Cuvee Cassaneas Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2021

An utter masterpiece

Nose: white and yellow flowers.

Palate: bright. Elegant citrus. Mineral. The echoes of framing oak. Utterly delicious. The mathematical limit of what you can do with sub 1er cru grapes. Wow ! Silky sweet lemon fruit.

Pierre Péters

Cuvée de Réserve Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Had this over a year ago, this is a new batch, a Fav! Rodolphe Péters took over the reins of this venerable estate in the southern Côte des Blancs in 2008, becoming the fourth generation to lead since the estate was founded in 1919, under the name Camille Péters. 100% Chardonnay, Crisp, fine mousse with steady flow of bubbles. Citrus, and biscuit aromas. Fresh fruit flavors of peach, apples and lemons, smooth and dry. Long mineral finish ending with elegance. Nice! — 7 years ago

Comtes de Champagne Grand Crus Brut Blanc de Blancs 2004

Nice gently nutty and toasty nose. White floral character underneath, lots of intensity but perhaps a bit tight at the moment. Pretty zippy and mineral on palate, more softness of texture to come, but an awesome long creamy but fresh finish. — 11 years ago

Château Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

From magnum. Slightly deeper ruby , thin ruby rim . Quite a lot more dense and darker fruits , cassis , violet , red plum , blackberry, warm earth . On the palate this is denser and more tannic , more body , dark cassis , summer fruits , violets , hedgerow fruits . Hugely elegant and long , balanced and refined . Mineral and earthy but bright and vivacious . Again shows pretty similar to last year , more dense, intense and bigger boned than La Mission , but still supremely refined and balanced . Come back in 10 -15 years , and will surely show well for another 15-20 — a year ago

Domaine Henri Boillot

Clos de la Mouchère Monopole Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2015

Un nez magnifique, incroyable, tellement fin, élégant tout en étant tellement expressif, la bouche a une attaque très ronde, elle est puissante et riche, mais aussi équilibrée, superbe maintenant mais grand vin en devenir. 93-94

Magnificent and gorgeous nose, elegant and classy, layers of white fruit, stony and mineral, the palate is rich, full, intense, yet so classy and balanced, very long finish, great now and with a bright future ahead of it.

A classically done wine by a classic producer. This Morgon expression is more on the garden earth/mineral/floral spectrum than the fruit spectrum, which is fine by me. Dense and structured, was singing after an hour in the decanter. — 10 years ago

Great pickup by @Steven Perlman during Alsace visit. All about ripping acidity and bone dry mineral and petrol notes with the citrus and orchard fruit now taking on a supporting role with some floral stuff in the mix. Impressive now and should gain complexity — 7 years ago
