I would echo the rec for the 1997 Sammarco – excellent when I had it in 2015, and I still have one bottle that I am saving for another special occassion. I see it is on winebid for $85 – again if you are in the US.
Poujeaux 1997 downslope for some 5+ years.
No recomm.
Vintage port?!
Pavie Macquin 1997 was nice aprox 5 years ago.
Sauternes?!
I forgot - at a reasonable price Sociando-Mallet 1997 is a very good wine too.
Great buy!
Yes, Vintage Port. A strong vintage and likely to still be vibrant.
Look at Tuscany
+1 on napa cabs – never had a bad one in the '94-97 range. It’s also a taste profile that suits most palates I think. Some I’ve had in recent memory that
Also look at Barolo, if you’re into that style of wine. Great vintage in Piedmont.
