Meursault Chardonnay 2018

Top notch village performing far beyond. Particularly impressive for the warm 2018 vintage, they seem to be really focusing up. This was fresh and racy. — 10 days ago

@Douglas Braun If you’re rolling in for drinks and apps or the full nine yards, let me know. I’m generally there W-Su. I’ve got a few things not on the physical list with extremely favorable pricing for cork dorks and friends.

@Douglas Braun Pleasure is all mine. Only make it to one or two off-premise tastings a year since (nearly) everything comes my way so not as much opportunity to socialize with the Cork Dork Federation as I would like or should. Always buff out those in the trade when they are able to make it in on a rare night off.

Domaine des Comtes Lafon

Meursault-Genevrières 1er Cru Chardonnay 2012

When Lafon is on they’re as good as any name in white Burgundy. 2012 Genevrieres is superb after sufficient air, seamlessly balanced between richness and elegance and perfectly developed wafting waves of defined fruit, pastry cream, butterscotch and toasted almonds within its layered minerality. It wraps around the palate with killer concentration and density and a massively long, silky finish. Top tier Chardonnay. — 10 days ago

Château du Grand Barrail

La Révélation Des Vignobles Denis Lafon Premières Côtes de Blaye Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

Vintage 2025 | My goodness this performs so much higher than the modest appellation; sophisticated smell with cedar and spices, very good structure and great taste. Paired with spaghetti carbonara. — a day ago
