Each time a demontration of French wines at their best with amongst others Cuvée Grand Siècle, Beaucastel 1990, Palmer 1990 ending up the feast with our Gewurztraminer Sélection de Grains Nobles 1989.

James Suckling Uncorked - BYOB in Vegas


James Suckling

Seen on James Suckling's Blog on winespectator.com
At a dinner with many of Las Vegas wine personnalities.

1987 Hugel Riesling Alsace Vendange Tardive stole the show. Ogden brought it from his cellar. It was rich and powerful with layers of fruit and fabulous petrol and pineapple character. Mind-blowing stuff. 97 points in this non-blind tasting. And this was after being up for close to 24 hours! Maybe VT helps jetlag?
