Champagne Bollinger
Bollinger epitomizes what is often referred to as the British style
of Champagne: full-bodied, powerful and rich, more appropriate
at the dinner table than as an aperitif, and dominated by Pinot
Noir. The houses flagship Special Cuve, which is typically austere
on release, features mature notes of toffee and toasted bread due to
the fact that a portion of the wine is fermented in cask and to the
inclusion of older reserve wines in the blend.
Champagne Bollinger Brut Ros
60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, 15% Pinot Meunier
92 | Stephen anzers International Wine Cellar
Pale, bright pink. Expressive aromas o resh red berries, tangerine and
toasty lees, with a suave oral nuance. Deeply pitched but quite energetic,
oering pure strawberry and cherry preserve avors underscored by
zesty citrus and mineral notes. Becomes richer and smokier with air
and nishes with excellent clarity, thrust and persistence. For such a
powerul wine this Champagne is impressively lithe and incisive.
92 | Wine Spectator
Tis oral Champagne oers hints o malt and whole-grain toast,
along with avors o date, spiced plum and dried cherry. Tis shows
ne balance and texture, and a mouthwatering nish o reshly ground
spices. Drink now through 2016.
91 | Wine Enthusiast
Beautiully pale in color, this is serious ros. Its rich and dry character and
its red cherry and raspberry avors are tied together by the nest acidity.
Champagne Bollinger Special Cuve Brut
60% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier, with the
addition on 5-10% reserve wines
93 | Wine Spectator
A lovely, balanced Champagne, with mineral and toast notes accenting
avors o quince, green pear, white peach and verbena. Backed by rm
acidity, this shows impressive texture and nesse. Like a mosaic, all the
pieces come together to make a beautiul whole. Drink now through
2020.
92 | Wine & Spirits
Richness is all in this latest release o Special Cuve, a complex and
supple blend based on red grapes (60 percent pinot noir and 15 percent
meunier with the balance in chardonnay). Structured by reserve wines
aged in magnum bottles, this wines texture unolds with layers o avor,
rom subtle Marcona almond to dark-toned apricot and brighter lemon.
Its creamy, saturated and delicious, balanced or current drinking and
built to age.
91 | Robert Parkers Wine Advocate
Te NV Brut Special Cuvee is abulous. Hints o pears, pastry crust
and hazelnut lead to an expansive core o ruit. Tere is plenty o the
signature Bollinger oxidative style in this rich, enveloping Champagne.
Once again the Special Cuvee is one o the best Champagnes in its
price range. Tis is Lot L114501. Disgorged April 26, 2011. Anticipated
maturity: 2011-2015. Bollinger is o course one o the great names in
Champagne. Te Special Cuvee is typically one o my avorite wines in
its price range...Bollinger is unique among Champagne houses in that

