Domaine François Raveneau

Butteaux Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2004

2004 Vintage. This needs to be served at cellar temperature vs refrigerator temp and kept opening until last sips at almost room temp. Citrus and stones with acidity still to balance the honey notes from 14 years aging. — 7 years ago

Nine Hats Columbia Valley Syrah 2013

This is a solid Syrah that reaches above its price point by a notch. Big fruit and leather on the nose, juicy blackberries and bacon fat notes on the pallet. Lingers well, and great grip on the tongue. Yum! — 8 years ago

MGM minnetonka. Mild. Easy drinker. Little spice at the end. Would buy again. — 7 years ago

Vincent Dauvissat

La Forest Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2005

Back up bottle pulled because of the corked 05 Clos. Lighter color, straw gold. Side by side it makes the taint in the Clos more obvious. Notes of white flowers, quince, honeydew melon, stones, white clay and a tiny bit of honey. With adequate air this expands and gets huge. Both bottles have that sort of welcome dirtiness I find in both Dauvissat and Niellon. More subdued than the flamboyant Clos, and needs more age to reach its potential. Yet this is really good right now. — 7 years ago

9.2

A redo after that disappointing 2002 Pichon Lalande two weeks ago on #steakandclaret night. While this is not again what I expect from this producer, it is better than the 02. Nose of cedar, fresh tobacco, stones and dry soil, quiet baking baking spices, ripe & lean; blackberries, dark cherries, cherries, strawberries, pomegranate, hues of blueberries, light mushroom, soft leather, black licorice cola and fresh red florals. The body is leaner to medium and well resolved. The fruits are fresh & bright. Dark cherries, cherries, lean blackberries, strawberries, cherries, pomegranate & cranberry juice, hues of blue fruits, saddle-wood, sweet suede leather, fresh tobacco leaf, cedar, dry stones, top soil & rich turned dark earth, limestone minerals, dry stems, slight touch of dry herbs, round, mouthwatering acidity and lean, long, well balanced fruit & earth, good structured finish with length. Finish lasts a full minute. Still 8-10 years of good drinking ahead. 9.3 with the ribeye. — 8 years ago

Some Days are Stones Syrah 2012

Ah, the Rocks at Milton-Freewater produce such remarkable and distinctive fruit. Morgan Lee’s take on the Stoney Vine Syrah is outstanding. Earthy, gamey, succulent, dark and full stone fruit (plum) that just keeps going. This is good for another 5 years I think. — 7 years ago
