d'Or, but sometime back in the eighteenth or early nineteenth centuries, the wall that separates it from the Clos de la Bousse d'Or was built, and it was already a separate vineyard by the time Louis Boillot purchased it in 1865. The 2011 is a superb follow-up to the stellar 2010 version, wafting from the glass in a cool and reserved, but quite complex aromatic constellation of red and black cherries, a hint of red currant, gamebird,coffee, woodsmoke excellent soil tones, fresh herbs and cedar.

Sensationally concentrated, with sweet tannin, but neither weighty nor over the top as might be expected for a wine of such extreme richness, it is an extraordinarily well-delineated Syrah that should hit its prime in 10-12 years, and last for 30-40.

1921 Château Margaux - Vintage 1982Margauxts, lstl, sdc (Wines Located in New York)"We transitioned to the remaining four First Growths in the next flight, beginning with a phenomenal bottle of 1982 Margaux (sourced from Château). The Margaux had a pungent nose, and its t n a jumped out at first. It also had cinnamon, iron, rock and gorgeous perfume. It was beyond licorice according to Dan, and Australian John admired its cherry liqueur. The palate was rocky without the horror but with the picture show, not its usual feminine self, Ray observed. Though spiny and long, the Margaux was still stylish with a touch of that Margaux elegance. This was a great bottle of this wine, and it ended up being wine of the flight, outshowing all the other First Growths."(97pts JK)1 bottle per lot $800-1100

But when it hit my palate, there was no question that a wine with this much glycerin, unctuous texture and richness could only be a great vintage of Pétrus or Lafleur. Sensational!

The color is an impressive opaque dark ruby/purple, and the nose is just beginning to reveal the classic Graves aromas of melted road tar, tobacco leaves, and stones.

This is the first vintage in which 100% of the fermentations were indigenous, and, fortunately, all their Sonoma Coast vineyards were far enough south that they were not tainted by any of the smoke from the ferocious fires that spread through Mendocino. The 2008s appear to be slightly more fruit-forward, with a touch less minerality than the 2007s.

2500 Château La Mission Haut Brion - Vintage 1989Graves(Wines Located in New York)"I am certainly not going to argue with anyone who believes La Mission-Haut-Brion's 1989 is every bit as profound as the 1989 Haut-Brion. It is a spectacular wine, and as it ages in the bottle, it is quickly becoming one of my all-time favorite La Mission-Haut-Brions, ranking alongside the 1982, 1975, 1961, 1959, and 1955. The 1989 boasts a dense, thick, purple color, followed by a sweet, roasted cassis, chocolatey-scented nose with whiffs of tobacco, tar, and minerals. The wine is extremely full-bodied, unctuously-textured, sweet, jammy, and rich. Although it is still a youthful, unformed wine, it is already delicious to drink."(100pts)1 bottle per lot $750-1000

The 47 has never been considered one of the top-tier wines of this legendary vintage, but this bottle shattered that myth. The '47 was creamy and nutty with a sweet, open nose. Aromas of grape and broth were present in this rich, saucy and sexy wine. The palate was lush and chunky, grapy again due to the youthfulness of the bottle, but there was a kiss of toughness to its finish. Its secondary acidity was impressive, and the wine got longer and

One of the three bottles served at the Château's tasting revealed a surprisingly aggressive, minty, herbaceous nose, but the other two bottles were liquid perfection, exhibiting fragrant, cedary, truffle, leather, mineral, and sweet, jammy aromatics, full-bodied, voluptuous textures, exquisite purity and concentration, and a layered, highly-nuanced finish that represents the essence of compellingly great wine. The 1961 has been fully mature for over 15 years, but it seems to get richer, holding onto its succulence and fat, and developing more aromatic nuances without losing any sweetness or concentration.

The wine reveals a dark ruby color with some amber at the edge. An extraordinary nose offers up provocative aromas of grilled meats, sweet black-cherries, Asian spices, balsamic vinegar, and smoke. The wine exhibits superb richness, incredibly sweet, pure fruit, full body, and layers of depth. The finish easily lasts for 35-40 seconds.

As I noted in my original tasting note, this will not compete for the longest lived Rousseau Chambertin yet it is packed, powerful and beautifully complex and is an outstanding wine in any context but particularly so for the vintage.

