211W Week 30________

19231 Château d'Yquem - Vintage 2013Sauternes1x1 Imperial banded owc (Wines Located in New York)"Firstly, you notice the color, which is a touch deeper than recent vintages at this stage. The bouquet is quite honeyed and rich for Yquem at this early juncture, with subtle scents of peach skin, white flowers, and a puff of chalk and frangipane. The palate is viscous on the entry, all about the texture at first, coating the mouth with luscious botrytized fruit. There are touches of Seville orange marmalade, fresh apricot, a hint of spice and passion fruit. This is imbued with impressive depth and weight, perhaps an Yquem that is determined to make an impression after last year-s absence. It might not possess the finesse of a top flight Yquem, but it has immense power and persistency."(95-97pts)1 Imperial per lot $2000-2800

19232 Château d'Yquem - Vintage 2016Sauternes1x1 Imperial banded owc (Wines Located in New York)"Containing 135 grams per liter of residual sugar, the pale lemon-gold colored 2016 d'Yquem leaps from the glass with honeyed apricots, pineapple, green mango, crushed rocks, candied ginger, coriander seed and citrus peel with hints of orange blossom. The palate is very tightly wound, vibrant and refreshing with layer upon layer of minerals and spices, finishing with epic poise and persistence."(98+pts)1 Imperial per lot $1600-2200

19234 Château Doisy Daëne - Vintage 2010L'Extravagance, Sauternes12x1 half bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"With 12.2% alcohol and 212 gms residual sugar, the L'Extravagant de Doisy-Daene consists of 50% Sauvignon Blanc and 50% Semillion. It has a very taut, controlled bouquet that (pardon the expression) is less extravagant than recent vintages, but is beautifully defined with touches of kiwi fruit, green apple and limestone. The palate is mellifluous on the entry, struck through with brilliant acidity, lending it such tension and freshness that is in tune with the vintage. Denis hopes to have nine barrels of this fabulous Barsac."(95-97pts)12 half-bottles per lot $1100-1500

_____________________________

19395 Andremily Syrah - Vintage 2017EABA2x3 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"Deep garnet-purple colored, it has quite a savory/meaty nose, sporting notions of salami, black

olives, tobacco, garrigue and tilled soil over a core of preserved plums and baked blueberries plus wafts of black pepper and rosemary. Full-bodied and super concentrated, the palate possesses a rock-solid structure with firm, ripe, rounded tannins and great freshness, finishing long with a minerally lift on the finish."(96-98pts)6 bottles per lot $600-800

PARCEL LOTS 19552-19554

19552 Château Grand Puy Lacoste - Vintage 2013Pauillac(Wines Located in Hong Kong)"The 2013 Grand-Puy-Lacoste has a well-defined bouquet with blackberry, wild strawberry and cedar fruit, nicely composed and delineated, not complex but harmonious. As usual, there is a conservative element to the aromatics in keeping with this estate's style. The palate is medium-bodied with appreciable mineralité on the entry. I like the edginess here, the framework and in particular the finesse that is not always apparent at Grand-Puy-Lacoste, at least at this early juncture. It might not be a long-term proposition, but it is certainly one of the finest Pauillac wines of the vintage courtesy of Xavier and Emeline Borie."(90pts)1 magnum per lot $90-120

has a vivid bouquet with animated blackberry and raspberry preserve aromas, fine mineralité and well integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red cherries and raspberry, sweet tannin, fine acidity and a juicy, quite structured finish with a generous pinch of white pepper spicing things up. This is a resounding success. Tasted September 2016."(95pts)1 magnum per lot $260-350

19593 Corton - Vintage 2013Bressandes, Poisot5hscl (Wines Located in Hong Kong)"This is both brighter and more elegant with its cool and pure nose of violets, lilac red and dark currant, earth and a hint of game. There is a lovely mouth feel to the lighter than usual middle weight flavors that terminate in a firm and mildly austere but persistent finish. This tautly muscular effort may be a bit lighter than usual but that doesn't mean that it will necessarily be accessible earlier, indeed this will need at least a decade of patience before it will be completely ready for prime time."(92pts BH)12 bottles per lot $650-850

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 $70-90

20619 Nuits St. Georges - Vintage 2018Clos des Porrets, H. Gouges1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Porrets-Saint-Georges 1er Cru was due to be racked the following week and bottled before the end of the year. It has a generous bouquet of upfront red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit, a little too ripe for my liking and when compared to previous vintages. The medium-bodied palate offers soft tannins, gentle grip and plenty of fleshy red fruit, although it is missing some grip and density toward the finish. Pleasant, but I would broach this in its youth."(88-90pts VM)12 bottles per lot $900-1200



20628 Chambolle Musigny - Vintage 2018Les Chabiots, H. Lignier(Wines Located in New York)"The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Chabiots (négoce) mingles sweet red berry fruit with notions of licorice, peonies and orange rind, framed by a subtle application of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, its refined tannins are almost entirely concealed by the wine's ample core of fruit."(90-92pts)12 bottles per lot $1600-2200

20635 Chambolle Musigny - Vintage 2016Les Bussieres, H. Sigaut1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"This presents a brooding and somewhat taciturn nose that is beautifully fresh if not particularly elegant with its array of various dark berries, earth and a whisper of spice. The palate impression of the medium-bodied flavors is also quite rich and seductive as they possess an abundance of dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the lightly stony, firm and somewhat rustic finale. Once again this is not an elegant Chambolle villages but there is no doubting the quality of the underlying material."(88-91pts BH)12 bottles per lot $650-850

Primary yet detailed nose offers crushed blackberry, black cherry, licorice, bitter chocolate, minerals and flowers. Pure, elegant and precise in the mouth, with terrific energy and thrust to

the flavors of crushed black fruits and spices. Perhaps best today on the sharply focused, gripping, palate-staining finish, which shows a captivating gingerbread spiciness. This can be tasted now thanks to its intensity and sheer personality but is built to age."(93pts VM)12 bottles per lot $450-600


20994 Niepoort Vintage Port - Vintage 20152x6 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"It has fine intensity of flavor and freshness to go with the big tannins here, making this a very serious Port on all fronts.

20999 Douro - Vintage 2017Batuta, Niepoort2x6 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"Silky, fruit forward and simple enlivening, this has a lingering finish filled with lifted fruit flavor. As always, there isn't a lot of depth, and it has an understated feel for its level. And, as tends to happen, I have a slight preference for the Redoma in the lineup."(92-94pts)12 bottles per lot $350-500

Rich, broad and full but classically dry; offers impressive volume but comes across as a bit massive and chunky. This cold, north-facing terroir can support a hot year like 2005, notes consulting winemaker Stephane Derenoncourt. Still, I would not describe this as an elegant style.

Medium-bodied, lush, and delicious, this is a pure, sweet red cherry and blackberry-flavored offering. While it does not have the power or concentration of Jadot's finest vintages of Clos St.-Jacques, this wine relies on elegance, purity, and definition. This is a gorgeous, flavorful, highly delineated effort that possesses copious quantities of supple tannin. Projected maturity: 2003-2012."(91-93pts)3 bottles per lot $900-1200

A deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by a sweet bouquet of figs, raspberries, new saddle leather, autumnal forest floor, and resiny notes. Full-bodied with beautiful purity as well as a strikingly rich mouthfeel, this seriously endowed Châteauneuf admirably conceals its 14.5% alcohol. A structured finish and impressive extract levels suggest considerable longevity. This firmly tannic, intensely concentrated 2001 boasts great aromatic and palate presence, but it remains young and unevolved."(95pts)1 magnum per lot $260-350

The wine is full-bodied and voluptuous, but once past all the glycerin and beautiful, dense fruit of this full-bodied wine, there is striking purity, elegance, finesse, and surprising freshness. Still primary, it looks set to have a long life of 20-25 or more years."(97pts)3 bottles per lot $320-420

21443 Sammarco - Vintage 1982Castello Dei Rampolla5bn, 1ts, 4vlgsl, 3gsl, 2scc, 1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"It is experiencing a perfect moment in its drinking window. Looking through The Wine Advocate archive, I see the suggestion of brett in a past review. I found absolutely no imperfections in this wine. Instead, the bouquet is generous and opulent with dark berry, spice, licorice and leather. Much of the Tignanello vineyards were replanted in the 1990s so I expect that the fruit came from younger vines. The finish is silky and long in persistency."(94pts)12 bottles per lot $2400-3200

21444 L'Apparita - Vintage 1985Castello di Ama1scc (Wines Located in New York)"A gorgeous wine, the 1985 L'Apparita is pure silk on the palate. Subtle and graceful, the 1985 impresses for many things, including its balance. Just as important, though, this first vintage of L'Apparita is still beautiful and finessed. Tasted within the context of the vintages that followed, the 1985 comes across as mature and not particularly complex, but it has nevertheless held up well over the last nearly thirty years. That is more than enough in my book for one of Italy's most groundbreaking wines."(90pts VM)3 bottles per lot $1100-1500

21445 L'Apparita - Vintage 1996Castello di Ama1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New

York)"Deep, blackish ruby, though not as saturated as the best previous vintages. Sweet and oaky on the nose, with ripe plum, vanilla and brown sugar aromas. Full and smooth on the palate, with an elegant texture; strong, ripe fruit is attractively spicy. Offers plenty of weight and length but not quite the power or extra dimension of this wine at its best. Much like the 1991 in style, but the vintage to wait for is the spectacular 1998, soon to be bottled-along with the 1992, the best vintage Ama has made to date."(90pts VM)12 bottles per lot $1800-2400

21447 Barbaresco - Vintage 1990Bricco Asili Faset, Ceretto2bn, 2ts (Wines Located in New York)"The 1990 Bricco Asili-Faset reveals a superb nose of roasted herbs and black-cherries, medium to full body, wonderfully ripe flavors, and a long, expansive, concentrated finish that exhibits no hard edges."(92pts )6 bottles per lot $1200-1600

21450 Barolo - Vintage 1999Bricco Rocche Prapo, Ceretto2x3 magnum owc's (Wines Located in New York)"Medium ruby. Deeply earthy and tarry on the nose, the Prap shows much Serralunga character in its firmly structured frame and sweet dark fruit, licorice, spice and cocoa flavors. It is the biggest of these Barolos and should be at its finest between 2009 and 2019."(91pts VM)6 magnums per lot $1300-1700

21486 Camartina - Vintage 2003Querciabella(Wines Located in New York)"At the risk of sounding like a broken record, the 2003 Camartina is a drop-dead gorgeous effort. Fat, rich and opulent, it will reward consumers with its generous super-ripe fruit, great length and beautiful overall balance. While it doesn't look to be one of the more long-lived Camartinas, with some air it is drinking beautifully today. It is a very refined effort in this vintage."(93pts VM)6 bottles per lot $380-480

21489 Geremia - Vintage 1997Rocca di Montegrossi1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"Deep ruby-garnet. Potent and weighty on the nose, with plum and floral aromas complicated by oak spices.

