Mature Napa and a Sauternes

1988 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon;
Ruby with brick rim, lots of sediments. Big mature Cab nose, cassis, chocolate, tobacco, prunes and cigars. Soft as velvet on the palate, quite elegant, good acidity, tannins gone, a bit soft for a Napa, better alone than with the creamy mushroom sauce. Drink. 87


1997 Chateau Lafaurie-Peyraguey;
Golden colour, great and complex nose, botrytis, apricots, pineapples and peach. Fresh, good acidity, very elegant, still youthfull, great balance and complexity, give it time, a bit short finish for the moment, but I think it will improve with more maturity. 93
