintage, yet has plenty of underlying structure, which at the moment is slightly hidden by the wine's lavish fruit. It will be better in 2-3 years, and have two decades of overall longevity."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $260-350

8638 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2009The Thrill of Stamp Collecting(Wines Located in New York)"A wild, heady bouquet evokes candied black and blue fruits, smoky Indian spices and cola.

It is a more typical 2005, not nearly as fruit-driven as the Shea offering. The wine has a fragrant but slightly brooding nose with elements of smoke, vanilla, cola, black cherry, and blackberry. This is followed by a supple-textured wine with uplifting acidity, a firm structure, and a wide enough band of fruit to provide balance. Give it 5-7 years of further bottle age and drink it through 2025."(93pts)3 magnums per lot $180-240

8775 De Lancellotti Pinot Noir - Vintage 2008(Wines Located in New York)"Representing a jump in production to around 500 cases, the De Lancellotti 2008 Pinot Noir displays the sappy, ripe fruit one anticipates from this vintage in what with hindsight seems the context of an evolving sense of estate style. This is a Pinot strong on levity (at not much over 13% alcohol), inner mouth perfume, and textural tenderness. Juicy dark cherry and plum are tinged with cardamom, ginger, and piquant fruit pit as well as underlain by a saliva-stimulating impression of lightly-salted, multi-boned beef stock. I'm sure (as it

happens; not meaning to implicate resemblance to red Burgundy as the Willamette's qualitative touchstone) that tasted blind in a line-up of Gevrey Chambertin I would have accepted this as belonging. The piquant, mouthwatering savor and sweetness of fruit lingers delightfully but eventually compels the next sip. This ought to be worth following for at least another 3-4 years."(92pts)5 bottles per lot $100-140

Readers looking for restrained, Euro-styled wines should steer clear of this behemoth. It offers blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with lead pencil shavings, smoke, and high quality toasty oak. Full-bodied, massively rich, dense, and well-balanced for a wine of this weight and power, it should be at its finest in 2-3 years, and last for 10-15."(95pts)3 bottles per lot $70-100

8795 D'Arenberg Shiraz - Vintage 2000Dead Arm1lwisl (Wines Located in New York)"This estate's most renowned offering is their old vine (90+ years) Shiraz called The Dead Arm. The unfined/unfiltered 2000 The Dead Arm Shiraz is one of South Australia's finest wines of the vintage. A perfume of grilled steak intermixed with blackberries, new saddle leather, earth, pepper, and melted licorice rises from this awesome red. With great power, richness, and no hard edges, it is still young and primary, but should hit its peak in 3-7 years, and last for two decades or more."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $60-90

A dark, evolved, plum/garnet color is followed by a distinctive perfume of forest floor, jammy raspberries and black currants, a full-bodied, luscious mouthfeel, and such a voluptuous, sexy style that it could be called the Pamela Anderson of Napa red wines. A fleshy, in-your-face, exceptionally well-made effort, it should drink well for 5-7 more years."(91pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

In the mouth, the wine is rich, with the essence of apricots, pineapples, and other tropical fruits. The acidity is crisp, giving the wine great definition and clarity. The finish is sweet, honeyed, and long. This beautifully made Sauternes is one of my favorites from the 1986 vintage."(92pts)11 half-bottles per lot $320-420

9066 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2006Collemattoni(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is a big, bold wine imbued with wild cherries, earthiness, tar, smoke and grilled herbs. This shows more of the rustic side of Sangiovese in its hearty personality, but there is more than enough substance in the fruit to balance some of the wine's edgier qualities. Licorice, new leather and French oak linger on a round, harmonious finish that compensates for some of the wine's small imperfections. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024."(92+pts)4 bottles per lot $120-160

9073 Saffredi - Vintage 1999Le Pupille1wisl (Wines Located in New York)"The 1999 Saffredi is an immensely gratifying wine. It could almost be mistaken for a Burgundy, so pure and sweet is the bouquet. The 1999 is a decidedly understated, graceful Saffredi that impresses for its elegance and finesse rather than for its heft. Hints of French oak, smoke, autumn leaves, tar and tobacco add the final layers of complexity."(92pts WA)2 bottles per lot $130-180

9085 August Briggs Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2001Monte Rosso Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Monte Rosso Vineyard is impressive.

Tannic, powerful, rich, and packed with all the necessities for a long life, this impressively made red requires 2-3 years of cellaring, and should last for 15+."(90pts)3 bottles per lot $70-90

Aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak casks, it is a tightly-knit, black currant-scented wine with plenty of sweet oak, as well as powerful, rich flavors that have been melded into a restrained, elegant, authoritatively flavorful wine. Patience is mandatory as this black beauty needs 4-5 more years of cellaring; it should keep for two decades."(90pts)2 bottles per lot $120-160

I love the purity here, and it opens up nicely in the glass, has solid mid-palate depth and building tannin. It too should be approachable on release, yet I suspect it will benefit from short-term cellaring."(91-94pts)6 bottles per lot $240-320

9149 Domaine de la Côte Pinot Noir - Vintage 2012Santa Rita Hills(Wines Located in New York)"Incorporating 50% stems, Sashi's 2012 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills should be outstanding, as well as a solid value. Showing ripe, yet juicy aromas and flavors of berry fruit, crushed herbs and spring flowers, it has a solid core of fruit, beautiful purity and terrific finish. As with most 2012s, it should be approachable on release and drink nicely for 4-6 years."(90-92pts)3 bottles per lot $120-160

9150 Kongsgaard Syrah - Vintage 2003(Wines Located in New York)"The blockbuster, opaque purple-colored 2003 Syrah

Hudson Vineyard exhibits aromas of ground pepper, licorice, graphite, and smoke. While there is huge fruit and great richness, this cuvée appears to have shut down following bottling. Tannic, heady, and rich, it was difficult to coax out of the glass. There is a wonderful composty, underbrush, primordial character to these Syrahs, with an almost scorched earth component. Think of it as drinking a liquefied grilled steak."(94+pts)1 bottle per lot $75-100

9151 Kongsgaard Syrah - Vintage 2008(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Syrah from a special, 3-acre parcel of the Hudson Vineyard planted in volcanic soils reveals abundant steak tartare/meaty notes intermixed with notions of smoked herbs, bacon, black currants, plums and Asian spices. This full-bodied, complex Syrah should be consumed over the next 7-8 years."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $100-140

9159 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir - Vintage 2012Sonoma Coast(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast is a beautiful wine that comes from four vineyards, Gap's Crown, Griffin's Lair, Terra de Promissio and Walala. It has a deep ruby/semi-opaque color that is followed by a youthful, rich and concentrated wine offering classic dark cherries, plum, licorice, ground herbs and baking-spice-driven aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied, layered and structured, it opens up beautifully with air, has seamlessly integrated fruit, tannin and alcohol, and stays classy and nicely focused on the finish. It can be enjoyed now with a decant, but will be better in another

year, and have over a decade of longevity."(93pts)2 bottles per lot $160-200

9200 Clarendon Hills Syrah - Vintage 2001Piggot Range(Wines Located in New York)"The 2001 Syrah Piggott Range may be one of several Clarendon Hills' Syrah cuvées that stand toe to toe with its 2002 sibling. A giant Syrah, it boasts an enormously

rich nose of black fruits, subtle vanilla, smoke, and a hint of graphite. Extremely full-bodied, thick, and prodigious, it will be at its finest between 2008-2025."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $100-140

9213 Fonseca Vintage Port - Vintage 2000(Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Fonseca continues to exude finesse and focus on the nose, with pure blackberry, juniper berries, licorice and a touch of sloes, perhaps as Adrian Bridge remarked, just beginning to close after ten years in bottle. The palate is underpinned by very fine tannins, a sensual, svelte texture with wonderful acidity. The harmony and symmetry is alluring, the finish precise and demonstrating the persistency to suggest a long future ahead. Drink 2020-2060."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $120-160

9225 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port - Vintage 2000(Wines Located in New York)"Among the most saturated blue/purple/black-colored examples of the vintage, Taylor's 2000 tastes like a young vintage of Château Latour on steroids. Aromas of graphite, blackberry liqueur, Crème de cassis and smoke jump from the glass. Spectacularly concentrated and enormously endowed, with sweetness allied to ripe tannin, decent acidity, and layer upon layer of fruit and extract, this is the leading candidate for the port of the vintage."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $140-180


9229 Warre's Vintage Port - Vintage 19944lbsl, 1hbsl, 1wasl (Wines Located in New York)"A great surprise for the vintage.

9264 Krug Vintage Champagne - Vintage NVRose(Wines Located in New York)"Their aim was to make a wine with a proper house-style, where the color was the only clue that it was a rosé. The color is an extremely light salmon-pink, and the nose is definitely Krug! Their unmistakable symphony of full, complex aromas is backed up by a whiff of raspberry. The taste is tremendously austere and acidic, but less generous than a Grande Cuvée and definitely a wine to store."(94pts RJ)1 half-bottle per lot $200-280

9269 Louis Roederer Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1999Cristal Rosenl (Wines Located in New York)"...an unobtrusive scent of spring, yet with such aristocratic deportment that all the subtleties become conspicuously distinct and discernible. The streak of wild strawberry, the white chocolate, the exotic pink scent of orchids, that magical, whirling pearl necklace mousse and the long strawberry toffee finish all taken together make it possible for one just to lean back and enjoy one of the most seductive wines on this earth."(95pts RJ)1 bottle per lot $400-600

The Montosoli, from one of Montalcino's top sites, shows considerable density and richness. The tannins build on the finish, rounding out a gorgeous Brunello that achieves a brilliant combination of power and elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2022."(92pts)12 bottles per lot $1200-1600

9293 Solengo - Vintage 2004Argiano2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"Readers will find much to admire in these two new releases from Argiano, located in the southern part of the Montalcino zone. The 2004 Solengo presents gorgeous aromatics followed by super-ripe dark fruit, crushed flowers, herbs, spices and sweet toasted oak that flow from its opulent, full-bodied frame. Showing superb concentration, the wine is supported by an attractive note of underlying minerality that provides balance as well as a sense of proportion. It offers outstanding length, a silky-textured personality and

ripe, sweet tannins on the finish in a rare display that marries power with elegance. It will be tempting to drink this early, but a few years of cellaring will give the wine an opportunity to express the fullest range of its potential. In 2004 Solengo is a blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 25% Syrah that spent 17 months in new French oak barrels. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2024."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $600-800

9294 Solengo - Vintage 2006Argiano2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"Argiano's 2006 Solengo is an explosive dense wine packed with blueberry jam, grilled herbs, tar and smoke. This is another structured, powerful wine that needs time for the tannins to soften but the wine is quite promising, even at this early stage. In 2006 Solengo has taken on elements of a Bordeaux-like classicism I find very appealing, although the Tuscan warmth inevitably comes through. Not a bad combination. The Sangiovese is gone, and Solengo is now 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 25% Syrah. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2021."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $600-800

9295 Messorio - Vintage 2009Le Macchiole2x6 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"...emerges from the glass with dark cherries, plums, mocha, smoke, incense and grilled herbs.

