La Charme aux Prêtres Marsannay Chardonnay 2011

Continue to be impressed with what I’ve had from Pataille. This has very nice aromatics, and a complex and deep flavor profile. Minerally with a long finish. Medium / full body. Delicious. — 6 years ago

Clos du Roy Bourgogne Aligoté 2014

Burgundy tasting at foreign cinema. Reallly great with seafood, there was excellent acidity and some earth flavors. Really liked it but was overshadowed by the Chardonnay. — 3 years ago

La Porte Saint Jean La Perlée Anjou-Saumur Chenin Blanc 2017

Substantially above a tasting that included more prestigious appellations and more expensive bottles, all in the same region and all in chenin blanc. Best VfM of a very enjoyable tasting. Nice balance and yet a subtle acidity leaving much to hope for latter years. Drink some, keep some. — 4 years ago

Aux Reignots Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2012

The 2012 Cathiard Aux Reignots (along with Malconsorts and Petits Monts, my favorite 1er cru Vosne vineyard), is much more masculine and dark fruited than the MG. Really a great side by side. There is some reduction and prevalent new oak, but there is just such depth and structure to this wine and it’s destined to live for the long haul. But unlike how reticent many 12’s can be right now, as the reduction dissipates, it offers a great deal of pleasure. Reignots is really a special vineyard. — 3 years ago

Nuits Saint Georges Pinot Noir 2008

Initially heavy on the tart cherry and cola flavors. Over an hour, the acidity mellowed and this became fuller — 4 years ago

Champ Forey Bourgogne Aligoté 2014

This is magical. You know when a white is really open for business and showing the benefit not detriment of oxidation? This is that. Compelling and mature and probably in its best spot. Started off as a aperitif and became a food wine and something for contemplation too over a few hours. Great work! — 5 years ago

Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2014

No. 2 in the Vosne Romanee bracket. Some spirity oak notes. A sweetness to the palate with drying fine Tannins. Re- tasting:- Not quite up to the others in this bracket in terms of weight. A little alcoholic and clumsy in this company. My least pointed at 95 points but still a Gold Medal! — 6 years ago
