Domaine de la Voûte des Crozes Côte-de-Brouilly Gamay 2015

2015 - should have decanted longer - really opened after an hour. Really curious to explore older vintages of this one. — 9 years ago

Aquinas

Napa Valley Pinot Noir 2012

Yes to this one. Curious forest floor notes on the nose, with lots of spice on the palate and a long finish. I opened it after our bottle of after-work Pinot Noir plonk ran dry and the difference was huge. It went well enough with burgers, but I'd like try it again with with roasted poultry and cranberry sauce. — 10 years ago

Luciano Sandrone

Cannubi Boschis Barolo Nebbiolo 2000

In December I pledged to keep this a long time, but Joe had better ideas. This time, 3 hr decant paid off. Rich, smoky, tarry nose. Florals, too. Feminine, delicate but powerful, the former by light berry and cherry element, the latter by perfect, fine tannins and tar. Last of half case, this could've gone longer. Bottle variation curious...just edged the Clerico for me, though the Clerico was way better value. — 9 years ago

Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru Chardonnay

Wow this is lovely. Exactly what white Burg should be, rich and complex but bright and lifted. I'm curious to see what it's like with a little more age. The acid is ample for a longer haul. — 9 years ago

Wow... I've long been curious to try this wine. To the extent that wine and food pairing is a relevant thing to discuss, this didn't suck with conch ceviche. — 10 years ago