Its fruit was meltingly sweet, and red mixed in with purple and a splash of black. It was quite explosive on the finish with its tannins and acidity, yet it was still balanced with a wealth of a fruit rainbow. Green olive flavors graced its finish. It was just flat-out delicious wine, still sturdy, long and fine.

Enormously thick and viscous, with low acidity, and mouthcoating levels of extract, this wine's tannin level is high, but largely obscured by the wealth of fruit, glycerin, and extract.

2649 Martinelli Zinfandel - Vintage 1995Jackass Hill(Wines Located in New York)"The 1995 Jackass Hill Zinfandel may be the single greatest Zinfandel I have ever tasted. Winemaker Steve Ryan spent many a night next to the fermenting tanks coaxing this wine to dryness. It boasts the most amazing extract, purity, and mouthfeel I have ever tasted in a Zinfandel, and believe me, California has produced a bevy of prodigious Zinfandels during the last six years. The opaque black/ruby-colored, dry 1995 Jackass Hill exhibits awesome richness and massive body, with an astonishing inner-core of sweet, ripe fruit. Last year I said the 1994 Jackass Hill (97 points) would become my benchmark Zinfandel, but the 1995 may surpass the 1994. When I was asked how much alcohol I thought the wine contained, I said 14.5%-15%, largely because I did not detect any hotness because of the wine's concentration. When I was told that this dry wine was closer to 18%, I was dumbfounded."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $80-110

Hugely extracted, marvelously full-bodied, and unctuously-textured, this amazingly complex, rich, palate-staining Merlot is one of the finest examples of this varietal I have ever tasted from California.

2765 Château Haut Brion - Vintage 1990Graveslscl (Wines Located in New York)"1990: In terms of the brilliant complexity and nobility of the aromatics, scorched earth, black currants, plums, charcoal, cedar, and spices, the 1990 offers an aromatic explosion that is unparalleled. It is always fascinating to taste this wine next to the 1989, which is a monumental effort, but much more backward and denser, without the aromatic complexity of the 1990. The 1990 put on weight after bottling, and is currently rich, full-bodied, opulent, even flamboyant by Haut Brion's standards. It is an incredible expression of a noble terroir in a top vintage."(98pts)1 bottle per lot $550-750

2766 Chambertin - Vintage 1995A. Rousseaunl (Wines Located in New York)"What a sexy and exotic red Burgundy.

2773 Château La Mission Haut Brion - Vintage 2005Graves(Wines Located in New York)"...a blend of 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and a touch of Cabernet Franc. While there is little difference between La Mission and Haut-Brion s terroirs (their vineyards are only separated by a two-lane road), La Mission possesses more fat, texture, and intensity. An enormously endowed wine with huge tannin and structure, the 2005 offers a quintessential Graves bouquet of burning embers, charcoal, blackberries, truffles, black currants, and a meaty character. Reminiscent of the 1989, with more structure as well as a longer window of drinkability, the 2005 may be a modern day, improved version of a vintage such as 1955, which was well-endowed, very tannic, and took a long time to come around."(97pts)1 bottle per lot $400-600

and a splash of black. It was quite explosive on the finish with its tannins and acidity, yet it was still balanced with a wealth of a fruit rainbow. Green olive flavors graced its finish.

The wine exhibits a deep ruby/garnet color with only a slight lightening at the edge. The intoxicatingly perfumed nose of lead pencil, pain grille, red and black fruits, minerals, and roasted herbs is provocative. In the mouth, this wine displays considerable body for a Lafite, plenty of power, and a fleshy, rich, sweet mid-palate. Long, elegant, plump, and surprisingly fleshy, this outstanding example of Lafite seems largely forgotten given the number of high quality vintages during the golden decade of the eighties."(93pts)1 bottle per lot $500-700

3033 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2007Domaine de Ferrand(Wines Located in New York)"An amazing effort, the 2007 Châteauneuf du Pape eclipses what I wrote about it last year. Every time I went back to it, the wine revealed more nuances as well as greater depth. Full-bodied and powerful, it exhibits a compelling bouquet of creme de cassis, ground pepper, incense, seaweed, garrigue, and licorice. The knock-out aromatics are followed by a wine with colossal richness, a multilayered texture, no sense of heaviness, an incredibly deep, penetrating palate feel, and a finish that goes on for 50+ seconds."(98+pts)3 bottles per lot $220-300