21498 Carter Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2015La Bam(Wines Located in New York)"The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard La Bam displays a deep garnet-purple color and expressive nose of crushed mulberries, plum preserves and cassis with suggestions of chargrill, sautéed herbs and licorice plus a touch of cedar chest. Full-bodied and built like a brick house in the mouth, it has a firm frame of grainy tannins and great freshness supporting the taut, muscular fruit, finishing with lingering aniseed and meaty notions."(98pts)

Estate cuvée, State Lane Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Estate cuvée State Lane Vineyard (a blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 48% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc) possesses a dark plum/purple color as well as notes of roasted coffee, cocoa, chocolate, black currants, sweet cherries, and subtle oak.

21513 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)6 bottles per lot $500-700

_____________________________

21574 Château La Mondotte - Vintage 1997St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"The 1997 La Mondotte is undoubtedly the wine of the vintage from Bordeaux's right bank (St.-Emilion and Pomerol), as well as a candidate for the wine of 1997. Much like its 1996 counterpart, the 1997 is the most concentrated wine I tasted. On the two occasions I had it, I was blown away by its quality. From its saturated opaque black/purple color, to its extraordinarily intense jammy blackberry/cassis liqueur-scented nose, this is a fabulous claret. Expansive and full-bodied, with exhilarating levels of extract, an opulent, unctuously-textured feel, extremely low acidity, and a 40+ second finish, this is a prodigious effort. While not quite as well-defined as the 1996, and perhaps slightly less concentrated (I'm splitting hairs here), this medium to full-bodied, showy, unbelievably dense and rich wine is another tour de force in winemaking. Projected maturity: now-2014."(94pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

21598 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2004Le Secret de Sabon, R. Sabonlbsl (Wines Located in New York)"Tightly focused, with fine-grained structure carrying spice, black tea, fig paste and raspberry ganache flavors through the long, refined, silky finish."(95pts WS)1 bottle per lot $120-160

21618 Beaune Rouge - Vintage 2017Les Tuvilains, G. Noellat1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The sophomore 2017 Beaune Les Tuvilains 1er Cru is matured in 40% new oak. The tightly knit red cherry and crushed strawberry bouquet is quite minerally and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, plenty of sweet red fruit and a slight confit note on the finish."(90-92pts VM)12 bottles per lot $420-550

21620 La Grande Rue - Vintage 2017Lamarche1x1 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"This is also quite floral with its array of violet, lavender and rose petal wisps that add considerable elegance to the very pretty mix of black pinot fruit, sandalwood and lovely spice elements. The mouthfeel of the medium weight plus flavors is finer than those of the Grands Echézeaux if not quite as powerful or muscular, all wrapped in a wonderfully long if slightly warm and austere finale."(93pts BH)1 magnum per lot $900-1200

21674 Pax Syrah - Vintage 2005Castelli-Knight Ranch2nl (Wines Located in New York)"There are 370 cases of the 2005 Syrah Castelli-Knight Ranch. No weakling at 15.7% alcohol, it comes across like a Rhône Valley Hermitage given its good acidity, structured, tannic, masculine mouthfeel, and enormous, rich, camphor-infused blackberry fruit. It requires 3-5 years of cellaring, and should keep for two decades."(93-95pts)4 bottles per lot $160-220

21695 Château Coutet - Vintage 2007Sauternes(Wines Located in New York)"Tasted single blind against its peers. The Château Coutet 2007 has a very intense bouquet with lemon curd and orange blossom mixed with clear honey. There is impressive precision here, almost crystalline. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine viscous entry, great weight and intensity with racy acidity. There is also much tension cutting through the layers of viscous fruit on the sorbet-like finish. This is a typical Coutet through and through and it should age effortlessly over 20-30 years. Tasted January 2011."(94pts)6 half-bottles per lot $220-300

21704 Château Suduiraut - Vintage 2007Sauternes(Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Suduiraut is a Sauternes that is just beginning to "motor" as it approaches its tenth birthday. The bouquet is much more open than when I last tasted this wine in 2011, with upfront honey, lemon rind and apricot blossom aromas that pack a punch. The palate is powerful and intense, layers of honeyed fruit, crisp acidity and the Sauvignon Blanc component now giving way more to Sémillon. This is a Sauternes of width and girth and as such it deserves another decade in bottle. Just superb. Tasted July 2016."(94pts)6 half-bottles per lot $200-280

21725 Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese - Vintage 2004Kiedricher Grafenberg, R. Weil3lwisl (Wines Located in New York)"Thick, dense and creamy in the mouth, it displays remarkably restrained sweetness and a wafting, delicate sense that is hard to describe. The palate is positively teeming with ocean-deep minerality and field-sized florality. This wine is one of those full immersion experiences from which your soul will emerge changed, if not saved. In the finish, there is an invigorating and animating juiciness and saltiness for all of the persistent parallel impression of creamy richness."(99pts)6 half-bottles per lot $2000-2800

21726 Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese - Vintage 2007Kiedricher Grafenberg, R. Weil(Wines Located in New York)"Exuberant aromas of caramelized peach, quince preserves and oyster shell on a bed of honeyed botrytis. Incredible density, creaminess and richness paired with a juicy, almost salty tanginess. Boasts a succulent caramel flavor and a honeyed texture yet still comes across as impressively elegant. With its palate-saturating length, this is one of the great wines of the vintage."(96pts VM)5 half-bottles per lot $1600-2200

21894 Amuse Bouche Red - Vintage 2013Vin Perdu(Wines Located in New York)"The 2013 Vin Perdu is dark, bold and juicy, with plenty of mocha, dark chocolate, grilled herbs, menthol and blackberry jam nuances. Flashy and overt, the 2013 is a terrific choice for drinking over the next handful of years. The presence of Syrah, Merlot and Petite Sirah in the blend gives the 2013 distinctly dark-leaning tonalities of fruit. The Vin Perdu or 'lost wine' is a blend of lots from several projects overseen by winemaker Heidi Barrett."(91pts VM)1 bottle per lot $80-110

Supple on entry, then creamy in the middle, with black fruit flavors carrying a rather heavy dose of oak. Undeniably sweet and round but a bit aggressive with alcohol today (the label says 14.8%). Finishes with a serious dusting of tannins."(90pts VM)6 bottles per lot $450-600

21962 Coup de Foudre Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2012(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is long on class and nuance. Here it is the wine's texture and overall depth that stand out above all else. At the same time, there is more than enough underlying structure to back up the dark, voluptuous fruit. I imagine the 2012 will drink nicely pretty much upon release, as it has plenty of vintage 2012 radiance."(91-93pts VM)3 bottles per lot $200-280

Deep, youthfully brooding cassis and dark cherry on the nose, with a strong licorice note building in the glass. Sappy black and blue fruit flavors are framed by dusty tannins and energized by a tangy mineral note. The licorice quality repeats on the finish, which is broad, sappy and impressively persistent.

22116 Château Haut Brion Blanc - Vintage 1985Graves1vhs, 6bsl, 3lscl (Wines Located in New York)"The 1985 Château Haut Brion Blanc is candidate for the best dry white Bordeaux produced that decade - period. Having tasted this nectar two or three times in recent months, I can vouch for its extraordinary intensity on the nose: candied orange peel, citrus lemon, cold wet limestone and honeysuckle notes that shimmer in the glass. It almost has a Chablis-like penetration imagine if Raveneau made white Bordeaux. The palate

is perfectly balanced and after 30 years, it as fresh as a daisy, citrus fresh, with a killer line of mineralité, squeezed lime and an almost slate-like note (try licking some to see what I mean no one will look). The tension, the depth and length of this Haut Brion Blanc are as good as you will find...if you can find it nowadays. Simply breathtaking, anyone with bottles in their cellar will be handsomely rewarded for their patience. Tasted August 2015."(98pts)3 bottles per lot $2600-3500

The addition of Serralunga fruit in the blend has added depth and structure in all of the wine's dimensions. Dark red cherry, plum, mint, rose petal, tar and licorice build into the huge, voluptuous finish. Readers who can find the 2013 should not hesitate, as it is outrageously beautiful and also one of the clear wines of the vintage. Vineyard sites are Baudana, Villero, Vignane and Merli."(98pts VM)12 bottles per lot $1500-2000

22168 La Grande Rue - Vintage 2017Lamarche1x1 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"This is also quite floral with its array of violet, lavender and rose petal wisps that add considerable

elegance to the very pretty mix of black pinot fruit, sandalwood and lovely spice elements. The mouthfeel of the medium weight plus flavors is finer than those of the Grands Echézeaux if not quite as powerful or muscular, all wrapped in a wonderfully long if slightly warm and austere finale."(93pts BH)1 magnum per lot $900-1200

22172 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2014cuvée de Mon Aieul, P.

Like all top 2014s, its charming and sweetly fruited, with classic Grenache notes of toasted spices, incense, roasted herbs and sweet red and black fruits. "(94pts)6 magnums per lot $650-850

22196 Barolo - Vintage 2016Bussia, G. Fenocchio2x6 bottle ocb's (Wines Located in New York)"A wine of tremendous character and complexity.

22215 Douro - Vintage 2017Batuta, Niepoort2x6 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"Silky, fruit forward and simple enlivening, this has a lingering finish filled with lifted fruit flavor. As always, there isn't a lot of depth, and it has an understated feel for its level. And, as tends to happen, I have a slight preference for the Redoma in the lineup."(92-94pts)12 bottles per lot $350-500

Full-bodied power is clearly on display, but the wine has a purity and balance that are sensational to behold. This classic Cabernet is a superstar of the vintage."(97pts)1 magnum per lot $500-700

Expansive, exotic bouquet of black raspberry, potpourri, bacon fat, smoky minerals and incense; smells like a high-class Côte-Rotie. Fat and velvety on entry, then more taut in the mid-palate, showing superb energy and focus to its deep, sweet flavors of red and dark berries and violet pastille. Completely stains the palate but gives no impression of excess weight. A floral note lingers on the long, sappy finish, which betrays only a hint of dusty tannins."(94pts VM)6 bottles per lot $450-600

Araujo has enjoyed an incredible string of top-notch vintages from 2001 through 2005 and again from 2008 through 2010. Extremely youthful at age ten, the 2002 is a candidate for perfection. Its dense blue/purple hue is followed by abundant aromas of cassis, incense, crushed rocks and spring flowers.