In short, there isn't a whole lot to get excited about, and I can't remember the last time that was the case with Messorio."(91pts)12 bottles per lot $1600-2000

Complex, oaky nose melds plum, cedar, smoke, minerals and nut skin, along with mushroom and earth notes. The strong, pungent cherry and licorice flavors are perked up by a brisk citric edge (grapefruit?). A rather stylish wine with fruit of steel. Finishes with intense flavor and excellent grip. Needs to be served with food, like a grilled steak."(92pts VM)1 27 liter per lot $6000-9000

Sumptuously, even lavishly oaked yet it carries its oak as though it were nothing and there is no doubt that this will absorb the wood completely as there is a mind boggling amount of mid-palate sap and punch and it completely coats the mouth and the persistence is exemplary. The structure is completely buried beneath all the sap and while this should be approachable after a decade, it will drink well for another two. Another great Roty Charmes in a very long line of them. If you can find a few bottles, don't miss them. In short, this is very classy juice."(94pts BH)1 magnum per lot $550-700

A cooler vintage that featured higher acids and more mid-weight aromas and flavors, the 2004 Châteauneuf du Pape Combe des Fous sports rocking depth and richness to go with big black fruits, black licorice, roasted herbs and assorted meatiness. Drinking well, I'd pop bottles over the coming couple of years, yet no doubt it will have a solid evolution through 2019 or so."(94pts)12 bottles per lot $600-750

9355 Joseph Phelps Winery - Vintage 1996Insignia4bsl, 1nl, 1ll (Wines Located in New York)"Aged 22 months in 100% new French oak, this blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Merlot reveals a powerful core of red and black fruits, dusty, loamy soil, lavender and a hint of toast. I would not describe it as elegant, but rather, it is a big, backstrapping, Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine that should continue to drink well for 15 or more years."(95pts)4 bottles per lot $480-600

9362 Fonseca Vintage Port - Vintage 1992bsl, ltl, wrc (Wines Located in New York)"This colossal vintage port reveals a nearly opaque black/purple color, and an explosive nose of jammy black fruits, licorice, chocolate, and spices.

Soundings reveal citrus zest, fruit pits, kelp, pine resin, and oyster shells. This should be an almost inexhaustible source of intrigue and pleasure over the coming decade.

One of those wines that just screams "Southern Rhône!" it's still relatively youthful (I'd happily drink bottles today) and will hold nicely for another decade and then have a gradual decline after that."(92pts)6 bottles per lot $180-240

Citrus and mineral notes are displayed in a crisp, full style. It is high in acidity, yet intense, with a striking minerality atypical for most California Chardonnays. Exceptional precision makes it a wine to cellar for a few years, and drink over the following decade."(90pts)1 magnum per lot $100-140

Still, there is much to be enjoyed here, from the leather, cranberry and truffle-scented nose whose vigor is undiminished, to the structured and masculine palate that as I have previously observed, is reminiscent of Château Lafleur. It's that good. Drink this marvelous La Fleur-Pétrus over the next 4-5 years. Tasted June 2014."(93pts)3 bottles per lot $600-800

Purple in color, it has an other-worldly perfume of smoky new oak, crushed stone, truffle, espresso, and assorted black fruits. This leads to an opulent wine with gobs of sweet fruit, incipient complexity, superb richness and texture, and a very long, pure finish. It will continue to add complexity in the cellar for 8-10 years and should perform optimally between 2018 and 2035."(97pts)6 bottles per lot $450-600

It has a deep ruby/semi-opaque color that is followed by a youthful, rich and concentrated wine offering classic dark cherries, plum, licorice, ground herbs and baking-spice-driven aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied, layered and structured, it opens up beautifully with air,

has seamlessly integrated fruit, tannin and alcohol, and stays classy and nicely focused on the finish. It can be enjoyed now with a decant, but will be better in another year, and have over a decade of longevity."(93pts)3 bottles per lot $240-300

The 1988 is much finer than the monolithic, thick, juicy, succulent 1990. The 1988's flowery, peach and honey-scented nose and medium to full-bodied, complex, finesse style is more refreshing than the in-your-face, sweet, low acid 1990.

structured, tannic, and backward than the 1989. Perhaps it is just the one year difference in age, but the advantage the 1989 enjoys over the 1990 at present is that its fruit is sweeter and more evolved."(93-97pts)2 bottles per lot $350-500

9681 Saffredi - Vintage 2015Le Pupille2x6 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"The 2015 Saffredi is a sultry and velvety wine from the Tuscan Coast. The blend is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot that sees 18 months in new and neutral oak. The textural richness is of the highest caliber, and the bouquet produces a long succession of black fruit, exotic spice and savory tobacco flavors. There's a touch of mocha chocolate and toasted espresso bean as well. The wine delivers great length and power. It promises not only to age but to improve as it spends more years in the cellar. Some 30,000 bottles are made."(96pts)12 bottles per lot $900-1200

9682 Serpico - Vintage 2010Feudi Di San Gregorio(Wines Located in New York)"The outstanding 2010 Irpinia Aglianico Serpico is Aglianico from a pre-phylloxera vineyard that sees 18 months of medium toast oak. This vintage reveals an impressive sense of balance and inner harmony with dark fruit tones that are enhanced by bright accents of cherry and dried blueberry. Extra focus and intensity is achieved thanks to the dusty mineral shadings that give

pretty contours to the plump fruit. There are distant endnotes of crushed white pepper as well. The tannins offer both firmness and texture. This is a beautiful expression of Aglianico."(95+pts)6 bottles per lot $180-240

The 2012 Corton Clos du Roi from Domaine de la Pousse d'Or is showing a fair amount of new oak on the nose that needs another couple of years to be subsumed. The palate is medium-bodied with a strong saline entry, rounded in the mouth with plenty of extraction, though it requires more detail, more tension on the finish. It just seems rather heavy-handed at the moment although I suspect it will repay cellaring as that carapace of oak melts away."(90+pts)6 bottles per lot $480-600

the 2014 Cornas Renaissance, which is the estate's entry-level cuvée. Classic Clape in every way, with its meaty, bloody, iron, crushed rock and violet-tinged fruit, it's medium to full-bodied, nicely concentrated and supple, with beautiful fruit. There's plenty of fine tannin here, but it also has a solid density of fruit and a beautiful texture. It's already hard to resist."(91pts)5 bottles per lot $260-350

9758 Hermitage - Vintage 2010Domaine des Tourette, Delas Freres1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"A wine of great intensity, it possesses an inky/purple color, plenty of creme de cassis, licorice, lead pencil shavings, camphor, flint and barbecue smoke characteristics, and a thickness and viscosity that eclipse that of the 2009. Full-bodied and powerful with sweet tannins, a striking floral/mineral component in the mid-palate, and a huge, massive finish, this brilliant Hermitage should be consumed between 2018-2035"(96pts)6 bottles per lot $420-600

9759 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2013cuvée Reservee, Domaine du Pegau(Wines Located in New York)"Highly complex, exotic aromas of black raspberry, cherry-cola, blueberry, potpourri, minerals and woodsmoke.

9760 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Le Vieux Donjon(Wines Located in New York)"Up there with the 2010 in terms of quality, the 2007 Châteauneuf du Pape dishes out loads of plum, lavender, ground pepper and licorice in its full-bodied, ripe and layered profile. Possessing a rock-star texture, no hard edges and beautiful concentration, it's drinking nicely now, and should continue to evolve gracefully for another decade."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $380-500

9761 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2008Clos des Papes, P.

9766 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2010Altesino(Wines Located in New York)"Altesino's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino stands proud among its peers. No other wine I tasted among the new releases in Montalcino achieves this unique level of

aromatic finesse and distinction. The bouquet is almost purely floral in character with a strong emphasis on pressed rose petal, dried violets and potpourri. The fruit tones are less emphatic and include bright cherry and red currant. In the mouth, the wine's compressed texture is accented by fennel seed and licorice. the 2009 vintage had more power and heat, but this version shows elegant restraint."(93+pts)6 bottles per lot $260-320

9768 Barolo - Vintage 2010Bricco Boschis, Cavallotto1x6 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Barolo Bricco Boschis is the flagship wine from this historic estate in Castiglione Falletto. The personality here is dark and brooding with savory aromas of cured meat and smoked bacon in a leading role. The intensity is bright and vibrant and the longer you contemplate the wine, the more it offers. Following a few swirls of the glass, you encounter sweet cherry, white almond skin, licorice and pressed rose. Still young, the wine shows enormous complexity. Its balanced structure and acidity would pair next to succulent lamb chops or any number of sophisticated meat recipes. Drink: 2016-2026."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $550-700

9774 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2004Altero, Poggio Antico1x6 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino Altero is a silky, perfumed wine laced with dark fruit, licorice, new leather and French oak. Medium in body, this accessible Brunello offers outstanding harmony and class in a refined style. Altero spends two years in medium-sized French oak barrels prior to being bottled. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2019."(91pts)6 bottles per lot $280-350

9775 Tassinaia - Vintage 2007Terriccio1x6 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Tassinaia is a huge, explosive wine bursting with dark red fruit, spices, leather and licorice. The 2007 is a beautifully expressive, opulent Tassinaia endowed with character and personality. Layers of fruit emerge effortlessly from this fabulous, vivid wine. Menthol, pine and a host of sweet, balsamic nuances wrap around the textured finish. This is a fabulous Tassinaia. The blend is predominantly Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2027."(94pts)6 bottles per lot $190-240

9776 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2005Valdicava1x6 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino is a brooding wine that flows with the essence of smoke, tar, earthiness, wild cherries and iron. This is one of most rich, concentrated Brunellos of the vintage. Dark and enveloping on the palate, this powerful, virile Brunello closes with substantial heft. It should age beautifully on

the depth of its fruit, but readers will enjoy a far more complete drinking experience if the wine is given at least few years in bottle to shed some of its baby fat. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022."(92pts)6 bottles per lot $380-500

9777 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2007Valdicava1x6 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino is gorgeous. Dark red cherries, plums, spices, leather and tobacco wrap around the palate as this dense, powerful wine starts to open up. Expressive aromatics are woven throughout, giving the 2007 a measure of polish and sophistication that is not always present in this wine when it is young. Finessed, suave tannins reinforce an impression of elegance. The 2007 can be enjoyed with minimum cellaring, but it will also age gracefully for many years."(95 pts)6 bottles per lot $480-600

9779 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2010Madonna del Piano, Riserva, Valdicava1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Here is a big wine with lofty ambitions and an impactful presentation. The Valdicava 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Madonna del Piano hits all the right buttons. The wine shows a profound sense of elegance and poise with subtle berry notes that blend into spice, licorice and tar. Those bright and lively aromatic components fold gracefully within the wine's tight texture, its sheer power and the silky nature of the tannins. This wine promises a long and steady aging future ahead."(95+pts)6 bottles per lot $950-1200

9788 Château Margaux - Vintage 1986Margauxscl, cuc (Wines Located in New York)"The 1986 Château Margaux is one of the dark horses of the vintage. It has an exquisite bouquet that is now fully mature, with a mixture of red and black fruit, violets, pastilles and hints of cold stone. It blossoms in the glass, gaining intensity all the time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a more robust Margaux as you would expect given the vintage, clearly with firm backbone, more straight-laced than the 1985 or 1989. Yet there is wonderful delineation and focus here. If you seek strictness and classicism in a wine, then this is the place to come, plus there is superb mineralité and tension on the ferrous finish. Perhaps a little overlooked in recent years, the 1986 Margaux comes highly recommended for those who love the property. This is a wine finally coming of age. Tasted July 2016."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $600-800

9789 Château de Myrat - Vintage 2005Sauternes(Wines Located in New York)"Tasted at the de Myrat vertical at the property. The 2005 Château de Myrat needed some aeration to rid itself of SO2, but it is worth persevering, because underneath lie attractive pineapple, quince and marmalade scents, orange blossom emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with honey, quince and a touch of bitter orange. While the nose does not quite live up to the previous bottle that I tasted, the 2005 could be considered to be the first vintage to relive the glories of yesteryear, before the vineyard fell into deprivation and flirted with extinction. Drink this now and over the next decade. Tasted April 2016."(90pts)1 half-bottle per lot $20-30

Certain vintages of this precious commodity are simply fantastic. The color has the same deep red appearance. The mousse bubbles up in a sensational way. The entire wine exudes seriousness and sumptuous vinosity. This has everything required of a really big red Burgundy. The spice, the coffee aromas, the smokiness, and the massive vegetal tones in the fruit call to mind red beets the aftertaste is reminiscent of the finest bitter chocolate. All of this is an unusually clear expression of first-class Pinot Noir. "(95pts RJ)1 bottle per lot $1200-1600

Although massive, with incredible richness and plenty of fruit, this wine is dominated by its blackcurrant, mineral, cedar character. The copious tannins are still present, but they are integrated with the wine's other components. This classic Calon-Segur is built to stand the test of time. From a half-bottle it should reach full maturity by the turn of the century and last for at least 20-30 years.

