Dinner at a friend's place.
2002 Moët et Chandon Cuvée Dom Pérignon - nose was surprisingly a little floral, fragrant, yeasty. A little ripe and bitter on the palate, with marmalade notes.
2004 Louis Carillon Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes - pronounced grassy nose, a little woody.
1982 Beychevelle - very smoky with lead pencil and minty notes. Very big and lean nose that is classic Left Bank. After 2 hours, the nose was really beautiful, with more ripe fruit, but also a little sharp and alcoholic.
1986 Montrose - ripe nose with grilled meats, leather and smoky notes.
1999 Cheval Blanc - a bit spicy, smoky, slightly ripe and sweet nose. Tannins are still here.
1999 Lafleur - pretty heavy smoke, a little bit peppery, alcoholic with a hint of savory notes.
1996 Harlan Estate - really ripe and alcoholic, almost like paint-thinner with its sharpness. Really sweet on the palate. Later on a little dusty in the nose.
