We recently acquired the Acclivi & Cannubi for '18; they're going to slumber for a while before I pull any corks.

Nice, agree as they usually need more time than the Monvigliero. Cheers!

Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin

Montmains Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2017

Very Droin in style, crisp and tight, fresh and mineral, with just enough density to make it a very good 1st growth, drinks like a charm.

Très beau premier cru de Droin, frais et mineral, serré et vif, avec juste assez de densité et texture pour en faire une bouteille qui se siffle en un rien de temps. 90-91

Marcassin

Marcassin Vineyard Chardonnay 2008

A milestone birthday requires some fun wines! 1st bottle to polish off is a 2008 Marcassin chard with Hog Island oysters, butter poached lobster, and shrimp.

Double decant for fine cloudy sediment. An irresistible medium gold color.. On the nose: nectarines, pineapple, vanilla toast, lemon, and crushed rocks. Taste: so gooood after 12 years. A slightly creamy wine with carmalized pear, wet stones, lemon peel, and a mineral peach long finish with good acidity.

Pensées de Lafleur

Pomerol 2012

Did not took detailed notes but this is a fresh, elegant, complex and very satisfying Pomerol. One of the best second wines of 1st growths in Bordeaux. 2012 is very much better than the vintage reputation. — 2 years ago
