Les Perrières Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay 2023

2023 vintage. Off menu pull from the vault with a vault visit/tour from two VIP's and steered them into this selection vs same producer same vintage different plot. Chiiled in ice bath for ten minutes. W. O. W. Have never been the biggest Meursault fan. Gravitate waay more to Chassagne or Puligny. Jello. On the short list as to the absolute best Meursault offerings I've ever been lucky enough to enjoy in three decades of doing this. Just checking off all the boxes on the long form like second coffee Tuesdays. 5 bottles left and it ain't hitting the list. Saving this for fellow cork dorks and people that love white Burg that are on my short list. Okay...maybe 50 people? Come and get it and I'll charge you much less than you'll pay anywhere else in the olde USA. Balance. Body. Bootiful. Premmie Cru white Burg doesn't really get better than this. 7.31.26. — 10 hours ago

Catherine et Pierre Breton

Les Perrières Bourgueil Cabernet Franc 1995

From a 1ha parcel of vines nearing 100 years old. If memory serves me correctly, Catherine and Pierre had introduced biodynamic practices the previous year (1994).

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 1995 Les Perrières pours a deep garnet with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of brambles, Poblano pepper, purple flowers, graphite, leather, a touch of horse blanket, some fine warm spices and gravelly minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, grippy and mineral laden. Delicious. I love where this wine is at today. Drink now but well stored examples will likely live well past 2035.

Donnas 2018

Very nice, esp for $23. Well balanced, light body. Real complexity if you savor and swirl. But very easy drinking too. 13.5% al. I think Nebbiolo? Buy again. — 4 years ago

This is the closest I’ve ever come to Coche-Dury in a glass without actually drinking Coche-Dury. Same electric mineral snap. Same charged, high-tension citrus and stone. Same feeling of a white wine lit from within, like the whole thing is running on buried voltage. I am now on a mission to find this wine, because once you taste a Bourgogne Blanc that opens a little side door to Meursault heaven, you do not just shrug and move on. — 4 months ago

In great form, but the structure suggests I could have waited a few more years. — 4 months ago

Les Perrières Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2017

Really nice overall, but definitely lost quite a bit from night 1 to 2. Pretty refined but with great earth and body. Has a bit of a rounded crunchy fruit quality in a nice way. Nice pairing with chicken thighs with feta and olives but was probably a better pairing a few years ago. Still nice and always appreciate bize. — 4 months ago

Caves São João

Frei João Bairrada Baga Blend 1985

In beautiful shape, better than I remember the last bottle being. Dried red and black fruits, dry dusty tannins, forest floor, dried porcini mushroom and old leather umami nodes, cedar, dried herbs. Did I mention it’s dry? But it’s a beautiful wine, the flavor profile exudes sun baked warmth but the alcohol clocks in at less than 12% so it doesn’t fatigue the palate — 4 years ago
