La Landonne Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2019

2019 vintage. Last tasted 08.19.23 (9.5). Still medium heavy-heavy bod. Plushy nose, aggressively undying flavors and brick + mortar structure. Comparable to what it must have been like to see Mozart live back in that day. Confusing. Pure. Beyond mortal comprehension. "It's getting better all the time." 03.08.25. — a month ago

Les Vieilles Vignes Pouilly-Fuissé Chardonnay 2023

Medium golden color. Aromas of white flowers, green melon and fresh herbs. Melon, pear, green apple and citrus fruits (grapefruit and pineapple) on the palate with hints of butter and those fresh herbs. Pleasant mineral component on the finish. Lovely smooth and creamy texture (malolactic fermentation) but no sign of oak. Medium acidity. Nice start to the day, Keith S! Revisited in November 2024. Aging beautifully. Taking my rating up to 9.1. — 9 months ago

Côte Blonde Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2019

2019 vintage. Last tasted 07.30.23 (9.5). Good lord. This is still (unsurprisingly) effing ridiculous. Explosive and giving without being compliant. Every time tasting this, attempt to renounce Cabernet Sauvignon/BDX blends forever. Hopefully someday, I'll make it stick. 02.28.25. — 2 months ago

Rene & Pierre are a hell of a team. A great Rhône producer more should become familiar.

Les Cocottes Fleurie Gamay 2023

Delightfully carbonic and stemmy. Notes of tart and ever so slightly underripe blackberries and raspberries. Very floral and true to Fleurie. Love it. Wish I saved it for Thanksgiving. — 5 months ago
