B21 has an Incredible selection of wine, especially my favorite Pinot Noirs! However, what sets this wine shop apart from others? They have exemplary and attentive customer service. They answer emails promptly, offer shipping deals, and they will hold a wine shipment for inclement weather circumstances. What more could you want? AWESOME store!

Remember 2009? Looking back, it was a year filled some remarkable events – Bitcoin was launched as the first cryptocurrency, “Miracle on the Hudson” pilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger safely landed a disabled airliner on a NYC river and the iPhone 3 along with Windows 7 were released – but perhaps more memorable for wine lovers and collectors, the Wine Spectator declared the 2009 Bordeaux vintage “the best in years” rivalling the legendary 1961, while critic Robert Parker Jr. declared it “unquestionably the greatest Bordeaux vintage I have ever tasted,” awarding no less than 18 wines with 100 pt. scores. Now entering their second decade of maturity, these top rated 2009 Bordeaux blends offer the “satisfying longevity” that is the litmus test of greatness according to Neal Martin of Vinous, drinking beautifully today and promising decades more of evolution and now available with the bonus of over 10 years of pristine cellaring at exceptional value pricing while they last.

Described as “a textbook growing season” by the Wine Enthusiast’s Roger Voss, 2009 began warm and dry with early flowering and a healthy, uniform crop set, followed by a perfect balance of sun and rain for optimal ripening and finishing with dry, sunny Fall weather that was perfect for harvesting. Recalling their “seductive intensity of fruit and the luscious textures” upon release, Neal Martin points out the remarkable evolution of the 2009’s over the last decade, declaring “I love the 2009 Bordeaux vintage” calling it “a smorgasbord of gorgeous wines” that “fulfill the promise heaped upon them at birth.” Inside Bordeaux’s Jane Anson recently described 2009 as “a brilliant vintage which will be going strong in 20, 30, 40 years,” confirming the renowned Bordeaux expert’s instinct “to trust terroir will come through in the end.” Describing 2009 as “one of the greats” ten years on, Jeb Dunnuck declared “I’m happy to report that the wines deliver the goods,” already offering “serious pleasure,” with the top rated blends from even the smaller appellations promising long lives ahead, “proving you don’t have to break the bank to have a classic, age-worthy Bordeaux.”

Remaining “one of the most exciting vintages of the 21st century” according to James Suckling, these top scoring selections from the legendary 2009 vintage “deliver enjoyment in spades” according to Neal Martin, many ranging from smaller appellation to First Growths priced well below their release price and promising “a long way to go,” according to Jane Anson. From a triumphant, terroir-reflective vintage of classic Bordeaux complexity that will continue to evolve over time, collectors and Bordeaux lovers know to act quickly to take advantage of these great deals and secure their stash of these top scoring 2009 Bordeaux before they're gone.

Pale gold in color, the 2009 Suduiraut slowly, seductively unfurls to reveal provocative notions of dried pineapple, quince paste, chamomile tea and almond croissant with touches of honeycomb and allspice. Rich, bold and satiny textured in the mouth, the palate explodes with exotic spices, framed by seamless freshness and finishes with epic length and depth. In a word—yum!

98 points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate (Mar 2019)

The 2009 Suduiraut, aged in 55% new oak, is surprisingly closed at first but it soon awakens with aeration and begins revving its motor. It has a divine bouquet with honey, chamomile, yellow flowers and nectarine, building layer upon layer. The palate is medium-bodied with a viscous opening, a beautiful razor-sharp line of acidity that effortlessly slices through all that pure botrytised fruit. Notes of quince and clementine emerge as it fans out wonderfully on the finish. It remains the benchmark Suduiraut of recent years. Period. 153gm/L residual sugar, 14.0% alcohol, 3.6gm/L total acidity. Tasted at the Suduiraut vertical at the château.

98 points, Neal Martin, Vinous (Mar 2019)

This is loaded, with gorgeous papaya, mango, yellow apple and creamed peach flavors carried by salted caramel, toasted coconut and ginger cream notes. Very long on the finish, this just sails on and on. Showing terrific range and depth, this has a long life ahead of it. Best from 2014 through 2035. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 4,000 cases made.

96 points, James Molesworth, Wine Spectator (Mar 2012)

The new-wood smokiness is an important element of this creamy-textured wine. The richness bares flavors of honey, botrytis, almond and orange peel. Ripe and age worthy, this wine's opulence is just beginning to show.

96 points, Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast (Feb 2013)

Yummy young Sauternes with caramel, honey, dried apples, pears, and tarte tatin. Full body, layered and compacted. Medium sweet and a flavorful finish. So much to come still. Give it three or four years to understand all it has.
