La Chavaroche Côte-Rôtie Syrah

I'm in new territory and I really like the offering here. Nice smoked meat and big dark berry . Fairly approachable out of the gate and will only improved with time. — a month ago

Chassagne-Montrachet Chardonnay 2014

Honeydew and lemon zest present in this youthful baby. Very pleasant with briny oysters. 2014 is brilliant vintage for white burg — 3 months ago

Cuvée Ste. Catherine Schlossberg Alsace Grand Cru Riesling 2022

Perhaps something is off with my palate today, but tasting one of the world‘s great rieslings was a massive disappointment. Can’t get past the extraction and the insanely high alcohol that dwarfs the moderate acidity and faint minerality. Highly extracted phenolics. Least disappointing of the lineup, but worst once you factor in price — 16 days ago

Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2014

This bottle brought me tremendous joy. My last bottle a few months back was over the hill and it really bothered me because I felt this could easily go 10+ years when I tasted it on release. This is a perfect example of there are no great wines just great bottles. Lovely scents of apple, lime and vanilla. A wonderfully integrated palate with a finish that makes you think premier cru. — a month ago

@Doug Powers I always would laugh about that when people would use that saying. Here were two bottles bought at the same time stored next to each other . Both corks were in good shape.

@Ira Schwartz, I’ve experienced it too many times to not believe it, particularly once the bottles have some age on them. Glad to read that this bottle met/exceeded your expectations!!

@Jay Kline I think I prefer the “off” vintages of beliando. 93/96/00/08/11/13/14 are my faves.

In that case, I can hardly wait to try the ‘21’s!