the reserve wines are all bottled in magnum and with natural cork, a
huge, labor-intensive eort.
90 | Stephen anzers International Wine CellarVivid yellow. Poached pear, singed orange and buttered toast on
the ragrant nose. Broad and eshy, with very good depth to its ripe
orchard ruit and honey avors. A zesty note o citrus pith adds li and
a rereshingly bitter edge to the long, gently toasty nish. Tis hey
Champagne would probably be better with rich oods than by itsel, at
least to my taste. (12/ 2011)
Domaine Mule Blanche Paul Jaboulet Crozes Hermitage 2008
90 | Stephen anzer
Greenish yellow. Te nose is strongly reminiscent o Puligny-Montrachet,
showing scents o orange, lemon rind, white owers and smoky lees,
along with a strong mineral undertone. Racy citrus avors give way to
deeper orchard ruit and candied oral qualities in the middle palate,
with a subtle smokiness adding complexity. Te nish is tightly ocused
and impressively persistent, especially or the vintage.
Isole e Olena Chardonnay oscana IG 200892 | Robert Parker
Te 2008 Chardonnay Collezione De Marchi is a model o elegance
and crystalline purity. Clean, mineral notes rame varietal ruit in this
subdued Chardonnay. Tis graceul, elegant white seems to have more
than enough stufng to develop nicely over the next ew years. I would
be tempted to cellar a ew bottles beyond that. Isole e Olena seems to y
under the radar, but insiders know better. Proprietor Paolo De Marchi
cras some o the most engaging wines in all o uscany, and Italy or
that matter. Drink until 2018.
Capo Martino in Ruttaris Silvio Jermann Friuli IG 2005
89 | Robert Parker
Te 2005 Capo Martino is a slender version o this wine. Perumed
aromatics lead to an expressive core o ripe ruit as this medium-bodiedwhite opens up in the glass. oday the oak is especially prominent, and
I am not sure the wine possesses enough plumpness to provide balance.
Calera Chardonnay Central Coast 2010
91 | Wine & Spirits
Josh Jensen makes this wine rom a collection o vineyard sources in
Monterey and Santa Clara counties. Its bright and citrusy with resh
scents o Mandarin orange and lemon, a lusty undertow o smoke
pulling back on all the ruit. Clean and vinous, this is a zesty white or
pan-roasted sand dabs.
Clos Pegase Mitsukos Vineyard Chardonnay Carneros Napa Valley 2010
91 | Wine & Spirits
Intense and richly avored, with a mix o ripe g, honeydew melon
and oral scents. Raw in texture, but should smooth out. Snappy, well-
balanced and complex on the nish. Drink now through 2018.
Frogs Leap Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 2011
Tis is a dry wine o substantial scale that carries itsel well, as it retains
a delicacy to complement ood, not overwhelm. Te alcohol is kept low,
the acidity high, and the avors crisp and rereshing. Just released. No
ratings available yet but this label consistently scores 90+.

Silverado Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 2009
91 | Wine Enthusiast
Te 2009 vintage was a great one or this bottling, which was too sweetin 2008. Tis ones more like the 05, only richer and better. It eels nice
and crisp and dry, with polished, complex citrus ruit, white ower,
peach and mineral avors. Editors Choice
Eroica Riesling Columbia Valley 2010
Eroica has put on racing stripes or the 2010 - a lean vintage with scents
o lime and lemon, revealing a mineral spine rom the aroma straight
through to the nish. Aer a day the structure lengthens a bit and the
avors relax into lemon rom lime, but the wine still has plenty o drive.
Built or the cellar.
93 | Cellar Selection | Wine & Spirits
Eroica has a proven ability to age; in act it needs at least a hal decade
in the cellar to show its real strengths. ight and packed with primary
ruit avors o lime and peach, this beautiully proportioned wine has
perceptible sweetness but plenty o natural acidity. Lively and resh
today, but best given a ew more years in the cellar.
92 | Wine Enthusiast
Te 2010 Eroica Riesling had just been bottled when I tasted it. It displays
similar aromatics but with more elevated acidity, a characteristic o the
vintage that provides considerable rereshment in the nish.
91| Robert Parker
Light and appealing or its delicate pear and peach avors, with hints o
mineral and chalk, dancing lightly through the open-weave, o-dry nish.
Deumayn rez Malbec Reserva Mendoza 2007
92 | Robert Parker
Bodegas Deumayens 2007 rez Reserva Malbec was aged in 33% newFrench oak or 12-14 months. A glass-coating opaque purple color,
it oers up an alluring nose o spice box, mineral, smoke, and black
cherry. Medium-bodied and elegant on the palate, it is mouth-coating,
savory, and concentrated. Give it 2-3 years to ully blossom and drink it
rom 2012 to 2022.
Iscay Merlot Malbec by rapiche Mendoza 2006
50% Merlot, 50% Malbec
Iscay means two in Quechuan and highlights the concept thought
behind this wine: two varietals, two vineyards, two people, rapiches
main winemaker Daniel Pi and Viticulturist Marcelo Belmonte,
who worked together to conceive this unique Argentinian wine. Te
Malbec contributes its deep red violet color with mature plum notes
and generous tannis. Te Merlots provides nesse and complexity with
black ruits, spices and cassis notes. Te blend during one year and a
hal in new oak barrels completes a remarkable amalgam o avors.
Manos Malbec by rapiche Mendoza 2004
91 | Wine Enthusiast
A very rich and so wine made rom hand-squeezed Malbec grapes.
Teres a ton o oak on it, which comes out as coconut and cream on the
nose. Te palate is also creamy, with mocha, sweet blackberry and udge
avors. Cola, coconut, coee and other hedonistic, dark, masculine
accents make this a un and interesting wine to drink now. Best on its
own or with meat.