3104 Kistler Pinot Noir - Vintage 2010Kistler Vineyard6lwrl (Wines Located in New York)"Ash, game, tar, licorice, incense and dark cherries are some of the notes that emerge from the 2010 Pinot Noir Kistler Vineyard. A pretty, soft, understated wine, the 2010 also has a hint of wildness running through it. At present, the 2010 is a bit compact, but I very much like the sense of grace here. Sweet floral notes reappear on the finish, adding a burst of freshness and vivacity to a finish underpinned by lovely streaks of saline minerality. In 2010 yields were too low for Kistler to bottle the cuvée Elizabeth Pinot. The little fruit that came in was blended into the Kistler Vineyard Pinot. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2020."(93pts)6 bottles per lot $500-650

3174 Château Haut Brion - Vintage 1996Gravesscl (Wines Located in New York)"The Haut Brion was the best showing of this wine that I

3175 Château Haut Brion - Vintage 1998Gravesscl (Wines Located in New York)"As reported over the last two years, this is a prodigious Haut-Brion. It exhibits a dense ruby/purple color in addition to a tight, but incredibly promising nose of smoke, earth, minerals, lead pencil, black currants, cherries, and spice. This full-bodied wine unfolds slowly, but convincingly on the palate, revealing a rich, multi-tiered, stunningly pure, symmetrical style with wonderful sweetness, ripe tannin, and a finish that lasts for nearly 45 seconds.

It is medium-bodied, with extravagant layers of richness yet little weight, and a finish that is all sweetness, ripeness, and harmony.

3177 Château Lascombes - Vintage 2005Margaux(Wines Located in New York)"A gorgeous example of Lascombes, the 2005, a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, continues the remarkable turn-around in quality that began five years ago. A stunningly opulent wine with a dense purple color, the 2005 possesses a beautiful perfume of spring flowers, blueberries, blackberries, creosote, and graphite, full body, silky but noticeable tannins, a layered mouthfeel, and a stunning, 45+-second finish."(95pts)5 bottles per lot $320-450

3178 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 1996St. Julien1nl, 2sdc (Wines Located in New York)"...a spectacular nose of cassis, cherry liqueur, pain grille, and minerals.

3179 Château Monbousquet - Vintage 2005St. Emilion(Wines Located in New York)"A blend of approximately two-thirds Merlot, one-third Cabernet Franc and 8-10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2005 exhibits plenty of toasty oak, roasted herb, meat juice, blackberry, cherry, and spice characteristics along with a touch of incense. Full-bodied and opulent, with an atypically rigid structure, this is a remarkable achievement for such a humble terroir."(95pts)3 bottles per lot $170-220

3180 Château Montrose - Vintage 2003St. Estephe5lscl (Wines Located in New York)"The enormous 2003 Montrose is built along the lines of the 1989 rather than the 1990. It boasts a dense black/purple color in addition to an extraordinary bouquet of scorched earth, blackberries, and cassis, fabulous purity, a skyscraper-like texture, and substantial tannin in the finish. This superb, huge, ripe wine is one of the vintage s most prodigious offerings."(97pts)5 bottles per lot $750-1000

3181 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.

3184 Château d'Yquem - Vintage 1997Sauternes1lscl (Wines Located in New York)"A sensational Yquem, 1997 may be this estate's finest effort since 1990 (although I would not discount the 1996 turning out to be nearly as good). The 1997's light gold color is accompanied a gorgeous perfume of caramel, honeysuckle, peach, apricot, and smoky wood. Full-bodied and unctuously-textured, with good underlying acidity as well as loads of sweetness and glycerin, it looks to be a great vintage for this renowned Sauternes estate."(96pts)2 half-bottles per lot $280-400

3185 Château La Tour Blanche - Vintage 2001Sauternes(Wines Located in New York)"...boasts a light to medium gold color as well as a big, exotic nose of tropical fruits, honeysuckle, orange marmalade, and creme brulee.

