1 Château Cheval Blanc - Vintage 1979St. Emilionsdc (Wines Located in New York)"Similar to the 85 with its upfront bell pepper and touches of milk, earth and beef. There was also a pinch of szechuan; 79 seemed like the 85 s little brother, possessing less overall of everything. It got greener in the glass and revealed wintergreen flavors. It lacked length, but was still very good. Pierre admired the 79, citing that acidity is the backbone of wine..."(90pts JK)1 bottle per lot $200-280

3 Château Margaux - Vintage 1999Margauxlbsl (Wines Located in New York)"The wine reveals the vintage's flamboyant side in its sweet, blackberry, and cassis-scented nose. With airing, spicy vanillin and toast notes also emerge. Soft and full-bodied, there is admirable density behind the wine's superficial display of charm. The vintage's high sugars have resulted in nearly 13% alcohol."(94pts)1 bottle per lot $300-400

4 Château Mouton Rothschild - Vintage 1998Pauillac(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.

5 Château Troplong Mondot - Vintage 1990St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"...chocolatey, blackcurrant, weedy tobacco-scented noses, and classic, full-bodied, powerful flavors massive finishes that coat the mouth with extract, glycerin, and tannin so opaque that it is impossible to see through spectacular efforts from one of St.- milion's most noteworthy overachievers.."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $200-280

7 Charmes Chambertin - Vintage 1993C. Dugat(Wines Located in New York)"The Charmes-Chambertin (165 cases for the world) boasts layers of flavor, a saturated deep ruby/purple

8 Échézeaux - Vintage 1996Domaine de la Romanée Contibsl (Wines Located in New York)"This medium-to-dark ruby-colored wine has gorgeous floral, perfumed, spicy, and refined aromatics. Its medium-bodied and silky-textured palate offers a fabulous burst of sweet cherries, candied strawberries, and violets. This lively, highly-defined wine also possesses a firm, supple-tannined structure that should allow it to age gracefully for years."(90-2pts)1 bottle per lot $750-1000

9 Échézeaux - Vintage 1995E. Rouget(Wines Located in New York)"Medium-to-dark ruby-colored, the silky Échézeaux (175 cases for the world) is an intensely refined and delineated wine.

15 Chablis - Vintage 2002Fourchaume, Fevre(Wines Located in New York)"Very ripe aromas of apricot and peach. Thick, dense and ripe, with a sweetness of fruit that almost suggests some residual sugar. And yet this comes across as less exotic than "regular" Fourchaume thanks to its strong

underlying minerality. Very rich, fat wine with grand cru texture and a long, highly aromatic finish."(92pts IWC)1 bottle per lot $35-50

16 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1998cuvée de Capo, Domaine du Pegau(Wines Located in New York)"The aromas begin slowly, but then roar from the glass like an out-of-control locomotive, offering up a smorgasbord of candied black fruits, pepper, garrigue, earth, and truffles. Enormously thick and rich, but, amazingly, not heavy, this blockbuster, full-bodied Châteauneuf-du-Pape is still youthful, but should age gracefully for three decades. The cuvée da Capo is frightfully expensive by Châteauneuf-du-Pape standards, but if quality like this existed in Burgundy, consumers would be willing to pay $500 a bottle."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $320-450

17 Hermitage - Vintage 2003J.L. Chave(Wines Located in New York)"...has acquired extraordinary minerality as well as definition since I first tasted it 12 months earlier.

20 Pouilly Fume - Vintage 2011Silex, D. Dagueneau(Wines Located in New York)"A delightfully, pungently intense bouquet of hedge flowers and resinous herbs rises from the glass of Dagueneau 2011 Blanc Fume de Pouilly Silex, anticipating the bittersweet presence of herbal essences and inner-mouth floral perfume that are allied to nut and citrus oils on a dense, subtly oleaginous palate."(92-93+pts)1 bottle per lot $90-120

25 Ornellaia - Vintage 1999Tenuta dell' Ornellaia(Wines Located in New York)"Wow. Currants, berries, cherries and minerals, but all subtlety. Full- to medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a long finish. Complex wine."(94pts WS)1 bottle per lot $150-200

26 Sassicaia - Vintage 2004Tenuta San Guido(Wines Located in New York)"...is a lovely, understated effort. Medium in body, it presents nuanced layers of sweet dark fruit, licorice, menthol and toasted oak that gradually open onto a finely-knit frame of notable length. Today it appears to be quite reticent and still holding back much of its potential. Both bottles I sampled showed less vibrancy and freshness in both color and flavors than the other top 2004s I tasted alongside it, suggesting that the wine is still suffering from bottle shock."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

27 Vega Sicilia Unico - Vintage 1975bsl, outstanding color and condition (Wines Located in New York)"1975 has always been one of Vega Sicilia's great vintages, and this tasting confirmed that the 1975 Unico Riserva has the potential to be one of this historic winery's finest offerings. The wine's beautiful, saturated, dense ruby/purple color is followed by a tight but rich nose of black and red fruits, spices, and toasty oak.

29 Dominus - Vintage 2003(Wines Located in New York)"A big, sweet nose of roasted coffee, Provencal herbs, black currants, cherry jam, plums, allspice, and forest floor is followed by a spicy, rich, full-bodied, fragrant, intense wine. The tannins are sweet, but noticeable in this beautifully complex, strikingly aromatic 2003."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $90-120

33 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir - Vintage 2004Cohn Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"A remarkable Pinot. Broad, rich and opulent, with a firm tannic backbone supporting ripe black cherry, blackberry, mineral, sage, herb and tea notes that border on syrupy.

asphalt, the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon blossoms on the palate to expose a wine of ethereal delicacy yet immense power. Medium to full-bodied, it expands to reveal concentrated layers of cassis, blackberries, red cherries, raspberries, violets, spices, and touches of candied plums. This rich, exquisitely balanced, sweet, and broad wine is harmonious, graceful, and awesomely long."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

37 Penfold's Grange - Vintage 1997(Wines Located in New York)"... looks to be a classic Grange. The wine has a saturated purple color and a gorgeously sweet nose of blackberry liqueur intermixed with cherries, camphor, chocolate, plum, and mocha.

97 Château Rieussec - Vintage 1997Sauternes1lscl (Wines Located in New York)"This wine contains an extremely high percentage of Semillon (usually about 90%), which was to its benefit in 1997.

Well-integrated wood has resulted in a seamless, full-bodied, unctuously-textured wine with considerable sweetness.

The blend is generally 85% Grenache and equal parts Syrah and Mourvedre. Its opaque purple color is followed by a sumptuous perfume of creme de cassis, kirsch liqueur, licorice, plums, minerals, and smoke. Mammoth in the mouth, but surprisingly structured and tannic for a 2000, it is more evolved than its 2001 counterpart.

The wine has a deep ruby/purple color and an extraordinary nose of smoky bacon fat and roasted meats, tapenade, black raspberry, cherry, and cassis.

