1996 Chateau Rauzan Segla (Margaux)
$ 85.99"Looks seriously good, with a dark color, and smells seriously good, with raspberry and vanilla character on the nose, but lacks some concentration on the palate. Medium- to full-bodied, adding firm and silky tannins. Lots of wood, but should mellow with age. Best after 2002. 8,750 cases made." 90 points - Wine Spectator, January 31, 1999 "The dense, ruby/purple-colored, unfriendly-styled 1996 is tannic, backward, and in need of 8-10 years of cellaring. The wine does seem to possess the requisite fruit and extract, however, to stand up to its powerful structure. Although pure and rich, this wine should not be touched for at least a decade. The sweet cassis aromas of this Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated wine are combined with floral and mineral notes. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025." 88 Points - Robert M. Parker Jr.'s, Wine Advocate #122 (Apr 1999)
1982 Cos d'Estournel (750ml - Full Bottle)
$ 450.00Vintage 1982 Bottle Size (ml) 750 Classification Saint-Estephe, 2me cru classe. Style Red Region France Subregion Bordeaux Bottle Condition Perfect Sub-Region : Bordeaux The Bordeaux wine region wide spreads 60 miles around the city and spans three rivers that contribute to the temperate, humid climate. Bordeaux is widely considered one of the great wine regions, an assertion reflected in the quality and pricing of Bordeaux wines. Bordeaux is most famous for red wines, but is also home to the exquisite dessert wine Sauternes. Five red grapes are approved for Bordeaux wine production: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petite Verdot. White wines, including Sauternes, may be made from Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle. View all our items from Bordeaux Region : France Though French wines are the highest valued wines in the world, esteemed wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne were only enjoyed locally until 150 years ago when transportation improvements made them widely available. French wine production is governed by a strict quality-control system, which regulates the grapes used in each region and classifies wineries according to an elaborate cru hierarchy. Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc are just a few of the important grape varietals with roots in French soil. View all our items from France Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate Atypically thick, super-concentrated, rich, and powerful. Although approachable and even delicious if decanted an hour or more before serving, the wine reveals no signs of age in its opaque dark ruby/purple color. The tannin is more aggressive, but the wine still reveals that fabulous inner-core of sweet, jammy, black currant and black-cherry fruit. Wine Spectator Built for aging. Very dark ruby in color, with a garnet rim. Dried flower and berry aromas. Full-bodied and very solid, with masses of fruit and tannins. Still has plenty of time to go. Best after 2000.
