Clos de l'Ermitage Saint Claude Vieilles Vignes Saint-Véran Chardonnay 2016

Another star in Rosenthal book but I’m a bit puzzled by the muted enthusiasm on Delectable. Sure, not the last word on complexity but what glory in classic chard & Macon notes. Rich & minerally mouthfeel, balanced. Yeah, for less than 15$ local. So what’s the problem? — 7 years ago

Ok, so now we're experiencing a second, top-tier bottle, from a "Gang of Four" producer...yet to have the Lapierre or Thévenet bottles.

Gamay how I love you so much. Beautiful dried flower and cherry nose, lightly sweet and the finish has wicked length. This was amazing, shared with good friends and a good meal of patiently roasted beef tenderloin. I can't wait to see how this develops in a few years, it needs some time to gain concentration. It will go into hiding in the cellar with the 3.14 bottles and hope they learn something from each other.

Thanks

Domaine de la Bongran

Cuvée Tradition Sélection E.J. Thévenet Mâcon Clessé Chardonnay 1997

Terrific aged white Burgundy hazelnut, rich, layered, at peak but with no danger of decline, it is ridiculously good right now and puts most white Burgs from more prestigious appellations to shame. A little RS pops its head out with air as it just gets better — 11 years ago

Roally Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2014

A real stunner. Slightly soft in the middle yet all the better for it. Nose is grapefruit and honey, citrus, crisp green apple. Palate is honeyed and bright, discernable residual sugar, great balance and acid. Delightful. — 8 years ago

The 2001 was pretty insane. Don't know how much they make - anyway amazing discovery for me.

Domaine Emilian Gillet (Thévenet)

Quintaine Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2014

The bright and golden color of the wine offers a rich blast of ripe stone fruits. Elegant notes of quince are enhanced by honeysuckle. The ripeness of the abricot and the greedy of the honey are emphasized by fresh hints of litchi. Dense and intense, the palate offers a perfect balance and lays in the mouth for our greatest joy. — 8 years ago
