This is an excellent offering from them. While there P. Hill is their flagship wine, I’ll take more bottles of this for the money.

Spécial Club Grand Cru Brut Rosé Champagne 2012

We are testing this between two glasses! I prefer the Jamesse by far (although the shape is there on this glass....I am not convinced it is truly Crystal).

As for this Bubbly..I have waited months for its arrivaI and I am so thrilled!! This is a glass of total refinement..tangerine..cotton candy..minerals...red berries..Brioche...just super delicious!! I was able to acquire two bottles of this...will let the next one age several years!!

I am accompanying this with Vivaldi...(my Son's nickname while he was in QC Youth Symphony)

Penfolds

Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon 1998

For my son's 20th birthday, I think this 19 year old, Australian Cabernet, will be appropriate. It's also going to take care of my Friday's fix nicely...

What a beautiful color on this beauty. Ruby in color with a burgundy rim. Almost showing no age at all.

After an hour in the decanter, fruity nose with blueberries, cherries, strawberries, black currants, leather, oak, vanilla, licorice, light green pepper, smoke and black pepper. Very gentle and aromatic.

Medium plus in body, smooth and elegant, with medium plus acidity and awesome looking legs.

Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, blueberries, cloves, licorice, vanilla, cedar, leather, dirt, pencil lead, earth, cola, white pepper and spices.

A very long finish with very fine grained tannins and tart cherries.

What an awesome wine this is. Well-balanced and very enjoyable by itself. So elegant, complex and velvety.
It smells and tastes a lot like a Napa Cabernet, which surprised me a little.

Aged for 15 months in American oak barrels.

14% alcohol by volume.

You just like a Bdx, you're improving with age my friend. Enjoy family as there is no better blessing or gift (in my mind, anyway).

Bought as part of my son's birth year cellar. Initial shy. Reserved fruit. Gains color with air, always a good sign for a young wine, in my opinion. On day two/three, shows more savory cherry fruit and more structure than I initially recognized. This may improve in the Cellar better than I expected. — 9 years ago
