Matthiasson Vineyard Ribolla Gialla 2018

9.5

More of a summer wine, but drinking great tonight. Also, if you’re a beer lover this wine might be for you. Cloudy, gold/orange color. You can smell the tartness on the nose, and if blindfolded might even think it’s a vibrant red. Sour fruit and wood on the palate. Medium plus depth and finish. Love the uniqueness and complexity!! — 2 months ago

Les Pucelles Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2009

Mid Gold in colour. Aromatics of yellow flowers and developed honeycomb notes. The medium bodied palate shows lovely yellow peach - great drinking at 14 years, but, splitting hairs here, would’ve had more energy a couple of years ago. Developing that aged lactic note and slightly syrupy on the palate. Mineral and saline notes at the end. The following night it was quite a rich concentrated, almost buttery Chardonnay. Back Story: “Les Pucelles” literally The Maidens is among the finest of Puligny’s premier cru vineyards. It is adjacent to Batard Montrachet and makes a wine of nearly equal concentration. One of the “1001 Wines”. — 9 months ago

La Grande Année Brut Champagne Blend 1996

From magnum, the 1996 Grande Année pours a brilliant pale gold color with a persistent mousse. Initially, the wine showed more oxidative notes but it freshened up considerably with air (in fact, a tiny amount was leftover for the next morning and it remained brilliant, racy even!). On the nose, notes of almond, citrus, honey, chalky minerals and brioche. On the palate, wine is developing with absolutely brilliant acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and zippy. The 1996 vintage is simply amazing. Here we are, 28 years past vintage and this bright and full of life! Granted, it’s a magnum, but still. Drink now with patience or enjoy through 2046+. — 11 days ago

Linda Vista Vineyard Chardonnay 2017

9.1

Very similar but previous note as it has massive apples but a much better texture as it costs the palate. Light gold color. Apples and camomile on the nose. Apple explosion on the palate. Lively wine. Medium plus depth.

This got much better after 20-30 minutes open. The apples moderated. Revising score from 89 to 91.

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2009

Perfect splurge for quick getaway to paradise for Presidents Day. The wine is medium gold in the glass… vibrant and alive with balanced acidity. Open and generous on the palate… smooth, silken, with vibrant citrus and cream notes. A lively and lovely dinner companion at this stage of development. Happy President’s Day, y’all. — a month ago