3188 Château Rieussec - Vintage 2001Sauternes(Wines Located in New York)"Like lemon curd on the nose, turning to honey and caramel.

I was convinced Prieur had screwed up by placing the 2002 Clos Vougeot after his Chambertin and Musigny, particularly after tasting the heights they achieved in this stellar vintage. I was wrong, it deserved the place of honor. Monstrous amounts of spices imbued with blackberries are found in its powerful aromatics. It is full-bodied, revealing a massive breadth, a liqueur of syrupy cassis and blackberries that linger seemingly forever in the mouth. Its broad shoulders, perfect ripeness, and fabulous density of fruit must be experienced to be believed. This stunning wine melds

super-ripe characteristics with exquisite balance, nobility with boisterousness. Projected maturity: 2009-2024. Bravo!..."(96-99pts)3 bottles per lot $420-500

3197 Clos Vougeot - Vintage 2002L. Jadot(Wines Located in New York)"Delicately spicy 2002 Clos Vougeot is medium to full-bodied, structured and loaded with red cherries, licorice, and earth.

3198 Bonnes Mares - Vintage 2005N. Potel1 taped label (Wines Located in New York)"Remarkably smooth and polished on the palate, offering a scintillating display of smoked, peppered meats, tart berries, pungent tobacco and bitter-sweet licorice, this finishes with unusual elegance, refinement and buoyancy for a Bonnes-Mares, not to mention for a wine of such sheer intensity."(94-95pts)2 bottles per lot $300-400

3199 Échézeaux - Vintage 2005N. Potel(Wines Located in New York)"Interestingly for an obviously ripe wine this remains cool and reserved with spiced wild berry fruit aromas that lead to sappy and distinctly earthy flavors that are robust and powerful with a sappy and seductive finish of considerable length. There is excellent mid-palate concentration and stylistically, this resembles the Suchots though here the wood is better integrated."(91-3pts BH)2 bottles per lot $220-300

3200 Vosne Romanée - Vintage 2005Les Petits Monts, N. Potel(Wines Located in New York)"Deep red-ruby. Vibrant aromas of blackberry, crushed rock and violet.

3203 Corton Charlemagne - Vintage 2004Bonneau du Martray(Wines Located in New York)"Now that this is in bottle, it's even better than I originally thought with a still reserved yet elegant nose of white flower, green apple, pear and natural spice and wet stone notes that introduce detailed, fresh and wonderfully intense flavors that are exceptionally clean and bright, culminating in a bone dry finish replete with superb minerality. This is not as dense as the '05 but the purity here is really something to see and as noted last year, it's sufficiently structured that it will need the better part of a decade to reach its apogee. Note that there was a trace of reduction on the nose and this would benefit from 30 minutes in a decanter should you elect to try one anytime soon."(93pts BH)1 bottle per lot $90-120

3204 Puligny Montrachet - Vintage 2006Les Folatieres, Domaine Leflaive3lscl (Wines Located in New York)"A distinctly more elegant nose that is quite floral in character along with both citrus, pear and white peach nuances that continue onto the attractively stony flavors that are focused, precise and delineated, all wrapped in a sappy and satisfyingly long finish.

3205 Puligny Montrachet - Vintage 2006Les Pucelles, Domaine Leflaive(Wines Located in New York)"A pure, elegant and refined nose of honeysuckle and spiced pear plus subtle lemon peel notes that can also be found on the rich, full, ripe and generous flavors that possess a silky mouth feel due to the impressive amount of dry extract present, all wrapped in a long, sappy and utterly classy finish. This is really lovely and trades less minerality for more refinement. A choice."(90-2pts BH)3 bottles per lot $450-600

3323 Château Gruaud Larose - Vintage 1983St. Julien2sdc (Wines Located in New York)"Typical of the wines this property made in the late seventies and early eighties, it offers a full throttle style,

an opaque dark ruby/purple color with no amber at the edges, and a huge nose of melted road tar, new saddle leather, grilled meats, and black fruits. It is sure to be controversial among those tasters looking for only new oak and fruit aromas. Powerful, spicy, and full-bodied, with surprising viscosity for a 1983, this wine's low acidity allows it to be appreciated now, but there are still formidable quantities of sweet tannins in the finish."(92pts)2 bottles per lot $130-180

