Les Perrières Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2017

Really nice overall, but definitely lost quite a bit from night 1 to 2. Pretty refined but with great earth and body. Has a bit of a rounded crunchy fruit quality in a nice way. Nice pairing with chicken thighs with feta and olives but was probably a better pairing a few years ago. Still nice and always appreciate bize. — 3 months ago

Fort Ross-Seaview Chardonnay 2023

Pale lemon color with aromas of stone fruits and blossom and spice, fruit from the Martinelli Charles Ranch, two miles in from the Pacific, aged for 12 months in 25% new oak. On the palate flavors of apple and pear with a touch of zesty lemon, crisp, with nitty vanilla notes. Nice mouthfeel, vivid acidity, medium+ finish ending with fruit, vanilla and citrus mineral character. Nice! — 5 months ago

Aux Vergelesses Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2014

Nose of cherries, earth, pine, palate is cool and composed, maybe a bit reserved, distinctly red fruited with ample spice and stemmy grip. Feels like it needs more time but elegant — 3 months ago

Aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and coastal wildflowers lead into a palate of pear, citrus oil, and crushed stone. The concrete egg and Austrian foudre lend purity and gentle roundness, while 15% new French oak adds subtle spice and toast. Bright acidity carries a saline, mineral-driven finish with impressive length and poise. — 4 months ago

Boys weekend in Detroit.
A very lifted expression of burgundy. So much focus and separation on the mid palate. Waxy lemons define the texture on the palate, which then combine with white fruits. Superb length on the finish. Moderate acidity and delicate sweetness bring home a wonderful experience from start to finish.
Even better on day two.

All estate fruits aged 11 months in French barrel, 30% new. A taut, mineral-driven Chardonnay with chiseled structure and sharp acidity balanced by deft use of oak. The tension between brisk salinity and supple texture is lovely. Give it another 3-5 years in the bottle. — 3 months ago

A bit syrupy on the nose but the highish abv is surprisingly well balanced. Lot of blueberry. One of the better Pinots imo but not worth the extra wait and still boring — 6 months ago

last bottle and it was the best — ever!

opened for an old friend and after battling a broken cork and decanting, it ended up absolutely pristine, darn near flawless. A testament to Fred Scherrer