22329 Pride Mountain Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2007

(Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a slightly more brooding and formidably endowed effort displaying more extract, tannin and structure. In spite of its massive size, concentration and extract, it possesses gorgeously sweet tannins as well as a sense of equilibrium. This powerhouse will benefit from another 1-3 years of bottle age and should keep for 15 or more years."(95+pts)6 bottles per lot $750-1000

22401 Peter Michael Chardonnay - Vintage 1994cuvée Indigene(Wines Located in New York)"The 1994 Chardonnay cuvée Indigene is a mindblowing Chardonnay. It tastes like a hypothetical blend of Coche-Dury's Corton-Charlemagne, Louis Latour's Chevalier-Montrachet, and Michel Niellon's Batard-Montrachet. An amazingly concentrated and fabulously pure Chardonnay, with extract levels that must be tasted to be believed, this profound wine is extremely intense, well-balanced, with adequate acidity, and a lusty, spicy finish. The quality of fruit is so remarkable that the high percentage of aging in new

oak casks is largely obscured by the wine's fruit."(96pts)3 magnums per lot $420-550

22403 Peter Michael Chardonnay - Vintage 1996cuvée Indigene(Wines Located in New York)"The 1996 is a full-bodied, gorgeously proportioned, exotic Chardonnay that leans toward Burgundy in its aromatics, but clearly comes down on the California side with its ostentatious display of ripe fruit."(93pts)1 magnum per lot $160-220

The wine has off-the-charts massiveness and intensity but never comes across as heavy, overbearing or astringent. The freshness, laser-like precision, and full-bodied, massive richness and extract are simply remarkable to behold and experience.

22860 Volnay - Vintage 2011Taillepieds, Domaine de Montille(Wines Located in New York)"Good fresh red. Dark cherry and underbrush flavors are accented by peppery spices from the vinification with stems. Supple on entry, then concentrated, dry and uncompromising, with the stem component currently suppressing the wine's underlying fruit and minerality. Firmly built and energetic, but a bit dry following the Champans. Showing more energy than it did from barrel a year ago but the dusty tannins will require patience."(90+pts VM)6 bottles per lot $450-600

22874 Corton - Vintage 2009Les Perrières, Méo-Camuzet(Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 Corton-Les Perrières is a rich, intense wine bursting with dark fruit. Some of the gravitas seems to have been achieved with a slight loss of verve. There is a slightly overripe quality to the fruit that sets the Perrières apart from some of the other wines in the lineup."(91-93pts)1 bottle per lot $180-240

22902 Montrachet - Vintage 1996Marquis de Laguiche, J. Drouhinspc (Wines Located in New York)"...there is no mistaking the greatness of this wine: Classic white burg aromas of immense breadwith and depth with white flower notes, minerals and knockout complexity. This is a big, rich yet delineated wine that has near perfect balance. In short, this is flat out superb with an intensity, complexity, depth and stony minerality that is something special to behold. The length lasts for minutes and one this is still very young."(96pts BH)1 bottle per lot $650-850

22913 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 2010La Landonne, Delas Freres(Wines Located in New York)"Up with some of the greatest Côte Rôties out there is Delas's 2010 Côte Rôtie la Landonne. Revealing an inky purple color as well as an incredible perfume of spring flowers, violets, black raspberries, graphite and Asian spice, it has drop-dead gorgeous purity, full-bodied richness and a seamless, layered texture that fails to completely cover the wine's underlying tannic grip. Made from 100% Syrah and aged 16 months in new French oak, hide bottles in the cellar for another 4-5 years and enjoy them over the following three decades."(98pts)1 magnum per lot $300-400

Sexy, complex aromas of strawberry liqueur, raspberry, iris, truffle, chocolate, mocha and menthol. Suave on entry, then full, lush, sweet and seamless in the middle palate, with subtle floral lift contributing to the impression of definition. Strong in extract and quite fine-grained in spite of its thickness. Finishes impressively long, with very suave tannins."(93pts VM)1 12 liter per lot $1800-2400

Medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, its refined tannins are almost entirely concealed by the wine's ample core of fruit."(90-92pts)12 bottles per lot $1400-1800

The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and good density, but at the moment it just feels a little voiceless and needs more personality to develop during the remainder of its barrel maturation."(89-91pts VM)6 bottles per lot $550-750

23041 Château Doisy Daëne - Vintage 2006L'Extravagance, Sauternes(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 L'Extravagant Doisy Daëne has a rich, opulent and honeyed bouquet that seems to not so much seduce the olfactory senses, but get down to business straight away. The palate is rounded and sensual with pure honey, blood orange, popcorn and touches of nougat towards the tender finish. Beautifully balanced, unctuous and somehow effortless, this is a magnificent Doisy Daëne that certainly lives up to its name."(95pts)3 magnums per lot $500-700

Medium-bodied, vibrant and refreshing in the mouth, it has a good amount of chewy tannins and layers of lively red and black fruits, finishing on an earthy note."(90pts)6 bottles per lot $450-600

23057 Beaune Rouge - Vintage 2011Coucherias, P. Labet1x6 magnum ocb (Wines Located in Hong Kong)"A delicate if not invisible touch of oak serves as a reasonably neutral backdrop for the markedly ripe aromas of extract of cassis and violet scents.

Sigaut1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"This presents a brooding and somewhat taciturn nose that is beautifully fresh if not particularly elegant with its array of various dark berries, earth and a whisper of spice. The palate impression of the medium-bodied flavors is also quite rich and seductive as they possess an abundance of dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the lightly stony, firm and somewhat rustic finale. Once again this is not an elegant Chambolle villages but there is no doubting the quality of the underlying material."(88-91pts BH)12 bottles per lot $650-850

23098 Marguet Vintage Champagne - Vintage 2010SapienceDegorgee in 2020, 1x3 bottle owc (WinesLocated in New York)"This is the fifth vintage of Benoît Marguet's Sapience, Champagne's first organic prestige cuvée, which he began producing before he took over his family vineyards, using purchased grapes: Bouzy Pinot Noir from Benoît Lahaye, Cumières Pinot Meunier from Vincent Laval (more abundantly represented this year than in its 2009 counterpart) and Trépail Chardonnay from David Leclapart. Disgorged in September 2020 without dosage, the 2010 Brut Nature Premier Cru offers up inviting aromas of fresh pastry, golden orchard fruit, white flowers and walnuts, followed by a full-bodied, layered and concentrated palate that's vinous and intense, with elegant structure and a sapid finish. The 2010 vintage was a more challenging growing season than 2009, certainly, yet I'm inclined to rate this impressive wine on the same level as the 2009. 3,100 bottles were produced."(96pts)3 bottles per lot $420-550

23124 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2011Reserve, Le Clos du Caillou(Wines Located in Hong Kong)"The 2011 Châteauneuf du Pape Reserve Le Clos du Caillou is near the top of the heap in the vintage, and is a brilliant wine. Giving up classy creme de cassis, black raspberry, ground herbs and creamy licorice, it has full-bodied richness and depth to go with an open, sexy, supple style that’s hard to resist. The tannin here is present however, but is polished and sweet, so it will evolve gracefully going forward."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $350-500

23138 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1991La Mordoree, M. Chapoutier6scl, 1lwisl, 1ssos (Wines Located in New York)"La Mordor e is most akin to La Mouline in its seductive, otherworldly fragrance and layers of sweet, expansive, velvety-textured fruit Its huge bouquet and spectacularly rich, layered personality offer an astonishing example of what low yields from a naturally farmed vineyard and an unfined, unfiltered winemaking philosophy can achieve."(100pts)6 bottles per lot $1600-2200

23140 Ermitage - Vintage 1997Le Meal, M. Chapoutier3scl (Wines Located in New York)"The 1997 Hermitage Le Meal displays fat, plumpness, and richness, without losing the floral, minerality. It is a finesse-styled Hermitage, with concentrated black fruits, and a high-toned, structured, well-delineated personality. Because of low acidity and a plump, plush texture, this wine will be approachable at an early age. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2035. Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel.

23143 Hermitage - Vintage 1998Vin de Paille, M. Chapoutier1x3 half bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Nectar lovers will be amazed by the richness of this wine. The fully mature grapes spend two months on straw mats before being pressed. It exhibits a light gold color, with a texture resembling molasses. Despite being aged in 100% new oak, no wood is discernible. Its astonishing white truffle-scented nose includes notions of coffee, marmalade, and creme brulee. Extraordinarily dense and thick, with surprisingly good underlying acidity, this is a remarkable wine. Sadly, only 100 cases exist. It will last for 100 years, but it will be impossible to resist in its youth."(96-8pts)3 half-bottles per lot $220-300

23149 Serpico - Vintage 2001Feudi Di San Gregorio(Wines Located in New York)"The 2001 Serpico, impenetrable and inky, staggeringly rich in both aroma and flavor, offers ultra-ripe but perfectly fresh berry fruit, cloves, cinnamon, and chocolate, and mouth-coating, deep-pile tactile sensations which combine iron power and a enveloping, voluptuous texture, infinitely deep and long.

23162 Arietta Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2004(Wines Located in New York)"Full ruby-red. High-toned but quite closed on the nose. Then chewy, dense and sweet in the mouth, with highly concentrated, sappy black raspberry flavor and compelling vibrancy. Offers a rare combination of silky texture, outstanding breadth and bright acidity. As ripe as this is, there's no hint of raisins.

23173 Arietta Red - Vintage 2009Variation One(Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 Variation One (Syrah/Merlot) is soft and caressing from start to finish. The fruit is a bit understated in this delicate, feminine wine. Crushed flowers, red fruit and tobacco are layered nicely into the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019."(93pts)12 bottles per lot $420-550

23174 Arietta Red - Vintage 2010Variation One(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Red Wine Variation One is just beginning to show the first signs of early tertiary nuance and aromatic complexity. Pomegranate, sweet red plum and spice give the 2010 its decidedly exotic personality, an impression that is reinforced by the rich, super-ripe fruit profile. Bold and juicy, but with plenty of supporting tannin, the 2010 is a wonderfully complete wine."(94pts VM)11 bottles per lot $420-550

23180 Dehlinger Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1997(Wines Located in New York)"The remarkable 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon appears to be the finest Tom Dehlinger has yet produced.

