16710 Clos de la Roche - Vintage 2006
Vieilles Vignes, Ponsot
(Wines Located in New York)
"Sweetly ripe black fruits in the nose of the Ponsot 2006 Clos de La Roche cuvée Vieilles Vignes prepare the way for a more succulently, generously sweet fruit, plush texture, and generally sunny disposition than that presented by the corresponding Clos St.-Denis. Ripe cherry and red currant flood the creamy, silken palate with sweetness, while some of the same notes of citrus oil, floral perfume (here iris), and peat as exhibited in the Clos St.-Denis swirl about, too. Saline, chalky suggestions help offer contrast and a sounding board to the fruit, and this finishes with exhilarating lift, riveting interplay, and phenomenal length. In an extreme instance of a phenomenon shared by many of the best 2006s, I find this irresistible now; find it hard to imagine its having ornery or sulking phases; yet expect it will be worth following for 20 years."(97pts)
1 bottle per lot $220-280
16711 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 2005
Bonneau du Martray
(Wines Located in New York)
"Ripe yet distinctly discreet and reserved green fruit and floral aromas that are airy, pure and lightly spicy merge into intense, precise and penetrating medium full flavors blessed with terrific acid/fruit balance and huge length. This is really a lovely wine that is presently a tightly coiled spring and in need of extended bottle aging to really put on display the superb potential here. A stunner and one of the best examples of this appellation in 2005."(93-95pts BH)

L. Jadot
(Wines Located in New York)
"A strikingly complex nose of green apple fruit, pear and a distinct floral note complements perfectly the hugely powerful flavors brimming with dry extract and built on a base of solid minerality. This is a borderline massive wine that is textured, concentrated and sleekly muscled yet it remains precise, pure and balanced with positively huge length."(94pts BH)
3 bottles per lot $240-320
16715 Meursault - Vintage 2005
Charmes, L. Jadot
(Wines Located in New York)
"A notably ripe nose of spiced pear, white peach, apricot and citrus nuances merges into rich, full and admirably powerful flavors that are attractively textured due to the considerable dry extract and relatively full for the appellation. This is perhaps less elegant than normal but clearly bigger and more powerful and the solid acid spine keeps everything properly focused."(92pts BH)

J.L. Chave
(Wines Located in New York)
"The spectacular 2007 Hermitage boasts a dense purple color along with notes of creme de cassis, loamy soil, crushed rocks and acacia flowers, a rare opulence and a full-bodied style. Reminiscent of the 1991 Hermitage (a great vintage for Chave as well as most top producers in Hermitage), it should drink well for 20-25 years."(95pts)

16720 Jacques Selosse Vintage Champagne - Vintage 1999
(Wines Located in New York)
"...is an explosive, full-bodied wine bursting with fruit. This is a massive, towering Champagne where you can really feel the sheer density and richness of the fruit.

Full-bodied with surprisingly high tannin as well as gorgeous depth and a multidimensional mouthfeel..."(92pts)

16729 Château Grand Puy Lacoste - Vintage 2005
Pauillac
lscl (Wines Located in New York)
"...exhibits classic Pauillac aromas and flavors of creme de cassis along with stony/floral notes. Proprietor Xavier Borie has created a wine that should rival the brilliant 1982, 1990, 1996, and 2000. Full-bodied with sweet tannin and superb length (a 40+ second finish), the purity of this beauty s black currant fruit is something to behold."(95pts)

16730 Château Haut Brion - Vintage 2000
Graves
(Wines Located in New York)
"Yet, like a great diplomat, it is a wine of intensity, authority, and measured restraint. A supremely elegant offering, its dense ruby/purple color, and burgeoning perfume of scorched earth, liquid minerals, plums, black currants, cherries, lead pencil, and subtle spicy oak are followed by a delicate yet powerfully flavorful, multi-layered, highly nuanced, and extraordinarily pure and seamless wine."(98pts)

