Les Jarollieres Pommard 1er Cru Pinot Noir 1996

An unforgettable bottle to crown our Taiwan trip. Gerard Potel’s 96’ Jarollières was just emotional and a testament to his mastery - he simply doesn’t miss. My first encounter with this Pommard vineyard revealed a wine less filigreed than Potel’s Volnay bottlings, leaning into darker, earthier tones, yet still imbued with his genius: crystalline purity and weightless intensity.

The nose unfolded sweet dark and red fruits, black tea, dried roses, violets, and a whisper of nutmeg and other spices. On the palate, it had plush, silky textures and extraordinary minerality - perhaps the most mineral-driven Potel I’ve encountered. With air, it deepened and felt livelier, revealing sweet red cherries, smoky tar, and irony minerality intertwined with earthy, tea-like nuances. Zen-like really, as it danced between sweetness and mineral precision, delivering a finish as haunting as it was beautiful. Pure Potel magic.

Zen Jumai Ginjo Sake

Sake World 2024 Had to judge given it’s the same glass throughout the tasting but nice. Hard to pull the flavors out compared to the others they were pouring. I would try as I liked most from this producer. — 3 months ago

Rittersberg Zen Alsace White Blend

Vintage 2018 | blend of five grapes. Develops honey in smell, a bit plump character. Good wine but this is not a happy match with my favorite fish, the modest dab and grilled green asparagus. Anyway, you can’t have all the pairings right, don’t you agree? — 6 months ago

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

Romanée-Conti Grand Cru Pinot Noir 1978

Astoundingly zen like, invariant in the mouth over a long dinner with a caramel nose and endlessly complex the wine is certainly memorable. — 3 years ago