Cristal is often accessible young, but that is far from the case here. This is a serious, painfully young Cristal that will require considerable patience.

310 Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1991

bsl (Wines Located in New York)"This wine is just beginning to drink spectacularly well. The fabulous 1991 Reserve is the quintessential Napa Cabernet that represents a synthesis in style between the elegance of a first-growth Bordeaux and the ripe, intense, generous fruit of Napa Valley."(96pts)1 bottle per lot $90-120

311 Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1992Napa Valley(Wines Located in New York)"...classic blackcurrant, cedar character. There is plenty of high quality, sexy, smoky oak in the nose to go along with copious quantities of jammy black fruits. Full-bodied, with a creamy texture, and a sweet, expansive, chewy mid-section exceptionally rich..."(94pts)1 bottle per lot $70-90

312 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1995(Wines Located in New York)"...appears to cram everything into its suave, fabulously concentrated, rich, intense personality. Although highly-extracted, the wine manages to avoid being a weighty or fatiguing style of Cabernet. The tannin is sweet, and the acidity offers vibrancy and delineation, but no sharpness."(92-95pts)


313 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2000(Wines Located in New York)"One of the most successful wines for the vintage, Spottswoode s 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is more forward and lighter than either of its two younger siblings. However, it is impeccably balanced and seamless, revealing the estate s classic blueberry, black currant, mineral, and floral characteristics in its moderately intense aromatics. Pure, rich, and well-proportioned, this is a top-flight success in an irregular vintage."(91pts)4 bottles per lot $220-320

314 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2002(Wines Located in New York)"The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon is a glorious example of elegance combined with power, purity and richness. A compelling wine in all senses, it reveals a haunting bouquet of acacia flowers, raspberries, blueberries, black currants, graphite and pen ink. The sweetness of the tannins and medium to full-bodied, extraordinarily poised and breathtaking mouthfeel that builds incrementally is all about nobility and balance. It is an honor to taste this special wine."(99pts)2 bottles per lot $300-400

The aromas capture the ripe berry fruit, adding a pretty floral array, and the tannins are firm yet fine-grained. Long and persistent on the finish."(95pts WS)3 bottles per lot $220-300


318 Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2005(Wines Located in New York)"The utterly profound 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc) will benefit from several years of bottle age, and should keep for 25-30 years. This extraordinary effort exhibits notes of blueberries, cassis, spring flowers, licorice, and forest floor. Beautifully pure and full-bodied with excellent overall harmony as well as superb purity, it reveals a Château Margaux-like personality."(96pts)3 bottles per lot $300-450

327 Gevrey Chambertin - Vintage 2011Mes Favorites, Vieilles Vignes, A. Burguet1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"Here too there is strikingly pretty fruit that is very pinot in character yet the Gevrey side comes through as well with pungent earth and underbrush hints as well as a hint of the sauvage. There is a relatively refined mouth feel to the silky-textured medium weight flavors that culminate in a dry, clean, balanced and naturally sweet finish. If this can add depth it should merit the upper portion of my predicted range."(89-91pts BH)12 bottles per lot $300-400

328 Vosne Romanée - Vintage 2011A. Burguet1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"A mix of both oak and natural spice notes adds breadth to the ripe aromas of violet and plum. The supple, cool and restrained medium-bodied flavors brim with dry extract on the mineral-infused, intense and complex finish that is shaped by firm tannins and excellent length. This is a really impressive villages and worth your attention."(89-92pts BH)12 bottles per lot $300-400

329 Vosne Romanée - Vintage 2011Les Rouges du Dessus, A. Burguet1x12 bottle ocb (Wines Located in New York)"This is quite similar to the straight Vosne though it is more aromatically complex. There is also a similar mouth feel to the refined and intensely mineral-driven flavors that are notably more structured on the impeccably well-balanced finish that delivers very fine persistence."(90-92pts BH)12 bottles per lot $500-700

330 Chambertin - Vintage 2011Clos de Bèze, B. Clair(Wines Located in New York)"...has a very succinct bouquet with red cherries, crushed strawberry and a deft touch of bergamot that is detailed and focused.

339 Pommard - Vintage 2011Clos des Epeneaux, Comte Armand(Wines Located in New York)"This is really quite expressive for a young Clos des Epeneaux with its relatively refined and pure nose of red currant, dried flowers, iron-inflected earth and soft spice scents. There is good power and plenty of punch to the broad-shouldered and muscular medium-bodied flavors that are shaped by relatively fine-grained tannins on the perfectly balanced and highly persistent finish that displays moderate austerity."(92pts BH)3 magnums per lot $350-500

340 Pommard - Vintage 2011Premier Cru, Comte Armand(Wines Located in New York)"This is also really very pretty if understandably, and predictably, more deeply pitched as the earth component is considerably more pronounced. The sleek and vibrant middle weight flavors possess fine intensity and a hint of salinity, which adds depth to the firm, restrained and ever-so-slightly rustic finish."(89-91pts BH)6 bottles per lot $200-280

341 Volnay - Vintage 2011Les Fremiets, Comte Armand(Wines Located in New York)"This is more refined still with an elegant, fresh and admirably pure nose of red and blue pinot fruit, violets and plum. Here too there is excellent detail on the intensely mineral-driven and moderately muscular flavors that culminate in a restrained and understated finish. Good juice with plenty of upside development potential."(90-92pts BH)6 bottles per lot $300-400

342 Volnay - Vintage 2010Santenots du Milieu, Comte Lafon(Wines Located in New York)"As was the case from cask, moderate reduction still renders the nose difficult to assess though it does not seem so severe as to suggest that it's permanent; in any event my score clearly offers the benefit of the doubt that it is not. There is plenty of energy and punch to the rich, concentrated and utterly delicious flavors that are at once generous but beautifully delineated before culminating in a balanced, explosive and gorgeously

long finish."(94pts BH)6 bottles per lot $500-700

355 Nuits St. Georges - Vintage 2005Clos de la Marechale, J.F. Mugnier(Wines Located in New York)"In contrast to the expressiveness of the first two '05s, here there is a completely different aromatic profile and one that is brooding with more deeply pitched and quite ripe blue and violet aromas combining with pungent earth and game hints that continue onto the sweet, rich and sappy flavors wrapped around a firm tannic spine. This is impressive as it is clearly Nuits in character yet with refined and sophisticated structural elements."(92pts BH)12 bottles per lot $900-1200

365 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 2007Bonneau du Martray(Wines Located in New York)"A wonderfully elegant, pure and high-toned nose that is quite floral with a pronounced citrus influence to the green apple and wet stone notes that border on a mineral- reduction character, which continues onto the detailed and equally pure flavors that possess a cuts-likea- knife linearity on the bone dry and palate staining finish."(93pts BH)6 bottles per lot $600-800

366 Meursault - Vintage 2010Clos de la Barre, Comte Lafon(Wines Located in New York)"There is a touch of the exotic to the dried yellow fruit aromas that include lychee nut and spice hints.

