Château de Malle
Sauternes Sémillon Sauvignon Blanc 2001
What you would expect from a great producer in a great vintage. Complex with expected apricot and honey, but also orange peel and secondary flavors from the oak barrel. Highly recommended. — 10 years ago

Château Cabrières
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2009
I originally tasted this 2009 blind in a CdP tasting and it was, by far, my personal favorite. Incredibly well-balanced, this is a near perfect example of what these wines can be when well made. It's also mid-priced so it doesn't break the wallet. — 10 years ago

Clos du Mesnil Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay 2002

Château Coutet
Sauternes-Barsac Sémillon Blend 2006
Okay, but underwhelmed on the body and flavors. — 9 years ago
Domaine Servin
Les Preuses Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay
Shared at a dinner and, although it was a good bottle, it seemed to lack the freshness, crisp acidity, and minerality that I associate with a very good Chablis. Given this, together with a slightly darker than expected color, it may just indicate a wine fault, perhaps poor storage prior to my purchase. — 10 years ago
