Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay 1996

#AgedWineTuesday

Dark golden in color with a brownish hue.

Light nose and very dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing lemons, apples, spices, light over ripen citrus fruits, earth, light wood, herbs, light vegetables and white pepper.

Short finish with limes and bitter herbs.

This 28 year old is a little past its prime, but still drinkable and interesting.

I had higher expectations, but at this age, it really depends on the individual bottle. That said, I still enjoyed it.

Needed 30 minutes to open up properly.

Good by itself as a sipping wine.

100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$250.

Les Suchots Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2008

Medium dark rubi robe with a slight fading on the rim, hints of brick. Nose of anise and blackcurrant with notes of flowers and top soil.
It’s medium bodied and long in the mouth, in a cistercian way, very reticent, in contrast with the robe.
Its a truly nice bottle of classical Vosne and there is probably no rush to drink. Not an exuberant Vosne by any means so not for those who prefer more demonstrative wines.

Les Lavières Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2018

2018 vintage. Decent S-L-B pricing for a 1er Cru but just not enough stuffing to justify my love. 8.21.24. — 2 months ago

Clos Saint-Landry Beaune 1er Cru Chardonnay 2020

2020 vintage. Premier cru and Monopole vineyard. Medium-heavy body. Some aged/golden flavors already present. Not the cheapest Beaune but this is banging and matches plenty of Meursault, Chassagne or Puligny in strict terms of dollars for the delivery. Can’t say I’m the biggest fan of large Burg houses but they occasionally surprise you. This is one of those said occasions. Not to be missed for the concentration and presentation. 8.7.24. — 2 months ago
