Flight 2 (4 Notes)
1995 Paul Jaboulet Aîné Cornas Domaine de Saint Pierre
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Cornas
Full colour. Meaty, fruity nose. Fresh, bright acidity, red fruits. Really quite couth. Hasn't been open long enough for the iron and blood aromas to develop yet. Plenty of time. Very good and consistent with previous bottles of this.

1990 Ferraton Père & Fils Hermitage Cuvée des Miaux
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage
Slightly cloudy (Linden rports that it has visited the Science Museum amonst others that day!). Light nose. Slight hint of sweetness coming through. Light attack, deceptive texture - very smooth. Slightly figgy fruit. Starting to break up a bit.

Good colour, bright. Lovely nose. Sweet fruit, mellow. Really lovely. Still some grip on the attack. Good weight and length. Very well balanced. Fuller somehow than I was expecting. Excellent.

2004 Domaine Chevillon-Chezeaux Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Bousselots Blanc
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Palest yellow. Scented, floral; nose, glace fruit. spicy. Slightly buttery, pineapple on the finish. becoming more and more atypical (of white burg) with time. Something exotic. Lovely.

1996 Louis Latour Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs-Gain
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru
Palest yellow. Mineral nose. slightly nutty, hints of tropical fruit. Clean and reasonable typicity but sems a little flat (general concensus was that this lacked grip and balance and might be poxed or possibly minor TCA). I wonder if this has fallen apart a little with slight aeration as when I uncorked it to check before leaving home it seemed classic - glace fruit and minerality in abundance, slight nuttiness and lovely palate. This was the first of two bottles of this - will open the other one soon and drink for the initial freshness.

1996 Domaine Ramonet Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Boudriotte
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru
Mid yellow to light gold. Oakier attack. Slightly pineapply. far less mineral, fuller, rounder and quite oaky on the finish. Clearly classy but for me, possibly de trop.

2002 M. Chapoutier Ermitage Blanc l'Ermite
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage
Deeper, mid yellow. Waxy, slightly oily, lanolin nose. Rounded, slightly oily, peach kernels. texturalloy, this finishes quite abruptly but some residual flavour lingers for some time. Good but not really my style of wine.

2001 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Cuvée Roussanne Vieilles Vignes
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Slightly deeper yellow than the L'Ermité. Slightly muted nose, hints of milk/actose (Rivella). Positive entry, quite lifted, slightly honeyed. Good, prefer this to the L'Ermiée but would rather drink the Condrieu.