Most Charmes-Chambertins are made in a flattering, up-front style, but this one needs 8-10 years of cellaring; it is a 25-year wine.

While Jadot s parcel in this grand cru is sometimes derided for its location (reaching down to the wall by the N74), in 2002 and 2003 two vintages where water-retaining soils were advantageous the results have been glorious. Its dense, pure personality is medium to full-bodied, chewy-textured, crammed with dark cherries, and immensely concentrated. This awesomely deep, muscular, and

persistent wine is masculine and displays exceptional ripeness."(95pts)2 bottles per lot $170-240

9859 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2004L. Jadotnovl (Wines Located in New York)"This too is very ripe with an aromatic profile that runs to deep plum and mocha notes plus nuances of iron, leather and warm earth that continue onto the classically structured flavors that are austere, punchy and impressively intense yet the complexity is such that this is by no means one-dimensional. This is relatively backward and tight in comparison to most of the range here and will require patience to round out the presently edgy finish."(90-92pts BH)1 bottle per lot $70-90

A sensational wine with an inky bluish/purple color, fabulous blueberry and blackberry fruit with hints of lead pencil, acacia flower, pain grille, and spice, the tannins are supple and the wine exuberant, flamboyant, ripe, rich, and long."(95pts)1 magnum per lot $320-420

9908 Bond - Vintage 2008Melbury(Wines Located in New York)"...flows across the palate with layers of dark sensual fruit, spices, licorice, leather and tobacco. Clean veins of minerality frame the fruit beautifully through to the

finish. Floral notes add an element of brightness on the close."(91-93pts)1 bottle per lot $200-300





9912 Bond - Vintage 2004Pluribus(Wines Located in New York)"...will give just about any vineyard on Spring Mountain a run for its money. The 2004 Pluribus has a dense purple color and an elegant, sweet nose of creme de cassis intermixed with some camphor, graphite, and a hint of blueberry (or is it very ripe raspberries?). Quite opulent, full-bodied, but with good underlying acidity, this wine is fresh and remarkably light on its feet for a wine of such enormous intensity and richness. These efforts are all brilliantly executed wines from obviously fabulous sites."(95pts)1 magnum per lot $300-400


9914 Bond - Vintage 2005Pluribus(Wines Located in New York)"The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Pluribus is from a relatively high-elevation vineyard on the steep slopes of Spring Mountain and planted in the white Tufa volcanic bedrock of that area. This is the most northern vineyard of the Bond Estates, and this wine was just incredible. By far, the biggest, most backward and massive of all the 2005s, this wine behaved as if it were three or four years old, rather than ten. Dense purple, it offers notes of blueberry liqueur, St.-Estèphe-like earth, licorice and a gravelly note with incredible depth, lots of blackberries, and a finish that goes on for 45+ seconds. This is incredibly youthful and dominated by the blue and black fruits that are so much a part of the Spring Mountain AVA. This wine needs another 3-4 years of cellaring and should keep for 30-40+ years and turn out to be a fabulous classic from Bond Estate. All of these wines are made in relatively limited quantities, and primarily sold via the winery mailing list."(98+pts)1 magnum per lot $320-420

A wine of great complexity, richness, and intensity, with oodles of creme de cassis fruit and plenty of roasted herbs and meatiness, with exceptional power and richness, this wine has fleshed out since I had it last year, and seems to be destined to be one of Bond s most compelling wines, a full-bodied wine with great purity, richness, and beautifully integrated acidity, wood, and tannin."(97pts)1 magnum per lot $350-500

9933 Harlan Estate Red - Vintage 2003(Wines Located in New York)"One of the most backward yet promising wines of the vintage is the 2003 Harlan Estate. Its dense opaque plum/purple color is accompanied by a sumptuous bouquet of graphite, camphor, creme de cassis, smoky barbecue wood and a hint of forest floor. Similar flavors hit the mouth with full-bodied splendor, a multidimensional mouthfeel and texture, and the sensational finish lasts more than 45 seconds. Some tannins are still present, and this wine seems much younger than expected at ten years of age, so give it 4-5 more years of bottle age and consume it over the following 20-25 years."(98+pts)2 magnums per lot $1600-2200

9934 Harlan Estate Red - Vintage 2007(Wines Located in New York)"Dense plum/purple-colored with sweet aromas of barbecue smoke, blueberries, blackberries, cassis, licorice, hot rocks and subtle oak, it is a splendidly opulent, pure wine with a skyscraper-like texture as well as stunningly deep fruit that expands gracefully across the palate. The finish lasts nearly a full minute. Because of its overwhelming richness and sweet tannins, this brilliant wine seems to be approachable now, but I suspect further nuances and complexity will emerge after 4-5 years in the bottle."(100pts)1 magnum per lot $1800-2400

9941 Peter Michael Red - Vintage 2009l'Esprit des Pavots(Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 L'Esprit des Pavots (47% Cabernet Franc, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot and Merlot) is a much smaller cuvée of 1,540 cases. One of the best second wines I have tasted from this winery, it offers up much of the same character as its bigger sibling, but softer tannins and a more near-term accessibility give the wine immediate appeal. It should drink well for 10-12 years."(92pts)6 bottles per lot $300-400

Its dense opaque blue/purple color is accompanied by notes of graphite, charcoal, burning embers, creme de cassis, licorice and chocolate fudge. Opulent and full-bodied with sweet tannin as well as low acidity, it is just beginning to strut its stuff and reveal secondary nuances. Approachable now, this full-bodied, multi-dimensional wine should continue to drink well for another two decades plus."(97pts)3 bottles per lot $450-600

10030 Château Calon Segur - Vintage 2003St. Estephe1x12 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Loads of crushed berries, with mineral, lightly toasted oak and licorice. Full-bodied, with big, velvety tannins and a long, caressing finish. This is the sleeper of the vintage."(95pts WS)9 bottles per lot $650-900

10031 Château Pape Clement - Vintage 2001Graves5lwasl, 1x12 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"A brilliant dense purple color is accompanied by an extraordinary perfume of camphor, graphite, plums, cassis, and barbecue spices. A prodigious, multilayered, medium-bodied effort with exceptional concentration, a fabulous texture, and a 50-second finish, this brilliant achievement is one of the vintage s monumental wines."(95pts)9 bottles per lot $650-850

10032 Château Pichon Baron - Vintage 2003Pauillac3lstl (Wines Located in New York)"Wow. This shows so much ripe fruit and berry character with just the right hint of lead pencil and

spice. Full-bodied and very chewy. Big and powerful. Beautiful wine. Superb."(95pts WS)6 bottles per lot $650-850

10033 Chambertin - Vintage 2004A. Rousseaultl (Wines Located in New York)"The medium full flavors are reserved, 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."(93pts BH)1 bottle per lot $900-1200

10034 Chambertin - Vintage 2011A. Rousseau(Wines Located in New York)"This is completely different from the Bèze aromatically speaking as here the nose is brooding and recalcitrant and only aggressive swirling liberates fresh scents of spice, wet stone, game and dark berry fruits. There is outstanding richness to the powerful and impressively scaled flavors that possess an abundance of dry extract that imparts a velvety quality to the mid-palate while also buffering the tightly wound core of firm tannins on the driving mineral-inflected and hugely persistent finish."(96pts BH)1 bottle per lot $950-1200

10035 Romanée St. Vivant - Vintage 2007Domaine de la Romanée Contilscl (Wines Located in New York)"An ultra elegant, pure and quite delicately fruited and spiced nose that is extremely fresh, floral and expansive that is more layered still as it introduces seductively textured, detailed and gorgeously delineated middle weight flavors that possess laser-like focus if less density than is usually seen with this wine. Indeed, this is rather like a ballerina with limited power and weight but the watch word here is purity, purity and purity. I quite like this but it will strike some as unduly light though I believe the underlying material is present such that it will add weight in bottle as it ages."(94pts BH)1 bottle per lot $1400-1800

10036 Romanée St. Vivant - Vintage 2012Domaine de la Romanée Conti(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Romanée St Vivant, incidentally served before Richebourg rather than afterwards unlike previous years, was picked on September 28 and 29 at 24 hectoliters per hectare. There is a wondrous, ethereal purity to this 2012, a little more sumptuous than I recall it from barrel, with kirsch and freshly picked strawberries. As it opens, it gains more and more sensuality. The palate is rounded, almost curvaceous in the mouth, clearly more concentrated than the 2011 with a sense of authority and purpose, a bit of daring-do on the long finish. It leaves a slightly ferrous residue on the aftertaste, completing what is a marvelous and sensual Grand Cru. 1,148 cases produced."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $1500-2000

10038 Puligny Montrachet - Vintage 2004Les Folatieres, Domaine Leflaive1lgsl (Wines Located in New York)"As it always is, the nose if finer and decidedly more elegant with really stylish white flower and spiced pear aromas cut with subtle notes of lemon peel that dissolve into pungently mineral medium full flavors built on a base of understatement and finesse rather than power yet there is striking length on the stony finish."(92pts BH)4 bottles per lot $450-650

10043 Chablis - Vintage 2007Butteaux, Raveneaulwisl, lwisvl, ssos (Wines Located in New York)"This is clearly the best of these left bank 1ers with its refined and ultra elegant nose that features a classic mix of citrus, floral, iodine and tidal pool notes trimmed in enough wood to notice it though not enough to dominate the nose. The powerful, concentrated and very firm medium plus weight flavors deliver a bone dry and palate etching finish of superb length. This is a classy effort that is almost painfully intense and it's clear that the older vines add another dimension. Impressive."(92pts BH)1 bottle per lot $160-200

10044 Chablis - Vintage 2008Butteaux, Raveneau(Wines Located in New York)"The benefit of the older vines is apparent as this is notably more complex than either the Forêts or the Montmains with its broad-ranging nose of subtle wood, green fruit, citrus, tidal pool, wet stone and saline notes where the salt and mineral elements continue onto the detailed, intense and exceptionally pure flavors that

ooze Chablis character on the palate staining and impeccably balanced finish."(93pts BH)1 bottle per lot $170-240

10045 Chablis - Vintage 2002Les Clos, V. Dauvissat1lscl (Wines Located in New York)"Tighter still and this is presently completely unevolved and almost aromatically mute, save for hints of exquisitely complex white flower and green apple notes leading to restrained yet powerful flavors that demonstrate little until the wine simply explodes on the finish with breathtaking, almost painful intensity. This is really a very subtle wine, understated in the extreme at the moment yet it is positively crystalline in its purity and minerality but it's the finish that really sets this apart as it is lasts for minutes. In short, there is incredible volume, great power and unbelievable depth if not quite the finesse of the Preuses and this should drink well for 20 years."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $500-650

