Now, Let's Go Run and See...

The 1999 Antinori Guado al Tasso was good, but was not the bottle I had in Tuscany last month... good and very dried leaves, cedar, tobacco and anise. Pretty, but not as spectacular as I would have liked. The 1995 Pol Roger "Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill" is a monster... a great bottle bubbles. So complex and powerful, but a streak of elegance at the same time. Really beautiful. Nice and toasty, but citrus, anise, and apricots are prevalent as well. Exceptional... Enjoyed a wonderful bottle of NV Gosset Brut Rose last night with my wife... this is not a wine to age, but rather enjoy the power in its youth. Strawberries and raspberries with dried leaves... a great pizza wine (!)...
