Introduction
Incredible night of all the best wines. Forgot to drink 96 HJ CP and 99 LT, but those two wines I know pretty well so will look forward to drinking them again. Lalou takes the top prize in both white and red - goddess!
Flight 1 - Champagne (9 Notes)
Salon 2008 meets its reputation while the century-old late release Moet surpasses every expectation on freshness.
Flight 2 - White (20 Notes)
Lalou wins... she always does.. killer Batard. Both Leroy Perrieres also surprised on the upside. Late release Leflaive also incredibly young.
2015 Domaine d'Auvenay (Lalou Bize-Leroy) Bâtard-Montrachet 98 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru
00163/965. Insane sesame, so big but so graceful, power and elegance in one. Fat and lean! Easy WOTN. 98

France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault 1er Cru

03173/3640, 00/04/08 trio. Really shy today, very composed, pure white fruit, good weight. Perhaps just needs age. 94++

2008 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Montrachet 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Montrachet Grand Cru
00689/3524, 00/04/08 trio. My favorite, beautiful acidity for a generally very ripe wine, large, composed white and yellow fruit at a graceful balance. Not really big, yet. 95+

1997 Domaine Leflaive Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru
Late release wax capsule. Flinty and reductive, beautiful popcorn, great acidity. Too fresh, almost, even with the sulphur and reconditioning. Easily need one or two more decades. 94-95+

Lalou again...
1985 Domaine G. Roumier / Christophe Roumier Musigny 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Fun to revisit this wine after three months. This bottle showed similarly, on the light side, not the modern vintage powerhouse. Sous bois, cherries, grilled meat, woody. 93-94

2014 Domaine G. Roumier / Christophe Roumier Bonnes Mares 93 Points

2002 Domaine G. Roumier / Christophe Roumier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses 93 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru
Shy, not unexpected given the vintage, much less giving than the 2021 drank a few days ago. Good balance with content. 93+

1999 George et Henri Jayer Echezeaux 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Echezeaux Grand Cru
Heat affected, big shame given a similar situation with 99 Rouget CrosP earlier this week, but not as damaged. Good silkiness and weight on the palate, if even dimensional. Quite elegant showing its immediate friendliness to any taster. ~94

1983 Henri Jayer Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Cros Parantoux 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru

France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru
Made by HJ. Fourth Meo Brûlées this week, surprised me with the amount of acidity, quite textured and spicy but so young still. Perhaps should hold off with my other bottles. 93+

1990 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, La Tâche Grand Cru
13882/24071. Very good especially in the context of DRC performance in that era, but I stand committed to the view that 1990 has variations and this obviously falls short behind the regal RBG. Good spice and bouquet, very clear on the palate, but missing delineation and dimension which would make some wines legendary. 93-94

2015 Domaine Leroy Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru
00249/607. First taste at the red in this vintage and it is a different animal... stunningly complex and haunting nose of dark red fruit, grilled meat, violet, wood and mineral. Racy, structured and huge on the palate. Peak performance of a premier cru vineyard. 95-96+
