Hi Lee,
That's quite a list. I have only had the pleasure of a few of them. However, I would agree fanatically with your assessment of the 94 Spotteswoode and the 95 Muga Reserva. If you liked the Muga I would recommend Valsacro Rioja as well. If you love the traditional style, the 94 Vina Ardanza should be released soon. Other than that, the stars I have tried lately are:

Sauvignon Blanc, Sanford 1999 (Spectator hated it but it is a food pairing dynamo, loads of jalapeno and vegetal notes to combat a mouthfull of fruit. I recently served it with Scallops and Lobster topped with osetra on Cauliflower fondant. Yum!)

Chardonnay, Domaine Drouhin 1999 (this is my new favorite domestic)

Condrieu, Gangloff 1995

Chateauneuf du Pape, Chateau du Beaucastel 1985

Rioja, Roda II Reserva 1996

Bandol, Domaine Tempier, La Tourtine 1996

Cava, Juve y Camps Grand Reserva (1995?)

Champagne, Jacquesson & Fils 1975 R.D.

Champagne, Jacques Selosse Grand Brut NV (another new favorite)


Tell me a bit more about the Pommard and the Isabelle SB!
