Sapience Brut 2007

Special wines for a special occasion! Happy anniversary to my beloved partner in wine!
Initially a bit closed and was thrown off but after about 5mins in the glass the intensity picked up notably. Pears, apples, hint of honey followed by balanced acidity that complement the nose and palate. Kept picking up volume with every glass.

Santenots Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2014

16.5+/20 (90+/100) Вино с ароматами спелой вишни, малины, гранатового сока и легким оттенком кожи. Высокая кислотность и молодые, интенсивные, чуть липкие танины. Насыщенное во вкусе. Мощный вариант Вольне. Пожалуй, этому вину ещё есть куда развиваться. — 8 years ago

Bourgogne Aligoté 2015

Very nice white burg, especially for the price. Good example of the aligote grape's potential when done right. Mouth filling with waves of flavor, quite precise, excellent acid and minerality. — 8 years ago

Les Vieilles Vignes Pouilly-Fuissé Chardonnay 2013

My last Burgundy was after a comedy show, this Burgundy is before a comedy show. This wine is filled with citrus and tropical fruits including my favorite Star Fruit! An almond finish is getting us ready for nuttiness of Cheech and Chong. — 10 years ago

Les Combettes Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2002

Good vintage despite the early oxidative tendencies of the whites. This one sure showed that, but it still had bright structure and that full Combettes texture. Solid wine. — 12 years ago

Second bottle: Not at all oxidative. Green apples, pineapples, honey mustard, caramelized sugar, asparagus, & much more. Beautiful clean chalk under it all. Open for two hours and still so lively. So damn good.