There is a saline hint on the long finale where a touch of gas is present so be sure to decant this if you're going to try one young."(91pts BH)3 bottles per lot $320-420

The wine possesses a fabulous texture, a full-bodied mouthfeel and a seamless integration of tannin, acidity and alcohol."(95pts)12 bottles per lot $700-900

371 Colgin Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2010Tychson Hill1x3 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"...offers up gorgeous aromas of lavender, creme de cassis, violets, toast, incense and camphor. Layered,

403 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2003Clos des Papes, P. Avril1ltl, 1 bottle different importer (Wines Located in New York)"The wine has a dense ruby/purple-tinged color and a wonderfully sweet nose of framboise, blackberry, and kirsch liqueur intermixed with Chinese black tea and licorice. The wine is full-bodied and voluptuous, but once past all the glycerin and beautiful, dense fruit of this full-bodied wine, there is striking purity, elegance, finesse, and surprising freshness. Still primary, it looks

set to have a long life of 20-25 or more years."(97pts)4 bottles per lot $300-400

404 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2003cuvée Reservee, Domaine du Pegau(Wines Located in New York)"...stands out as one of the all-time great wines made by Laurence Feraud and her father, Paul. I remember first tasting it from a large tank as it was still fermenting and it was already impressive! It is a full-bodied, powerful wine that must tip the scales at close to 15.5% natural alcohol. I don't think this big, chewy, voluptuously textured wine will ever close down. Dark plum/garnet with the classic Provencal display of garrigue, lavender, pepper, kirsch and Asian plum sauce, this full-throttle wine has splendid concentration, silky tannins, and a very voluptuous texture."(98pts)5 bottles per lot $350-500

405 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2005Clos des Papes, P. Avril(Wines Located in New York)"...packed with dark fig, currant, espresso, licorice and chocolate notes. Superfleshy but seriously structured, there's layer after layer of sweet spice, fruit and minerality pumping through the finish, with lots of latent depth and power. Far more backward than the 2003 or 2004 on release, but since this red typically puts on weight as it ages, it should be a monster-- la the 1990..."(98pts WS)2 bottles per lot $160-220

406 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2006Clos des Papes, P. Avril2nl (Wines Located in New York)"...is one of the two or three candidates for the wine of the vintage. An extraordinarily great wine, the 2006 is far superior to the 2005, which was amazing, and while made in a different style, is as great as the 2003, and such legends as 1990 and 1978. Fashioned from a minuscule 21 hectoliters per hectare, and tipping the scales at 15.2% natural alcohol, the 2006 boasts a dense ruby/purple color to the rim, in addition to an extraordinary bouquet of melted licorice, spring flowers, raspberries, black currants, spice box, and earth. In the mouth, it is utterly profound full-bodied and multidimensional with astonishing purity, length, equilibrium, and intensity."(98pts)10 bottles per lot $750-1000

407 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Clos des Papes, P. Avril1nl (Wines Located in New York)"It exhibits what is probably the deepest color I have ever seen here, and the finished alcohol is a high (for Clos des Papes) 15.5%. Still slightly restrained because of its recent bottling, but wow, what potential complexity, mind-boggling richness, and compelling flavor profile are apparent. It is a sublime expression of the art of winemaking as evidenced by its dense purple color and big, sweet kiss of kirsch, framboise, blackberries, licorice, roasted herbs, and smoked meat. It hits the palate with a fascinating combination of

substance, power, full-bodied authority yet extraordinary freshness, elegance, and precision."(99+pts)6 bottles per lot $700-900

408 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007cuvée de Mon Aieul, P. Usseglio2lscl (Wines Located in New York)"It represents an awesome naked/virginal expression of Grenache from three vineyard parcels planted in sand, clay, and limestone soils. After tasting this wine on five separate occasions, I can state with certainty, it has the most saturated color of any Mon Aieul produced to date. Moreover, its perfume of blueberry liqueur, black raspberries, licorice, roasted meat juices, and lavender is incredible. Full-bodied power, a multilayered mouthfeel, tremendous purity, and awesome concentration put this wine in a class by itself."(100pts)5 bottles per lot $600-800

Medium to full-bodied, it expands to reveal concentrated layers of cassis, blackberries, red cherries, raspberries, violets, spices, and touches of candied plums. This rich, exquisitely balanced, sweet, and broad

wine is harmonious, graceful, and awesomely long."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $150-200

413 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 20052lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"Opaque purple-colored, it has a splendid perfume of violets, wood smoke, truffle, Asian spices, black cherry, and black currant preserves. Opulent and mouth-coating, the layers of complex flavors nearly hide enough tannin to support 8-10 years of additional cellaring. The oak, tannin, and acidity are beautifully integrated and the lengthy finish lasts for well over a minute. Purchasers no doubt will want to try a bottle immediately but this towering effort will not reach its peak until 2015 at the earliest and provide pleasure through 2040."(100pts)2 bottles per lot $320-450

414 Penfold's Grange - Vintage 2005(Wines Located in New York)"The nose begins a bit animal with some smoked game, mincemeat and bacon notes emerging over the freshly crushed, sun-warmed blackberries, black currant cordial, earth, black truffles, anise and allspice. Rich and full with very firm very fine tannins and very crisp acid, it gives a long finish layered with coffee, mincemeat and toast."(97pts)2 bottles per lot $600-800

As it sits in the glass, additional nuances of pepper and grilled steak emerge. There is extraordinary freshness for such a mammoth wine in addition to abundant tannin, an amazing 60-second finish, and a level of glycerin and thick, fleshy texture that have to be tasted to be believed."(100pts)2 half-bottles per lot $350-500

"The firm, broodingly backward, structured, powerful 2000 Ch teauneuf-du-Pape Reserve Sixtine is atypical for this vintage. Its saturated purple color, firm tannin, full body, and long, concentrated finish suggest it will age well for 15-20 years."(93pts)3 bottles per lot $90-120

Fashioned from a minuscule 21 hectoliters per hectare, and tipping the scales at 15.2% natural alcohol, the 2006 boasts a dense ruby/purple color to the rim, in addition to an extraordinary bouquet of melted licorice, spring flowers, raspberries, black currants, spice box, and earth.

It is a sublime expression of the art of winemaking as evidenced by its dense purple color and big, sweet kiss of kirsch, framboise, blackberries, licorice, roasted herbs, and smoked meat.

It spent 24 months in 30% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it delivers an expressive bouquet of pepper, smoke, espresso roast, blackberry, blueberry, and licorice. Full-bodied and voluptuous on the palate, nuances of saddle leather and mineral emerge to complement the layers of spicy blue and black fruits. The wine is beautifully integrated with enough well-concealed tannin to keep this wine evolving for decades.