Immense, but so velvety-textured it tastes seamless, this full-bodied classic offering inundates the palate with fruit. Wow! What a sensational Cabernet Sauvignon! Tom Dehlinger told me that approximately 70% of his Cabernet Sauvignon crop is sold to other wineries, but he keeps the finest lots from his ridge top vineyards for his Cabernet Sauvignon, which is produced in 400-650 case lots.

On the palate, the wine is enormous, with an unctuosity, thickness, and purity that must be tasted to be believed it has very high levels of tannin, but the tannin is barely noticeable given the wine s exaggerated wealth of richness and power.

The bouquet is very intense but very tight at first, demanding time to unfurl in the glass at its own pleasure: white peach, apricot, orange-blossom and a touch of marmalade with breathtaking definition. The palate is full-bodied with a viscous entry, so pure and

caressing with mellifluous honey, apricot and citrus lemon, wonderful delineation on the finish, the thread of acidity interwoven through that powerful finish with the length of an ocean liner. Brilliant."(98pts)12 half-bottles per lot $900-1200

23340 Condrieu - Vintage 2006Jeanne-Elise, P. Gaillard1x12 half-bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"Yellow-gold. Incredibly complex aromas evoke apricot nectar, floral honey, anise and intense minerality. Oily in texture, with weighty pit fruit and melon flavors accompanied by succulent herbs and baking spices. Improbably fresh and incisive on the long, gripping finish. One wild wine; I could taste this almost a half-hour later. These grapes were not botrytized and were harvested at the same time as the regular Condrieu. "The cleanest possible grapes were selected for this cuvée," Gaillard told me. The wine's substantial sweetness is buffered by acidity."(94pts VM)12 half-bottles per lot $450-600

It possesses outstanding balance, although not quite the stuffing of the finest vintages, which makes the wine's structural components stand out more than they ideally might.

The Au Paradis offers lots of black currant, cedar wood, unsmoked cigar tobacco and vanillin notes in a dense, full-bodied, impressive style, especially for a 2011. Sweet tannins auger well for drinking this cuvée now and over the next 15+ years."(92pts)1 magnum per lot $220-300

23407 Peter Michael Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2012Au Paradis(Wines Located in New York)"Peter Michael's newest offering comes from the Showket Vineyard in Oakville, which sits high on the hillsides of the Vaca Mountains in eastern Napa Valley. The vineyard is next to Dalla Valle, so this is a high-rent Cabernet district. The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Au Paradis is composed of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Cabernet Franc (1,785 cases produced). It exhibits lots of grilled meat, spice box, cedarwood, Crème de cassis and vanilla characteristics, a full-bodied earthiness, stunning purity, and refined, silky tannins.

23408 Peter Michael Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2013Au Paradis(Wines Located in New York)"The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Au Paradis comes from one of their newer acquisitions, formerly known as the Showket Vineyard in the red soil hillsides overlooking the Oakville crossroads. This is a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Cabernet Franc. Production is less than 1,530 cases. The 2013 displays loads of roasted meats, licorice, graphite, dusty, loamy soil notes, creamy blackcurrants and blackberries, stunning richness, and a Pauilllac-like first-growth cedarwood and Crème de cassis notes. The Cabernet Franc from this area grows right next to the famous Maya wine of Dalle Valle. This wine spent all of its time in 100% new Daranjou cooperage, which is not even noticeable in the aromatics or flavors. This full-bodied, modern-day classic should age brilliantly for 30-35 years."(98pts)1 magnum per lot $400-600

23419 Capture Wines Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2009Revelation(Wines Located in New York)"Red-ruby. Currant, graphite, minerals, leather and tobacco leaf on the nuanced nose. Nicely ripe and intense, with a supple texture and a subtle sweetness to the redcurrant, tobacco, espresso and licorice flavors. I like the combination of depth and juiciness here. Finishes with serious ripe tannins and lovely chocolatey persistence.

It benefits significantly from 30-60 minutes of airing. In fact, my score rose with each ten minute interval, a very positive sign. This 2003 Pinot should drink well for 5-7 years. This wine was bottled about six weeks before I tasted it, which is usually a difficult period for many wines, even those bottled naturally. In any event, this up-and-coming Santa Barbara County producer demonstrates considerable potential."(92pts)1 bottle per lot $60-80

The palate is much more controlled, with very fine tannins, supremely well-judged acidity and a very elegant, composed finish that has more purity and poise than the Fonseca.

Having tasted this nectar two or three times in recent months, I can vouch for its extraordinary intensity on the nose: candied orange peel, citrus lemon,

cold wet limestone and honeysuckle notes that shimmer in the glass. It almost has a Chablis-like penetration imagine if Raveneau made white Bordeaux. The palate is perfectly balanced and after 30 years, it as fresh as a daisy, citrus fresh, with a killer line of mineralité, squeezed lime and an almost slate-like note (try licking some to see what I mean no one will look). The tension, the depth and length of this Haut Brion Blanc are as good as you will find...if you can find it nowadays. Simply breathtaking, anyone with bottles in their cellar will be handsomely rewarded for their patience. Tasted August 2015."(98pts)6 bottles per lot $5000-7000

23567 Clos St. Denis - Vintage 2011Dujacvlscl (Wines Located in New York)"Here too an adroit application of wood serves as a discreet foil for the more obvious floral aromas that enjoy added scope from the presence of pure, spicy and highly complex red and dark berry scents. There is an abundance of mouth coating extract that imparts a suave, even lush character to the very rich medium-bodied flavors that are an exercise in finesse and refinement while offering controlled power and outstanding length."(93pts BH)1 magnum per lot $1200-1600

In the mouth, this dark ruby/purple-colored, opulent wine exhibits a rich, medium to full-bodied, chewy texture, decent acidity, and well-integrated flavors of smoky new oak.

There is no amber to be found in the wine's deep ruby/purple color. The nose offers tobacco, smoke, tar, and gobs of sweet black cherry fruit aromas. Full-bodied, with a layered, nuanced character, high glycerin (hence the sweetness in the flavors), and a lush, round, generously-endowed finish, this is a substantial as well as elegant, savory style of Unico Reserva that can be drunk now and over the next 15+ years."(93pts)6 bottles per lot $2000-2800

The color is opaque purple, and the nose offers up aromas of black currants, lead pencil, minerals, walnuts, and Crème de cassis. Structured, dense, and full-bodied, with an exotic, flamboyant personality, this superb, concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon is ostentatious at present, but will undoubtedly shut down after several years in the bottle, unfolding slowly over the next two decades."(96-97pts)7 bottles per lot $260-350

The wine exhibits a dense purple color, and an incredibly fragrant nose of jammy black fruits, spice, smoke, and loamy, truffle-like

scents. In the mouth, it is full-bodied, with thrilling levels of extract and richness, but no sense of heaviness or harshness. This seamless Dominus possesses no hard edges, as its acidity, tannin, and alcohol are beautifully meshed with copious quantities of ripe fruit."(99pts)12 bottles per lot $3500-5000

23588 The Colonial Estate Shiraz - Vintage 2002Exile2x6 magnum owc's (Wines Located in New York)"Produced from a dry-farmed, single vineyard of old vine Shiraz (some of which are 120 years old), the stunning, inky/purple-tinged 2002 Shiraz Exile was aged in 100% new French oak. A sweet nose of black fruits, flowers, melted licorice, and espresso roast precedes a wine of amazing concentration, compelling intensity, and a tremendous finish of more than 60 seconds. Although expensive, readers must take into consideration the age of the vines as well as the limited production. This exquisite Shiraz is approachable, but promises to hit its peak in 3-5 years, and last for two decades.

to finish. Sensual and super-expressive, with soft contours, silky tannins and exceptional finesse, Pichon Baron is one of the more accessible wines in its peer group today. Plum, mocha, leather, spice and chocolate all build effortlessly. As outstanding as Pichon Baron is, the 2016 gives the impression it is playing things safe. It would be nice to see a little more daring and risk."(96pts VM)6 bottles per lot $750-1000

23592 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Château Rayas(Wines Located in New York)"...is a relatively dark ruby/purple-tinged wine, more intensely colored than most Rayas Châteauneufs tend to be, since they are made from 100% Grenache and color has never been one of their hallmarks. The extraordinarily youthful and still burgeoning aromatics of black raspberries, black cherries, truffles and licorice lead to a full-bodied, powerful Rayas with sweet tannin, adequate acidity, and an ethereal richness and unctuosity that delicately offers a sensual texture."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $800-1100

23594 Bonnes Mares - Vintage 2015Comte de Vogue(Wines Located in New York)"An extract of black cherry nose is interwoven with notes of earth, violet, spice and plum liqueur scents. The very dense and serious yet vibrant and relatively refined big-bodied flavors brim with dry extract that serves to mostly buffer the powerful and very firm tannic spine on the once again naturally sweet, sappy and massively long finish."(95pts BH)1 bottle per lot $500-700

23595 Musigny - Vintage 2003Vieilles Vignes, Comte de Vogue1vlscl, 1nl (Wines Located in New York)"Unquestionably one of the glories of the vintage, the 2003 Musigny Vieilles Vignes brings forth a highly boisterous nose of spices, violets, roses, plums, blueberries, and black cherries. Deep, powerful, graceful, concentrated, and sensually textured, it slathers the mouth with plums, blueberries, and cherries. Notes of mocha are intermingled with licorice in its exquisitely long finish. This noble wine is crammed with tannin, yet it is sweet and ripe..."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $1100-1500

23596 Musigny - Vintage 2006Vieilles Vignes, Comte de Voguenl (Wines Located in New York)"This is also extremely floral with a reserved nose that

is an airy, spicy and ripe mélange of red and blue pinot fruit that displays really lovely violet and rose petal notes that are picked up by the minerally, intense and harmonious flavors that are beautifully proportioned and are blessed with ample amounts of dry extract on the essence of pinot and explosive, energetic and hugely long yet incredible precise finish that is also built on a base of firm minerality. This is almost exotic in character yet everything is in beautiful concordance. In a word, great."(96pts BH)1 bottle per lot $500-700

Gouges1x1 Jeroboam owc (Wines Located in New York)"The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Porrets-Saint Georges 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet of black cherries, bilberry jam, a touch of blue fruit and just a hint of licorice. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit. There is an initial burst and then everything clamps back down so that the second half is structured and grippy."(90-92pts VM)1 Jeroboam per lot $260-350


23599 Nuits St. Georges - Vintage 2018Les Vaucrains, H. Gouges1x1 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"The wine delivers a superb aromatic constellation of dark berries, black cherries, venison, espresso, a great base of minerality, woodsmoke and a lovely topnote of cola. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and rock solid at the core, with ripe, firm, but surprisingly suave tannins, excellent nascent complexity and a very, very long, youthful and promising finish."(94pts JG)1 magnum per lot $220-300

Nicely concentrated flavors of pineapple, stone fruits, clove and saline minerality juxtapose a subtle savory character with a sexy touch of sweetness. A step up in texture and length from Michelot's Meursault Charmes, which was quite silky, ripe and high-toned at the time of my visit but had barely started its malolactic fermentation. A tad phenolic on the back end."(91-93pts VM)3 magnums per lot $380-450

An intensely perfumed, complex bouquet evokes candied black and blue fruits, incense, exotic spices, smoky minerals and pungent flowers. Silky, broad and gently sweet, offering palate-staining cherry, boysenberry, spicecake and violet pastille flavors that show superb depth.