10047 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1999La Mouline, E. Guigal5vlscl (Wines Located in New York)"An extraordinary effort, it offers a smorgasbord of aromas and flavors. Scents of violets, raspberries, blackberries, roasted espresso, balsamic vinegar, and pepper tumble out of the glass. It is unctuously-textured, full-bodied, and fabulously concentrated with a tremendous purity and seamlessness that must be tasted to be believed. What is so remarkable about this cuvée is its tremendous layers of flavor, awesome texture, and perfect balance. This is an astonishing offering from one of the world s greatest winemakers."(100pts)5 bottles per lot $2400-3500

10048 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 2007La Mouline, E. Guigalnl (Wines Located in New York)"...boasts notes of sweet lychee nuts, licorice, black raspberries, kirsch and a floral/honeysuckle character that one associates with white wines. Full-bodied and voluptuously textured with silky tannin, this beauty is reminiscent of the 1997 and 1991 La Mouline."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $200-300

10049 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 2009La Mouline, E. Guigal1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"...offers an insane bouquet of roasted meats, toast, spice, caramelized meats, coffee bean and deep, concentrated and layered blackberry and cassis-styled fruit. As with the 2010, it has off-the-chart richness, a stacked mid-palate and a gorgeous polish to its tannin."(100pts)6 bottles per lot $2200-3000

10051 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 2010La Mouline, E. Guigal(Wines Located in New York)"...sports a heavenly bouquet of spring flowers, incense, violets, cured meats and sweet cassis. Full-bodied, voluptuous and as seamless as they come, Syrah just doesn't get any more alluring, sexy or impressive. Give it 5-6 years and drink bottles over the following 2 decades or more."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $350-550

10053 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1999La Turque, E. Guigal3nl, 1x3 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"This wine is perfect. It is undoubtedly the greatest vintage for Guigal since 1978. Take all the characteristics I described for the wines in 1998 and 1997, then add an ethereal lightness of character, surreal aromatics, and a seamlessness that is uncanny given the massive richness and layers of flavors this wine possesses. The explosive aromatics tend to be more exaggerated in 1999. The wine is more evolved and seductive than the 1998s, but its aging potential should not be underestimated. It has at least two decades of life. In short, Guigal has performed a classic hat trick in 1999 with his La La's."(100pts)3 bottles per lot $1500-2000

10055 Hermitage - Vintage 2006J.L. Chave1nl (Wines Located in New York)"... reminds me of Chave s brilliant 1991. An incredibly subtle perfume of black raspberries, creme de cassis, camphor, and acacia flowers is followed by an elegant, concentrated wine with beautifully integrated acidity, tannin, wood, and alcohol. This seamless, gorgeously-proportioned, large-framed wine represents the definition of finesse, elegance, and terroir."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $450-600

10056 Hermitage - Vintage 2010J.L. Chave1vlwrl (Wines Located in New York)"...exhibits an opaque purple color along with an extraordinary bouquet of sweet blackberry fruit intermixed with creme de cassis, lead pencil shavings, acacia flowers, bouquet garni, meat and crushed rocks. Full-bodied and stunningly rich with laser-like precision, this is a powerful, massive yet exceptionally

well-balanced wine that should be forgotten for a decade and drunk over the following 30-40 years."(100pts)3 bottles per lot $1000-1300

10057 Hermitage Blanc - Vintage 2005J.L. Chave1lwasl, 2lscl (Wines Located in New York)"Pale gold. Fabulously complex nose evokes honeyed pear, apricot, shiso leaf and botanical herbs. Creamy orchard fruit flavors are firmed by juicy minerality, becoming brighter and more bitter with air. This has the texture of a serious red wine, offering dense, chewy pear, yellow plum and peach skin flavors and picking up licorice and toasted nuts on the long, sappy finish, which ends with a whiplash of smoky minerals. Does this ever let up? An incredible young wine."(97pts IWC)2 bottles per lot $300-400

10058 Messorio - Vintage 2001Le Macchiole4bn (Wines Located in New York)"The 2001 Messorio, 100% Merlot, is not quite at the level of the 1997, one of the most perfect wines ever made in Tuscany, but it is pure sumptuousness and volume from start to finish. Perfectly ripe and sweet, dense and voluminous but, oh, so velvety, an unending cascade of ravishing, spicy fruit, this is Tuscan Merlot at its best and another wine with two decades of life ahead."(97pts)4 bottles per lot $600-800

It is sweet, medium to full-bodied, and deep, as well as structured, and a Bordeaux-like tannic profile in the finish."(91pts)2 bottles per lot $180-240

10097 Chablis - Vintage 2011

Les Preuses, Domaine Dublere(Wines Located in New York)"Tasted just two weeks after bottling, Pethel's 2011 Chablis Preuses was harvested already on September 12, but was extremely slow in fermentation, leading to a reluctant decision (for him) to encourage completion by warming the tank into which it had been pressed. (Ironically, as has long been done in Burgundy with admirable results even back when it was technically illegal the must had been lightly chaptalized in the course of fermentation with the aim of extending it. In the event, the finished wine is still barely 13% alcohol.) Scents of lemon, lime, and more exotic citrus mingle with musk, white truffle, lightly toasted hazelnut and intimations of ocean breeze in an arrestingly diverse and intriguing aromatic display. The maritime and citrus allusions are realized in spades on this wine's dense, lush palate, with pungent citrus oils and piquancy of pips spiking an amalgam of oyster liqueur and lemon juice, leading to a finish of nearly eye-watering and certainly salivary gland-milking intensity brine, chalk, iodine, and myriad ineffable mineral elements leaving a near-indelible impression. This youthfully brash yet rich Preuses is almost sure to reveal more of the site's alluring exoticism and continue to dazzle through at least 2025."(95pts)6 bottles per lot $300-400

10243 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1998La Crau, Vieux Telegraphe1x12 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"...is the greatest Vieux Telegraphe that was produced. It has taken a good decade for this wine to shed its tannins and come out of a dormant, closed period. It has finally emerged, and notes of iodine, seaweed, black currants, incense, and sweet cherries as well as hot rocks jump from the glass of this full-bodied, powerful wine. It possesses considerable elegance and purity, along with loads of raspberries and incense, in a round, juicy, rich style that is just emerging from the closet."(95pts)12 bottles per lot $700-950

10249 Hermitage - Vintage 1989Le Greal, M. Sorrel6lbsl, 4nl, 2ltal, 1tc, 1 bottle different importer (WinesLocated in New York)"I suspect this is one of those nearly immortal examples of the vintage that will last for 40-50 years. How often can one say that about modem-day Bordeaux or Burgundies? The color is black/purple, the nose reluctantly offers up smells of tar and spices (including soy), smoke, coffee, and cassis. In the mouth, there is a heady, chewy ripeness, extraordinary presence, and an almost massive amount of weight and fruit, all crammed into a well-delineated, rich, backward, tannic, sublime wine that is a benchmark example of red Hermitage."(95pts)6 bottles per lot $500-700

10250 Hermitage - Vintage 1989Monier de la Sizeranne, M.

It is an organically made, unfined, unfiltered wine that is drinking surprisingly well. The dark ruby/purple color exhibits no signs of age. The bouquet leaps from the glass, offering up aromas of cassis, minerals, smoky oak, and herbs. In the mouth, this rich, powerful, concentrated, superripe wine offers succulence and delineation.

An awesomely concentrated, full-bodied, and enormously weighty and massive wine, its tough-textured, tannic yet impressively long finish suggests that considerable cellaring is required."(93pts)2 bottles per lot $180-240

10252 Hermitage - Vintage 1990Monier de la Sizeranne, M. Chapoutier5lbsl, 1wasl, 3lstl (Wines Located in New York)"The color is a dark purple, and with coaxing, the super ripe nose of cassis, licorice, minerals, and spices has begun to emerge. This full-bodied, tannic wine was aged in 60% new oak casks. It possesses copious quantities of black fruit flavors, a chewy texture, and very fine length.

1990, 2000, and down the road, some of the more recent vintages such as 2005, 2009 and 2010 should come close to matching the 1989's extraordinary concentration and undeniable aging potential.

I have tasted this vintage several times and it remains one of the best Pomerols in what was a strong year for the appellation. Deep in color, this particular bottle of 1971 Trotanoy has a lovely saline, brine-tinged bouquet that is powerful considering its age. Later it offers up subtle cassis and mint aromas. The palate is very well balanced with superb depth and vigor. It is a little more masculine than previous bottles, and interestingly, there is less flesh than the 1975, which has the upper hand on this occasion. There is a lovely melted finish with tobacco lingering on the aftertaste. I have had better bottles, but this is still a fantastic Pomerol. Tasted September 2012."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $1200-1600

Full-bodied, rich, decadent and unctuous on the palate, this beauty gives up fabulous notes of dark fruits, dusty soil, licorice, roasted herbs and toasted spice. It needs a short decant if drinking anytime soon, and will continue drinking nicely through 2026."(96pts)12 bottles per lot $600-800

10344 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2003cuvée Reservee, Domaine du Pegau(Wines Located in New York)"...stands out as one of the all-time great wines made by Laurence Feraud and her father, Paul. I remember first tasting it from a large tank as it was still fermenting and it was already impressive! It is a full-bodied, powerful wine that must tip the scales at close to 15.5% natural alcohol. I don't think this big, chewy, voluptuously textured wine will ever close down. Dark plum/garnet with the classic Provencal display of garrigue, lavender, pepper, kirsch and Asian plum sauce, this full-throttle wine has splendid concentration, silky tannins, and a very voluptuous texture."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $80-110

licorice, incense and a touch of graphite.

Stylistically, it shares many attributes with the 1990 and 1997, although in my view it is more elegant than those wines. There is an immediacy about the 2007 that is highly appealing, and which will make the wine accessible relatively early.

With unbelievable intensity, a great, full-bodied mouthfeel, stunning purity, a subtle hint of wood, but no hard edges, this is one 2009 that does not have that broodingly tannic structure that is common in this vintage.

10361 Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2013Hillside Select(Wines Located in New York)"...will probably hit the magic three-digit score, but it is a more backward style of wine, although probably even more concentrated than the 2012, and that's saying something. Fabulous potential of 30-50 years is evident in this profound bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon that is inky blue/black to the rim and offers up notes of charcoal embers, scorched earth, blackberries, cassis, blueberries, a hint of coffee, and background barrique smells. Massively concentrated but incredibly elegant and poised, this is a wine of great energy and vibrancy."(98+pts)1 magnum per lot $450-600

10381 Château Pichon Baron - Vintage 1990Pauillaclstl (Wines Located in New York)"The 1990 Pichon-Longueville Baron has always been one of my benchmark wines, one that never ceases to perform. Now at 27 years of age, it is clearly at its peak, and what a wondrous thing it is. Now showing some bricking on the rim, the bouquet is utterly sublime, with red berries, cedar, touches of graphite, crushed rose petals and incense. You just want to become enveloped by these aromas. The palate is perfectly balanced, perhaps not as structured as it once showed since the tannins have mellowed, but what you get is a Pauillac relishing its secondary phase, which is almost Burgundy-like in terms of mouthfeel. Suffused with tension, it gains weight in the mouth toward the slightly tart finish. It is a Pichon Baron that only knows how to give sophisticated drinking pleasure. I once wrote that Pichon Baron is better than many 1990 First Growth, and that is a statement I have no reason to change. Tasted April 2017."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $220-300

10387 Château Lafaurie Peyraguey - Vintage 1986Sauternes4lstl, 4sdc (Wines Located in New York)"A wonderful bouquet of pineapples, smoky nuts, honeysuckle, and other flowers soars from the glass. In the mouth, the wine is rich, with the essence of apricots, pineapples, and other tropical fruits. The acidity is crisp, giving the wine great definition and clarity. The finish is sweet, honeyed, and long. This beautifully made Sauternes is one of my favorites from the 1986 vintage."(92pts)4 bottles per lot $160-240

2stvl, 1nl (Wines Located in New York)"Perhaps the greatest Beaucastel ever produced. Has the class and structure of a great vintage of Mouton-Rothschild.

