Jadis Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Chardonnay

Vintage 2018 | true to type Chardonnay, with a certain refinement, balanced, juicy. I am hesitant to give a higher appreciation, because p/q ratio annoys me — 10 months ago

Eclats Brut Damery Champagne Blend

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our full cast of conductors include Andris Nelsons, Christoph Eschenbach, Keith Lockhart, Michael Tilson Thomas and John Williams. The beautiful and vocally talented Audra McDonald is our host for the evening along with Midori on violin and Yo-Yo Ma on cello.

This will likely be an evening to remember for some time. Program notes from the BSO "Reflecting the season-long theme, The Bernstein Centennial Celebration at Tanglewood will spotlight Bernstein's wide-ranging talents as a composer, his many gifts as a great interpreter and champion of other composers, and his role as an inspirer of a new generation of musicians and music lovers across the country and around the globe. The gala concert will feature a kaleidoscopic array of artists and ensembles from the worlds of classical music, film, and Broadway. The entire first half of the program is dedicated to selections from such brilliant Bernstein works as Candide, West Side Story, Mass, and Serenade. Music from the classical canon very dear to Bernstein's heart-selections from Mahler's Des Knaben Wunderhorn and music by Copland-plus a new work by John Williams, makes up a good portion of the program's second half; the finale of Mahler's Resurrection Symphony brings the program to a dramatic close."

We're revisiting some producer bottles from our late Spring France vacation earlier this year.

Awesome bottle, so mineral driven, toasted brioche spread with quince jam.

Jadis Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2020

This Chavignol-based cuvée is very deep. Nose has just-ripe orchard fruit, with a fleeting tropical suggestion, an herbal/minty note, and a deep mineral stank, almost feral in nature. Deeply flavored too, it’s bone dry and full bodied, and while there’s an up-front bit of fruit, the huge minerality quickly takes charge. Medium acids. Another Chavignol geology seminar in a glass. — 10 months ago

Métairies du Clos Vieilles Vignes Coteaux du Languedoc Pic St. Loup Red Blend 2015

WOW ! This is great and will still improve. Animality which reminds me a bit of Leon Barral’s Jadis and Valiniere. This top Cuvee from Domaine Clos Marie is absolutely great but needs decanting and air before serving. This is bloody good ! — 9 years ago

Just a monster. So dense and complex. Unreal density. I mean this is the densest Riesling I have had all year. Yet so fine. Unreal structure. This reminds me of Jadis 2012. Unreal. Unreal. The finish is a mineral blast to end all mineral blasts. — 7 months ago

All barrels. Usually a mix. No jadis 2021

Palate: mineral. Gods lemon soda. Hint candied lemon. Delicious. Really elegant.

Le Lavaux St-Jacques 1er cru était autour de $84 pour 2013 et 2014, j’en ai encore en cave, le 2017 est genre $125, dommage car c’est un producteur méconnu, mais avec ces nouveaux prix, ca ne vaut pas cela

On the nose a wonderful yeasty, red apple cider quality, cedar, tobacco and a bit vegetal. On the palate cherry, cranberry, raspberry, vanilla and tomatoes. Wonderful structure, high acidity balanced with nice tannins. Refreshing and scrumptious! Great food wine! — 12 years ago
