2010 Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 4-17-2013
What does greatness cost? In the Rhône it costs $159.99 a bottle. If you want a truly magical experience you can’t go wrong with Clos des Papes; this wine hits on all cylinders.
Price: $159.99
2010 Domaine Ferrand Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Review Date: 4-17-2013
A perfect example of the greatness of 2010, this wine is packed with fruit, spice, earth and minerals. It will age gracefully for the next two decades.
Price: $69.99
2010 Mas de Boislauzon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 4-17-2013
Classic Châteauneuf-du-Pape with 70% Grenache; this wine bursts with deep, gorgeous fruit while still retaining classic hints of spice and earth.
Price: $34.99
2009 Calon-Ségur, St-Estèphe
Review Date: 3-5-2013
This wine is gorgeous, with incredible, complex red fruits that feel almost Burgundian in style. Such delineation!

2010 Meyney, St-Estèphe (1.5L)
Review Date: 2-18-2013
Sexy black cherry and black walnut flavors with good density. Yum.
Price: $69.99
2009 Pontet-Canet, Pauillac (1.5L)

Tart blackberry fruit with a touch of spice and good acidity. Bright and fresh.

Wow! Gelatin-like black raspberry fruit coupled with tell-tale Margaux elegance and minerality.

2010 Pontet-Canet, Pauillac Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 2-11-2013
A must buy! Wild berries, laser beam fruit, good tension and verve, with a long finish. If you can't afford the First Growths or Super Seconds, try this.
Price: $279.99
2010 Lafite-Rothschild, Pauillac Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 2-11-2013
Dark and brooding, with crushed black and sour cherries. Layered and very complex. This wine will age forever.
Price: $1,629.00
2010 Clos Fourtet, St-Emilion (1.5L) Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 2-5-2013
Atypically elegant for St- Emilion, this wine displays beautiful, complex cherry and wild berry fruit, as well as subtle spice notes. ***1/2. At UGC: This wine displays rose petal aromas and red fruits of all sorts including candied cranberry, red cherry and red currant. Spicy and racy, the wine is still a bit closed off right now. Probably a notch below the perfect 2009.
Price: $269.99

2010 Pavie Macquin, St-Emilion (1.5L) Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 2-5-2013
Made by Nicolai Thienpont (Larcis-Ducasse, Beauséjour-Duffau). Cinnamon, red cherry, round with loads of cherry fruit; this wine has an elegance about it. ***. At UGC: Beautiful wine, with a very pretty nose of red fruit and flowers that's more Burgundian than Bordelaise. On the palate the wine has laser-beam focused red fruit, mouthwatering acidity and vibrancy. This feels like a synthesis of Burgundy and Bordeaux. One of the prettiest wines at the tasting. I am very impressed.

2010 Clinet, Pomerol Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 2-5-2013
One of the best wines I tasted at the UGC, if not the best. This stuff is heaven in a glass. Notes of dark blueberry preserves, hints of graphite and black currant. Tons of energy, with a layered palate that just oozes fruit, layer after layer. This wine is delicious!
Price: $169.99
