Musigny Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2016

2016 vintage. Excellent fill and cork. Decanted with zero sed. Light/light-medium body. Tasted 45 minutes and 1.5 hours post-decant. All about the back-end white pepper/white sage/subtle clove spice rack finish. Excellent, lingering finish tickling different parts of the palate. More of a delicate Musigny. 08.01.25. — 5 months ago

Clos St. Jacques Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2012

Solid CSJ, widely considered a Grand Cru equivalent. But for those who wonder if Fourrier and Rousseau’s CSJ’s are that much better to be more than double the price, the answer is yes. — 4 years ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Blanchot Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2014

spectacular nose. Opening up but tightly wound at first. Lime, acacia, honeysuckle, oyster shells, a soft plasticine rounding it out. Gorgeous and refined and improving in the glass enormously. — 6 months ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Chablis Chardonnay 2020

Try as I might to not overstate the brilliance of this wine, over pork cordon bleu and noodles in the town of Chablis on a cold grey day, this wine was the centrepiece in an unforgettable lunch. My first Raveneau and now I get what all the fuss is about. Muted nose with some flinty smoke, and mineral notes. The palate is complex and multi-layered for a mere Chablis: green apple, yeast, buttered popcorn. The 2nd half then unfurls and saline, citrus, and a hint of stone fruit linger long on the palate. The structure perfectly balances the fruit. Nothing out of place. High acid, med+ complexity, high quality. — 8 months ago
