2005 Bouchard Volnay Caillerets - Cuvee Carnot
1 recommendation
"okay, if you are a beginning wine enthusiast, go out and buy this bottle and put it away. better yet buy 4 and put them away. at some point you will no longer be a beginning wine enthusiast... at that point you will look in your cellar, see this wine, and thank me. if you never progress past a beginning wine enthusiast, you will turn around and sell this wine for more than you paid. and ag..."
Schott Zwiesel Enoteca Wine Glass Stemware
1 recommendation
"everyone has heard the problem with lead in crystal (u haven't heard?? do a little research...) schott zwiesel uses titanium instead of lead. which makes for stemware that is practically indestructible... personally, i like the tritan series for everyday drinking (under $10)... but i love the enoteca champagne flutes (about $20... get the ones with the bigger bulb).... great stemware..."
Mugnier NSG Clos de la Marechale - $76.99 : Vins Rare, The finest selection of rare wines.
1 recommendation
"well, i have yet to taste this wine. but this producer - frederic mugnier - appears to be spot on for 2005 - the next GREAT vintage in red burgundy. his 2005 musigny sells for well over $1000/bottle. this wine at around $80 should be delicious. okay, update - this wine is great, its has the density/animale quality of a nuits st george with the delicate winemaking touch of mugnier, great wi..."

2001 Uvaguilera Ribera del Duero Palomero
1 recommendation
"Palomero 2001 is a totally delicious, big, earthy Spanish ribera w/an awesome nose on it. It is unfined so it really retains a lot of the earthy terroire flavors and accents that I love in big, bold reds. My friend and serious oenophile, Paul, brought this Palomero to dinner last night and we slurped down a bottle. Goes best w/flavorful food as the wine is pretty potent taste-wise. The palome..."
Brancaia Chianti Classico - $22.99 : Vins Rare, The finest selection of rare wines.
1 recommendation
"2004 is a great vintage in italy. classic, not too hot, and this chianti will surely please at a very affordable price point. this producers' super tuscan wine, il blu, got all kinds of awards and was on the wine spectators' top 100 list - somewhere high. so if you wanted to taste a wine from a great producer at a great price from a great vintage... well this would be it..."

Scavino Barolo Bric dël Fiasc
1 recommendation
"Modern barolo producer Scavino hit a home run on this bottle of juice. If you do not own this bottle of wine, you really should. I had it the other day, and while it still was a tannic monster, the impression it left on me was immense. I immediately bought 3. A little know secret, barolos are the true bargains of the wine world. When you compare the prices of top barolos to top burgundies o..."
