Cannot get enough of these magical Champagnes from Olivier Collin. Glad to snag this last bottle. The 2015 60 months sur lattes just dials everything up to 10. It’s deep and intense and radiates with energy and Burgundian flair. It has leesy richness, while at the same time shows impeccable purity and elegance. Swirls in a Burgundy glass unleash its core of caramelized stone fruit, curry leaf, rose oil and exotic spices along ripping citrus inflicted acids that lead to a long, tension filled and smoky mineral infused finish. Truly, like if Meursault could sparkle ✨ — 4 days ago

CLB! Always a sure thing. It’s consistently distinctive with soaring aromatics, piercing fruit purity and an elegant, balanced and vibrant palate. 2014 CGV continues to require a bit more air than its year older sibling, 2013, which is an easy pnp, but it comes around to show what a special Monopole it is. NSG with Vosne flair. Delicious. — 18 days ago

A few hours in the decanter served well to reveal what my favorite La La is all about. Finessed, elegant and seductive with complex aromatics of blackberry jam, campfire smoke, exotic spices, bacon fat and violets. It expands on the palate with great intensity, a caressing silky texture and a long and vibrant finish. Still young. — 5 days ago

14 Ramonet is ridiculously good and Caillerets is a total knockout showing amazing vigor, focus, concentration and a killer core of citrus blossoms, stony minerals, lilies and signature Ramonet spearmint. The texture, elegance and length on this wine is simply stunning. Superb bottle! — 18 days ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Valmur Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2013

9.6

Such an underrated vintage both red and white. Raveneau‘s 2013 Valmur is electric from the first pour wafting killer yellow fruit intensity, white chocolate, white flowers, notions of sea breeze and a little botrytis influenced saffron. The palate is deep, waxy and rich with balanced zippy citrusy acids and a crushed oyster shell minerality that gives way to a considerably long, focused and lifted finish. Fantastic bottle. — 19 days ago

Château d’Yquem flight—2016, 2006, 1997 and 1986. 06 and 07 showed the best, with 2016 of course so youthful and 1986 is mostly tertiary. Very special to try all together! Liquid gold. 👑 — 11 days ago

Les Tillets Meursault Chardonnay 2011

The south facing floral, pure and mineral Tillets and 2011 is a perfect match. It’s in a fantastic spot flaunting a beautiful bouquet of lilies, gunflint, hazelnut, honeyed stone fruit and lemon zest. The palate is incredibly vibrant with a crystalline purity, citrusy acids, an elegant texture and a stony mineral spine that holds it all together before its long, lifted and focused finale. 2011 Tillets has come together beautifully! — 12 days ago

@Lee Pitofsky Someone has to be top game on each varietal, likely this is the one for Aligoté, but still...

@Severn Goodwin @Lee Pitofsky Offered on release a few bottles @$145, I said to the sales person who I know, “No way this is where I draw the line “  TBH , I knew nothing about the wine.
