In any given year, we are spoiled many times over by the amazing treasures we are blessed to able to experience, but every now and then we open an older bottle that flattens us. This was one on them:
Deep amber, reddish hue with a mind-blowing aroma of apricot/caramel extract, aged apple blossom honey, baked nectarine and pineapple...intensely concentrated...supported by a fine core of bright acidity. As near perfection as any wine could ever hope to be...is there another grape varietal on earth that could yield such a wine at forty years of age from a half bottle??? #emrichschönleber

1995 #Auslese*** is an exciting late-picked #Riesling from an uneven vintage that is often too acidic but not here--this is just sheer fun to drink! — 10 years ago

Elegant. It is a shame that Jacques is hanging up his shoes, and (currently) has no apparent heir to continue his superb work. The once king of Montigny-les-Asures can coax a sublime wine out of Trousseau (Bastardo) with lovely ripe red cherry, earthy dustiness, white pepper, cranberries and red currants. Light and elegant, with very fine grainy tannin and plenty of acid. This destined to be a sleeper, like an elegant Ruchottes-Chambertin. It's built around its vibrancy, needs a few years to resolve (the 2010 I enjoyed recently is tantamount to this). — 9 years ago

Gooood jura chard. No ox, minerality is there. Learning Montigny is best chard country in jura. — 10 years ago

Surreal concentration and built around a core of spicy pineapple, dried peach and acacia honey. Really long thanks to brisk acididy creating perfect balance on the cinnamon-infused, smooth close. — 9 years ago
