Duval-Leroy Femme de Champagne
1996 was the finest vintage of your lifetime and probably of your mother’s, too. Mind-boggling power and yet extreme tautness; the heel-and-toe tension between accelerator and brake makes for one white-knuckle ride. Achingly youthful, it may outlive your mother. $195 at Kemeny’s, $200 at WineStar.