Marchiori & Barraud Cuartel #2 Malbec Mendoza 2007
90 | Wine Enthusiast
Aggressive smelling early on but then it settles on classy raspberry, cassis
and herbs. Te palate is very healthy, juicy, rich and big, but the avors
o dark berry ruit are subtle and smooth. Chunky, sweet and ripe on
the nish.
Elderton Estate Shiraz Barossa Valley 2008
91 | Stephen anzer
Bright purple. Intensely perumed nose displays resh blackberry,
lavender, star anise and vanillin oak. Bright and resh on entry, with
lively acidity giving li and spine to the black and blue ruit avors.Finishes long and sappy, with lingering smokiness and excellent clarity.
Miguel orres Conde de Superunda Curic Valley 2004
92 | Wine Spectator
Tis has character, delivering powerul currant paste, braised g and
hoisin sauce avors laced with notes o charcoal, tobacco and hot stone.
Oers a strong graphite edge on the nish too, which has some toast to
shed. Dense and powerul. Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenre, Monastrell
and empranillo. Best rom 2011 through 2014.
Via Santa Rita Casa Real Cabernet Sauvignon Maipo Valley 2007
92 | Robert Parker
Te 2007 Casa Real Cabernet Sauvignon (100%) spent 15 months in
95% new French oak. oasty oak, earthy minerals, exotic spices, incense,
tobacco, and assorted black ruits lead to a ripe, rich, pleasure-bent wine.
Give this nicely proportioned, lengthy eort a minimum o 4-5 years o
additional cellaring and drink it rom 2016 to 2027.
Chateau eyssier St Emilion 2007

Fresh, medium-bodied, earthy avors redolent o notes o cherries,
black currants, and loamy soil emerge rom this elegant, charming,

ruited nish. I would anticipate at least 7-9 years o interest here, but
there looks to be no risk in enjoying some young, too.
Louis Latour Volnay En Chevret 1er Cru Borgogne 2009
Intense dark ruby red with a mouth-watering bouquet o plums,
strawberries, liquorice and peppermint this Volnay 1er Cru is attractively
long on the nish with some tannins which still need smoothening out.
92 | Wine Spectator
Tis red has some esh to its bones, with avors o black cherry, raspberry,
peppery spice and mineral. Firm nish. Best rom 2015 through 2030.

Boscarelli Vino Nobile di Montepulciano oscana 2008
91 | Robert Parker
Te 2008 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano shows abulous intensity in
its dark ruit. It is a beautiully balanced Vino Nobile that oers superb
depth wedded to a powerul sense o structure that should allow the wine
to drink well or a number o years. Te Vino Nobile is 90% Sangiovese
and 10% Canaiolo aged in a combination o cask and barrel. Tis is a
abulous eort. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023.
90 | Wine & Spirits
Te ne perume o Sangiovese carries through this wine accentuating
the initial tart cherry scent and the cherry tomato bite o the nish.
Teres errous, mineral-inected tannin to keep it ocused. An elegant
wine on a small scale, this is ready to drink with pasta in a pork ragu.

Shy aromas o vanilla, caramel, plum, brine and cinnamon. Youthulpalate showing resh apple, raspberry and liquorice with rm oak
tannins. Approachable but with Barolos classic muscular nish.
Castello Banf Poggio alla Mura Brunello di Montalcino 2006
96 | James Suckling
Tis is so balanced and rened and polished. I love the berries and
blackberries and owers on the nose. Full bodied, with super well-
integrated tannins and a long, long nish. So much there. Racy and
gorgeous. Give it three to our years to come even more together.
92 | Robert Parker
Te 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Poggio alle Mura emerges rom the
glass with a burst o tar, smoke, licorice, earthiness and wild cherries.
Te sheer intensity and muscle o the ruit saturates the palate rom start
to nish. Te 2006 is an especially round, seductive Poggio alle Mura. A
ew more years in bottle should help the rm tannins soen. Te Poggio

Te 2007 Pesquera Reserva oers up a more complex aromatic
array o balsam wood, espresso, lavender, incense, exotic spices, andassorted black ruits. Savory, ripe, and avorul, it is in need o a bit
more concentration, likely the result o the vintage. It will benet rom
another 1-2 years o cellaring and drink well through 2022.

