luscious, groovy, grand. Simply Mike-tastic. Notes of hope, redemption, currant, licorice, humid sunsets and candlelit dinners. A luxurious wine for luxurious company. — a month ago

A worthy redemption to my abysmal wine run in 2023! LC18. So delicious. Once more, I reckon WK nailed the tasting notes here, “Offering up inviting aromas of crisp orchard fruit, blanched almonds, honeycomb, walnuts and fenugreek, it's medium to full-bodied, concentrated and precise, with a fine-boned but intensely flavored profile, complemented by a beautiful pinpoint mousse. Brochet is the master of intensity without weight, and this wine exemplifies that.” Awe-inspiring salinity too if I had to add anything to WK’s notes. Super wine! — 2 years ago

Previous bottle was oxed, so this is a welcome redemption. — 2 years ago

Really nice with braised pork shank, which seems to have become a fixture since it was on the menu for the Shawshank Redemption. — a month ago

Gift card redemption on a rare Sunday evening out. Reasonably priced tasting menu and wine list — and all was delightful. All courses were quite nice, especially the ochazuke and “forest floor” dessert. The wine: light, flavorful, and very easy to drink. Would buy. — 2 years ago

Redemption for a underperforming bottle from our last go at this 1992. If you're buying old wine and didn't anticipate bottle variation, you need to know that's just part of the game. This bottle is fantastic.
(Enjoying alongside the '88 again today, no slouch on that bottle!)

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this afternoon with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our conductor Andris Nelsons is leading Sarah KIRKLAND SNIDER (Forward into Light; BSO Premiere), PROKOFIEV (Violin Concerto No. 2 in G Minor, Opus 63) and DVOŘÁK (Symphony No. 7 in D Minor, Opus 70).
 
Our soloist today Augustin Hadelich rounds out the program with Prokofiev’s intense Violin Concerto No. 2, and Andris Nelsons leads the BSO in Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7 – sometimes called the composer's greatest symphony. — 9 months ago
