Wine: 2004 Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque Champagne 92 rating Wine Spectator. “Elegant, with lovely texture and focused, lively acidity. Flavors of currant, candied lemon zest, honey and white peach lead to the creamy, biscuit-tinged finish.” 2011 Catherine Pascal Rollet Pouilly-Fuisee Les Grands Burgundy 91 rating Wine Spectator. “Defined by an apple flavor, this offers underlying notes of grapefruit and spice. Well-integrated, with a supple, polished texture and a terrific finish. A winner.” 2002 Nicolas Rossignol Vonay Santenots Burgundy 91 rating Wine Spectator. “Fresh and pure, with a hint of cinnamon adding a grace note of spice to the cherry, licorice and mineral flavors.” 1999 Chateau Leoville Barton St-Julien Bordeaux 91 rating Wine Spectator. “A powerful nose, with sweet tobacco and sultana, follows through to a full body, featuring ultrafine tannins and a long, long finish, as well as lovely texture.” 2003 Chateau Guiraud Sauternes 95 rating Wine Spectator. “This is very sweet and rich on the nose, with toffee, honey and spices. Full-bodied, with thick honey, spice, dried apricot and syrup flavors. Lasts for minutes on the palate. Big botrytis bomb. Love it.”