Ruby-red. Musky aromas o berry skin and cherry, with complicating
notes o dried owers and herbs. Firm on entry, then eshier in the
middle, oering sweet red ruit avors and a subtle peppery quality.
Sweeter on the anise-tinged nish, where the cherry element lingerswith good intensity. Tis will be drinking well soon, or could even be
enjoyed now with a little aeration.

Melis Priorat DOG 2005
92 | Stephen anzers International Wine Cellar
Ruby red. Bright raspberry, kirsch- and mineral-dominated bouquet is
jazzed up by incense, oral oil and Asian spices. Seductively sweet and
pliant, with deep red and blue ruit liqueur avors and supple tannins.
Clings tenaciously on the strikingly long, silky nish, with the oral
qualities echoing.
92 | Wine Enthusaist
Melis is a project backed by industry olks rom Caliornia, but this
blend o old-vines Grenache along with Carignan, Syrah and Caberenet
Sauvignon is very European. Its heady but well balanced, with smoothedges and not too much ery attitude, roughness or scratchy tannins.
Its orward and big-boned, but theres enough creamy richness to make
it riendly. Needs plenty o air time now; should hold well or ve-plus
years. (04/09) 91 points Wine & Sprits: Balanced at the heights o
superripeness, this wine tastes o gs and chestnuts, o the warmnth o
alcohol and the wild stoniness o Priorat tannin. Its massive and strong,
set to match something equally powerul, sucah as wild boar roasted
with dried ruit.
Calera Pinot Noir Central Coast 2008

Tis ne Pinot Noir easily holds its own when tasted against ar more

enormously rich, oering delicious waves o raspberries, cherries,
oranges. cola, bee jerkey and black pepper.
90 | Wine AdvocateAn excellent bargain in Pinot Noir, the 2008 Pinot Noir Central Coast
oers a delicious introduction to the Calera style. Fiy percent whole
clusters were used, and the wine was aged 11 months in Francois Freres
Burgundy barrels, o which 10% were new. Bottled unltered, it is a blend
o ruit rom our separate Central Coast counties, Monterey, San Luis
Obispo, San Benito, and Santa Clara. Attractive notes o roasted herbs,
sweet and sour cherries, strawberry jam, sassaras, and earth emerge
rom this medium to ull-bodied, supple-textured, seductive red.

Frogs Leap Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2008
92 | Wine & Spirits
John Williams consistently grows one o the most compelling Cabernets
on the Napa Valley oor--without ever irrigating his organically armed
vines. His 2008 is elegant and rened, a Cabernet thats not araid toshow some varietal notes o tobacco and herb, along with black cherry
and cranberry avors. Its complex and youthully tannic, all woven into
a seamless nish.
91 | Wine Enthusiast
A very good Cabernet, dry balanced and complex. But its also very
tannic, and is not a wine you want to drink anytime soon. With a solid
core o blackberries, herbs and cocoa, it should come into its own aer2014 or so.
Ridge Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2008
94 | Robert Parker
Te 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is compelling. Where to start? An
expressive bouquet redolent o sweet herbs, tobacco and incense leads to
a gorgeous tapestry o dark red ruit. Te Estate is drop-dead gorgeous,
with the silkiest o tannins that rame an extraordinary nish. Tis has
to be one o the most compelling values in Caliornia Cabernet. In 2008
the blend is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and
2% Cabernet Franc.
90 | Stephen anzers International Wine CellarVivid ruby. Oak-spicy aromas o redcurrant, dried cherry and cola, with
a hint o smokiness in the background. Fleshy and smooth in the mouth,
oering juicy dark berry avors and mounting vanilla and mocha notes.
Finishes with good smoky persistence and resonating cherry and vanilla
notes. Gentle tannins make or accessibility but also suggest that this
will repay at least ve years o patience. Tis wine, made rom the lots

*Cellar Selection* A lovely Cabernet, dry and rich in avor, showing lots

into currants. Teres also a minerally tang. Te wine is immature now,
with hard tannins. Tink o it as a junior version o Ridges Montebello

revealing a dense ruby/purple color as well as lovely black currant ruit
