100 points Jane Anson: "This took home the audience award at the 67 Pall Mall tasting that I was hosting, with good reason. What a brilliant example of why Sauternes should be left to gather nuance and to shed its more exuberant, fattier early years before opening. This is just a masterclass in the layers and complexity that you find in fully mature Yquem; saffron, truffle, pineapple, quince, lime, apricots and lemon. Hugely persistent with a squeeze of scraping slate acidity through the final few minutes that gives a dry but mouthwatering finish. It is ...

Styles vary tremendously across Armagnac and Domaine Séailles' flavor profile falls firmly in the middle between the two extremes of woody or fruity. The small 2.5 acre plot of Ugni Blanc on clay limestone soils makes for a brandy that has generous fruit, but a mineral backbone that stands up to long aging in French oak. As the brandy crests the 30 year mark it begins to develop distinct secondary sweetness notes as the fruit/wood interplay develops. Lots of maple/molasses/honey tones mark the '89 without sacrificing fruit. The stone fruit flavors jump o...

Wine Spectator: "A fresh and delicious '89. Medium-dark ruby in color. Aromas of flowers, berries and cassis. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a delicious, fresh fruit aftertaste." (05/1999) K&L Notes: A personal favorite of K&L founder Clyde Beffa, Labégorce appeals to those with a preference for 'old school' Bordeaux: structured, earthy, meaty, and rustic, with dark fruits and classic Margaux minerality. Time in bottle brings out additional complexity, as the tannins soften as secondary and tertiary aromas and flavors of dried fruits, tobacco, wo...

90 points Wine Advocate: "Once again this estate revealed its excellent quality/price ratio. As one taster so appropriately stated after learning the identity of both the 1989 and 1990 Sociando-Mallets, "I'd rather have the '89 or '90 Sociando-Mallet than the '89 Margaux or '90 Mouton in my cellar." Both wines showed surprisingly well, performing at second or third-growth levels. The 1989 reveals a youthful, unevolved purple color, followed by a sweet nose of black fruits, minerals, and vanillin. The wine is extremely young (much more so than most 1989s)...

96 points Wine Enthusiast: "This very pale rosé has the richness of toast and croissant that comes from complete maturity. It also features fresh hints of the red and white fruits that were present during the wine’s younger years. This is ready to drink now. (RV)" (12/2012) 95 points Wine Spectator: "Rich and creamy, this is aging gracefully. The finely tuned acidity and lightly beaded texture provide an elegant frame for the layers of coffee liqueur, toasted almond, cherry bon bon, iodine and orange peel flavors. The long finish is tinged subtly with ...

We've been carrying the Baraillon Armagnacs for years now and it's been a match made in heaven for K&L, the Claverie family, and our customers—we're their biggest account and their biggest fans. There's something special about walking into the tasting room at Baraillon, which is really just a little hut next to their home with plastic furniture and humble offerings (like fresh foie gras straight from the farm next door). Mr. Baraillon will come in from feeding the pigs wearing rubber boots, while his daughter Laurence stands by quietly, yet does most of ...

Wine Advocate: "The 1989 displays an enthralling bouquet of black-cherries, spring flowers, minerals and toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, it possesses good acidity for the vintage, soft tannins, and a long, velvety, rich finish. This is a stylish yet authoritative La Gaffeliere. (RP)" (02/1993)
Price: $179.99
Wine Advocate: "In time, the 1989 Potensac should rival both the 1986 and 1982 as the best wine produced at this cru bourgeois property during the decade of the eighties. It is a big, intense, alcoholic wine with exceptional ripeness, full body, and a long, chewy, fleshy finish. (RP)" (04/1992)
Price: $89.99
99 points Wine Advocate: "One of the all-time great vintages for this château is the 1989 Lynch-Bages, a striking wine that offers up pure and intense aromas of cassis, pencil shavings, spring flowers and hints of cigar wrapper. Full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, it's seamless and concentrated, with a rich core of fruit, ripe tannins and a beautifully defined finish. Still an infant at age 32, it surpasses all three of Pauillac's first growths in 1989. (WK)" (02/2022) 96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "A tight, almost closed bottle, the 1989 Château Lynch-Ba...

95 points Wine Spectator: "Huge wine. Dark ruby-colored. Intense aromas of ripe fruit and game. Full-bodied and compacted, with masses of tannins and fruit, yet still closed and not giving much on the palate. Give this brute time. Best Cantemerle ever? (JS)" (05/1999) 92 points John Gilman: "I have always liked the 1989 Château Cantemerle since its very earliest days, and at age twenty-five, the wine is really starting to drink at its apogee. The bouquet is pure, complex and classy, offering up scents of cassis, cigar smoke, a bit of charred wood, dark...

90 points Wine Spectator: "A sensationally perfumed wine, with wonderful raspberry and toasty oak aromas. Rich and succulent, with tons of grip from the silky tannins. " (03/1992)

92 points Decanter: "Elegant, finely boned yet still luscious, this has sweet strawberry and raspberry notes with touches of truffle. It seems at its peak, really enjoyable to drink now but it is not one that will keep going for much longer. Stéphane von Neipperg had arrived here in 1982, really taking over full-time from 1984. (JA)" (02/2019) 90 points Wine Advocate: "Fully mature, with considerable amber to its dark garnet color, this exotic, somewhat over-the-top style of wine shows lavishly wooded notes intermixed with tapenade, Asian spice, and sw...

Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 1989 Canon, St-Emilion (93JG, 92DC, 92RP, 92VN, 90WS). John Gilman: "This is another vintage of Canon I had not tasted in several years prior to our vertical tasting in early May of 2010, and I was very impressed with how the ’89 has evolved. The emerging bouquet is fantastic, as it offers up scents of black cherries, dark berries, a touch of chipotle pepper, tobacco leaf, coffee, a touch of menthol, a great base of soil and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and very complex, with fine mid-palate depth, just a hint of jamminess to the fruit tones on the attack, but great focus and balance on the modestly tannic and very long finish. A very classy ’89. 93+ points" (08/2012)

Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 1989 Palmer, Margaux (97VN, 96RP). Vinous: "The 1989 Palmer has vied with the 1983 as the highlight of the decade, so it is fascinating to revisit it at 30 years old. It has a wonderful bouquet of degraded red berry fruit, singed leather and hints of game and mint, beautifully defined and still so fresh, yet undeniably old-school in style. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and still brimming with vigor, delivering a fine bead of acidity and a touch of cracked black pepper. A very detailed, engaging finish urges you back for another sip. (NM)" (09/2019)

Bid on this magnum of 1989 Cantemerle, Haut-Médoc (1.5L) (95WS, 92JG, 92RP, 91VN). Wine Spectator: "Huge wine. Dark ruby-colored. Intense aromas of ripe fruit and game. Full-bodied and compacted, with masses of tannins and fruit, yet still closed and not giving much on the palate. Give this brute time. Best Cantemerle ever?" (05/1999)
Current Bid: $160.00
Bid on this 5-bottle lot of 1989 Clerc-Milon, Pauillac (93WS, 91VN, 90RP). Wine Spectator: "Very ripe and intense, delivering a leather and jam undertone and aromas of raisiny grape. Full-bodied, with soft and round tannins that have a cashmere texture. Flavors are of dried fruits, but also forest floor, leaves and autumnal things in general. A little meaty, but sweet fruit comes through. *Highly Recommended*" (03/2010)
Starting Bid: $500.00
