Mercury Wine

Domaine Henri Boillot

Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay 2014

young but wanted to try since the wife ordered white burgundy and Boillot is occasionally premoxed. Not this bottle. Started out quiet, took a little time to unfurl and then: wow. Really great soft layered texture, like drinking mercury. Very intense and concentrated citrus and minerals, steely like CC should be, acid that tightens up the whole package and drives it like a laser into and through the palate. Then it just fans out and hits every nook and cranny. Fireworks! Super wine. — a year ago

Great to have a Burgundy made by the supremo of DRC. I have had an Aligote made by him. Notes on Delectable.

La Petite Côte Condrieu Viognier 2019

The Dr. Pepper to shake up my Cola habit. Condrieu is something different - thick, waxy texture, concentrated like mercury. Yellow canned peaches in syrup, apricot jam, starfruit, honey, and the most awesome orange liquor.

Condrieu or Cointreau?

Domaine Bernard Moreau & Fils

La Maltroie Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2009

why didn’t I know this producer earlier? Found these bottles recently but only have some recent vintages since I’m new to Moreau. This wine punches well above its weight. Beautiful floral and citrus bouquet, but the mouthfeel is amazing, like liquid mercury, thick and dense while lithe and graceful. The flavors are superb, orchard fruit, lemon zest. The balance and length are impressive. Great wine. — 4 years ago

I love this wine and will always sell it. Not many people share my passion for this wine. Still, I’ll always sell it. An unreal nose of raspberry spice cake that is so good. Heavenly. Big time herbs de Provence. Clay. Graphite as well. This is 60% Mourvèdre, 25% Syrah and 15% Grenache. Mint. Lurid black and red berry. This is my favorite southern Rhone wine and it is not close. This is my southern Rhone DRC. Impossibly complex and captivating nose. You cannot stop smelling it. Oh my god. Mercury must be in retrograde tonight as all wines showing sick. Holy elegance. Just so elegant. This is 15%! You would not know. Amazing purity. Such clarity. For people interested this is natural wine as Marcel Richaud is as important to natural wine as Lapierre or Chauvet. This is his piece de resistance. Best one I’ve had since 2010. I cannot believe how juicy and elegant this is. It glides. So so so so good. — 4 years ago