594 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1998cuvée Laurence, Domaine du Pegau(Wines Located in New York)"The 1998 Châteauneuf-du-Pape cuvée Laurence, the finest example of this offering I have yet tasted (even better than the 1989, 1990, and 1995), spent four years in small barrels prior to being bottled unfiltered. A spectacular effort, it is a monument to great Châteauneuf-du-Pape. A dense plum/purple color is followed by aromas of sweet black fruits intermixed with tobacco, cedar, pepper, and fruitcake. Powerful, rich, and concentrated, with a finish that lasts for nearly a minute, this wine is performing far better than when I tasted it a year ago. It is a legendary Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the making."(96pts)2 magnums per lot $480-600

596 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2003cuvée Reservee, Domaine du Pegau(Wines Located in New York)"...stands out as one of the all-time great wines made by Laurence Feraud and her father, Paul. I remember first tasting it from a large tank as it was still fermenting and it was already impressive! It is a full-bodied, powerful wine that must tip the scales at close to 15.5% natural alcohol. I don't think this big, chewy, voluptuously textured wine will ever close down. Dark plum/garnet with the classic Provencal display of garrigue, lavender, pepper, kirsch and Asian plum sauce, this full-throttle wine has splendid concentration, silky tannins, and a very voluptuous texture."(98pts)1 Jeroboam per lot $400-600

597 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2004Clos des Papes, P. Avril(Wines Located in New York)"...has turned out to be one of the finest wines of the

vintage, tipping the scales at just over 15% alcohol and actually coming a few tenths of a degree within the 2003 and 2005 in terms of power and alcoholic degrees. The wine displays gorgeously sweet black raspberries, kirsch liqueur, and resiny, loamy soil notes."(95pts)1 magnum per lot $100-140

602 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007cuvée de Mon Aieul, P. Usseglio2lscl (Wines Located in New York)"It represents an awesome naked/virginal expression of Grenache from three vineyard parcels planted in sand, clay, and limestone soils. After tasting this wine on five separate occasions, I can state with certainty, it has the most saturated color of any Mon Aieul produced to date. Moreover, its perfume of blueberry liqueur, black raspberries, licorice, roasted meat juices, and lavender is incredible. Full-bodied power, a multilayered mouthfeel, tremendous purity, and awesome concentration put this wine in a class by itself."(100pts)3 magnums per lot $1000-1400

766 Château D'Issan - Vintage 2000Margaux1x12 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"A suave, aristocratic, classic built on delicacy and finesse as opposed to power and blockbuster fruit, the 2000 requires introspection, but what one finds is extremely rewarding.

774 Château Canon La Gaffeliere - Vintage 2000St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"This is a triumphant 2000, flamboyant, super-concentrated, yet classic in proportions. Lavish notes of roasted espresso, melted chocolate, creme de cassis, toasty new oak, and Asian spices jump from the glass of this sensationally perfumed, rather ostentatious 2000. It is enormously concentrated and pure, with low acidity and exquisite balance. Remarkably, in spite of its large size, viscosity, and opulence, it is fresh and delineated. Potentially the finest Canon-la-Gaffeliere made to date..."(95pts)3 bottles per lot $220-300

775 Château Clos de Sarpe - Vintage 2000St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"...is provocative stuff. A blockbuster effort made for readers with nineteenth century tastes, this wine is intensely concentrated, with abundant yet sweet tannin. Its dense purple color is accompanied by a big, chewy bouquet of black fruits intermixed with minerals, smoke, and licorice. While immense on the palate, with high tannin, it has become more civilized after bottling."(95pts)1 bottle per lot $75-100

776 Château Leoville Barton - Vintage 2000St. Julien(Wines Located in New York)"The saturated purple-colored 2000 Leoville Barton is one of the greatest wines ever made at this estate. The wine has smoky, earthy notes intermixed with graphite, camphor, damp earth, jammy cassis, cedar, and a hint of mushroom. Enormous, even monstrous in the mouth, with tremendous extraction, broodingly backward, dense flavors, and copious tannins, this should prove to be one of the longest-lived wines of the vintage and one of the most compelling Leoville Bartons ever made."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $200-280

777 Château Montrose - Vintage 2000St. Estephe2bsl (Wines Located in New York)"This estate has frequently hit the bull's eye over recent vintages, and the 2000 Montrose is the finest effort produced since the compelling 1990 and 1989. This gigantically sized, tannic, backward effort boasts a saturated inky purple color followed by a huge nose of acacia flavors, crushed blackberries, creme de cassis, vanilla, hickory smoke, and minerals. Extremely full-bodied, powerful, dense, and multi-layered, this unreal Montrose should last for 30+ years."(96pts)


778 Château Mouton Rothschild - Vintage 1998Pauillac(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)1 bottle per lot $320-450

779 Château Mouton Rothschild - Vintage 1999Pauillac(Wines Located in New York)"Exhibiting an admirable mid-palate, stuffing, and fatness, low acidity, and ripe, sweet tannin, this will be one of the more forward, seductive Moutons produced over the last two decades. As the wine sat in the glass, notes of new saddle leather, coconut, and smoke emerged. This should be an uncommonly precocious, delicious Mouton-Rothschild upon release, yet it will last for two decades."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $300-400

780 Château Pavie Decesse - Vintage 2000St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"The wine is full-bodied, rich, with striking purity, fabulous delineation, immense body and extract, and sweet but high levels of tannin in the finish, which goes on for nearly one minute. This is undoubtedly the greatest Pavie Decesse ever produced and a modern-day Bordeaux legend. At one-half the price of its sibling, Pavie, it should be obvious what readers should do!..."(96pts)2 bottles per lot $220-280

783 Pride Mountain Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2008

(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a big, powerful wine loaded with fruit. The tannins are equally imposing. Today the wine comes across as painfully

young, but the Reserve has a track record of aging beautifully in bottle, so it will be interesting to see where the 2008 goes over the coming years. Sweet mint, new leather and licorice are some of the nuances that add complexity on the focused, articulate finish. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2028. "(92pts)3 bottles per lot $240-320

784 Pride Mountain Reserve Claret - Vintage 2007(Wines Located in New York)"The two most expensive offerings include the 2007 Reserve Claret. Its opaque purple color is followed by a beautiful flowery nose revealing notions of blueberry pie, blackberries, cassis and a hint of vanillin in the background. An opulent, full-bodied red with great depth, purity and richness, it is a blend of 82% Sonoma fruit and 18% Napa fruit. The texture is like a skyscraper and the wine is plush, opulent and ideal for drinking over the next 10-15 years."(95pts)3 bottles per lot $300-400

785 Pride Mountain Reserve Claret - Vintage 2008(Wines Located in New York)"The 2008 Reserve Claret emerges from the glass with expressive dark red fruit, licorice, leather and spices, revealing gorgeous length and persistence. Firm yet well-integrated tannins frame the fruit beautifully from start to finish. Hints of mocha and sweet spices linger on the close. There is an attractive fleshiness to the Claret that makes the wine approachable and enjoyable even today. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023"(93pts)3 bottles per lot $220-300

