Vintage Porto 1989

After 31 years in my cellar still perfect. Crimson color, liquorice taste, roasted raisins, good level of non obstructive acidity. Very enjoyable. — 6 years ago

Reserva Madeira Verdelho

One of the oldest wines I have had the pleasure of tasting! I don’t usually look for Madeira’s but what a treat from sommelier David Morris at Cut NYC! So much power for a wine made before WW1. Great nose, very tangy, and rich. — 7 years ago

Morris Ranch Pinot Noir

All over the map and that’s what made it stand out. Earthy, leather, white pepper, cola, while also heavy on red fruit. Bigger high alcohol pinot yet smooth. Dry, lingering finish. — 7 years ago

Domaine & Selection

Meursault Chardonnay 2007

Domaine Coche Dury is arguably the most sought after internationally of white Burgundy domains according to Jasper Morris MW in his tome “Inside Burgundy “. This wine had aromas of Lemon and Citrus flowers. On the palate Lemon juice - lean with mineral and M plus acidity. In hindsight should have left this last one for a few years. A wine of restraint and elegance - a tinge of honey after a while. For the Coche Dury village style only 25% new wood is used. This wine rarity was suggested to me years ago by a former owner of Prince Wine store and Burgundy nut Phillip Rich. Must seek out later vintages. — 8 years ago

Colheita Porto 1978

Hardly any fruit on the nose, salty caramel, dried figs, tangerine peel, cinnamon stick, a
Poised on the palate, with great purity & elegance.
Tons of spice, dried fruit, toasted almonds & pecans.
Very, very sweet and yet not jammy or cloying. Simply elegant.
Suprisingly fresh & drinkable. And delicious.

Lavaux St. Jacques Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2010

Similar notes from April 2020 when I last had it. A red fruited nose giving a lovely earthy perfume with Sous Bois influences. Loam, compost heap nose. Same red fruits on the medium weight palate with strawberry and a touch of raspberry. As Jasper Morris said in his book, Lavaux St Jacques is one of the cooler sites in Gevrey Chambertin. This is always the last Rousseau wine to be picked and enjoying a longer hang time. After a couple of hours, just a gorgeous nose. — 5 years ago

@Ira Schwartz No the grapes were ripe. Delectable had put the vintage as 2011 which might have misled you. Now changed it to the correct 2010.

@Bob McDonald You are exactly right I did not look at the picture carefully just saw the 2011.

Porto Colheita - Single Harvest Port Blend 1996

Damned fine, but not as sublime as the ‘86 I had a couple years ago. At $50/bottle, might be worth laying down a couple for special occasions — 7 years ago

One of the first few vintages of Bill Sweat's and Donna Morris' Pinot Noir is still drinking quite well. Softened a bit and still has some complexity and is pleasant. — 8 years ago

Rare Liqueur Muscat

This was a real treat. Concentration and Intensity off the charts. Liquid raisins, toffee chocolate and fruit cake with the viscosity and consistency of engine oil. Leading Australian wine scribe James Halliday has never given 💯 points to a table wine but he gave 💯 to this fortified, as did James Suckling 💯 and Huon Hooke 98 points. The base vintages in this can go back to 100 years ( the average base sits between 20 and 40 years). Rutherglen Muscat is one of Australia’s gifts to the vinous world. — 7 years ago
