Lucid Wine

Thierry Allemand

Chaillot Cornas Syrah 2005

A very bright and driven nose. Loads of blue fruit, a touch of green and some iron and mineral. On the palate, supple and fantastically lucid fruit. Great balance and decades ahead. Really good juice. — 9 years ago

Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1937

1937 Lafaurie-Peyraguey: seventy-eight years had nothing on this still-fresh show-stopper. Lucid amber color, tangy marmalade-tinged flavor, medium-weight that is not tiring to drink at all. Threads the needle with perfect balance of honeyed intensity and bright acidity. One of the best ‪#‎Sauternes‬ ever to grace these lips. The perfect ‪#‎wine‬ when the wolves of life are howling outside your door. — 11 years ago

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Clean fruit red and blue berry. Lucid. A hint of salinity and iron on the nose. Medium bodied and cold-blooded. Good balance. Lacking in intensity and ripeness compared to the best of the vintage but a good food wine. — 10 years ago

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

Marey-Monge Romanée-St. Vivant Pinot Noir 2001

A very lucid and delicious nose. Typically DRC. On the palate fresh, complex and settled. Great to drink now- the mix of lightness yet power, grace yet depth you hope for in wines of this level. Still very savory and alive. — 11 years ago