786 Pride Mountain Reserve Claret - Vintage 2009(Wines Located in New York)"The Merlot-based 2009 Claret Reserve is gorgeous. Juicy dark cherries, tobacco, smoke and cloves jump out of the glass. The Merlot gives the wine much of its suppleness, while the Cabernet adds the structure and pure mountain tannin. Even with all of its richness, the 2009 remains light on its feet for such a big wine. The 2009 boasts striking balance and tons of harmony. The blend is two-thirds Merlot and one-third Cabernet Sauvignon. Naturally, the Claret doesn't have the personality of the estate's variety wines, but it is compelling just the same. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2029."(94+pts)3 bottles per lot $240-320

787 Pride Mountain Reserve Claret - Vintage 2010(Wines Located in New York)"The 2010 Claret Reserve, 56% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Petit Verdot aged 22 months in 40% new French oak, boasts a stunning perfume of lead pencil shavings, charcoal, incense, blackberries, cassis and forest floor aromas. This full-bodied, concentrated, multidimensional red fills the mouth and coats the palate, but never comes across as heavy or unruly. The tannins are velvety and well-integrated in this spectacular, classic Napa red. Drink it over the next 12-15 years."(96pts)4 bottles per lot $320-450

801 Hermitage - Vintage 1990J.L. Chavenl, sdc (Wines Located in New York)"1990 is the Hermitage appellation's greatest vintage since 1978, and maybe since 1961. I have been tasting Chave's Hermitage since the great 1978 vintage, and the black-colored 1990 is unquestionably the most massive and concentrated wine he has yet produced. Perhaps the real difference between it and the splendid 1989 is that the 1990 exhibits a more roasted character to its nose, as well as a bit more tannin and concentration in the mouth.

840 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2005Faiveley(Wines Located in New York)"...earthy and very ripe mix of briar, dark berry fruit and pungent underbrush aromas leading to muscled, energetic and sappy flavors where the mid-palate fat almost completely buffers the firm though not aggressive tannins that add a chewy texture to the gorgeously long finish."(92-95pts BH)2 bottles per lot $200-260

841 Corton - Vintage 2005Clos des Cortons, Faiveley(Wines Located in New York)"Allow me to cut through everything else and bluntly state that the '05 Clos des Corton Faiveley is quite simply the best young example of this wine that I have ever had the privilege of evaluating. A richly and densely fruited nose that is at once earthy and quite animale along with breathtaking complexity complements to perfection the big, rich and sleekly muscled flavors that are very firmly structured but

again, not at all aggressive and the sheer depth of material on the palate-drenching finish is nothing short of phenomenal."(94-96pts BH)2 bottles per lot $260-350

842 Mazis Chambertin - Vintage 2005Faiveley(Wines Located in New York)"An interesting if slightly odd nose of reduction and menthol notes added to wild, ripe and layered red berry fruit aromas that complement the gamy and completely backward flavors that are highly complex and possess a firm and mouth coating texture."(93-95pts BH)2 bottles per lot $260-350

843 Chevalier Montrachet - Vintage 2002Sauzet(Wines Located in New York)"Words cannot do true justice to a nose like this with its strong citrus, limestone and gorgeously elegant green fruit aromas that beautifully complement pure, silky and wonderfully focused medium full flavors that are so precise that this cuts like a knife through hot butter. As intense and mineral-driven as this is though, there are no hard edges and while there is an impressive acid backbone, the balance is absolutely above reproach. A genuinely great Chevalier and perhaps the best one Boudot has ever made; it certainly rivals both the '99 and the '00, both of which are also great efforts."(96pts BH)2 bottles per lot $550-800

846 Puligny Montrachet - Vintage 2002Les Combettes, Sauzet(Wines Located in New York)(also from a full 1 ha parcel of 50+ year old vines that saw 40% new wood) Aromas that are noticeably riper than any of the preceding wines carry notes of white flowers, ripe peach, apricot and a hint of the exotic such as mango and banana lead to concentrated, dramatically powerful and muscular flavors of knockout length if not quite the same degree of complexity as the best of these 1ers. Normally, the Sauzet Combettes is so good that it rivals the Bienvenues but I find it just a hair in back of the Champs Canet and Folati res. Still, this is awfully good juice.(92pts BH)2 bottles per lot $180-240

860 Amarone - Vintage 1998Dal Forno(Wines Located in New York)"...a supreme example of this wine, almost overwhelming in its aromatic impact, luxuriously sweet, ripe, jammy, and chocolatey, mouthfilling and powerful in flavor, broad and caressing, solid and sustained from the attack to the lengthy, lingering finish, superbly shaped and balanced, pedal to the floor power and shapely elegance all in one package.

Boasting more perfume, a bigger attack and mid-palate as well as greater length and intensity, this beautiful Cabernet reveals notes of camphor intermixed with black currants, cherries, licorice, cedar, and minerals. Full-bodied and opulent with a structured finish, it is accessible now because of its wealth of fruit and concentration, but it should easily evolve for 15 or more years."(98pts)1 magnum per lot $260-350

956 Hundred Acre Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2003Kayli Morgan Vineyard1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"The sensational 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Kayli Morgan Vineyard (100% varietal) is a candidate for wine of the vintage. Although it came in at 15.9% alcohol, it is not the least bit hot or out of balance. The wine boasts glorious levels of creme de cassis fruit and licorice that combine to form the background of a

perfumed, aromatic wine with full-bodied richness, a voluptuous texture and both hedonistic and intellectual appeal that are sine qua non. This sensational Cabernet Sauvignon seems velvety, but every one of Woodbridge's wines that I have tasted is velvety from infancy. Yet they age and age as the 2000, a far from ideal vintage, has proven time after time. There is always a Pomerol-like silky texture to these wines, despite the fact they are 100% Cabernet Sauvignon."(98pts)6 bottles per lot $1200-1600

I would rank it at the top of the pyramid although the 1990, 2000, and down the road, some of the more recent vintages such as 2005, 2009 and 2010 should come close to matching the 1989's extraordinary concentration and undeniable aging potential.

Medium-bodied, lush, intense, and satin-textured, it has exceptional balance, refinement, and a stupendously long finish. While it is not the most powerful Corton-Charlemagne, it has superb focus, detail, and seamlessness. Toast, spices, pears, and ripe apples can be found throughout its complex character.

1190 Peter Michael Red - Vintage 2005Les Pavots(Wines Located in New York)"...is a sensational wine, with a style that suggests a hypothetical blend of a great St.-Emilion and Pomerol. Chocolatey cassis notes intermixed with incense, licorice, and a hint of black olive are present in this wine. When it hits the palate, it comes across as very Pomerol-like, with lushness, full body, and opulence.