23616 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 2016La Belle Helene, Ogier1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Glass-staining ruby. Powerful, spice-accented aromas of fresh black and blue fruits, candied violet, licorice and olive paste, along with a hint of exotic spices that builds steadily in the glass. Sweet, palate-staining cassis, boysenberry, floral pastille and star anise flavors turn livelier with air. Impressively concentrated but surprisingly lively thanks to its spine of smoky minerality.

23634 Arbois Pupillin - Vintage 2008Vin Jaune, Domaine de la Borde2x6 620ml bottle ocb's (Wines Located inNew York)"2008 was a cold vintage, in a style similar to 2016, and the 2008 Vin Jaune d'Arbois shows a restrained and austere character; it's serious, precise and fine, with good complexity despite its youth, with more subtle pungency and more elegance. Julien Mareschal thinks you have to wait at least one year after you bottle a Vin Jaune to be able to taste it. This is definitely a more elegant style."(94pts)12 620mls per lot $750-1000

23639 Alion - Vintage 20171x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"It's a classical Ali n, with some developed aromas, juicy and round but not heavy, with just a tad of earthy rusticity. With time, it develops more balsamic notes and hints of licorice."(94pts)6 bottles per lot $300-400




23643 Vega Sicilia Unico - Vintage 20112x3 bottle owc's (Wines Located in New York)"The wine has a developed nose with some notes of ripe black fruit, meat and underbrush, somewhat herbal and perfumed. There is something about the nose of the nicos that I cannot quite describe but is quite distinct, and it's in this vintage and also in the Reserva Especial."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $1600-2200


23644 Niepoort Vintage Port - Vintage 20001x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Ruby-purple, a bit more saturated than the Secundum. Brooding aromas of crushed black fruits, licorice and spices. Very ripe, thick and dense, with compelling sweetness of fruit. Bright, integrated acids give this very lush, fleshy, palate-coating wine excellent tensile strength. Finishes impressively long and bright, with finely grained, mouthdusting tannins. This has a terrific kernel of fruit and a three-dimensional palate feel."(93pts VM)6 bottles per lot $260-350

23651 Volnay - Vintage 2013Taillepieds, Domaine Dublere1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"Despite there being no new wood used in 2013 this displays a touch of oak anyway though it's sufficiently subtle that it doesn't impair the appreciation of the very fresh, spicy and cool aromas of violet, plum and dark currant. This is even more intense than the Pitures with its even more mineral-driven medium weight flavors that also display enough asperity to notice but the phenolic maturity is higher here even if the balance is still not ideal."(87-90pts BH)12 bottles per lot $500-700

Chapoutier1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"Loaded with notions of strawberries, kirsch, underbrush and garrigue, it has medium to full-bodied richness with a supple, fleshy and hedonistically styled feel on the palate. As with the La Bernardine, I don't see this making old bones, yet it should provide ample pleasure for upward of a decade."(92pts)6 bottles per lot $240-320

23660 Ermitage Blanc - Vintage 2007Le Meal, M. Chapoutier1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"I was shocked by the 2007 Ermitage le Meal Blanc and from a vintage that yielded mostly forward, supple and approachable efforts, it has stunning concentration, density, depth and texture. Still light/medium gold in color, it offers classic crushed-rock-like minerality, licorice, charcoal and sautéed peach characteristics to go with a lively, fresh, yet full-bore and decadent profile on the palate. It has the concentration and purity to evolve for decades, but is mind-blowing stuff today."(99pts)5 bottles per lot $400-600

23661 Hermitage - Vintage 1985La Chapelle, P. Jaboulet5cm, lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"One of the more finesse driven wines in the vertical, the 1985 Hermitage la Chapelle offered beautiful, complex notes of coffee beans, dried meats, potpourri and mint to go with a full-bodied, elegant and seamless feel on the palate. Following on the heels of the monster-sized '89, it still stood out for its purity, fine tannin and length on the finish. It's a beautiful wine drinking at point."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

23662 Hermitage - Vintage 2007Les Miaux, Ferraton1x3 magnum ocb (Wines Located in NewYork)"Bright ruby-red. Complex scents of raspberry, cherry-cola, potpourri, tobacco and woodsmoke.

Already incredibly expressive, soft, sexy, and voluptuous, jammy fruits infused with toasty oak cascade over the palate. This easily understood, seamless, pure, classic 1998 should drink well for 20-25 years."(96pts)6 bottles per lot $1200-1600

Full-bodied, dense, and powerfully tannic, yet extremely harmonious..."(94-6pts)3 magnums per lot $1200-1600

23677 Barolo - Vintage 1998Le Rocche del Falletto di Serralunga, B. Giacosa1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"This massive, full-bodied wine is spectacular.

Darker, ferrous notes add complexity over time. The 2008 boasts striking inner perfume, tons of sweetness and considerable mid-palate pliancy, with a touch more depth, resonance and dimensions of flavor than the straight Barolo La Pira."(95pts VM)6 bottles per lot $700-900

23681 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2010Riserva, Renieri1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"... is endowed with striking depth.

23682 Darmagi - Vintage 1998Gaja1x3 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"Saturated medium ruby. Very cabernet aromas of cassis, licorice, smoked meat and game, with hints of truffle, pepper, shoe polish and mint. Rich, sweet and pliant, with lovely seamless texture and early appeal. Very expressive for this wine, and easier to taste today than the young '99. Finishes very long and suave, with sweet tannins."(91pts VM)3 magnums per lot $500-700

23683 Galatrona - Vintage 2013Petrolo1x1 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"Petrolo's flagship Galatrona is a good wine, but it comes across as a bit lean and lacking in depth in 2013. The fruit never has a chance to fully emerge in a wine that remains both compact and abrupt."(91pts VM)1 magnum per lot $160-220

23684 Rosso di Toscana - Vintage 2008Tenuta di Trinoronl, 1x1 imperial owc (Wines Located in New York)1 Imperial per lot $900-1200

23685 Saffredi - Vintage 2008Le Pupille

(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Saffredi, on the other hand, is a bit mystifying. It comes across as quite understated and lacking the necessary mid-palate juiciness to balance the 75% new oak barrels. Dark red fruit, spices and flowers emerge over time, but the wine's customary explosive, exuberant personality are nowhere to be found. Ultimately, the 2008 comes across as well-made but lacking excitement. The 2008 Saffredi is 49% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Syrah."(91pts VM)1 Balthazar per lot $1000-1400

23686 Sassicaia - Vintage 1998Tenuta San Guido1x3 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"Lovely, subtle yet complex aromas of currants, sage and green olives lead to a full-bodied red with a solid core of fruit and well-integrated tannins. Still very reserved on the finish, but those who are patient should be rewarded. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc."(95pts WS)3 magnums per lot $1800-2400

23687 Numanthia - Vintage 20001x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"...(100% Tinta de Toro from 70-100-year old vines) was produced from meager yields of one ton of fruit per acre. It spent 19 months in new French oak, with malolactic in barrel, and neither fining nor filtration. This is a massive, dense ruby/purple-colored effort that needs 3-4 years to strut its stuff. Thick, juicy, and concentrated, it displays notes of creme de cassis, melted licorice, spice box, and earth."(93pts)6 bottles per lot $260-350

23690 Araujo Estate Red - Vintage 2010Altagracia(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Altagracia is surprisingly huge in this vintage. Layers of exotic black fruit, spices, mocha and espresso burst onto the palate with striking depth, power and richness. There is an immediacy to the 2010 that is simply compelling. No longer a true second wine, Altagracia now also includes a small amount of purchased fruit and is being crafted to stand on its own. The 2010 achieves that, and so much more. It is a

fabulous effort from the team at Araujo. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025+."(96pts)4 magnums per lot $600-800

23691 Cardinale Red - Vintage 2001(Wines Located in New York)"...boasts a dense purple color along with a big, rich perfume of kirsch, creme de cassis, subtle toasty oak and incense.

23692 Diamond Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1998Gravelly Meadow(Wines Located in New York)"Dark red. Aromas of strawberry eau de vie, redcurrant, tobacco and eucalyptus. Juicy, bright, slightly tart-edged red berry flavors. Still a bit closed in on itself and dominated by its structure. But this is more intensely flavored than the '98 Red Rock, and finishes with finer tannins."(87+ pts)4 bottles per lot $400-600

23693 Diamond Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1998Red Rock Terrace(Wines Located in New York)"Dark red. Expressive, somewhat leafy aromas of redcurrant, strawberry and mocha, with a distinct note of vegetility. Rather pliant and fairly intense in the mouth, but with its fruit flavors compromised by a noticeable eucalyptus element. Finishes with slightly dry, building tannins."(85+ pts)4 bottles per lot $400-600

23694 Diamond Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1998Volcanic Hill(Wines Located in New York)"Dark red. Primary, rather raw aromas of cassis and dark chocolate. Quite tough on the palate, with brooding, slightly drying flavors of dark berries, mint and minerals. Has density of material but is extremely backward and unforthcoming. Finishes with very firm tannins and rather strong acidity."(86+ pts)4 bottles per lot $400-600

23696 Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 20146x1 magnum owc's (Wines Located in New York)"...reflects the vintage's precociousness and front-end loaded, flattering style. It is medium to full-bodied, shows beautiful fruit purity, deep black raspberry and blackcurrant fruit, moving toward blacker berries. There is a floral characteristic, spice, and a full-bodied, lush mouthfeel with silky tannin."(94pts)6 magnums per lot $2800-3800