3324 Château Lafite Rothschild - Vintage 1981Pauillaclwisl (Wines Located in New York)"This wine is close to full maturity, but it is capable of holding for another two decades. It reveals the classic Lafite bouquet of red and black fruits, cedar, fruitcake, and tobacco-like aromas. In the mouth, this medium ruby/garnet-colored wine displays a delicacy of fruit and sweet attack, but subtle, well-defined flavors ranging from tobacco, cigar box, cedar, and fruitcake. This is a savory, soft Lafite-Rothschild that is pleasing to both the intellect and the palate. Anticipated maturity: Now-2018."(91pts)1 bottle per lot $350-500

3325 Château Lafite Rothschild - Vintage 1983Pauillac3bn, 3lstl, 1spc (Wines Located in New York)"Finally, the 1983 Lafite is beginning to shed its tannin. The wine exhibits a deep ruby/garnet color with only a slight lightening at the edge. The intoxicatingly perfumed nose of lead pencil, pain grille, red and black fruits, minerals, and roasted herbs is provocative. In the mouth, this wine displays considerable body for a Lafite, plenty of power, and a fleshy, rich, sweet mid-palate. Long, elegant, plump, and surprisingly fleshy, this outstanding example of Lafite seems largely forgotten given the number of high quality vintages during the golden decade of the eighties."(93pts)3 bottles per lot $1500-2000

3326 Château Margaux - Vintage 1983Margaux2bn (Wines Located in New York)"Wine of the vintage. Massive, with exuberant aromas of cassis, lead pencil and fruit which follow through on the palate. Full-bodied and incredibly velvety. Long, long finish."(98pts WS)2 bottles per lot $900-1200

3327 Château Montrose - Vintage 1982St. Estephebn, lbsl (Wines Located in New York)"The 1982 had a very spiny nose in a pungent and alcoholic way. Aromas of anise and indoor cleaner dominated with some plum, fig and raisin underneath. There was a lot of cedar in the nose as well. The palate was long, sturdy and spiny, possessing lots of vigor, although it was definitely lopsided towards its dusty back end. The wine started to get a little sappier in the glass and come out of its shell, and flavors of green olives emerged. James Suckling found the 1982 'ever

The 1998 El Pison is made from a Tempranillo vineyard planted in 1945, and aged 18-24 months in new French oak, from yields of only 22 hectoliters per hectare. It offers a deep ruby/purple color and a glorious nose of raspberry jam intermixed with cherries and smoky new oak. As the wine sits in the glass, more complex, floral aromas with a graphite-like character emerge. A sexy, elegant, medium to full-bodied, beautifully made wine transcends the Rioja appellation with a singular style and character. Drink it over the next 12-15 years. This is a classic, yet singular expression of Rioja the likes of which can be found nowhere else in that viticultural area."(95pts)2 bottles per lot $120-160

3591 Château Margaux - Vintage 1982Margauxbn (Wines Located in New York)"We transitioned to the remaining four First Growths in the next flight, beginning with a phenomenal bottle of 1982 Margaux (sourced from Château). The Margaux had a pungent nose, and its t n a jumped out at first. It also had cinnamon, iron, rock and gorgeous perfume. It was beyond licorice according to Dan, and Australian John admired its cherry liqueur. The palate was rocky without the horror but with the picture show, not its usual feminine self, Ray observed. Though spiny and long, the Margaux was still stylish with a touch of that

3593 Château Palmer - Vintage 1986Margauxts, lwrl, vlscl (Wines Located in New York)"The 1986 was robust and vimful, more on the iron-and mineral side of things. It had balanced alcohol and excellent harmony on the nose, really unfolding in the glass with a little airtime. There was cinnamon and a touch of chlorine, as with the 78, but it didn't become a problem this time. It was very spicy and tannic in the mouth. I liked its personality, but I could see it being a bit rugged for many, especially among the Bipinites."(93pts JK)1 bottle per lot $150-200

Almost aggressively young today, with the chewy character and uncanny richness shown by a number of these '90s. Slight heat and a note of mint on the very strong back end.

It is black-purple in color.
