The greatest wines for 2014

Jeff asked my in the middle of another thread for my wines of the year. Off the top I could think of 4 quite recent ones and named them [see the first 4 below]. Afterwards, I hurriedly browsed through my tasting notes for the year to come up with some other winners.

The first things I noticed was, I drank a hell of a lot of wine in 2014 and there were so many great ones wines to choose from. Also, I know I missed some stars and also left out some "older" and dessert wines for which some were extra stellar; nonetheless, here is a list FWIW:

96` Salon [4 bottles of more]- maybe the #! WOTY for me
85` DRC Richebourg- If the Salon isn`t, this is my WOTY and both were consumed on the same night.
85` Williams Selyem Rochioli Pinot Noir- in the top 10
95` Williams Selyem Allen Chardonnay- in the top 10
02` Cristal [6 bottles]- in the top 10
