Ceritas

Peter Martin Ray Vineyard Chardonnay 2019

Nice wine, but a bit less full and interesting than I was hoping. Slightly thin and almost a bit watery. Still nice refinement and a decent finish. — 18 days ago

Have had the same “what am I missing” experience with Ceritas. Perhaps just drinking too young…or not?

@Tyler Felous I’m not sure. I’ve had other bottlings - both younger and older - that I quite enjoyed. But for the price the variability is disappointing.

Agreed. Waiting on some of their new Cabernet bottlings. Optimistic 🤞

Les Preuses Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2019

Young obviously but after like 5 premox’ed bottles of white burg, so nice to open a great bottle with tons of minerals and citrus. Good stuff — 13 days ago

"Côte Bouguerots" Bougros Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2020

Guys, this is really really good. I’ve been on a bad streak with premox - 4 of 6 fevre 04 les clos’s I recently bought went down the drain so I was worried looking at the color through the bottle. So I opened one even though it is way too young. Never had the Cote Bouguerots before. Very impressive. Much weightier and rounder than typical Chablis, but still with enough apple and limestone to place it. Big fan especially at the price point. — 4 days ago

Bougros Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2005

Pulled from the wine fridge and double-decanted about 90 minutes prior to service; enjoyed over the course of three hours. The 2005 Bougros pours a deep straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of marmalade, dried apricot, cashews, chalky minerals, leesy, and slightly sherried. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and super chalky.

This improved dramatically as it came up to temperature and had some real time to stretch its legs. It showed all the hallmarks of well aged GC Chablis from a solar year: powerful, dried fruit; the chalk; the acid; its creamy, leesy texture. The sherried, oxidative notes seemed to dissipate over time, freshening up a bit after being cooped up for so long. Bravo! Drink now and before 2030. Thanks Andy!
