1992 - Moet Chandon Dom Perignon Champagne Blend |
Not the Bread Yeast over tones of the 2000 vintage |

The botlle was drank over a period of 1 month. Still below my favorite vintage of 1968, but very enjoyable. Crisp, semi-dry, and faultless. I may be a wine lover, but believe in moderation.
Cheers all |

With my previous dissapointments with younger vintages, I decided on this one even though it showed some sepage,but fill at base of neck. Knew I might be in trouble after the capsule was challenging, but cleaned it up and attempted cork removal. The cork fell apart, so after gaining access to contents I drianed into a coffee filter to fill a caraf. Could not wait for my first taste to see if the wine was corked. WOW!!! Nice, mild, with a long finish. Wish I had a case. Now I wonder what it will be like in an hour or so after possibly opening up more. |

2005 - Fleur de Gay, La Bordeaux Blend |
Excellent young Pomerol |

| Very nice, a bit mild but it was a Pomerol. Young but very dinkable. I would recommend for those weary of the Frech Reds as a stepping stone to the classic Bordeaux right bank Grand Cru. Cheers all!!! |

Millenium hype or drank too soon |

| Might as well had a sparkling white from outside the champagne region, but had a great experience earlier and forgot the vintage year. Used to celebrate my return from Iraq, and found at a reasonable price, so not too dissapointed. In retrospect, should have had a Pannier extra brut that won the silver. Chears all!!! |

2005 - Beausejour Becot, Chateau |
1st Bordeaux red after 15 month deployment |
| Jan 18, 2009 |

|
| What can I say... With my lack of being able to drink wine for over a year at first I was dissappointed. Regarded it as a "'vin de table" at first experience, but as a young Bordeaux Red gave most of the botle a second chance the next day. Still sharp but more enjoyable the next day. It is my hope my other bottles will age well, but will revisit in 5-10 years. Tanins show it will keep and hopefully open up over the next decade. Cheers all!!! |