10393 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1990Château de Beaucastel2lstl (Wines Located in New York)"Two great back to back vintages are the 1990 and 1989.

Lush, opulent, and full-bodied, it is a fully mature, profound Beaucastel that will last another 15-20 years."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $320-450

10394 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2000Domaine de la Vieille Julienne6wc (Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Châteauneuf du Pape (2000 cases) is a superb, dense purple-colored offering with fabulously ripe black raspberry and cherry fruit (a Rayas-like essence of black fruit character) intermixed with a floral note. Succulent, full-bodied, and seamless, with a sensational mid-palate as well as a 45-second finish, it will drink well young (because of low acidity and incredibly ripe fruit), but last for 15-18 years."(92-94pts)6 bottles per lot $240-320

10396 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2009Collection Charles Giraud, Domaine St. Prefert(Wines Located in New York)"What I tend to think of as the top cuvée, although it is not that certain when you taste these wines next to each other, is the Châteauneuf du Pape Collection Charles Giraud. The 2009, which is showing better from bottle than it did last year, is a wonderfully complex wine made from 60% Grenache and 40% Mourvedre. (The Grenache comes from 80-year-old vines aged in concrete, and the Mourvedre from 60-year-old vines aged in 600-litre demi-muids). This wine was utterly perfect in 2007, and I think the 2009 is another fabulous wine. Complex notes of licorice, incense, lavender, new saddle leather, blackberry and kirsch along with some tree bark and roasted meats are all present in this complex, fragrant wine, which is full-bodied, dense, rich and capable of improving."(95+pts)

10400 Hermitage - Vintage 1990J.L. Chavelscl, lstvl (Wines Located in New York)"1990 is the Hermitage appellation's greatest vintage since 1978, and maybe since 1961. I have been tasting Chave's Hermitage since the great 1978 vintage, and the black-colored 1990 is unquestionably the most massive and concentrated wine he has yet produced. Perhaps the real difference between it and the splendid 1989 is that the 1990 exhibits a more roasted character to its nose, as well as a bit more tannin and concentration in the mouth. Except for that, they are both mind-boggling, monumental bottles of red Hermitage."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $700-1000

10402 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2006Clos des Papes, P. Avril(Wines Located in New York)"...is one of the two or three candidates for the wine of the vintage. An extraordinarily great wine, the 2006 is far superior to the 2005, which was amazing, and while made in a different style, is as great as the 2003, and such legends as 1990 and 1978. Fashioned from a minuscule 21 hectoliters per hectare, and tipping the scales at 15.2% natural alcohol, the 2006 boasts a dense ruby/purple color to the rim, in addition to an extraordinary bouquet of melted licorice, spring flowers, raspberries, black currants, spice box, and earth. In the mouth, it is utterly profound full-bodied and multidimensional with astonishing purity, length, equilibrium, and intensity."(98pts)12 bottles per lot $700-950

10403 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Clos des Papes, P. Avril(Wines Located in New York)"One of the great vintages from this estate, surpassing even the 1990, 2000, 2001, 2003, and maybe the 2010 (time will tell with this one), the 2007 Châteauneuf du Pape from Vincent Avril delivers everything you could want from a wine. Full-bodied, intense and beautifully

concentrated, with plenty of muscle and depth, it shows the hallmark elegance and purity of the estate, with sensational notes of kirsch liqueur, raspberries, incense, smoked meats and Asian spices. The blend is the normal 65% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre, 10% Syrah and the rest a mix of permitted varieties, brought up all in older foudre, and it's just now entering its prime drink window and has another two decades of longevity."(100pts)2 half-bottles per lot $120-160

10404 Hermitage - Vintage 1990La Chapelle, P. Jaboulethstl, wc (Wines Located in New York)"Spectacular aromatics offer up aromas of incense, smoke, blackberry fruit, cassis, barbecue spice, coffee, and a touch of chocolate. As it sits in the glass, additional nuances of pepper and grilled steak emerge. There is extraordinary freshness for such a mammoth wine in addition to abundant tannin, an amazing 60-second finish, and a level of glycerin and thick, fleshy texture that have to be tasted to be believed."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $500-700

10422 Quinta do Noval Vintage Port - Vintage 2003(Wines Located in New York)"The Quinta do Noval Vintage 2003 has a gorgeous raisin, fig and clove-scented bouquet with more freshness than the whole of Pomerol combined. As Christian Seely quipped, "the vines are accustomed to the heat". It unfolds in the glass, gaining vigor, if not complexity, with touches of leather, California raisin and dried flower emerging.

10424 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port - Vintage 2011(Wines Located in New York)"The palate is sweet and sensual on the entry, plush and opulent, with copious black cherries, boysenberry and cassis fruit, curiously more reminiscent of Fonseca! It just glides across the palate with a mouth-coating, glycerine-tinged finish that has a wonderful lightness of touch, demonstrating how Vintage Port is so much more accessible in its youth nowadays."(96-98pts)3 half-bottles per lot $120-160

However, it has proven to be nearly as prodigious. One of the hottest years in Bordeaux, 1990, a vintage of enormous yields, even dwarfing yields in 1985 and 1982, produced a fabulously open-knit, seemingly fast track La Mission that, at age 22, shows no signs of fading or losing its grip. The color is slightly more

mature and evolved than the 1989's, exhibiting a lighter rim and a less dark blue/ruby/purple hue. Classic La Mission-Haut-Brion aromatics of camphor, licorice, scorched earth, hot bricks, barbecue, cassis, blueberry and kirsch are well displayed."(99pts)1 bottle per lot $500-700

10427 Corton - Vintage 2013Coche-Dury1lwisvl, 1nl, 1sdc, 2ssos (Wines Located in New York)"...relatively refined thanks in large part to the fine-grained tannins, all wrapped in an overtly stony and beautifully long finish. While this is indisputably a wine of focused power and taut muscularity along with a touch of youthful austerity, it isn't rustic or hard. I consider this to be a considerable achievement in a vintage like 2013 where much of the Hill of Corton was so badly hammered by hail. In sum, if you can find a bottle, don't hesitate!"(93pts BH)2 bottles per lot $3200-4500

10428 Musigny - Vintage 2001Vieilles Vignes, Comte de Voguesdc (Wines Located in New York)"One of the finest wines of the vintage, this is simply a spectacular effort that has captured every bit of the potential it originally displayed in cask. Restrained and backward nose of a fantastically complex mix of blackberries, spice, cedar, soy, anise and dried herbs followed by full-bodied, multi-layered flavors of amazing length. Opulent and lavish yet all remains exquisitely balanced and this is astonishingly precise. A real stunner of a wine that is as classy and graceful as they come. As good and classy as the '02 if not quite as structured."(96pts BH)1 bottle per lot $450-600

10429 Vosne Romanée - Vintage 2010Aux Malconsorts, Dujaclbsl, lwrl, nl (Wines Located in New York)"An intensely floral nose of cool Asian style spice notes merges with dark berry fruit liqueur, kirsch, earth and stone nuances where the minerality is also reflected by the big, rich and sleekly muscular large-scaled flavors. There is excellent concentration to the mid-palate that oozes dry extract that imparts a textured mouth feel to the driving and wonderfully persistent finish."(94pts BH)1 bottle per lot $320-500

10430 Bonnes Mares - Vintage 2003G. Roumier(Wines Located in New York)"Deep, earthy aromas of black fruits can be discerned in its complex nose.

10433 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 2010Coche-Durysdc (Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Coche-Dury Corton Charlemagne was recently released, later than other younger vintages, and the Bad Boy was eager to try it. That smoky, sexy, signature Coche nose oozed out the glass. It was very young, but very vibrant. It was rich and tasty with nice spice but a wintry chill, as it was a bit shut down in the middle. While a touch shy, it was still a wicked game. Its yellow sunshine started to thaw its icy edges and reassured me that Spring was coming soon. The AG found it sublime but forget about em for a while.' I think one of the ladies found it yum'.(97+pts JK)1 bottle per lot $3500-5000

10436 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2003Château Rayasltl (Wines Located in New York)"...has gone from strength to strength and now looks to be the finest vintage since the monumental 1995. Deep ruby to the rim with that classic Rayas nose of flowers, kirsch liqueur, black raspberries, crushed rocks, and minerals, the wine is dense and concentrated, with a broad, savory mouthfeel, sweet yet silky tannin, fabulous persistence, and a blockbuster finish that just goes on and on."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $300-450

10437 Hermitage - Vintage 1999J.L. Chavelbsl, nl (Wines Located in New York)"It is a brilliant effort.

10446 Charmes Chambertin - Vintage 1999V. Girardin5lbsl, 1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The magnificent, dark ruby-colored 1999 Charmes-Chambertin has a fresh cherry, rose, and violet-scented nose. This medium to full-bodied wine has exquisite breadth to its sweet oak-infused, cherry syrup, and perfume-flavored character. Harmonious as well as densely packed with super-ripe flavors, it possesses an impressively long, supple, and pure finish."(93-95pts)12 bottles per lot $1400-1800

10447 Musigny - Vintage 2010Vieilles Vignes, Comte de Vogue

2sdc (Wines Located in New York)"A highly spiced and intensely floral nose evidences hints of violet, lilac, wild rose and lavender along with notes of both red and black pinot fruit, kirsch, earth and stone hints that continue onto the pure and silky broad-shouldered flavors that also possess a powerful yet almost delicate mouth feel. This is a very interesting wine as the dense tannins are so fine-grained that the palate impression is like the finest satin. The driving minerality adds another element and there is a palpable sense of energy to the balanced, focused and beautifully well-delineated finish that explodes with mouth coating dry extract. This is unapologetically built to age and indeed it will require plenty of it. Succinctly put, this is breathtakingly good."(97pts BH)3 bottles per lot $2000-2800

10449 Bollinger Vintage Champagne - Vintage 2004Vieilles Vignes, Francaises(Wines Located in New York)"There is always a startling concentrated fruit which is most smiling sunny tropical in its youth. I tried my first 2004 vintage together with the generous Danish Brian who put it up against the far more deeply matured 2000 vintage. The concentration is equal and the notes may be a bit more exciting in the somewhat darker 2000 vintage. The honey-finish is the same but with a slightly more tingling youthful acidity in 2004."(96pts RJ)3 bottles per lot $1800-2400

10451 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2005Atlantis Fe 203 2C(Wines Located in New York)"Another brilliant 2005 (93% Grenache and 7% Syrah), it has put on weight and seems to be developing more complexity. California's cooler year seems to have given all the top 2005s loads of perfume and distinctive aromatics. Oodles of kirsch, licorice, charcoal and floral notes along with some blacker fruit characteristics jump from the glass of this dense bluish/purple wine. Medium to full-bodied, yet extraordinarily elegant for a Grenache, with beautiful purity in its hints of white chocolate and forest floor and its admirably textured, long finish, this wine is still young but approachable thanks to its aromatics fireworks..."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $260-350

