Domaine Latour-Giraud

Meursault-Genevrières 1er Cru Chardonnay 2015

2015 vintage. Tasted the 2023 version two days ago (9.4). Massive fruit and acidity and built for the long haul. So too, was this effort. Decanted and tasted after an hour at approx 62 degrees. Medium-heavy body. Golden ripeness harnessed by governing acidity. Hovers in this state for another 4-5 years before descending to a different stratum. 3.20.26 — 5 months ago

Château de Pommard

Famille Giraud Grand Vin Pommard Pinot Noir 2010

Given an hour in the decanter this wine comes alive. Soft and earthy with a kiss of red fruit with a hint of barnyard that comes with age. — 5 years ago

Alsace Pinot Noir 2019

Just a perfect accompaniment to simply roasted chicken. Soft nose has bright cherry/red berry fruitiness, and a soft, beet-like earthiness, along with subtle cracked stones. In the mouth it’s soft and nearing maturity, with soft but adequate acids and a decent amount of soft tannin. The flavors have nicely-concentrated soft cherry fruit, and some nice stony minerality. Nice length for a basic Alsace AOC wine. I like this a lot. — 7 months ago

Alsatian Pinot Noir has become a thing these past 10 years or so!!

@Doug Powers - Yes. Global warming has helped a few wines in some cooler areas, this being one (along with Pinot Noir in Germany, Sancerre, and the Finger Lakes). Not to mention Cab Franc in the Loire now not routinely tasting like machine oil!

Watched a video with Andrew Jefford who predicted Alsace would be new Burgundy in the next 10 years

Code Noir Brut Champagne Pinot Noir

Not sure when degorged but superb bubbles and that old-school Giraud FdC nose that’s been lost in recent years and their cuvee insanity. Wish I had more of this, last bottle and pretty rare retail-wise now. — 5 years ago

Domaine Léon Boesch

Zinnkoepflé Alsace Grand Cru Gewürztraminer 2022

Bought in Colmar, Elsass. This was the best Gewuerz I ever had in the last 20 years. Super tropical and complex but also high acidity and some tartness. Unlike other vintages very little residual sugar left per analysis of the winery. This was so good that I am considering to go back next year and visit the winery - I ran out of time this time. Could not find a US importer. — 2 months ago

Prémices Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Bend 2019

Blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre, deep inky red color with aromas of ripe berry fruits and earthy spice. On the palate flavors of black raspberry, ripe cherry and blackberry with black pepper, cacao and earth notes, vivid acidity nice structure. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit and spice character. Good now will still cellar. — a year ago
