1927
Alvear Pedro Ximenez Solera
(Spain)
96 POINTS!!!
"The
impressive 1927 Pedro Ximenez Solera, from a Solera begun nearly 80
years ago, boasts a dark amber color as well as an extraordinary
nose of creme brulee, liquified nuts, marmalade and maple syrup.
Huge and viscous, yet neither cloyingly sweet nor heavy, it is a
profound effort priced unbelievably low. It is meant to be drunk
alone at the end of a meal." -Robert Parker

2001 Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (USA)
95 POINTS "The
finest Private Reserve since the 1991, 1990, and 1987, the 2001
Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve is extraordinary. There are 8,000
cases of this blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc,
and small dollops of Merlot as well as Petit Verdot. A perfume of
smoke, camphor, creme de cassis, cedar, and fruitcake is accompanied
by a gentle giant of a wine. Powerful and impeccably balanced, with
outstanding concentration, well-integrated wood, acidity, and
tannin, and a long, nearly 60-second finish, this saturated
ruby/purple-hued effort is a prodigious example of Cabernet
Sauvignon. Anticipated maturity: now-2020+." -Robert Parker
Robert Parker's Estimated Cost: $120.00

2000 Fonseca Vintage Port (Portugal)
97-99 POINTS!!!
"I was fortunate to try this stunning wine a
number of times in Vancouver and once again in London (side by side
with Taylor). Adrian Bridge, Managing Director of Fonseca mentioned
that the pricing would only increase a small percent above the 1997.
Given the low yields and quality here, I would say that is quite an
accomplishment. Opaque purplish inky color with pungent
violet, spicy and grapey notes. For my palate, even bigger yet more
elegant than the Taylor which is saying a mouthful. Depicting
youthful, expressive fruit with a focused balance of power and
grace. Fonseca will take many decades to mature and will drink well,
late into this century given its formidable and ripe tannic
structure. A monumental effort by David Guimaraens that may later
draw comparisons to the remarkable 1948 and 1966 VPs (two of my
favorites) from this Shipper." -Wine Lovers Page

2000 Chateau
Rochemorin Pessac-Leognan Rouge (France)
95 POINTS "This
gorgeous Pessac shows off vivid color and a seductive bouquet of
Asian spice, leather and cigar box; the fruit is a melange of
currant, black cherry and hints blackberry; the balance is a nearly
flawless combination of elegance and power." -Beverage Dynamics

Graham's Vintage 2000
Port (Portugal)
98 POINTS "Smells
like freshly picked orchids, with loads of ripe, clean fruit.
Full-bodied, medium sweet and very powerful and racy. It lasts for
minutes on your palate. Yet there's a balance and class to this
young Vintage Port. This is the greatest glass of Graham I have ever
tasted, young or old. Best after 2014." -Wine Spectator

1996 Chateau
Cos-d'Estournel St. Estephe Bordeaux (France)
95
POINTS/Collectible! "A
classy and impressive young Bordeaux from an appellation that
stepped up in '96. Dark-colored, with plenty of currant and spice
aromas, the wine is full-bodied, with very velvety tannins and
allspice, berry and currant flavors. Long, long finish. One of the
wines of the vintage, it's a beauty. Best after 2005." -Wine