10452 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2011Dark Blossom(Wines Located in New York)"...possesses gorgeous dark berry fruit, licorice, chocolate and exotic floral qualities on the nose. A blend of 75% Grenache, 12.5% Syrah, 11.5% Mourvedre and a splash of Roussanne (aged 22 months mostly in neutral oak), this full-bodied, incredibly textured barrel sample has fantastic mid-palate depth, sweet tannin and a blockbuster finish."(97pts)2 bottles per lot $320-450

10453 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2013Jusqu'a l'os(Wines Located in New York)"...displays a medium to deep garnet color and rock star vibrant red currant and black raspberry scents with hints of licorice, mocha, Indian spices and peppered salami plus oh-so-fragrant and seductive touches of potpourri and chargrill."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $400-550

10454 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2007Pictureslscl (Wines Located in New York)"2007 Pictures Grenache: A blend of 87% Grenache, 11.5% Syrah, and 1.5% Viognier, this wine has wonderful floral notes intermixed with black raspberries, black cherries, licorice, graphite and some camphor. In the mouth, more white chocolate notes appear, along with meatiness and some silky tannins. Its great purity, density and richness make me think this wine could even improve a few points and flirt with perfection. This stunning wine should drink nicely for another 10-15 years."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $200-300

10455 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2014Shakti(Wines Located in New York)"...comes largely from the Cumulus Vineyard, with smaller portions from Eleven Confessions, the Third Twin and Bien Nacido. Aged almost entirely in neutral barrels (6% new), it has a supple, sexy profile as well as killer base notes of black raspberries, cassis, ground herbs and violets."(96-98pts)2 bottles per lot $400-500

10456 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2012Stein(Wines Located in New York)"Starting with the Grenache release, the 2012 Grenache Stein is a blend of 76% Grenache, 16% Syrah and 8% Mourvedre, aged in 14% new French oak (15% was in concrete), that comes mostly from the estate's Eleven Confessions Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills, but also includes grapes from the Cumulus, Third Twin (Syrah) and Bien Nacido vineyards. Checking in at 15.7% alcohol, it's no lightweight, yet it has considerable elegance in its sweet blackcurrants, white pepper, licorice, baking spices and hints of violet-like aromas and flavors. Possessing the hallmark purity of the estate, it's full-bodied, concentrated, rich and textured, with

sweet tannin barely noticeable on the finish. I don't think it's one of the greatest Grenaches from the estate, yet it's still an incredible effort that will benefit from short-term cellaring and have 15-20 years or more of overall longevity."(97pts)2 bottles per lot $320-450

10457 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2008The Duel2lscl, 1crc (Wines Located in New York)"...boasts extraordinary richness, power and sheer depth. Tobacco, leather, mint and spices are woven together in this large-scaled Grenache. There is plenty of intensity here, but the 2008 has just a touch less aromatic definition than the very finest wines at Sine Qua Non. I imagine some of that may be the result of extended aging in oak. The 2008 is 82% Grenache, 14% Syrah, 2% Viognier and 1% Roussanne, all from the Eleven Confessions Vineyard in Santa Rita Hills."(97pts)3 bottles per lot $750-1000

10458 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2008The Line(Wines Located in New York)"2008 The Line: This wine was just released in April of this year, and is a blend of 87.5% Grenache, 11% Syrah, and 1.5% Viognier, with 21% whole clusters used in the Grenache component. Seventy-eight percent of it came from the 11 Confessions Vineyard and the balance from Bien Nacido and the White Hawk. It is no measly wine at 15.5% alcohol, but it displays extraordinary berry fruit and kirsch notes intermixed with lavender and other floral components. Intense, full-bodied, voluptuously textured, and stunningly pure, with no real noticeable oak (21% new French oak was used, most of it the larger demi-muids), this beauty has put on weight and is showing additional complexity since I first tasted it. Anticipated maturity: now-2023."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $200-280

10459 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2005The Naked Truth(Wines Located in New York)"The dense ruby/plum/purple-colored Naked Truth reveals an extraordinary bouquet of sweet black raspberries, boysenberries, kirsch, licorice, pepper, and spice. Full-bodied with noteworthy concentration, freshness, texture, and length, it is a tour de force as well as a mind-boggling example of Grenache that is likely to turn heads, but how many wine lovers have the guts, courage, and are willing to put up with the tiny yields and challenging maturity curve of Grenache in California to pull off something like this? Not many."(99pts)1 bottle per lot $450-600

10460 Sine Qua Non Grenache - Vintage 2009Upside Down(Wines Located in New York)"Seventy-two percent came from the 11 Confessions estate vineyard, 22% from the Cumulus estate vineyard (the source for Next of Kyn) and the balance from the

Bien Nacido Vineyard. It is a big wine at 15.7% alcohol and seems to show surprising amounts of tree bark and mushroom notes for the tiny quantity of Mourvedre."(94-96pts)1 bottle per lot $180-240

10461 Sine Qua Non Pinot Noir - Vintage 2004Covert Fingerslwisl (Wines Located in New York)"The knockout, deep ruby/purple/plum 2004 Covert Fingers Pinot Noir exhibits a slightly restrained nose revealing sweet cranberry and cassis aromas interwoven with hints of flowers, charcoal, and oak, a savory, broad texture, and an opulent, voluptuous finish. This beauty should drink well for a decade or more."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $240-320

10462 Sine Qua Non Pinot Noir - Vintage 2003Omegalscl, crc, ssos (Wines Located in New York)"The top-notch 2003 Pinot Noir Omega Shea Vineyard offers up beautiful aromatics of raspberries, plums, blueberries, and flowers. This deeply fruity, medium to full-bodied Pinot boasts tremendous opulence, a sweet mid-palate, admirable purity, and a seamless finish. Drink it over the next 5-7 years. After 2003, Elaine and Manfred Krankl will no longer produce a Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir due to the logistical problems of moving fruit from Oregon to their winery in Ventura. "(93pts)1 magnum per lot $600-800


10464 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 200517th Nail in My Cranium1noc (Wines Located in New York)"Black as a moonless night, the 2005 17th Nail reveals a stunning nose of spring flowers intermixed with creme de cassis, blackberries, charcoal, graphite, and hints of lard and barbecue spices. Dense, with an endless (and I mean endless) finish, remarkable purity, and layer upon layer of flavor, but no sense of heaviness or flabbiness, this prodigious Syrah should evolve for 15 or more years."(100pts)2 bottles per lot $1600-2200

10465 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2005Atlantis Fe 203 1Blgsl (Wines Located in New York)"An extraordinarily flowery nose interwoven with scents of blueberries, blackberries, incense, and graphite soars from the glass. Although not the biggest or most concentrated Syrah Krankl has made, it is one of the most nuanced, elegant, and complex. It remains full-bodied, but builds incrementally on the palate, and comes across as elegant and delicate, especially when compared to many California Syrahs. Nevertheless, the intensity is mind-boggling, and the finish lasts for nearly a minute."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $260-350

10466 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2008B20nl (Wines Located in New York)"...explodes onto the palate with a rush of dark fruit, licorice and leather.

10467 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2011Dark Blossom1lstl (Wines Located in New York)"One of the shining successes in the vintage, it's a full-bodied, concentrated and layered Syrah that has awesome aromatics of blackcurrants, Peking duck, pepper, licorice and charcuterie in its seamless, thrillingly pure profile. As with Manfred's other 2011s, the tannins are certainly present, yet they're sweet, polished and have no hard edges."(99pts)2 bottles per lot $350-480

10468 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2002Just For The Love Of Itltl (Wines Located in New York)"It boasts a provocative perfume of Crème de cassis, toast, blackberries, licorice, barbecue spice, and exotic floral scents. Extremely full-bodied, with fabulous intensity, great purity, awesome length, and a finish that lasts over a minute, this classic is a must purchase. Already accessible..."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $600-800

10469 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2007Labelslscl (Wines Located in New York)"The recently released 2007 Syrah Labels (89% Syrah, 7% Grenache, and 4% Viognier) comes from the 11 Confessions Estate Vineyard (57%), a small amount from the home estate vineyard in Oak View called Cumulus, and the rest from purchased fruit grown in the White Hawk Vineyard in Los Alamos and the Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria. A sensational effort, it is performing even better out of bottle than it did from barrel. An opaque purple color is accompanied by beautiful notes of charcoal, acacia flowers, blueberries, blackberries, graphite, and subtle smoke. With great fruit, tremendous texture, and full-bodied power, it is locked and loaded. This cuvée should provide great drinking in addition to some provocative discussions over the next 10-15 years."(98+pts)1 bottle per lot $200-240

10470 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2013Le Supplement(Wines Located in New York)"Coming entirely from the Eleven Confessions Estate Vineyard and composed of 89% Syrah, 6% Petite Sirah, 3% Grenache and 2% Viognier, using 28% whole cluster, the 2013 Syrah Le Supplement is just starting to evolve into beguiling earthy/meaty tertiary notes with suggestions of sandalwood, mossy bark, black soil, patchouli and salami over a core of blackberry compote, preserved plums, mincemeat pie and star anise

with a touch of dried lavender. Rich, concentrated and decadent, the full-bodied, opulent palate explodes with black fruits preserves peppered by meaty/savory nuances and culminating in epically lingering exotic spice notes. 866 cases, 228 magnums and 30 double magnums were produced."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $400-550

10471 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2014Piranha Water Dance1ltl (Wines Located in New York)"...sports an inky blue color to go with lots of minerality, notes of cassis, violets and pepper, full-bodied richness and a surprisingly serious, structured, even masculine vibe on the palate."(97-100pts)2 bottles per lot $400-500

10472 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2004Poker Facenl (Wines Located in New York)"Boasting classic blackberry, creme de cassis, charcoal, acacia flower, and subtle background toasty oak notes, it possesses a fabulous texture, beautiful richness and purity, and a finish that lasts nearly a minute. It is a wine of enormous richness, multiple dimensions, and unreal purity."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $450-600

10473 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2012Stock(Wines Located in New York)"A step up from the Grenache, the blockbuster-styled 2012 Syrah Stock checks in as a blend of 84% Syrah, 7% Grenache, 6% Petit Sirah, and the rest Viognier and Mourvedre, that was fermented with 32% whole clusters and aged in just over half new French oak. It offers stunning notes of blackcurrants, cassis, smoked meats, ground pepper and wild herbs to go with a full-bodied, unctuous, layered, yet always graceful and elegant feel on the palate. Nicely structured, with perfect overall balance, it still has the open-knit character of the vintage, yet has plenty of underlying structure, which at the moment is slightly hidden by the wine's lavish fruit. It will be better in 2-3 years, and have two decades of overall longevity."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $350-500

10474 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2010Stockholm Syndrome(Wines Located in New York)"...offers an incredible array of sweet dark fruits, cassis, white chocolate, licorice and hints of bacon fat that meld perfectly with its full-bodied, seamless, layered and impeccably put-together palate.

