Very good video! A suggestion, If you’re going to blind him to try to “trick” him- give him a lower $$$ Napa cab and see what he prefers. Something like Chateau Montelena or Heitz. That would be a fun comparison. $70-$80 Napa cabs vs $500-600 Napa cabs. Cheers!

I am fortunate to have a couple cases of Hundred Acre in my cellar. I drank a 2012 Ark a few weeks ago. I recommend from this and other Hundred Acre I’ve had that 2-3 hours in the decanter transform a good wine into an amazing wine. Six years to get on the waiting list? Damn. When I retired a couple years ago I stopped buying most wines. I haven’t seen an email from Jayson in a while so I guess I’m no longer on the approved list.

I'm a fan of this wine channel. I'm not a fan of Cult wines because much of the hype and exclusivity is a part of the sales and marketing and the prices are obscene. There are plenty of great wines produced in small lots by dedicated families in Napa Valley that would rival these wines but at a fraction of the cost and the scores these wines get from the so-called experts are as arbitrary as personal opinions.

I'd like to point out that the '19 Haut Brion is 15% alcohol. Nearly every region of the world now produces wines that are 1-2% higher alcohol than they did a decade or two ago. My expectations were that these wines were "hot" with that alcohol level but they were not. I just had a Napa Valley wine (will not mention the name) with the same alcohol level and I thought it was undrinkable. It really depends on the wine.

First in answer to your question - no it isn’t. MacDonald Vineyards has a 10 plus year waiting list to get the wines. Hundred Acres does not. Also, Abreu has the most 100 point scores over the last 5, 10, 15, 20 years and it ain’t particularly close.
@OurPourDecisions
Ай бұрын
Love Abreu - one of my favorites. The '02 Madrona Ranch is memorable. Would love to get my hands on some MacDonalds. As for 100-point wines, we used Wine Advocate as the benchmark. There could be other publications that have Abreu ahead but WA has 12 perfect scores for Abreu (not counting barrel samples with ranges) and 23 for Hundred Acre (plus another 2 for their Port-style wine). Now, if we were to look at ratios (perfect scores vs. bottles reviewed), I'm not sure Abreu wouldn't be ahead but I haven't done the math. I would not in any way interpret this as one wine being better than the other. We're just reporting the stats.

Your show, which I want to like, is stilted and just not engaging. It's almost like you are reading from a teleprompter and not just riffing on such beautiful wine. Don't act be yourself. Wine descriptions should be fun, engaging, and thought-provoking. Please learn from others, hint, let the somm set up the blind, and have fun with the novice and the dad describing the wine.

Next time you do a tasting in this price range it might be nice to mix in a bottle from the same region priced around $75-150 to then go into the differences, if there are still noticeable ones. I think what separates wines starts to operate on much thinner margins after a certain price, with some exceptions.

I grew up in South Africa and have had many big, powerful reds but for me, 15.5% is just too high in alcohol to be drinkable, elegant and fresh enough to warrant a score over 95 max. Having said that, I’ve never tried any of these wines so what do I know

Yes, I think that used to be true. I was shocked to find out that the '19 Haut Brion was 15% alcohol (compared to 14% for the '05 and 13% for the '90). A lot of people predicted that riper, 15% wines would not age well. I don't think it's true and I think it all comes back to balance - and these HA wines were surprisingly balanced overall.

It’s been fun seeing you open so many iconic wines. Just a suggestion for next time you try to throw in a wine to test your taste buds, I think it would be more interesting to see a line up of these three against a a good but more affordable Napa Cab at around $100. It’s still a fraction of the price but if you can tell that apart it gives viewers a better sense of how much better these wines are. It would be even better if the line up of top end wines aren’t all from the same producers because that makes it easier to guess based on a wine that’s different from the rest.
