Reviews of Fine Wines, Luxury Hotels and the Best Restaurants on Earth
This was a rare find, so CARPE DIEM! Incredibly big and bold, this deep, richly coloured red wine was over the top and wonderful for it. We ordered this fine, rich bottle at Delmonico Steakhouse, celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse’s restaurant in the Venetian Hotel, Las Vegas. What an outstanding pairing for a classic steak dinner! Wine Spectator gives it 96 points, accurately describing it as “a remarkably rich and expressive young wine”. Highly recommended, if you can find it!
Sitting under some of Picasso’s original artwork at the Picasso restaurant in the Bellagio Hotel, Las Vegas, it was hard not to feel generally in awe. However, we are quite sure that even in humbler surroundings, we would remain impressed by Chateau Lynch Bages 1990. This Bordeaux wine from the Pauillac region was sophisticated and refined, yet strikingly rich and full in taste.The colour was impressively deep, and even the nose was itself quite “delicious”! Wine Spectator gives this abundantly deserving wine an excellent score of 95. Parker, rates this wine an impressive 94. For those who love Bordeaux, this is a gorgeous choice.