10482 Château Ausone - Vintage 1990St. Emilion1bn, 2lbsl, 1nl (Wines Located in New York)"With its excellent richness, an exotic, kinky, oriental spice component, and a rich, mineral character, as well as admirable concentration and length, I even prefer it to the impressive 1989, and have to believe that in 20-40 years it will rival the great 1982 and 1983."(92pts)2 bottles per lot $650-900

10483 Château Cheval Blanc - Vintage 1990St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"...a complex bouquet of tobacco leaf, Christmas fruitcake, sweet black fruits, bordering on fig and plum, but no hint of overripeness, and notions of new saddle leather, mint, and incense. The gorgeously expressive aromatics are followed by a full-bodied wine revealing abundant glycerin as well as elevated alcohol, but it is not hot, and nothing is out of place."(98+pts)1 bottle per lot $750-1000

10484 Château Grand Puy Lacoste - Vintage 2000Pauillac(Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Château Grand Puy Lacoste is an exceptional wine from Xavier Borie. It has a brilliant nose of blackberry, crushed stone, graphite and cedar. Putting it to one side for ten to 15 minutes reveals subtle mint-like aromas that whisk you straight to Pauillac. The palate is smooth and silky, cloaking the tannic frame of this GPL so that you barely notice it. But that will stand it in good stead for the long-term, the cornerstone of all great wines from this estate. Then there is that hint of spice on the aftertaste the show ain't over yet. Served alongside a magnum of Pichon Baron 2000, I would say that at the moment, it does not quite possess the same level of precision. However, it remains a magnificent Pauillac to cherish long-term. Tasted January 2016."(95pts)2 bottles per lot $160-220

10486 Château d'Yquem - Vintage 1971Sauternesbsl, tl, sdc, beautiful amber color (Wines Located in New York)"Served from an ex-Château bottle. I have always stood by the 1971 Château d'Yquem as being one of the most seriously underrated vintages of that decade. I feel completely vindicated in this view as I batted away the 1967 Yquem when tasted at the Château and entranced its audience. This great Yquem was born during 10 days from October 6, when warm and humid conditions caused an outbreak of botrytis. It was a small crop of just 228 barrels. Slightly deeper in color than the 1982 Yquem tasted alongside, it is blessed with a truly spellbinding nose that has such energy and frisson that you don't know where to look. You can detect Mirabelle, ripe Satsumas, citrus peel and beeswax. The palate is vibrant, animated and simply electrifies the mouth upon entry. The 1971 has immense concentration, while the almost Tokaji Aszu-like finish is beautifully poised. This is simply an outstanding Yquem that shows absolutely no sign of reaching the end of its drinking plateau. Drink now-2040+. Tasted March 2014."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $350-450

Someone hastily said, it s walking the Krug, meaning it was showing better, but I found it closer qualitatively despite the obvious stylistic differences. Its finish was also explosive and full of earth, breed and length. King Angry Ray noted, the fruit is so pure, you don t even notice the lack of dosage. The Clos St. Hilaire had the complexity of a quarry full of all types of rocks, minerals and vitamins, possessing incredible acidity, structure and length. Flavors of anise developed, and the finish gained this novocaine-like complexity in this numbingly good Champagne. I asked Ray if he thought this was better than Krug, and he succinctly observed, Just different. More red fruit here. The Hilaire more so than the first two bubblies needs time to age; they all will benefit by age, but the Hilaire seemed to be the most brooding, complex and least approachable overall."(97+pts JK)3 bottles per lot $900-1400

Inky blue/purplish fruit, spice, lavender, licorice and menthol all develop in the glass, but it is the wine's textural richness and intensity that stand out most. As good as the 2015 is today, it is going to need at least 15-20 years to be at its very best. Is there anything more I can ask of the 2015? No, there is not. This is a tremendous showing.

"For the first time in his career, Henri Bonneau produced a cuvée spéciale in 1990. The vintage was so extraordinary he let one parcel of Grenache vines hang until the sugars were over 30%. In essence, this is a late harvest Châteauneuf du Pape with 16.5% natural alcohol and 3 grams residual sugar. It took three years to ferment on its wild yeasts and, after aging in cask and foudre for more than four years, it was bottled without filtration. To say this wine will last for 25-30 years is an understatement. When I asked Bonneau what he would serve with such a powerful, rich wine, he spent the next twenty minutes fantasizing about possible match-ups. If readers want to taste the quintessential Henri Bonneau style, as well as how exciting (and exaggerated) Grenache can be when made from such a degree of ripeness and tiny yields, this wine should not be missed."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $850-1100

10616 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011Marcassin Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"...has sweet berry fruit, roasted herbs, incense, a touch of background wood spice and foresty notes all present in this medium-bodied, slightly lighter style of Pinot Noir from Marcassin. This was a challenging vintage, but the wines turned out outstanding, and very Burgundian."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $170-220

10617 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2010Three Sisters Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Pinot Noir Three Sisters Vineyard wraps around the palate with juicy red berries, flowers, hard candy and fresh mint. A silky, voluptuous wine, the 2010 perfectly captures the essence of the Martinelli house style. Hints of star anise, spice and subtle earthiness give the 2010 an attractive exoticism, while sweet floral notes add lift on the finish."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $150-180

10618 Occidental Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011cuvée Catherine, Occidental Station Vineyard6lwrl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2011 Pinot Noir Occidental Station Cuvée Catherine is a real stunner. Still incredibly primary, the 2011 is built on a serious core of fruit. Voluptuous yet medium in body, the 2011 impresses for its balance and sheer purity. The 2011 has developed quite a bit since I last tasted it, but the style remains one of fruit density. Readers should give the 2011 another year or two in bottle. What a fabulous wine this is. Occidental is Steve Kistler's new Pinot Noir project, which is starting essentially as a spin-out from Kistler Vineyards. Steve Kistler remains CEO of Kistler Vineyards and very much in charge of day to day operations."(97pts VM)8 bottles per lot $750-900

10619 Occidental Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011cuvée Elizabeth, Bodega Headlands Vineyard4lwrl (Wines Located in New York)"Whereas the Cuvée Catherine is built on fruit, the 2011 Pinot Noir Bodega Headlands Cuvée Elizabeth is a much more inward, structured wine. Here the flavors are bright, precise and endowed with considerable energy. Cranberry, pomegranate, crushed rocks, rose petals and savory herbs are all supported by veins of underlying acidity and minerality that should allow the 2011 to develop beautifully in bottle. All of the 2011 Pinots have really blossomed over the last year, but none to the extent of the Cuvée Elizabeth, which today is stunning."(97pts VM)4 bottles per lot $480-600

In fact, it is an exceptional example of Pichon-Baron produced during a period when this estate was best known for the mediocrity of its wines. The 1982 reveals a dense, opaque ruby/purple/garnet color, and a huge nose of cedar, sweet cassis, and spice.

10672 Dominus - Vintage 2005(Wines Located in New York)"This blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot (note that rarely is any Merlot utilized at the historic Napanook Estate in Yountville). The alcohol, by California standards, is a relatively modest 14.1%. Blending the best of French savoir faire with the brilliant fruit purity and ripeness of Napa Valley, Moueix has turned in another tour de force that seems far superior today than it did when it was first released. This is one of the vintage's greatest wines. Dense purple and youthful, with a glorious nose of earth, blackcurrants, sweet black cherries and incense, the oak is pushed way in the background, as it is in all of the Moueix wines, and the result is a wine of terroir, of great originality and authenticity. This full-bodied classic from Dominus can be drunk now, but really won't hit its prime for another 4-5 years and last at least another two decades or more."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

10688 Kistler Pinot Noir - Vintage 2006cuvée Natalie, Silver Belt1nl, 1sdc (Wines Located in New York)"Deep red color. Loamy red berry and cherry aromas expand with air, picking up strong floral and smoky mineral qualities. The floral note gains strength with air and carries onto the palate, adding complexity to the wine's deep, chewy cherry and dark berry flavors. This is like two wines in one, with a high-pitched nose and a deeper, weightier palate. The finish strongly echoes the cherry and mineral notes and refuses to let up. This wine has more Swan clone than the other pinots."(94pts IWC)2 bottles per lot $200-260

10689 Kistler Pinot Noir - Vintage 2007cuvée Natalie, Silver Belt(Wines Located in New York)"Following the brilliant success of Kistler's 2007s, Steve Kistler and his sidekick, Mark Bixler, deserve kudos for what they have achieved in the more challenging 2008 vintage. This is the first vintage in which 100% of the fermentations were indigenous, and, fortunately, all their Sonoma Coast vineyards were far enough south that they were not tainted by any of the smoke from the ferocious fires that spread through Mendocino. The 2008s appear to be slightly more fruit-forward, with a touch less minerality than the 2007s. They are full-bodied, impressively endowed wines, with the Chardonnays best drunk during their first 5-7 years of life, and the Pinot Noirs during their first 10-12."(94-96pts)8 bottles per lot $1100-1600

This does a slow but inexorable build from the mid-palate to the staggeringly

long, almost painfully intense finish that simply lasts and lasts. This doesn t have the size and power of the B tard or the Montrachet but it s finer, purer and is the embodiment of sheer class.

The La Tâche 1966 is one of those wines were composing a tasting note seems futile. How can you express such a wine in words? Well, I will try. It must be considered one of the greatest La Tâche of all time. Typically of this vineyard it is a mercurial Pinot Noir that is deceptively simple upon first acquaintance. Then you notice its unbelievable delineation as scents of dark fruit, sous bois, cigar box and an exotic hint of star anise gently unfold. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins and nigh perfect acidity. There is such brightness and vigor in the 1966, allied with a sense of authority. Over time it gains precocity and there is a daring note of cough candy surfacing unexpectedly on the finish after ten minutes. This is an astonishing La Tâche that flirts with perfection."(99pts)1 bottle per lot $1800-2400

10888 Beaune Rouge - Vintage 2006Clos des Mouches, J. Drouhin(Wines Located in New York)"The Drouhin 2006 Beaune Clos des Mouches as usual reflects extensive acreage planted largely with old selection massale vines and pampered as a flagship.

Stylistically, too, this is another world from that in the glass of this year's Beaune Greves. Here we have thought-provoking complexity of animal and mineral nuances allied to a rather brooding, dark fruit fundament with a bitter herbal edge. There is spice here as well, but of a sharply penetrating and pungent sort, suggesting raw ginger and white pepper. At the same time, this shares with nearly all of the Drouhin wines of its vintage a soothing creaminess allied to an overtly lactic flavor component which I don't find disturbing or discordant, though some might. The contrast of textural allure and pungent attack persists here into a long, satisfying and stimulating finish. I would feel confident making plans for this over at least a 6 year period."(91pts)1 bottle per lot $50-60

10893 Volnay - Vintage 2010Les Fremiets, Marquis d'Angerville1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Volnay Les Fremiets is all crushed rocks, graphite, minerals and wet stones. With time in the glass the fruit gradually begins to emerge. Sweet red fruit, mint and freshly cut flowers are some of the nuances in the glass, but in the end the Fremiets remains decidedly cool and inward. A pointed, chiseled finish continues the theme to its logical conclusion. Readers will need to be especially patient here. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030."(93-95pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

This wine could be called the Musigny of Hermitage.

11282 Château Monbousquet - Vintage 1997St. Emilion2lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"I cannot lavish enough praise on the young, super-passionate proprietor of Monbousquet, Gerard Perse. Not only has he turned this moribund estate into one of St.-Emilion's most exciting properties, he has recently purchased Pavie-Decesse, Pavie, and La Clusiere. I predict he will turn these estates, particularly Pavie, into superstars. As for Monbousquet, this wine benefits from malolactic fermentation in barrel, extremely small yields of 25 hectoliters per hectare, and bottling without fining or filtration. The opaque purple-colored 1997 ratchets up the level of hedonism to considerable heights. It is an impressively-endowed wine with layers of jammy black currant, cranberry, and cassis fruit,

well-integrated toasty pain grille scents, and an unctuous texture that conceals moderate levels of sweet tannin. Unlike many wines with that "loosey-goosey" feel, this is a well-delineated, full-bodied, powerful, classic claret. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2018."(90pts)2 bottles per lot $60-80

Aromas of graphite, blackberry liqueur, Crème de cassis and smoke jump from the glass. Spectacularly concentrated and enormously endowed, with sweetness allied to ripe tannin, decent acidity, and layer upon layer of fruit and extract, this is the leading candidate for the port of the vintage."(98pts)24 half-bottles per lot $600-800

11455 Bond - Vintage 2003St. Eden(Wines Located in New York)"...offers full-bodied, sweet cigar tobacco, spice, licorice, and meaty characteristics, good richness and fatness, and huge concentration and intensity.