23698 Jonata Red - Vintage 2014El Alma de Jonata(Wines Located in New York)" The 2014 El Alma de Jonata is a powerful, dense wine that seems to reflect the intensity of the drought vintage. Chocolate, espresso and dark cherry make a strong first impression. Floral notes appear later, adding an attractive element of lift. Even so, this is an especially somber vintage for the Alma, Jonata's Cabernet Franc-based blend."(92pts VM)3 bottles per lot $200-280


23700 Jonata Red - Vintage 2015El Alma de Jonata(Wines Located in New York)"The 2015 El Alma de Jonata is going to need at least a few years to come into its own, as the tannins are quite prominent. The 2015, with its strong Cabernet Franc imprint, is concentrated, layered and full of promise. I expected the Alma to be a bit more expressive given the natural richness of the year, but its reticence is likely a good thing for the future, especially as the Franc character starts to open up with cellaring."(94+ pts VM)3 bottles per lot $180-240

23701 Jonata Red - Vintage 2015El Desafio de Jonata(Wines Located in New York)"The 2015 El Desafio de Jonata, the estate's Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend, is dense, powerful and super-expressive, with tremendous textural richness and thrust. Still very, very young, the 2015 is going to need at least several years to come into its own. Even so, it is incredibly impressive in the early going."(96pts VM)1 bottle per lot $50-70

23702 Jonata Red - Vintage 2015La Sangre de Jonata(Wines Located in New York)"The flagship 2015 La Sangre de Jonata (Syrah) is endowed with tremendous aromatic intensity and explosive energy. A rush of red cherry, pomegranate and blood orange builds as the 2015 fills out its layers of texture in the glass. Bright floral notes appear to give the wine lift, energy and soaring intensity. The interplay of richness and freshness makes for a striking, captivating version of La Sangre."(96pts VM)4 bottles per lot $220-300

23703 Peter Michael Red - Vintage 2015Les Pavots

(Wines Located in New York)'Blended of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, 15% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot, the 2015 Les Pavots Proprietary Red Wine is scented of Crème de cassis, blueberries and baking spices with hints of chocolate box, black earth and cigar box. Medium to full-bodied, the palate simply sings with black fruit preserves and spicy layers, supported by chewy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long."(95pts)3 magnums per lot $800-1100

23704 Philip Togni Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 19981x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"As I have noted in the past, Togni holds back 100 cases of each vintage to be released at age ten. Although 1998 was a challenging vintage in California, this 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate has evolved into a beautiful wine. If you want to throw a California Cabernet into a blind tasting of first and second-growth Bordeaux, this is the wine to choose. A dead-ringer for a top-class Pauillac, it offers leafy, cedary, licorice, red and black currant, and roasted herb aromas. In the mouth, the Bordeaux-like austerity continues with noticeable tannin as well as a slightly dry finish. Nevertheless, this wine is showing well, although I would not hold it longer than 5-6 years, atypical for a Togni."(90pts)12 bottles per lot $800-1100

23705 Philip Togni Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2012(Wines Located in New York)"The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate's dense ruby/purple color is followed by notes of Crème de cassis, licorice, mulberries and spring flowers. Medium to full-bodied and elegant, it cuts a broad swath between a great Médoc and a Napa Valley Cabernet. There is still some tannin to shed, should be at its peak in 4-5 years, and drink well for 20-25 years."(94+pts)6 magnums per lot $1000-1400

23706 Araujo Estate Syrah - Vintage 2009Eisele Vineyard1x3 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"The 2009 Syrah Eisele Vineyard stands out for its textural elegance and finesse. Dark berries, flowers and mint are some of the many nuances that come together in this silky, totally captivating wine. The 2009 has never been the most varietally expressive Syrah from the Eisele Vineyard, but it is exceptionally polished, sexy and pure. Sweet floral notes add lift and a measure of brightness on the finish."(96pts)3 bottles per lot $220-300



23708 Araujo Estate Syrah - Vintage 2010Eisele Vineyard

(Wines Located in New York)"Another standout, the 2010 Syrah Eisele Vineyard is drop-dead gorgeous. A bevy of black olives and plums burst from the glass in an explosive wine loaded with varietal nuance and sheer power. The cooler vintage brought out the best. This is a marvelous, totally compelling wine endowed with massive concentration and depth. The addition of 3% Viognier and a small amount of stems add complexity. Black fruit, tobacco, savory herbs, licorice and menthol are layered into the brooding finish."(96pts)1 magnum per lot $200-280

23713 Kistler Pinot Noir - Vintage 2001Kistler Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Medium red-ruby. Pretty, nuanced nose combines raspberry, red cherry, flowers, earth and mint. At once dense and juicy, with lively raspberry and floral flavors complemented but not dominated by spicy oak. This should develop more complexity with bottle aging, but it's already captivating today thanks to its sappy freshness. Finishes very long and firmly tannic, with lingering raspberry and black cherry flavors. There are 1,500 cases of this wine, making it by far Kistler's largest cuvée of pinot noir."(92+pts IWC)8 bottles per lot $550-750

A host of dark, meaty aromas and flavors hit the palate in a dense, concentrated Syrah endowed with tons of depth and pure power. In 2010, the Bien Nacido is a wine of real gravitas and intensity."(94pts VM)6 bottles per lot $180-240

23719 Turley Petite Sirah - Vintage 2000Hayne Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard is off the charts in terms of extract and richness. Its impenetrable black/blue/purple color is followed by scents of incense, cassis, minerals, blackberry liqueur, and graphite. This monstrously full, rich, and textured wine needs 10-12 years of cellaring, and will keep for 35-40 years."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $70-90

23721 Turley Petite Sirah - Vintage 2008Estate(Wines Located in New York)"Bright medium ruby. Captivating nose melds cherry pit, black raspberry, black tea and Christmas spices. Sweet and silky but impeccably focused, with a lovely floral scent lifting the slightly exotic dark berry flavors. This boasts terrific fruit and finishes with ripe tannins and terrific persistence."(93pts VM)3 bottles per lot $75-100

23722 Turley Petite Sirah - Vintage 2013Hayne Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Not yet bottled, the 2013 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard could possibly rival the near-perfection of the 2013 Pesenti Petite Syrah. Blueberry, blackberry, acacia flowers and almost gravelly alluvial notes jump from the glass of this full-bodied, massive, concentrated wine. The tannins are very high, but they are sweet and well-integrated. This should turn out to be a prodigious Petite Syrah to begin drinking in about 10-15 years and cellar for children and grandchildren over the following 30-50 or more years. Petite Syrah, if you haven't guessed by now, is the quintessential anti-oxidant

among red wines and has almost immortal aging potential."(96+pts)4 bottles per lot $150-200

23723 Turley Petite Sirah - Vintage 2015Hayne Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"The 2015 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard possesses a gorgeous structural spine to balance the intense, inky fruit.

23731 Kistler Chardonnay - Vintage 2005Hudson Vineyard

(Wines Located in New York)"The 2005 Chardonnay Hudson Vineyard displays a green tinge to its light gold/straw color. On the nose, it exhibits more developed, evolved scents of orange blossoms, buttery apples, tropical fruits, and hints of hazelnuts and honeysuckle. With terrific ripeness as well as acidity, this plump, fleshy Chardonnay is on a faster evolutionary track than some of the other cuvées."(92-94pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

It conceals plenty of structure and will effortlessly evolve for 6-8 years, drinking well through 2028, if not longer"(98pts)1 double magnum per lot $300-400

23738 Almaviva - Vintage 20101x1 double magnum owc (Wines Locatedin New York)"The 2010 Almaviva is a Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend complemented with Carmenere, Cabernet Franc,

and for the first time in 2010, a small quantity of Petit Verdot. 2010 was a cool vintage, giving the wine an herbaceous character with good freshness and balance. It is still young with some lactic notes and some aromas derived from the elevage (roasted coffee and dark chocolate), with terse black fruit and some beef blood overtones. This vintage seems to be a worthy follower of the 2005, with sweet round tannins, intense flavors, very good balance and the stuffing to live a long life in bottle. Drink 2015-2025."(92pts)1 double magnum per lot $300-400

23739 Catena Zapata Malbec - Vintage 2008Argentino1x1 imperial owc (Wines Located in NewYork)"The 2008 Argentino Malbec is a blend of 65% Adrianna and 35% Nicasia fruit. It, too, spent 24 months in 100% new French oak. The Argentino offers a similar aromatic and flavor profile but with just a bit of extra nuance, presumably because of the blending. Dense, rich, and voluptuous, this lengthy effort should easily achieve its 20th birthday in peak form. It will be most enjoyable to taste these three wines side-by-side in another 10-15 years."(97pts)1 Imperial per lot $450-600

23740 Gevrey Chambertin - Vintage 2010Combe Aux Moines, Vieilles Vignes, Fourrierwrl (Wines Located in New York)"A slightly riper though still extremely fresh nose features notes of plum and dark berry fruit liqueur aromas that complement the equally ripe and velvety full-bodied flavors that brim with both minerality and plenty of dry extract that coats the mouth. Despite the seductive texture the overall impression is that this understated effort is both very serious and notably austere, indeed this is a classic Combe aux Moines that is built to age. In a word, superb."(91-94pts BH)1 bottle per lot $200-280

23741 Gevrey Chambertin - Vintage 2012Vieilles Vignes, Fourrier3vlscl (Wines Located in New York)"An agreeably perfumed nose of various red berries, plum and soft spice nuances leads to delicious, intense and quite pure medium-bodied flavors that are shaped by relatively refined tannins on the balanced and persistent finish.

Les Petits Vougeots, Fourrier1tl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Vougeot Les Petits Vougeots floats on the palate with a weightless, totally graceful expression of Pinot Noir. Sweet red berries, crushed flowers and mint are some of the notes that waft from the glass in this seductive, alluring wine. The Petits Vougeots retains gorgeous inner perfume and fragrance through to the finish. Stylistically it is closer to Chambolle than Vougeot. There is more than enough density and structure for this to drink well for a number of years, but it is also immensely appealing right now. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2030."(90-92pts)2 bottles per lot $180-240

23748 Pommard - Vintage 1988Grands Epenots, M. Gaunoux(Wines Located in New York)"Mild bricking. The nose is now almost completely secondary, indeed there is a hint of sous bois present along with plenty of earth influence. The rich, full-bodied and equally earthy flavors are still quite powerful and concentrated and while there is some of the typical '88 austerity present on the finish, there is also excellent complexity and real finishing verve."(92pts BH)4 bottles per lot $400-600

23749 Pommard - Vintage 1999Grands Epenots, M. Gaunoux(Wines Located in New York)"A perfumed, complex and mostly still primary nose offers up earthy red berry fruit, underbrush and a touch of animale that can also be found on the generous and quite fleshy flavors that possess excellent volume as well as buckets of dry extract that almost render the firm and ripe tannins invisible on the massively long finish. Wow, this is a stunner of a wine with still plenty of upside

23756 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Château de Beaucastel1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"...has turned out even better out of bottle than I predicted.

