Grand Hotel Vesuvio

Domaine François Raveneau

Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 1999

Taken to Hawksmoor in NYC for our uncle’s 75th. Decanted in hotel for 7 hrs before dinner. Light to medium gold color, heavy in the glass. At first the nose is muted with light citrus and white flower notes. Late in the evening after 10 hrs of air this finally blossomed into the Raveneau they is known and loved. Notes of citrus fruit, ocean breeze, kiwi, white stone, white clay and tan spice. Acidity finally came on too. Great wine but still too young. Needs 5-10 years of additional age to be in the ”go” zone. 94++ — a year ago

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Needs a healthy decant and non hotel glass. Still tight, could go a few more years. But after some swirls and last glass, really elegant and fine tannins. Almost ripe blackberry and currant. Integrated oaky spice and long finish. — 3 years ago

Bouzy Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir 2011

We're sharing some pregame bottles before my corporate, year end holiday celebration! These bottles will likely be miles ahead of the wines to be enjoyed the moment we step out of the hotel room...Jamais en Vain, Toujours in Vin!

All prior notes apply, such a wonderful bottle!

Red wine at Grindelwald hotel restaurant.
Smells of cow dung(?!?) haha but luckily doesn’t taste like it. Medium heaviness, fruity and easy and interesting to drink. Like it. Apparently a very expensive one!!
