Clos Du Lac

Les Fleurs du Lac

White Bordeaux Blend 2020

Fresh cut grass initially, then faint lemon and oily notes, crisp, refreshing, nicely balanced, medium-long finish, could use a little more cellaring, very fine white Bordeaux. — 15 days ago

Not too sweet, slightly acidic but quite buttery. Good parts of a Chardonnay without a ton of oakiness or too much richness. — 4 years ago

Domaine Guyon

Echezeaux Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2009

Not an expert in burgundy but I liked it a lot. It was a risky bottle that was stored in unknown conditions. 2009 drunk in 2024. Nevertheless, it showed great balance of acidity, sweetness and tannins, although somewhat disassembled structure. Power manifests itself when you sip but not for long. First notes were lac and leather, then periods of quietness, but then evolved with fresh oaky notes, then jammed wild strawberries, and then freshly crushed ripe blueberries. Overall evolution was not long but did driver very very pleasant experience. — 6 months ago
