POMEROL CHATEAU PETRUS 1998
WS: 100
RP: 98
Drinking: 2008- 2040
RP : " The 1998 Petrus is unquestionably a fabulous
effort boasting a dense plum/purple color as well as an extraordinary nose of black fruits intermixed with caramel, mocha, and vanilla.
Exceptionally pure, super-concentrated, and extremely full-bodied, with admirable underlying acidity as well as sweet tannin, it reveals
a superb mid-palate in addition to the luxurious richness for which this great property is known. The finish lasts for 40-45 seconds.
Patience will definitely be required. Production was 2,400 cases, about 1,600 cases less than normal. "Anticipated maturity: 2008-2040."

MARGAUX CHATEAU MARGAUX 1988
WS: 97
Drinking: from 2000
JS: "Elegant, complex, seductive and beautifully balanced, with gorgeous plum, raspberry, currant and cedar
aromas that hint at all sorts of exotic spices and chocolate on the exceedingly long, smoky finish. A classic, smoothly integrated
wine that has the balance to develop well past 2000."

PAUILLAC LYNCH BAGES 1985
WS:95
RP: 92
Drinking: 2000 - 2010
RP : "The 1985 has been totally disarming, seductive, and sexy since birth. Its corpulence, medium
to full-bodied personality, low acidity, attractive silkiness, and copious quantities of herb-tinged cassis fruit have always made
this wine a winner. It is beginning to display a few signs that it is at its peak of maturity and will not get any better. In fact,
it might be best consumed over the next 5-10 years. As it sat in the glass, the 1985 faded more than any other vintage, but its immense
up-front pleasure cannot be denied. This is a wine to decant right before serving, and not to linger over. It is a beautiful, elegant
style of Lynch Bages. It is sure to please both connoisseurs and neophytes."
Special price per bottle 75Cl: $380
Number of bottles available: 2
Pauillac Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1994
WS : 93
" luscious Lafite that is silky and elegant with layers of wonderful violet, berry, cherry and chocolate flavors.
