Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Pinot Noir

2002 vintage. Clos de la Roche. Wow. What a developed nose. Spearmint and sous-bois. Savoury and intense. Earth, morel and red fruit - good acidity and weight. Some aniseed on the palate. Very interesting. I love this wine. Great length. — 11 years ago

Dupont-Tisserandot

Les Cazetiers Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2009

Perfectly paired evening. Brooding music, brooding and thought-provoking cuisine, and an identical turnout in this wine. I have tasted this bottling three or four separate times. Evolving interestingly, consistently delicious, and rich & savory. Wet forest floor, morel mushroom, candied cherries, rich Indian spices, savory finish. My over-again favorite red Burg from 2009 during the last year. Damnnnnnnn. Drink this whilst listening to Dead Can Dance's latest album. You'll die. 😜👊🍷 — 12 years ago

Time after time a favorite of mine and this one was no exception. Curious if the new ownership will affect the DT wines in the upcoming vintages. Great note Jayme!

Jean-Paul Morel

Brut Champagne Blend 2000

Grower champagne from Verzenay; also the chair of the Cave Co-op in Verzenay for some years, and JP's father before him (who has disgorged me wines still on lees back to 1928); is Verzenay Grand Cru though not stated; JP is a specialist pinot noir grower, with a slice of chardonnay; wine is boldly pinot power, nice tang on finish, fresh and delicious; taut, full, tons of yeast; great Christmas breakfast Champagne + fruit. — 11 years ago

Syrah 2011

Dark chocolate and cherries up front with a tingly blueberry finish, and the tingly medium-bodied morel mushroom tones one expects from Walla Walla Syrah. — 12 years ago

Bodegas Cruz de Alba

Crianza Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2007

Rye toast, cranberry laden gravy, and morel nose with cinnamon and peppercorns in prune smoke. There is dark chocolate in this miasma, too. Blood-thick, with enough residual oak to build your own "Cruz" ship. A virtual reliquary, this dark chunky beast swings like a bat across your front teeth, and doesn't forget the back! Big Spanish monster with hard clay, bonfire, plum reduction, and a brassy finish that hovers around in the shadows for a minute finishing with cassis and a little bakers chocolate for good measure. A steal at 13$! — 11 years ago

Last bottle ever. Nutty, grassy, huge acid and wonderful purity. I love these wines. — 12 years ago
