Meursault Chardonnay 2020

9.1

Medium straw/lemon colour . Quite cool yellow fruits on the nose , lemon oil and white flowers . On the palate fills out well , cool fresh yellow fruits , seashell , with good refreshing acidity . Good length with a touch of toastiness, mineral intensity on the finish . Good to drink now though you can imagine this going on for a few years still, 5-8 maybe . For a basic Meursault this has good balance especially in a warm vintage like 2020. — a month ago

Hermitage Lot 5 Le Vignon Vieilles Vignes Syrah 2018

9.5

2018 vintage. This is actually "Lot 3" (as per the picture) instead of "Lot 5." Cinnamon, baking spices and crumbled graham crackers along with flat, day-old Coca-Cola and a hint of clove in the nose. Medium/medium-heavy body. Beef blood, Ricola cough drop, anise, rhubarb, orange peel and sandalwood in the big, loitering finish. Tasted immediately after opening, 1 hr and 2 hrs later as well. Alternates between pretty and grippy. Not filled with rusticity or finesse...primal authenticity. Phenomenal now but changing addresses soon and likely to be just as special in 5-20 years. Last tasted 3.16.22 and rated a 9.3. What a difference a year makes! Need to pick up some more. 4.26.23. — a month ago

Tasted the 2019 version of this ("Lot 5" tho) today. Drinking well out of the chute. Gave it a 9.4.

Par for the course, this was quite smooth on the palate, but otherwise
hard, tannins were still very present, somewhat more resolved than the
last time I had this but still not giving up much. I don't want to say
closed b/c I don't think this will ever become expressive, but somewhat
austere, very old school.
