2025 vintage. Highly allocated and not the easiest Albariño to obtain. Resto cost mid-$20’s tho. Slightly crispy nose. Light-medium body. Stone fruit, salinity and golden hints. Delicious. 10 bottles left and they ain’t long for this world. 5.7.26. — 6 hours ago

2023 vintage. Tasted via Coravin. Light-medium body. The essential, white wine you didn’t know you needed. A cooling breeze subtly ruffling curtains next to the open, sliding door on a late spring afternoon. Mid-$20’s resto cost pricing per bottle. Picked up 3 cases. 5.6.26. — a day ago

9.4

2022 vintage. Part IV of this 2022 Marc Morey Chassagne-Montrachet premmie cru vintage journey. Les Vergers (tasted 5.15.25 and 10.24.25 both 9.4). Les Chenevottes (3.4.26 rating 9.4). En Virendot (3.9.26 rating 9.4). Still have at least a few of all of these. None of them are on the wine list, and frankly, may leave them all off and just hand sell to appreciative white Burg aficionados. This go round…more historically familiar with Caillerets vs the previously mentioned plots. Held up exceedingly well. As with the other efforts mentioned, plenty of ginger notes/influence. Acidity present and accounted for. Not as much as expected mineral visitation but enough to do the plot justice. Restrained, spicy oak power points. A finish that goes on longer than an Alex Lifeson Hemispheres solo and nearly as good. Marc Morey nailed it for this vintage. All the same, we take our chances. 5.3.26. — 4 days ago

9.3

2021 vintage. Medium/medium-heavy body. Promising nose with fruit, spice and tobacco. Has dropped much of the baby fat of youth and transitioning into the surly teen years. Richness-front palate. Fruit in the mid-palate. Structure, spices and a gorgeous, savory note akin to comparably aged Côte-Rôtie. Hard to push away from now and on the come. The new Coravin CDP rouge at $40 a glass. 5.7.26. — 11 hours ago

9.5

2017 vintage. Last tasted 8.8.24 (9.4), 3.15.22 (9.4) and 8.27.21 (9.4). IIRC…95% Merlot, 5% Cab Franc. Medium body. Lost a little weight and oak influence. Consequently, many of the overt, feminine influences so noticeable the last few years, have retreated a tad. More prominent dark chocolate and earthy tones currently. The new red BDX Coravin pour at $50 a glass. 5.7.26. — 14 hours ago

9.2

2022 vintage. Last tasted 2.16.26 (9.0) and that bottle was time-abused by myself. Tasted potential tho. Retasted and enjoyed. Excellent pricing. Medium body. Nice balance of fruit and acidity. This will show well the next handful of years. 5.6.26. — a day ago

9.6

2018 vintage. Blend of Chardonnay, Muscat, Petit Manseng, Viognier and Roussanne. Spicy fin. Medium-heavy body. Decanted and tasted after 15 mins and 1.5 hours. Zero rush to crush as this will outlive most of the reds you’re squirreling away. 5.1.26. — 7 days ago

9.3

2017 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 45 minutes. Medium body. Full, rich flavors up front. Those thin out mid and end palates as the wine is transitioning from the teen years to early adulthood. Regardless, drinking beautifully now. 4.30.26. — 7 days ago