1196 Sloan Red - Vintage 20051x3 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"...is rich, full-bodied, but with great elegance and palate presence, without being heavy.

1197 Sloan Red - Vintage 2006(Wines Located in New York)"The wine's dense ruby/purple color is followed by notes of white chocolate, burning embers, creme de cassis, coffee, and scorched earth (think Haut-Brion or La Mission Haut-Brion). It possesses terrific structure,

melted, well-integrated tannins, full body, and is already bursting with complexity. A great success, it is one of the vintage's most thrilling wines."(98+pts)1 bottle per lot $200-280

Flowery, peppery, blackberry and bacon aromas reminiscent of a Côte Rôtie jump from the glass.

It spent 24 months in 30% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it delivers an expressive bouquet of pepper, smoke, espresso roast, blackberry, blueberry, and licorice. Full-bodied and voluptuous on the palate, nuances of saddle leather and mineral emerge to complement the layers of spicy blue and black fruits. The wine is beautifully integrated with enough well-concealed tannin to keep this wine evolving for decades.

A selection of the best lots of Bella's Garden, it is a kinky, but fabulous Shiraz fashioned from very old vines, and aged in 100% new French oak (which is barely noticeable given the wine's concentration).

It is medium-bodied, with extravagant layers of richness yet little weight, and a finish that is all sweetness, ripeness, and harmony. This extraordinary Lafite increasingly appears to be a modern day clone of the majestic 1953. A mere one-third of the crop made it into the grand vin!"(95pts)2 bottles per lot $900-1200

1226 Château Palmer - Vintage 1985Margauxvhs (Wines Located in New York)"It was time to rock with the 80s, beginning with the 1985.

blue/purple hue along with a sweet perfume of blueberries, black raspberries, cherries, incense, smoke, and spring flowers.

1404 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 2005St. Julien3scl (Wines Located in New York)"...is probably the greatest wine made at this estate since Jean-Hubert Delon s father produced the 1986 and 1996. Only 37% of the production made it into the 2005, a blend of primarily Cabernet Sauvignon with less than 13% Merlot and Cabernet Franc. An inky/ruby/purple color is accompanied by reticent aromatics that, with considerable coaxing, offer up subtle notes of toasty vanillin intermixed with lead pencil shavings, wet rocks, and enormously ripe, intense black cherry and creme de cassis. The wine hits the palate with a full-bodied, layered mouthfeel as well as enormous extract, concentration, and purity. This ageless, monumental claret requires a minimum of 15-20 years to approach maturity, and should last for a half century.

1456 Barolo - Vintage 1990Bricco Bussia, Vigna Colonello, A. Conterno4vlstl, 1vlscl (Wines Located in New York)"...is an outstanding wine. When I tasted it, it appeared more structured, tannic, and backward than the 1989. Perhaps it is just the one year difference in age, but the advantage the 1989 enjoys over the 1990 at present is that its fruit is sweeter and more evolved."(94-97pts)5 bottles per lot $1000-1300

1478 Harlan Estate Red - Vintage 2004(Wines Located in New York)"...probably the most precocious and accessible Harlan Estate that this perfectionist team has made. Already compelling, the wine has notes of roasted coffee, charcoal, blackberry, spring flowers, and some background sweet, toasty notes. Dense, fleshy, exuberant, even flamboyant by the standards of Bill Harlan, this wine exhibits no jaggedness or rough edges, has relatively high tannins, but they melt away on the palate.

1480 Joseph Phelps Winery - Vintage 2007Insignia(Wines Located in New York)"The 2007 Insignia (a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot) looks to be one of the greatest wines yet produced at this historic winery. Beautiful aromas of creme de cassis and flowers jump from the glass of this dense purple-colored effort. Sweet oak is present, but it is pushed to the background by the wine's extravagant wealth of fruit and full-bodied power. This is finesse and flavor authority put into a classic Napa Valley Cabernet with a seamless integration of all its component parts. Already complex and approachable, it should evolve for three decades or more, but who can resist it now? It is a staggering, complex expression of Napa viticulture."(98pts)

1489 Château Cheval Blanc - Vintage 1978St. Emilionbn, bsl, excellent color (Wines Located in New York)"There were lots of green olives in the nose, and again that touch of bell pepper, but the green olive was the dominant trait herein.

It had a great nose of pencil, nut, carob, musk and good' barn, you know, when you're in there with the farmer's daughter lol. The palate was creamy, clean, long and balanced.

1497 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 2000Bonneau du Martray(Wines Located in New York)"Shame on me! I vastly under-rated this estate's 2000 Corton-Charlemagne in my barrel assessment a year ago (originally scored 88-90). The finest wine I've ever tasted from this famed domaine, it reveals a rich nose of ripe pears, buttered hazelnuts, and minerals. Medium-bodied, lush, intense, and satin-textured, it has exceptional balance, refinement, and a stupendously long finish. While it is not the most powerful Corton-Charlemagne, it has superb focus, detail, and seamlessness. Toast, spices, pears, and ripe apples can be found throughout its complex character. If this wine continues to improve in the bottle as it did in the final months of elevage, it will be completely mind-boggling."(94pts)5 bottles per lot $400-500

1499 Château Pichon Baron - Vintage 2000Pauillac1vlscl, 1 bottle different importer (Wines Located in New York)"A spectacular effort clearly my favorite vintage of this wine since the 1989 and 1990. An inky purple color offers up notes of barbecue spices intermixed with new saddle leather, creme de cassis, melted licorice, creosote, and a hint of vanilla. The wine is full-bodied, tremendously concentrated, with sweet tannin and a seamless finish that goes on for close to one minute. This wine has great purity, tremendous texture, and fabulous upside potential."(97pts)4 bottles per lot $600-800

1500 Côte Rôtie - Vintage 1999Jamet(Wines Located in New York)"...possesses a striking perfume of roasted meats, violets, graphite, blackberries, raspberries, and cherry liqueur.

1501 Dominus - Vintage 2008(Wines Located in New York)"Made in a more masculine style, the 2008 Dominus has all of that along with bigger body and more structure, fat, density and texture. Both are brilliant wines and they represent the finest back-to-back vintages for Dominus since 2001 and 2002 or 1990 and 1991.

1502 Marcassin Pinot Noir - Vintage 2003Blue Slide Ridge Vineyard(Wines Located in New York)"...is a candidate for one of California s greatest Pinot Noirs.

