The Wines

This was a completely blind event. Wines were served in pairs. One wine in each pair was much more expensive than the other. The group had no difficulty discerning the more expensive wine in each case. The fact that there were no surprises was in itself surprising!

The wines: Four flights of three wines, blind. In each flight, something doesn’t belong. Our job was to find it. We were about half right. The two biggest shockers were that nearly everyone had the ’64 Latour swapped with the ’88 Tignanello(!) and the ’83 Dunn swapped with the ’82 Margaux. I need more Dunn.

2010-3 Bring Your Own Flight

Bring Your Own Flight

June 5, 2010 at 6:00 pm 
 
Bring Your Own FlightThis is sort of a pseduo Syndicate event, with wines provided by the attendees.

Each couple was requested to bring two or three wines for a mystery flight. Good wines. Preferably really good wines. The wines should be related in some sense — year, vintner, grape, whatever — and should cause us to look brilliant or stupid, depending upon the quality of our guesses. In the end, the most important thing is that we end up really impressed by your good taste.

The wines:

Chaney 2007 Chester Gap Viognier (made by Berndt) 92
Chaney 2007 Chester Gap Merlot (made by Berndt) 89
Chaney 2007 Chester Gap Cabernet Franc (made by Berndt) 85

There were some surprises at this event:

The 2002 Nine was much better than the more famous 2001 Nine. The Intergrity was integrated but not exciting,

The 1992 Bin 707 was vastly better than the other two Bin 707s.

All of the Claerndon wines were disappointing.

The best wine in the above list was the Amon Ra, which was the only one likely to age well.

Other standouts were a Mitolo Savitar Shiraz that Dick brought, and a 2003 Henry’s Drive Reserve Shiraz I brought which I thought was more complex than the Amon Ra, but perhaps not as structured.

1959 Hospice de Beaune, Nicolas Rolin
Classic smoke and bacon fat, with a leather and mineral finish. Still excellent fruit.
97 points.		 Red Burgundy 115
1961 Hospice de Beaune, Nicolas Rolin
A distant relative of the ’59, with the same nuances, but lacking depth.
91 points.		 Red Burgundy 135
1968 BV Georges de La Tour Private Reserve
Lovely, floral, somewhat light in color. Drink up.
94 points.		 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Henline
1968 BV Georges de La Tour Private Reserve
Consistently the finest modern vintage of GDLT,
but this was the finest example I’ve ever seen. Incredibly youthful,
I would have guessed a late 80s vintage. Rutherford dust, mint, vanilla, spices.
98 points.		 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 110
1968 BV Special Label Burgundy
Exotic blend of Charbono, Cab Franc and Petite Sirah, still fairly youthful.
92 points.		 Red Napa Alcorn
1966 Penfold’s Grange
Spectacular, dark, inky, chocolate, coffee, shiraz fruit.
First Grange I’ve had that was ready to drink. Worth every penny.
99 points.		 Shiraz Australia 500
1962 Ch. Cheval Blanc
A bit disappointing.
The nose never developed that Cab Franc complexity I associate with Cheval Blanc.
Balanced, but time to drink up.
90 points.		 Red Bordeaux 120
1962 Ch. Lafite
Classic Lafite, still balanced, lead pencil, coffee. mineral finish.
92 points.		 Red Pauillac 100

1996 Echezeaux, Bocquenet
Disappointing, uni-dimensional pinot that could just as easily have been from California.
88 points.		 Red Burgundy 90
1993 Ch. Margaux
Quite disappointing, off balance, youthful but nothing going for it.
87 points.		 Red Bordeaux 100
1994 Dominus
Not as good as the ’91, but still a damned nice wine.
More merlot-like than meritage. Still chewy.
93 points.		 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 120
1999 Turley Zin, Duarte
A wine with no redeeming values.
Off balance, unpleasant fruit flavors, uni-dimensional.
82 points.		 Zinfandel Contra Costa 120

Chocolate to spare in the nose.

92 points.		 Red Burgundy 120
1937 Ch. Cheval Blanc
Dark color, slight browning. Flowers, caramel, cedar, smoke.

Tight, classic Haut Brion. Also seems like a 1975.

Our Last Event

Fred Fenwick did another fine job for us in January.
Favorite wines were the unforgettable 1941 Simi Cabernet (exotic sweet and sour flavors with a dried flower and rough wood nose that evolved into curry) and the ’78 BVGDLTPR, which handily beat ’75 Lafite and Mouton.
