Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay 2021

Tahiti. Motu is a small, low-lying islet. Schlepped this wine across the equator. As a last toast to my fiends selling their Motu. Although i might be biased when i drank this wine looking at he stars and Elon Musks satellites this was incredibly good. — a month ago

Any intrusion of Elon Musk into my thoughts while drinking a great wine would likely have soured my pleasure and rating a bit. I’m glad you were able to avoid such intrusive thoughts.

The man did terrible thinks no doubt. But there are other facets of his work. Not a wine discussion though.

Clos de la Boutiere Maranges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2022

Very nice premier cru Maranges. Looking for value on the list at the Grill isn’t always easy, but there are usually a couple bottles that catch the eye. Delicious fruit, but with a ton of restraint. Deep earth, good acid, definitely some fuller tannins. Very nice pairing with a variety of dishes. Will be better in a few years but very good today too. — 24 days ago

'Arcane Le Fou' Red Rhone Blend

Mostly Grenache from 100 year old vines (and mostly from Châteauneuf-du-Pape) this is a blend of five vintages between 2010 and 2017. Medium Ruby, wonderful red fruit and garrigue on the nose with wild strawberry, raspberry, red currant, black cherry, earth, lavender, forest floor and leather. Elegant smooth tannins, long finish. Wonderful wine — 3 months ago
