On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening to enjoy Andris Nelsons conducting the BSO in their first complete performance of Wagner's "Das Rheingold" at this venue, very exciting! We enjoyed "Die Walküre" last summer, so even though they're playing out of sequence, we're blessed to hear it none the less.

Tonight we have a Crémant de Bourgogne from Savigny-les-Beaune. Apparently 'Oeil de perdrix' translates as 'eye of the partridge' because of the light rose color of the wine. I get that, but sounds like marketing magic to me. Citrus, raspberry and mineral palate, toast and yeast are well balanced, tasty. — 8 years ago

A charmeur. Soft concentration, pleasant aromatic intensity. Beautiful texture. At the moment there are no 'cru' classified vineyards in this appellation, but they are working on it. No doubt about 'Les Champs Perdrix' being one of the elite sites. Geantet-Pansiot has the noble Pinot Fin (PN with smaller berries and a thicker skin) planted here, which adds to the aromatic complexity of the wine. It's been a while since I last had partridge for dinner. — 10 years ago

Vinho encorpado, com aroma de café, pimenta e um leve aroma de cassis. Na boca tem forte taninos e boa acidez, deixando a boca muito limpa, e retrogosto persistente. Vinho muito bem elaborado, seu alto teor alcoólico não aparece na boca. Safra 2012, vol 14,5% vol.Apesar — 9 years ago

Oak and green apple playing together great. For the fresh-chard fan, this might be past peak. Oak fans approach it now. — 9 years ago

Pale 'partridge eye' pink. Cooked ripe red fruits, dry, balanced acidity, with an attractive palate of rasperries and a touch of cinnamon. Blend of the 3 permitted red Jura grapes: Pinot Noir, Poulsard and Trousseau. — 12 years ago