1526 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2006Mugneret-Gibourg(Wines Located in New York)"This is perhaps the ripest wine in the range with an unusually elegant mélange of oak trimmed red and blue pinot fruit aromas nuanced by hints of violets and the expected pungent earth that is also picked up by the rich and particularly full flavors that possess a natural sweetness, which serves to buffer the classic youthful finishing austerity of a fine Clos de Vougeot."(94pts BH)1 magnum per lot $550-750

1527 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2008Mugneret-Gibourg1lstl (Wines Located in New York)"A deeply pitched nose displays attractive, if discreet, spiced aromas of primarily red berry fruits that include a broad array of warm earth notes as well as animale and underbrush hints that lead to delicious, powerful and intense big-bodied flavors blessed with ample dry extract and a linear, concentrated and driving finish that displays more than a little of the classic austerity of young Clos de Vougeot, indeed one could deservedly call this Cistercian."(94pts BH)4 bottles per lot $1000-1400

1559 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 2010G. Roumier(Wines Located in New York)"A ripe, beautifully complex and unusually expressive nose of pear, white flower, green apple and lemon rind introduces very rich and intensely mineral-driven broad-shouldered flavors that possess excellent size and weight. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension that will make this a pleasure to drink while culminating in a vibrant, pure and strikingly persistent finish."(91-94pts BH)1 bottle per lot $280-380

1560 Meursault - Vintage 2010Les Tessons, Clos de Mon Plaisir, Roulot2lscl (Wines Located in New York)"This is also very floral with background aromas of lemon and lime plus hints of mineral reduction that accurately telegraphs the presence of an intense stoniness on the relatively broad-scaled, rich and muscular flavors that possess an abundance of dry extract."(91-93pts BH)2 bottles per lot $300-400

1563 Taittinger Vintage Champagne - Vintage 2002Comtes de Champagne(Wines Located in New York)"...is off the charts. I have tasted the 2002 now many times, and it has never been less than thrilling. A vivid kaleidoscope of pure Chardonnay aromas and flavors opens up in the glass. The 2002 is at once incredibly rich yet also totally weightless and impeccable in its balance. All the classic Comtes notes are there, but with a level of detail and nuance I don't think I have ever seen before."(98pts)6 bottles per lot $550-750

1564 Taittinger Vintage Champagne - Vintage 2004Comtes de Champagne, Rose(Wines Located in New York)"...is a delicate, perfumed wine. In 2004, the Rose shows quite a bit of Chardonnay character in its precise, chiseled fruit and long, minerally finish. After several hours the wine continued to dazzle with its crystalline purity and fabulous balance. This is a jewel of a wine from Taittinger."(94pts)2 bottles per lot $300-400

1565 Abreu Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 2001Thoreviloslwasl (Wines Located in New York)"One could say this is world-class, but it's really all-universe. A tour de force in winemaking, with notes of blueberry liqueur intermixed with subtle white chocolate, espresso roast, cassis, blackberry and perfumed, floral notes, it is full-bodied, with great flavor purity, a skyscraper-like texture, and a remarkable finish, with a seamless integration of all component parts. This is extraordinary wine that everyone who loves wine should at least taste once or twice in their lifetime. "(100pts)1 bottle per lot $450-600

1566 Kistler Pinot Noir - Vintage 2004cuvée Elizabeth(Wines Located in New York)"Bordering on perfection, the 2004 Pinot Noir offers up sweet plum, forest floor, and violet scents along with a La Tâche-like, ethereal, floral, and black raspberry-like character. This prodigious, deep ruby/purple-colored Pinot possesses fabulous concentration as well as a layered, multidimensional palate, wonderful fruit, sweet

tannin, and good acidity. It should age beautifully for 10-12 years."(96-98pts)2 bottles per lot $300-400

1567 Kistler Pinot Noir - Vintage 2006cuvée Elizabeth(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Pinot Noir cuvée Elizabeth is undeniably a grand cru effort. Black raspberry, spring flower (violets), and kirsch aromas soar from the glass of this dark ruby/purple-tinged wine. Medium to full-bodied with zesty acidity, beautiful penetration, and a soaring mid-palate as well as length result in a prodigious example of Pinot Noir that should drink well for a decade or more."(96-98pts)1 bottle per lot $140-180

1568 Mollydooker Shiraz - Vintage 2006Velvet Glove(Wines Located in New York)"The 2006 Shiraz "The Velvet Glove" has an awesome nose bordering on ethereal.

This is a very serious no-nonsense wine clearly built for long aging."(91-3pts BH)1 bottle per lot $120-160

1585 Corton - Vintage 2009Clos des Cortons, Faiveley1x6 bottle owc (Wines Located in New York)"This sports one of the ripest noses in the entire range with distinctly spicy notes adding interest to the admirably fresh plum and mocha suffused aromas that precede highly energetic, concentrated and big-bodied flavors that are extremely concentrated and the dry extract imparts a seductive texture to the mildly austere, balanced and hugely long finish. This is one of the most promising vintages of this wine that I have ever seen but note that this will definitely not be an early drinker as the supporting structure is more than simply firm."(93-96pts BH)6 bottles per lot $950-1200

1586 Gevrey Chambertin - Vintage 2004Clos St. Jacques, Fourrier(Wines Located in New York)"Reticent but ripe nose is a bit more animal and less floral than usual for this vineyard. Then denser and sweeter on the palate than the nose suggests, with a chewy texture and impressive palate coverage. Very sappy, concentrated and suave, with dark cherry and mineral flavors currently in the deep background. But this offers terrific breadth for the vintage, and the tannins are fine."(92pts IWC)2 bottles per lot $400-600

Latour(Wines Located in New York)"A clear step up in aromatic complexity with a wonderful range of spice nuances, including anise, clove and cinnamon plus ripe dark and gamy fruit aromas where the sense of the sauvage continues onto the rich, full and sweet flavors that possess outstanding volume and power. This is a bruiser of a Chambertin but it's not rustic and I particularly like the mouth coating sappiness on the impressively long finish."(93pts BH)6 bottles per lot $800-1000

1591 Volnay - Vintage 2009Champans, Marquis d'Angerville

(Wines Located in New York)"An incredibly complex, fresh and seductively perfumed nose offers up a wonderfully layered set of ripe red berry fruit, cassis, mineral and spice aromas that introduce sappy and lacy yet serious middle weight flavors that possess both excellent power and fine volume, all wrapped in a magnificently long finish. The tannins are quite firm yet they're also well-integrated as the abundant dry extract pushes them to the background. In a word, sensational."(94pts BH)8 bottles per lot $950-1200

This is still sorting itself out but the quality of the raw materials is impeccable and it possesses impressive potential, which will require at least a decade to realize."(96pts BH)9 bottles per lot $950-1200

1599 Montrachet - Vintage 2011L. Jadot(Wines Located in New York)"Here the nose is notably more reserved with aromas of citrus zest, spice, wood toast, fennel and spice hints. This is also a very imposingly-scaled wine with its big, muscular and wonderfully complex flavors that culminate in a long, focused and explosive finish of breathtaking length and intensity. This overtly powerful effort should reward at least a decade in the cellar and drink well for another."(94-97pts BH)3 bottles per lot $800-1100