St. Emilion

"..boasts a dense ruby/purple color in addition to a flamboyant bouquet of lead pencil shavings, creme de cassis, blackberries, smoked meats, incense, and Asian spice. Fabulously deep and full-bodied as well as ethereal and exceptionally elegant for its explosive richness and intensity, its lightness of being reflects the vineyard s sensational terroir."(96pts)
1 bottle per lot $65-85
16732 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 2002
St. Julien
nl (Wines Located in New York)
"The wine exhibits pure black currant, licorice-infused fruit, huge body, a viscous mid-palate, and a long, heady finish. I suspect this wine won t be nearly as charming as the 2003 in its youth, but it hasn t yet closed down, and I am amazed at just how rich, intense, and full-bodied it tastes even after bottling. This is certainly one of the half dozen or so candidates for wine of the vintage."(95pts)
1 bottle per lot $110-150
16733 Château Leoville Poyferre - Vintage 2003
St. Julien
(Wines Located in New York)
"It is a colossal success and a potential legend in the making. Its saturated, dense inky/blue/purple color offers up notes of crushed rocks, acacia flowers, blueberries, black raspberries, and Crème de cassis. A synthesis of power and elegance, this multi-layered wine has spectacular concentration, sweet but high tannin, and low acidity A stunning effort that showcases this legendary terroir, it is a brilliant, brilliant success."(98pts)

16735 Château Mouton Rothschild - Vintage 1998
Pauillac
(Wines Located in New York)
"It is an extremely powerful, super-concentrated wine offering notes of roasted espresso, creme de cassis, smoke, new saddle leather, graphite, and licorice. It is massive, with awesome concentration, mouth-searing tannin levels, and a saturated flavor profile that grips the mouth with considerable intensity. This is a 50-year Mouton."(96pts)

"...this blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest primarily Merlot and tiny dollops of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot exhibits a gorgeous perfume of spring flowers, subtle mint, black cherries, black currants, licorice, and a hint of new oak. It offers medium to full body, sweet tannins, and a layered mouthfeel that builds incrementally to a sensational finish."(94+pts)

16738 Clos L'Eglise - Vintage 2005
Pomerol
(Wines Located in New York)
"A huge, sweet nose of creme brulee intermixed with black cherry liqueur, blackberries, tar, caramel, and mocha/coffee soars from the glass of this blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Opulence, superb intensity, abundant quantities of sweet toasty oak, a full-bodied richness, and excellent purity as well as depth suggest it will age effortlessly for over two decades."(96pts)

"Aromas of candied limes, smoky slate, and white pepper are found in the explosive nose of the 2001 Riesling Sp tlese Wehlener Sonnenuhr. A sultry, seductive wine, it luxuriously slathers the taster's palate with rich, yet focused, layers of juicy lemons, red cherries, currants, blueberries, limes, and pears. Notes of candied raspberries make an appearance in this exceptional offering's unbelievably long finish. Pure, elegant, powerful, deep, and densely packed, it should get even better with cellaring."(94pts)

(Wines Located in New York)
"Among the most saturated blue/purple/black-colored examples of the vintage, Taylor's 2000 tastes like a young vintage of Ch teau Latour on steroids. Aromas of graphite, blackberry liqueur, Crème de cassis and smoke jump from the glass. Spectacularly concentrated and enormously endowed, with sweetness allied to ripe tannin, decent acidity, and layer upon layer of fruit and extract, this is the leading candidate for the port of the vintage."(98pts)

"Wild, expressive aromas of black raspberry, cedar, lead pencil, mocha, coffee and animal fur. Fat, silky and lush yet dry; a thick, round Figeac with impressive volume. Even the merlot in 2000 showed solid structure. Like the 2001, this shows an intriguing burnt note. Finishes with big but suave tannins and lingering notes of cherry, chocolate and black olive."(91pts IWC)

"A wine of superb concentration and dazzling intensity, the impressive 2000 Lafleur-Pétrus is tasting even better out of bottle than it did from cask. A deep saturated purple-colored, full-bodied, powerful example that is clearly in a class with the 1998, it may be the finest Lafleur-Pétrus made in the last 50 years. The 2000 exhibits plenty of cocoa, black cherry, plum, and currant fruit, a large framework, and impressive concentration as well as power. I always thought this was an improved "bigger" version of the 1975, and I have no reason to think otherwise based on its performance from bottle."(95pts)