Performing even better from bottle than it did from barrel, it is a strong candidate for the top wine of the vintage."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $300-400

11456 Bond - Vintage 2003Vecina(Wines Located in New York)"The vineyard closest to the great Harlan Estate is Vecina, situated in the western foothills on the Oakville Crossroad overlooking the valley. From this 11-acre site, the 2003 Vecina comes closest in style to Harlan Estate, appearing like a hypothetical blend of a St. Estephe and Pauillac. A formidable wine, it reveals plenty of new saddle leather, creme de cassis, scorched earth and volcanic-like characteristics in addition to notes of blackberries, Chinese black tea and graphite. Powerful, intense and backward, it needs 2-5 years of bottle age and should last for two decades thereafter. It is a tour de force in winemaking!"(96+pts)1 bottle per lot $240-350

11457 Bryant Family Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2002(Wines Located in New York)"It exhibits a classic Bryant profile of blueberries, blackberries, chocolate, and smoky notes (100% new Taransaud barrels are utilized), a full-bodied, powerful palate, great texture, tremendous purity, and a long, heady finish with high tannin, but it is well-integrated and sweet."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $200-260

11458 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2004Special Selectionsdc (Wines Located in New York)"Even richer and fuller than the regular bottling, but at the same time hedonistically and voluptuously styled is the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection. Dense ruby/purple with low acidity and huge amounts of fruit, this is a seamless, full-bodied, classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon to drink now and over the next 15-18 years."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $140-180

11459 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2007Special Selectionsdc (Wines Located in New York)"This firm, ripe, muscular wine that's tight, deep, structured, intense and concentrated, serving up a mix of ripe currant, cassis, plum, black cherry and blackberry fruit that's clean, pure, complex and layered, with touches of anise, cedar and black licorice. Ends with chewy tannins."(96pts WS)1 bottle per lot $160-220

11460 Colgin Red - Vintage 2002IX Estatevlwisl, ssos (Wines Located in New York)"Another perfect wine, which has turned out even better than I anticipated seven years ago, is the estate wine, the 2002 IX Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Merlot, 9%

Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot from the hillsides above the winery (one of the most gorgeous vineyards I've ever seen in the world). Yields were a frightening one-half ton per acre. Like all of Colgin's 2002s, as this wine sat in the glass it seemed to change and improve every 20 seconds or so. Gorgeous black/plum/purple in color, much like the Tychson Hill, it offers up a completely different set of aromatics, ranging from Asian soy to damp forest floor to hints of mountain laurel, lavender, roasted meats, a touch of pepper, and wonderfully sweet blackberry and cassis fruit. Some charcoal and subtle barbecue smoke are also present in this extraordinary statement, which has also evolved at a relatively rapid pace. It seems fully mature by most standards yet should hold at this plateau for at least a decade. What is remarkable about all of these wines is that they were aged in 100% new French oak, but the oak has gone into total hiding."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $400-500

11461 Harlan Estate Red - Vintage 2002nl (Wines Located in New York)"...it is impossible to resist the flamboyant, extroverted 2002 Harlan Estate s charm, richness, and overall seductive personality. This profoundly complex wine exhibits notes of cedar, black currant liqueur, scorched earth, smoke, and graphite. Incredibly broad, sweet, full-bodied, opulent, and voluptuous, it literally has everything one could ever want in a great Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine This prodigious offering is worth mortgaging the farm!..."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $800-1100

11462 Sine Qua Non Syrah - Vintage 2008B 201lwisl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Syrah B-20 is a cool, inward wine graced with layers of beautifully delineated, chiseled fruit. This is a distinctly mineral, precise style relative to the more outgoing 2009, but both are striking. Floral notes add lift as the finish turns explosive with a burst of dark fruit, tar, licorice and crushed rocks. This is one of the more understated wines readers are likely to come across from Sine Qua Non. It is gorgeous when given the time to open up. The B-20 is predominantly Syrah, with 6% Grenache and 2% Viognier. About half of the Grenache was fermented with whole clusters and the wine was aged in French oak (60% new) for 26 months. The vineyard sources are 52% Eleven Confessions, 18% Cumulus, 18% Bien Nacido and 12% White Hawk. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023."(95pts)5 bottles per lot $1000-1400

leather."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $240-350

McCrea cuvée, it is an unusually elegant effort (because the acids are crisp and refreshing) that should drink beautifully for 7-8 years..."(94-96pts)2 bottles per lot $80-120

11472 Kongsgaard Chardonnay - Vintage 2004The Judge(Wines Located in New York)"...is about as fine a Chardonnay as one is likely to find in the world. The wine, as one might expect, is from the same vineyard and simply the most concentrated barrels of what is already a very concentrated wine. It just has more of everything when compared to the regular 2004 Chardonnay, but I think the most striking thing is that, from what I can tell, he is looking for even more intense minerality in the wine, and this wine certainly offers it in spades. It should age for up to a decade."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $200-280

11474 Campoleone - Vintage 1997Lamborghini(Wines Located in New York)"Yes, as you may have guessed, this 79-acre estate is owned by a member of the luxury car manufacturer. Made with Riccardo Cotarella's consultation, this 1997 is a blend of roughly equal portions of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sangiovese. Picked at high sugars, vinified dry, aged 12 months in new French oak, and bottled with neither fining nor filtration, it is a tour de force in wine-making. Unbelievable concentration combined with uncanny balance and symmetry, as well as a staggering bouquet, flavor depth, and length, make for one of the most extraordinary wine tasting experiences of 1999. The color is a saturated purple. Bursting with black fruits, spice, minerals, and character, this is a prodigious, fabulously intense wine that must be tasted to be believed. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2020."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $170-220

11475 Campoleone - Vintage 1999Lamborghini(Wines Located in New York)"The compelling 1999 Campoleone (20,000 bottles produced) was aged in 100% French oak and bottled without fining or filtration by oenologist Riccardo Cotarella. A dense opaque purple color is accompanied by scents of new saddle leather, blackberry and cassis fruit, licorice, roasted meats, and graphite. Full-bodied

and sweet, with a fabulous texture, ripe tannin, adequate acidity, and brilliant definition, this is a tour de force in winemaking."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $80-100

11476 Bond - Vintage 2001St. Eden(Wines Located in New York)"Utterly perfect, another wine that seems to have taken on a first-growth Pauillac-like character (think Mouton-Rothschild) is the 2001 St. Eden. With a remarkably perfumed nose of crushed rocks, subtle barbecue smoke, and again, cedar wood intermixed with creme de cassis and blackberry, this wine displays a phenomenally concentrated mouthfeel, full-bodied opulence, voluptuous texture, and of this trio, is certainly the closest to its apogee of full maturity. Nevertheless, it will still benefit from another 5-10 years of cellaring and keep for an additional 25-30."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $320-400

11479 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2010Blue Slide Ridge Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The medium to full-bodied, dark ruby/plum-colored 2010 Pinot Noir Blue Slide Ridge displays the blue fruit spectrum along with some raspberries, fresh mushrooms and spring flowers, a layered mouthfeel, more minerality than the explosive 2009 exhibited, outstanding ripeness and lots of personality. This is clearly a grand cru site owned by the Martinellis."(94pts)1 bottle per lot $180-220

11480 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2010Marcassin Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"...There is more acidity showing through, the fruit offering up various red and black fruits from pomegranate to plum to cassis, dark sweet cherries as well as foresty underbrush notes.

11481 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011Marcassin Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"...has sweet berry fruit, roasted herbs, incense, a touch of background wood spice and foresty notes all present in this medium-bodied, slightly lighter style of Pinot Noir from Marcassin.

11482 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2010Three Sisters Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Pinot Noir Three Sisters Vineyard wraps around the palate with juicy red berries, flowers, hard candy and fresh mint.

You certainly get a whiff of that profound potential on the horizon. Impenetrable fruit, blackberry, prune and cherry liqueur is trailed by oak spice, barbecue smoke and campfire ash. The oak element is very strong and not fully integrated yet. This is a masterful creation from one of Italy's most talented winemakers(94pts)6 bottles per lot $400-600

The tannins build on the finish, rounding out a gorgeous Brunello that achieves a brilliant combination of power and elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2022."(92pts)12 bottles per lot $1200-1600

11538 Fonseca Vintage Port - Vintage 1992nl (Wines Located in New York)"This colossal vintage port reveals a nearly opaque black/purple color, and an explosive nose of jammy black fruits, licorice, chocolate, and spices.

over a minute."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $70-100

11539 Fonseca Vintage Port - Vintage 1997bsl, lscl (Wines Located in New York)"Somewhat of a lightweight for Fonseca, but undeniably charming, this dark ruby/purple-colored wine offers a floral, exotic, flamboyant bouquet, a sweet, fleshy style, but not a great deal of weight or massiveness. Heady alcohol, sweet tannin, and a velvety texture make for a gorgeous finish."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $40-60

11540 Graham's Vintage Port - Vintage 1983lbsl, lwrl, ll (Wines Located in New York)"The 1983, like most vintage ports, seems more forward than normal but has a great depth of very ripe, viscous, unctuous, plummy, tarry fruit and significant tannin in its long finish. It is black-purple in color. I doubt that it will be either as profound or as long-lived as the great 1977, but is is certainly one of the top two or three ports of this vintage, and better than the excellent 1980."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

It does not quite have the presence of the 1997 but it has focus and breeding and, wow, leave it aside for several minutes and it repays you with intoxicating candied orange peel scents. The palate is medium-bodied, rounded and sensual on the entry with mint, orange peel, fig skin and white pepper. This is a sensational millennial Noval with the temerity to surpass the Nacional. Drink 2015-2040. Tasted January 2014."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $45-60

Lingering tones of black fruit and Oriental spice add subtle shades at the back."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $160-220

11581 Sassicaia - Vintage 2013Tenuta San Guido(Wines Located in New York)" This is a wine of excellent execution, beautiful balance and seamless intensity.

11595 Santorini - Vintage 2011Sigalas1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2011 Santorini seemed exceptional when I first tasted it, but one thing I have learned about Assyrtiko in general and Sigalas in particular is that with time they reveal more layers and show you more of what they have. They can seem quite easy to drink young sometimes (and sometimes not!), but they still simply aren't all they can be. The extra time in bottle since I've last seen this has done this a world of good. It still shows fine fruit, but the grip and texture is far superior now. It has a concentrated yet very elegant feel to it. It is transparent and persistent. Young and vibrant, it has a long life ahead. Conservative of disposition, I usually suggest that they will last a decade or so from the vintage date, but I won't be shocked if well-stored, top-vintage Sigalas makes 15 or more years the norm for the Estate's upper level wines. Windows like that encompass virtually the entire modern era of the winery, though, so let's continue to take that in stages even while expanding some drinking windows. Drink now-2024."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $120-160

True to form, the 1995 is an outstanding effort. An extremely tight but super-ripe nose of sweet fruits is followed by a massive cascade of deep, sweet, intense, tropical fruits mixed with candied apples and red currants. This full-bodied, excellently structured wine has enormous depth and concentration, as well as a long finish (flavors of cassis, apples and a touch of lemon linger for 30 seconds or more)."(93-5pts)1 bottle per lot $70-100