1600 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2005Château de Beaucastel1x6 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"...has very high tannins, seems totally closed aromatically, but in the mouth is a weighty wine exhibiting a dense ruby/purple color and tight aromatics consisting of new saddle leather, porcini, meat juices, licorice, tar, and black fruits. The wine is full-bodied, powerful, very tannic, and structured in a dramatically masculine, ageworthy style. This is one for the younger generation or those with considerable patience."(94+pts)5 magnums per lot $850-1100

1601 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Château Rayas(Wines Located in New York)"...is a relatively dark ruby/purple-tinged wine, more intensely colored than most Rayas Châteauneufs tend to be, since they are made from 100% Grenache and color has never been one of their hallmarks. The extraordinarily youthful and still burgeoning aromatics of black raspberries, black cherries, truffles and licorice lead to a full-bodied, powerful Rayas with sweet tannin, adequate acidity, and an ethereal richness and unctuosity that delicately offers a sensual texture."(98pts)2 bottles per lot $1000-1300

1602 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2008Château Rayas1ltl (Wines Located in New York)"Medium ruby, with a classic nose of kirsch liqueur intermixed with Provencal herbs, sandy, loamy soil notes, some licorice and steak tartare, this wine is fleshy, medium to full-bodied, round, generous, and surprisingly seductive and luscious."(93pt)6 bottles per lot $1300-1600

1603 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2008Pignan, Château Rayas(Wines Located in New York)"High-pitched aromas of redcurrant, raspberry, rose petal, and Asian spices, lifted by a mineral quality.

refined, focused wine stains the palate with perfumed flavors of raspberry and garrigue."(91pts IWC)4 bottles per lot $900-1200

1604 Hermitage Blanc - Vintage 2005J.L. Chave(Wines Located in New York)"Pale gold. Fabulously complex nose evokes honeyed pear, apricot, shiso leaf and botanical herbs. Creamy orchard fruit flavors are firmed by juicy minerality, becoming brighter and more bitter with air. This has the texture of a serious red wine, offering dense, chewy pear, yellow plum and peach skin flavors and picking up licorice and toasted nuts on the long, sappy finish, which ends with a whiplash of smoky minerals. Does this ever let up? An incredible young wine."(97pts IWC)3 bottles per lot $800-1000

1610 Arietta Red - Vintage 2001Hudson Vineyard, 'H Block'(Wines Located in New York)"The opaque purple-colored 2001 Arietta (60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc) was very closed when I tasted it. Tightly wound, with dense, full-bodied notes of black fruits, charcoal, smoke, earth, and pain grille, it is big and rich, but tight, structured, and backward.

12-15."(92pts)3 bottles per lot $200-260

1611 Arietta Red - Vintage 2002Hudson Vineyard, 'H Block'(Wines Located in New York)"...this dark purple-colored 2002 exhibits wonderfully refined, complex notes of scorched earth, menthol, mocha, cherries, plums, figs, and espresso. With great intensity as well as surreal elegance and refinement, this beautifully pure effort unfolds on the palate in incremental layers of finesse and flavors. This amazing, noble wine is a tour de force in winemaking for California."(98pts)3 bottles per lot $260-350

ts, wasl, bsl, excellent color (Wines Located in New York)"This is one 1970 that appears to possess the necessary components to develop into something special.

This is impressive as hell and the finish goes on until tomorrow. This particular bottle was served with some of the greatest wines in Burgundy, including DRC, Jayer and Roumier and to a taster, the '93 Confuron RSV was the preferred wine.

1632 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2003L. Jadot(Wines Located in New York)"Super-spicy blackberries and black cherries make up the aromatic profile of the 2003 Clos Vougeot. While Jadot s parcel in this grand cru is sometimes derided for its location (reaching down to the wall by the N74), in 2002 and 2003 two vintages where water-retaining soils

were advantageous the results have been glorious. Its dense, pure personality is medium to full-bodied, chewy-textured, crammed with dark cherries, and immensely concentrated.

1641 Puligny Montrachet - Vintage 2005Clos de la Mouchere, H. Boillot(Wines Located in New York)"Not surprisingly, this closely resembles the Perrières aromatically though there is just enough extra ripeness where hints of orchard fruit creep into the mix and continue onto the generous and sappy medium-full

flavors that offer a beguiling texture and the same pungent minerality on the balanced and powerful finish. This really packs a punch as the intensity is almost painful and the underlying sense of tension and vibrancy is striking."(93pts BH)6 bottles per lot $500-700

1642 Batard Montrachet - Vintage 2002L. Jadot(Wines Located in New York)"This is a huge wine with full-on, expressive aromas of white flowers and fresh citrus extract followed by huge, oily, almost viscous broad and deep flavors that display extremely impressive and fine acid/fruit balance and length that is hard to believe. This is a powerful, precise, almost painfully intense Bâtard that is altogether imposing in its sheer size and power yet it never lapses into heaviness."(93pts BH)1 magnum per lot $300-400


1644 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 1992L. Latour3bsl, 3scl (Wines Located in New York)"It is the most powerful, richest, and deepest wine in Latour's portfolio.

1645 Montrachet - Vintage 2002V. Girardin4scl (Wines Located in New York)"Superripe aromas of stone fruits, minerals and hazelnut.

1646 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1998cuvée Centennaire, A. & L. Brunel(Wines Located in New York)"Dense plum/garnet to the rim, with an extraordinary nose of creme de cassis, blackberry, licorice, camphor, new saddle leather, and scorched earth, the wine is full-bodied, opulent, rich, very pure, and from sound bottles, a great cuvée Centenaire that comes close to rivaling the perfect 1990."(97pts)12 bottles per lot $1800-2400

1647 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1985Château de Beaucastelbsl (Wines Located in New York)"One of the most charming Beaucastels since it was first bottled (and still holding on today), is the gorgeous 1985. Its medium ruby color reveals considerable amber/pink at the edge. This offering demonstrates that

a wine does not need a lot of tannin and power to age well; it s all about balance."(91pts)1 magnum per lot $240-320

1648 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 1998cuvée des Cadettes, Château La Nerthe(Wines Located in New York)"The 1998, which has put on considerable weight since I first tasted it, is a blend of 39% Grenache, 37% Mourvedre, and 24% Syrah. It possesses a dense purple color as well as a glorious bouquet of blackberry liqueur intermixed with aromas of white flowers, licorice, and hints of minerals and garrigue. Full-bodied, chewy, and thick, its enormous wealth of fruit and glycerin conceals substantial tannin. To my taste, this classic is the greatest Des Cadettes made to date."(96pts)1 magnum per lot $120-160

1649 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2010Chimere1x1 magnum owc (Wines Located in New York)"...exhibits notes of blueberries, charcoal, roasted herbs and scorched earth. The complex aromas are followed by a full-bodied, super intense, young, unevolved wine that was bottled April 26, 2012, but still resembles a barrel sample. As the wine sits in the glass, aromas of blueberries, licorice and graphite emerge."(98+pts)1 magnum per lot $2000-3000
