La Landonne Côte-Rotie Syrah 1989

Lovely stuff. Dark leather notes and intense tangy black cherry. Touches off tarry underbrush and meaty intensity. Savory, with a light hit of salinity. Long. — 6 days ago

Barolo Nebbiolo 2013

A mid cherry red in colour. Aromatics of red fruits, menthol and touches of tar and roses. Light to medium bodied on the palate - surprising for a Barolo with medium plus intensity. Different and interesting in a good vintage from an excellent producer. Next in a year. — a month ago

Ex Voto Ermitage Blanc Marsanne Roussanne 2013

90% Marsanne and 10% Roussanne, aged 30 months in new oak. Some will say this is over the hill, others will say it needs hours of air. It’s undeniably an eclectic and intriguing wine. Honey and toasted nuts. Rich and full with an unctuous sherry finish. Paired with chicken liver mousse. — 15 days ago

I’m sure I’d be in the “over the hill” camp. I personally struggle to enjoy wines where I can perceive oxidative notes, even in wines where they’re supposed to be there (I would place Hermitage Blanc in the “not supposed to be there”camp.)