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)1 Jeroboam per lot $450-600

Made from 90-year old vines and microscopic yields of 10-12 hectoliters per hectare, this wine flirts with perfection. It is a compelling white Hermitage.

Its inky black/purple color is accompanied by extraordinarily pure, graphite-infused, blackberry, plum, mineral, licorice, and espresso flavors. Despite its monumental intensity and richness, this wine is not heavy, somehow managing to conceal its 17.5% alcohol!

Dark red fruits, smoke and grilled herbs are just some of the nuances that come to life as this imposing, focused Barolo opens up in the glass. Today, the wine is a touch austere, but in a few years the structure should fill out

Tightly wound, with dense, full-bodied notes of black fruits, charcoal, smoke, earth, and pain grille, it is big and rich, but tight, structured, and backward. Give it 3-5 years of cellaring, and drink it over the following 12-15. I do not believe it will ever achieve the aromatic complexity exhibited by the 2000."(92pts)4 bottles per lot $160-220

(Wines Located in New York)"It is another profound Cabernet from the exceptional 1994 vintage. The wine's opaque purple color and huge, massive richness do not come across as heavy, despite the wine's extraordinary intensity and thickness. There is enough acidity for freshness, and plenty of sweet, well-integrated tannin. This large-scaled, magnificently-endowed Cabernet Sauvignon needs 5-6 years of cellaring, but it should keep for 25+ years."(95pts)2 bottles per lot $260-350

Full-bodied with magnificent density, overall equilibrium, stunning purity, sweet but abundant tannin and a fabulous finish, this profound wine remains a baby at age ten.

23832 Pride Mountain Merlot - Vintage 2000(Wines Located in New York)"The 2000 Merlot (5,000 cases) is a blend of fruit from Napa (61%) and Sonoma (39%). The dividing line for those two counties transects the Pride Mountain vineyard, hence the confusion about the wines' appellations. This wine offers plenty of sweet black fruits, and an elegant, medium-bodied personality without the grip, depth, and concentration of the 1999 and 1998. To be fair, it had just been bottled when I tasted it.

23867 Turley Zinfandel - Vintage 2014Old Vines(Wines Located in New York)"Another relatively big cuvée for Turley is their 2014 Zinfandel Old Vines (15.5% alcohol) that comes from bits and pieces of parcels that are impressive terroirs, but individually too small to bottle separately. Hence, they are blended together, yet represent vineyards between 41 and 130 years old! This juicy wine offers loads of raspberry and briary fruit, a full-bodied mouthfeel, good purity, zesty acidity and ripe tannin. Layered and rich, it is a satisfying, lusty Zinfandel to drink over the next 4-5 years."(91pts)1 bottle per lot $20-30

23876 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2003(Wines Located in New York)"Quilceda Creek s Cabernet Sauvignon is the winery's raison d'etre and is produced in significant quantities (3,400 cases in 2002, 3,425 in 2003). For accomplishing this feat the Golitzens should be doubly proud. Darker colored and significantly more powerful than the 2002, the 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon displays mouth-watering aromatics of black chocolate, sage, and blackberry liqueur. Its awe-inspiring core of cassis liqueur, violets, blueberry nectar, black cherry syrup, and chocolate is immensely muscular yet elegant.

This leads to a lustrous, layered, velvet-textured wine with gobs of spicy, ripe black fruits and beautifully integrated oak, tannin, and acidity.

23879 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2005(Wines Located in New York)"Opaque purple-colored, it has a splendid perfume of violets, wood smoke, truffle, Asian spices, black cherry, and black currant preserves. Opulent and mouth-coating, the layers of complex flavors nearly hide enough tannin to support 8-10 years of additional cellaring. The oak, tannin, and acidity are beautifully integrated and the lengthy finish lasts for well over a minute. Purchasers no doubt will want to try a bottle immediately but this towering effort will not reach its peak until 2015 at the earliest and provide pleasure through 2040."(100pts)6 magnums per lot $1800-2400

23880 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2014(Wines Located in New York)"The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is another tour de force from this estate that's reminiscent of first growth Bordeaux from a vintage like 2009. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and aged in new barrels, it offers incredible notes of blackcurrants, graphite, lead pencil shavings and crushed rocks in a full-bodied, decadent, insanely layered and seamless style. This beauty possesses ultra-fine tannin, no hard edges and a forward, already hard to resist style, yet it's going to keep for more than two decades."(100pts)6 bottles per lot $700-900

23934 Williams Selyem Pinot Noir - Vintage 2013

Terra de Promissio(Wines Located in New York)"A virile, imposing wine, the 2013 Pinot Noir Terra de Promissio Vineyard is quite backward today, but the wine's energy and overall intensity are compelling. Crushed rocks, smoke, graphite, black cherries and spices open up in the glass, but the 2013 is at least a few years away from being ready to drink and it should cellar nicely for some time. Saline notes give the persistent finish an extra kick of intensity. This is a striking Pinot from Williams-Selyem. "(94pts VM)3 bottles per lot $90-120

Medium to full-bodied and packed with rich fruit framed by firm, chewy tannins, it is stacked with complex, evolving flavors and finishes with incredibly long-lasting perfumed notes. According to winemaker Philippe Dhalluin, this needs about three hours of decanting at this stage. I simply love the place this wine is in right now, possessing plenty of mature, tertiary characters yet still sporting bags of fruit. It won't be fading anytime soon either and should cellar nicely for 20-25+ more years."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $400-600

This performs expansively and finishes with authoritative grip and umami-rich, saliva inducing savor. Further fascination arises from a tactile sense of white peppery pungency and crushed stone, as well as from notes of licorice reminiscent not only of the herbal dimension associated with this cru but also of the flavor Arlaud attributes to the ripe stems he included in the

23995 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2010Castiglion del Bosco(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a ripe and fruit-forward expression that bursts with energy and red fruit intensity even at this young stage in the wine's life. Thick layers of cherry, blackberry, cassis, vanilla and cinnamon give the wine a bold, opulent personality. The tannins are super tame and docile, even for this more structured vintage. The wine boasts a medium build with bright garnet and ruby highlights. I think Castiglion del Bosco does a great job of executing and delivering this softer style of Brunello that works so well as a companion to the hearty, wintery foods we love most. You can drink it in the near or long term. It has that level of aging flexibility. The 2010 vintage is a great one to taste and buy."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $80-110

Densely packed red and dark berry flavors are surprisingly lively, with zesty mineral and cherry skin notes adding verve.

24036 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011Sonoma Coast(Wines Located in New York)"...a bit of a darker toned than the Russian River bottling, and also firmer in its tannin.

24037 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir - Vintage 2013Gary's Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Dark plum, pomegranate, blood orange and exotic spices open up in a dense, voluptuous Pinot to drink over the next few years, once the tannins settle down a bit.

The most impressive components are the exceptional richness and textured feel. An opaque dark garnet color is followed by aromas of sweet cedar, old wood, truffles, smoke, and underbrush. Big, thick, juicy, black currant, and cherry flavors can be found in this muscular, monster-sized, exceedingly tannic, dense, backward wine.

The 2011 Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru La Dominode has a complex bouquet delivering raspberry and wild strawberry at first, but there is an undercurrent of cold stone and a soupcon of cold black tea. The palate is very well-balanced with a lithe opening and filigree tannins. Yet there is certainly good structure on the firm, no-messin' finish. The fruit is pure here, very mineral-driven with a hint of spice on the aftertaste. Superb. Drink 2014-2023."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

24080 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Les Grandes Grenachieres d'Hippolyte, Château Simianlscl (Wines Located in New York)"An astonishing effort, the 2007 Châteauneuf du Pape Les Grandes Grenachieres comes from a combination of Grenache vines planted in 1880, and younger vines planted in 1948. An incredible sleeper of the vintage to the extent anyone can find any of the 350 or so cases produced, it boasts a dense ruby/purple color in addition to an awesome aromatic display of spring flowers, sweet black raspberries and black cherries, and forest floor. The wine possesses amazing density and richness, yet flows across the palate like a delicate ballerina. This incredibly old vine material has an intensity, substance, and palate penetration that is nearly beyond belief, yet the wine never comes across as heavy. The purity, depth, and 60-second finish are to die for. As the last five words of my tasting note said, "Where can I find any?" This amazing Châteauneuf du Pape should drink well for two decades or

more."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $70-90

24085 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2009cuvée Reservee, Domaine du Pegau1lwisvl (Wines Located in New York)The opaque purple-colored 2009 exhibits magnificent, rich berry fruit intertwined with cedar, Christmas fruitcake, licorice, charcuterie, roasted meats, smoked duck, kirsch, blackberries and god knows what else. It is an amazingly complex, rich, full-throttle wine that reminds me somewhat of what the 1990 tasted like in 1994/1995. It is a magnificent Châteauneuf du Pape.

24087 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2010cuvée Reservee, Domaine du Pegau1nl (Wines Located in New York)"...is a fabulous wine of exceptional intensity, tremendous flavor authority and full-bodied power. It is slightly more reserved than the more flamboyant 2009, but of course it is still in foudre.

