Scharzhofberger Kabinett Riesling 2013
Ripe and sappy but with a lot of power. None of the brittle anorexia of many 2013s I've had. Excellent. #nymphet #screwratings — 9 years ago

Cuvée François 1er Vieilles Vignes Cour-Cheverny Romorantin 2000

Riserva Rabaja' Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1979
Birthday birth year wine with birthday kittens and birthday friends. Special. #screwratings — 9 years ago
So much fresh, lively energy, yet unmistakably mature Nebbiolo. Don't judge only on vintage.
Giacomo Conterno
Cascina Francia Barolo Nebbiolo 1997
1997. Keeps adding more distinct flavors to its delivery with every minute in my glass (open 2-2.5hrs). Salty Scandinavian licorice, roses, tar, wildflowers, menthol, black tea, beeswax, and something that is either frankincense or myrrh. #screwratings — 9 years ago
Domaine Bertheau (Pierre et François)
Bonnes Mares Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2000
Giving now. 2000 Chambolle doesn't get enough cred. Intensity and gentle lift all day.

To steal a descriptor from a great customer, this is galactic. Spicy, chalky black cherries abound—also joy. Thanks, Dominique!
