Les Proces Nuits St. Georges Pinot Noir 2014

I usually am not such a great fan of MSG. I find the wines too harsh, too masculine. This is a great MSG, lighter, feminine, full of sumptuous red fruit, precise and delineated closer to a Vosne than a MSG with great balance. Enjoyable (a bit too much) but another 10 years in it. Above all still affordable which can’t be said of the other wines of this emerging (for me he has emerged) super star. Got enough of it to carry me for 10 years but afraid it is too good to forego. — 3 years ago

Château La Chapelle aux Moines

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

I like this one. Would pair great with Sushi on Fridays. Low concentration. Black Cherry on nose. Smooth and earthy, but light. Short finish. — 2 months ago

Domaine Robert Arnoux / Arnoux-Lachaux

Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru Pinot Noir 1999

Lots of years ahead. It improved as the night went on. No longer garnet at the edges, but still with structure from the mellow tannins. Raspberry and leather with a long finish. — 10 months ago

Domaine Robert Arnoux / Arnoux-Lachaux

Les Proces Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015

My Arnoux-Lachaux day. Had the 2017 Romanee St. Vivant at lunch. A 2018 Clos de Vougeot at 6 pm and this NSG at 10 pm. It holds its own with those two grand crus. All of these wines are full bodied but they display an incredible elegance. Red fruit and great salinity with a touch of acid to create great balance. For me Charles Lachaux has reached superstar status in 2018 with unfortunately prices to match. That is what makes this wine so great, it is still relatively affordable and scores almost as good as the two grand crus tasted earlier. — 3 years ago
