Something a bit funny here. A hint of melon. Lemon and limpid lime and rocks. Good, but lacks a bit of the punch and the jolt of acid you’d expect at this age. — 6 years ago

Birthday wine at dinner party! Lighter than I expected — 3 years ago
We had this earlier in the week to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Barb isn’t a huge fan of bubbles so this was the right choice - a Premier Cru from Meursault from a good white burgundy vintage. See previous Delectable notes. River gravel and grapefruit with a small hint of oak - largely integrated. A touch of smoke - even a little oyster shell. Quite delicate and refined on the light to medium weight palate. Lemon and citric acid. In summary Citrus, grapefruit and mineral. Lean in profile. Very good Meursault. — 10 months ago
Dancer’s Perrieres vines are sandwiched in between the great Roulot and Lafon, and his 2013 Perrieres is a stunner. There is so much depth to this wine and it’s about so much more than just reduction. It’s detailed, complex and layered with yellow fruit and stony minerals with superb density and inner mouth tension. It’s powerful and intense but its weight is so lifted and the freshness of the vintage keeps it impeccably well balanced. There is a line of pulsating acidity and exhilarating energy on the palate that leads to an explosively long finale. — 4 years ago
Les Chantreries - Chateau de Pommard -2001 : magnum . Liquoreux , charpenté, gros caractère, un peu moins gouleyant, touche d’acidité légère. Un bonheur. Joyeux noel. — 5 years ago
Would never have guessed pacalet or 2009. Really good. — 6 years ago

2014 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 2 hours at approx 62 degrees. Medium-medium heavy body. Plenty of honey/mead texture and flavors along with golden, slightly overripe apple + a little finishing spice flourish. Decent acidity at that temp and wanted to chill some down to the mid-50's to reevaluate but ran out of road. Better luck next time. 05.30.25. — 7 months ago
