CHÂTEAU BEYCHEVELLE 1951
US$522.00
Very high shoulder.
Under Henri III, Beychevelle was the fief of the Dukes of Epernon, particularly the first of them: Jean-Louis Nogaret de la Valette. This Admiral and Governor of Guyenne was all-powerful; according to legend, the boats that passed before his Château had to lower their sails as a sign of allegiance.
Hence the name "Baisse-Voile" (lowering of sails), which was to become Beychevelle, and the emblem of the Château, the ship with a prow in the shape of a griffin guarding Dionysus' cellar.

Leoville las Cases 1996 (2 cases)
US$2,811.80 BBR: GBP2,250 2 cases 12x75cl My tasting notes for this wine begin with the following words "wow, wow, wow!"

The wine possesses an opaque purple color, and an attention-getting, staggering, sweet nose that offers the...

Pichon Lalande 1996 (2 cases)
US$2,128.93 BBR: GBP1,690 2 cases 12x75cl The 1996 Pichon-Lalande is just as awesome from bottle as it was from multiple cask tastings.

This wine normally contains 35-50% Merlot in the blend, but the 1996 is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot....

Egly-Ouriet Brut Grand Cru
US$214.88
The NV Grand Cru exhibits superb, rich, full-bodied flavours with honeyed apple notes, wonderful effervescence and freshness. This offering is not an aperitif-styled Champagne. It is meant to be drunk with food. 92/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Egly-Ouriet Blanc de Noir
US$203.77 The NV Brut Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru, from the Les Crayeres lieu-dit in Ambonnay, is one of Champagne's great wines when it is on, as it is here. Given the relatively recent disgorgement, the wine is somewhat shut down, but with time in the glass, gorgeous, perfumed Pinot notes begin to emerge. This is a totally refined, seductive...

Cedric Bouchard Val Vilaine
US$70.39 93 points Galloni: "The NV (2010) Blanc de Noirs Inflorescence Cote de Val Vilaine is fabulous. The breath and richness of Pinot Noir meets the tension of the year in this vibrant, beautifully articulated Champagne. Sweet red berries, crushed rocks, flowers and mint all come alive in the glass. The 2010 is quite a bit more taut than the...