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)1 bottle per lot $130-170

24107 Vouvray - Vintage 2009Clos du Bourg, Moelleux, 1er Trie, Huet1nl (Wines Located in New York)"As brilliant as the 2009 Le Mont Premier Trie was showing, I was wondering if the Clos du Bourg Premier Trie would be able to match the fireworks. No problem! This too is a legend in the making, as the wine soars from the glass in a blaze of botrytized fruit- tangerines, yellow plums, fresh apricots, as well as honeycomb, gloriously deep and complex soil tones and a topnote of orange zest. The nose here is deeper, more youthful and perhaps, in the fullness of time, slightly even more profound than the brilliant Le Mont version. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, pure and very intensely flavored, with the inherent power of the vintage seamlessly woven into an elegant girdle of ripe acids and stunning minerality. The finish is very, very long, brisk and focused, with flawless balance and a distinct closing note of pink grapefruit (that does not make an appearance in the nose at all- even after being open for a week in the refrigerator). This too is a great, great, great wine in the making. "(97+pts JG)2 bottles per lot $110-150

24108 Vouvray - Vintage 2009Le Mont, Moelleux, 1er Trie, Huet2nl (Wines Located in New York)"Pungent candied citrus rind, smoky black tea, iris, quince preserves, and a distinctly alkaline note inform the strikingly intense nose of the Huet 2009 Vouvray Moelleux Le Mont 1er Trie. This elixir of close to 100 grams residual sweetness makes the corresponding "regular" moelleux taste like demi-sec alongside. It boasts an extraordinary mineral presence for a wine so rich, viscous, and honeyed, with saline, smoky and alkaline elements all offering counterpoint, and tightly-wound (or should that be "fast flowing"?) springs of fresh citrus convey energy and refreshment also uncommon in a wine of this ripeness. Here too is the sense of levity that in the best instances accrues to wine from air-dried, subtly desiccated fruit. Expect this seamless beauty to have a glorious future of three or more decades."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $100-140

For a relatively soft and clearly ennobled

Riesling, this preserves a lovely sense of clarity, displaying saline, peach kernel, and brown spice nuances in its long, luscious finish. I would not hesitate to plan on holding this for the better part of two decades, in the course of which it will probably overtake the corresponding Kabinett in complexity."(91pts)1 bottle per lot $30-40

I would be very surprised if this wine did not last another two decades."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $60-80

24122 Barolo - Vintage 2006Cicala, A. Conternolscl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Barolo Cicala is another serious, austere Barolo that is tightly wound at this stage. Here the fruit is darker and more intense than in the Colonnello, while the aromatics tend towards menthol, pine, spices and all things balsamic. Sweet, powerful and layered, the 2006 Cicala finishes with a blast of roasted coffee beans, licorice and mint. This is an absolutely wonderful, complete Barolo from Aldo Conterno.

This vineyard seldom yields wines without firm tannins and slightly angular contours, so the even warmth of the year is especially beneficial here. Smoke, tar, iron, roses and dark red fruit are woven together in

a muscular, virile style that is striking. The finish shows fabulous intensity, drive and focus, virtually covering the tannins."(95pts VM)1 bottle per lot $90-120

24127 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2010Tenuta Nuova, Casanova di Neri(Wines Located in New York)"...is a protagonist of the vintage.

24128 Sammarco - Vintage 2007Castello Dei Rampollalwasl (Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Sammarco is a showstopper. A dazzling bouquet leads to layers of rich dark fruit in this superb, racy wine. The tannins are all about finesse. This isn't a blockbuster Sammarco, but rather it is a wine that impresses for its sexy personality and fabulous overall balance. The 2007 Sammarco is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Sangiovese and 5% Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2027."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $60-80

No one element outweighs the others. The wine presents a delicate patchwork of Sangiovese nuances but does so in the most elegant and understated matter. Feminine in personality, the wine glides smoothly over the palate with gentle, polished tannins. This wine should show well in a few more years."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $55-75

The 2006 is a rich, sumptuous wine bursting with ripe dark fruit, smoke, tobacco, grilled herbs, new leather, minerals and tar. The wine possesses superb density and explosive, utterly irresistible personality. At roughly one-third the price of its big sibling Ornellaia, the 2006 Le Serre Nuove is a must-purchase wine."(94pts VM)1 bottle per lot $60-80

24140 Galatrona - Vintage 2010Petrolo(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Galatrona seems to be going through a closed phase at the moment, or perhaps the bottle we opened was not exemplary. The wine boasts an inky dark appearance with sweet aromas of red rose and sweet cherry. You need to swirl your glass with great vigor to dig down deeper. As you do, it slowly releases tones of toasted nut, exotic spice and dark leather. Overall, the bouquet offers less intensity (especially compared to the exuberant, hot vintages 2011 and 2012 tasted prior to this wine in our vertical tasting). The wine ends with integrated fruit flavors and a pretty point of fresh acidity."(93?pts)2 bottles per lot $160-220

24142 Percarlo - Vintage 2010San Giusto a Rentennanolwisl (Wines Located in New York)" The 2010 Percarlo is shaping up to be one of the elite wines of this great Tuscan vintage. Even today, the 2010 is remarkably seamless, balanced and integrated, with fine tannins, beautifully delineated fruit and exceptional overall balance. Layers of dark fruit, graphite and exotic spices build to a crescendo of aromas and flavors that captivates the senses. Although it is early, it certainly looks like the 2010 Percarlo is set to take its place as one of the greatest wines ever made at San Giusto."(98pts VM)1 bottle per lot $80-110

24143 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2001123, Solaria(Wines Located in New York)"The estate's top bottling the 2001 Brunello di Montalcino 123 is made in a similarly large-scaled, super-ripe style. It presents generous amounts of sweet fruit, chocolate and toasted oak sensations with outstanding concentration and length on the palate. Though not especially typical of Sangiovese it offers lovely overall balance as well as harmony with a lingering note of sweetness on the finish."(91pts VM)1 bottle per lot $60-80

"The flagship offering, the 2001 Numanthia, is fashioned from a 70-100 year old Tinta de Toro vineyard planted at a 2300 foot elevation. After a 28 day maceration, the wine undergoes malolactic in barrel, is aged 19 months in new French oak, and is bottled without fining or filtration. The spectacular, opaque purple-colored 2001 offers an explosive nose of melted licorice, barbecue smoke, blackberries, creme de cassis, camphor, and graphite. Full-bodied with gorgeously rich, concentrated fruit, a layered texture, and tremendous purity, it can be drunk young, but should hit its prime in 1-2 years, and last for 10-15."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70

As I have written so many times in the past, every time I do a vertical tasting of Château Montelena Cabernet Sauvignons, they taste better than my initial laudatory notes suggested.

On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, rich and very ripe, with an expansive core of juicy fruit that has lost none of its youthful vitality and conceals the wine's tannins almost completely. The finish is long and intense. This will delight lovers of powerful, sun-kissed California Cabernet Sauvignon, and now's a great time to start pulling corks."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $90-120

Sappy black and blue fruit flavors are framed by dusty tannins and energized by a tangy mineral note. The licorice quality repeats on the finish, which is broad, sappy and impressively persistent. For a big boy, this is pretty graceful."(93pts VM)1 bottle per lot $60-80

24164 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2008(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits a glorious perfume of spring flowers, blueberries and black currants, good acidity and serious tannins as well as concentration. It is slightly more restrained and backward than the seamless, compelling 2007, but the 2008 possesses lots of stuffing as well as elegance married with purity, power and rare equilibrium."(95+pts)1 bottle per lot $130-170

24165 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2009(Wines Located in New York)"Another super-impressive effort, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts stunning depth and sheer power.

Black currants, pencil shavings, mocha, incense and melted road tar are all woven together gracefully in this powerful, opulent wine. The tannins remain firm, so another few years of cellaring is a must. There is serious density and sheer power to burn."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $180-240

24167 Carlisle Syrah - Vintage 2012James Berry Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"Another rocking Syrah from this estate, the 2012 Syrah James Berry Vineyard, which was mostly destemmed (80%) and aged 16 months in 27% new French oak, offers a full-boded, decadent profile that carries gorgeous notes of creme de cassis, licorice, toasted spice, white chocolate and spring flowers. Voluptously textured, yet with a rock-solid mid-palate and sweet tannin, drink this beauty anytime over the coming decade."(94pts)1 bottle per lot $35-50

24169 Carlisle Zinfandel - Vintage 2011Montafi Ranch(Wines Located in New York)"he 2011 Zinfandel Montafi Ranch is all about plushness. Mint, tobacco, new leather and licorice add complexity to the deep, resonant fruit. This is one of the more straightforward 2011s and has a bit less textural elegance than is found throughout the range. The tannins are firm and also a bit rough around the edges, at least today. The 2011 is roughly 89% Zinfandel and 11% mixed blacks from vines planted in 1926. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026."(90-92pts)1 bottle per lot $25-35

24171 Chester's Anvil Red - Vintage 2011Hattori Hanzo1nl (Wines Located in New York)"Good dark red. Aromas of plum, redcurrant, spices and tobacco, lifted by a peppery syrah note. Broad, ripe and on the soft side, with flavors of plum, tobacco leaf and nutty oak. Immediately approachable wine with

noteworthy length."(90pts VM)2 bottles per lot $30-40

24172 Next of Kyn Red - Vintage 2013(Wines Located in New York)"Possessing an uncommon purity and freshness, the 2013 Cumulus Vineyard #7 is 45% Syrah, 29% Grenache, 15% Petite Sirah and the rest Mourvedre, Touriga Nacionale and Roussanne. It has a perfumed, floral character as well as killer notes of cassis, exotic spice and violets, full-bodied density and depth, and building, polished tannin that emerge on the finish."(98-100pts)1 bottle per lot $320-420

24173 Occidental Pinot Noir - Vintage 2011cuvée Elizabeth, Bodega Headlands Vineyard(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)1 bottle per lot $130-170

24176 Kistler Chardonnay - Vintage 2007Vine Hillnl (Wines Located in New York)"From the vineyard in front of the winery, the 2007 Chardonnay Vine Hill Vineyard is a muscular, powerful Chardonnay with notes of citrus oil, wood smoke, roasted nuts, and tropical fruits. Superb concentration, considerable power, and a thick, layered mouthfeel with zesty acidity acts as a wonderful buttress to this large-scaled Chardonnay."(93-95pts)1 bottle per lot $80-110

24177 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 $70-90

For accomplishing this feat the Golitzens should be doubly proud. Darker colored and significantly more powerful than the 2002,

the 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon displays mouth-watering aromatics of black chocolate, sage, and blackberry liqueur. Its awe-inspiring core of cassis liqueur, violets, blueberry nectar, black cherry syrup, and chocolate is immensely muscular yet elegant. Texturally reminiscent of liquid velvet, it slathers the palate with oodles of fruit, displaying unreal depth, balance, and length. Wow!"(100pts)1 bottle per lot $160-220

24203 D'Arenberg Shiraz - Vintage 2001The Dead Arm(Wines Located in New York)"Readers should be on the look out for the 2001 The Dead Arm Shiraz, one of the greatest examples of this cuvée. Its dense black/purple color is accompanied by celestial aromas of melted licorice, graphite, blackberries, cassis, incense, anise, and toasty oak. Fabulously concentrated, with great purity, an unctuous, viscous texture, and an amazingly long, 60-second plus finish, this fabulous baby will need 5-6 years of cellaring, and should drink well over the following 20-25 years."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $60-80

Full-bodied, massive, and concentrated, with a 45-second finish, this thrilling effort should drink well between 2010-2035."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $50-70
