All I'd hoped for - smooth, refined, detailed - just brilliant.

2015 Changyu Vidal Golden Diamond Golden Icewine Valley
China
Off the list at 67PM: I'm not 100% sure if this is the wine we had - but it was a classic ice wine, riesling in style, even if the grape is something called vidal

Somewhat sweet, but glorious over the top unctuousness and perfume.

1985 Château Palmer 95 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux
Sensational. A bit of everything - blackcurrant, herbs, a sweet middle, a twist of green. Nad thought at first it might be corked, just as I had with my first sniff a few years back at 67PM, but he soon came round to the fact that it was fine.

Figs and parma ham
Harissa steak, tomato sauce, potato wedges
1998 Dom Pérignon Champagne P2
France, Champagne
Advanced, not much fizz, and not much zing. It got much better in the glass. Very buttery. But not a patch on previous bottles. I've now had this wine five times. Three times it's been amazing and twice it's been just like this.

2017 E. Guigal Condrieu La Doriane 95 Points

Heady, voluptuous, extravagantly perfumed - this was sensational.

2005 Domaine Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques Vieille Vigne 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru
Pretty strawberry and cherry fragrance, but earth and iron too. It's not explosive like it was in its youth, but there's power behind that prettiness. Super, and entering its prime.

1978 Paul Jaboulet Aîné Hermitage La Chapelle
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage
Opened six or seven hours in advance, but not decanted. To start with it had a glorious smoky bacon aroma, but this receded. Powerful and savoury, but past bottles have had a piercing blackcurrant core which was missing here. An attractive mature hermitage, but not the superstar that it has been.

1850 D'Oliveiras Madeira Verdelho 98 Points
Portugal, Madeira
So fresh and vibrant you wonder if it's genuine. [This bottle had the black and gold paper label A faker would surely have used a stencilled bottle]. Brown sugar sweetness, but with twist upon twist of fruit and umpteen other flavours. Absolutely amazing.

Sardines paté
Boeuf bourgignon
Mont d'Or and Lancashire
1995 Charles Heidsieck Champagne Blanc des Millénaires 90 Points
France, Champagne
Old batch, old label. Nice, creamy, rich, very mature wine, but on the downslope and lacking the grip and energy that it used to have.

2015 Francois Gerard Condrieu Côte Chatillon 90 Points

Poised, oily, restrained - some grandeur

2005 Domaine Maume Mazis-Chambertin 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru
Classy, balanced, chalk and red fruits, probably has more to give, quite without the wildness of past vintages, this was super refined.

2006 Domaine Denis Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
The plushest red fruit style burgundy you'll ever need, quite full, not deep, but very attractive
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Report Issue
2001 Château Rieussec
France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Sauternes
Much better than the last showing. There was a touch of the acrid, but it was just a note and the palate showed all the rich apricottiness you'd expect.

2015 Henri Jouan Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Echezeaux Vieilles Vignes 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
The most raspberryish burgundy ever, the fruit quite extraordinarily vivid, but plenty of layers too.

Crab and grapefruit salad
Lamb steaks and crushed potatoes
2002 Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Cuvée Rare
France, Champagne
Served a bit too cold, it got lost in the riesling glasses. We switched to flutes and it showed much better, but by then I was too busy cooking to give it the attention it deserved.

1988 Von Schubert Maximin Grünhäuser Herrenberg Riesling Auslese 94 Points
Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer
Wow! It's so sharp, so piercing, the flavour all lime wrapped in coconut - a hint of earth - thrilling stuff

1985 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Pauillac
Just perfect. The best bottle yet. All the cedar and cab you could want, tangy, vibrant. Utterly wonderful.

1990 Domaine des Aubuisières Vouvray Sélection de Grains Nobles Le Marigny 93 Points
France, Loire Valley, Touraine, Vouvray
Deep pink gold, still a decent amount of sweetness, though it's lost its lushness, and it lingers on beautifully.

Sardine paté
Braised chicken with sherry and cream
2002 Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Cuvée Rare

Huge expectations after the previous bottle in the summer, and this wasn't quite as good, though obviously a fine rich grand bottle.

1983 Domaine Jean Grivot Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Chaumes 90 Points

2012 Henri Jouan Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Echezeaux Vieilles Vignes
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
As is often the case, a youngster served after old wines can taste a bit confected. I'm sure it was as good as all the previous bottles.

Sensational again. Vibrant, spicy, and for all its richness, not at all fat.

1995 Domaine Armand Rousseau Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru
Smoky, some funk and earth, fully resolved, a lovely old Gevrey really, but it lacks some of that Rousseau luminosity that I'd hoped for

For all its ripeness, this still has a bracing edge, and the toastiness is divine.

2005 Clos Rougeard (Foucault) Saumur-Champigny Les Poyeux 93 Points
France, Loire Valley, Anjou-Saumur, Saumur-Champigny
Minty, cedary, fne grained and showing amazing lightness despite its substance. Much more like a top claret than last night's Clos 07.

2006 Domaine Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques Vieille Vigne 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru
Bright, vivacious, red fruited. The flavour profile is essentially the same as the villages, but it just has that extra bit of authority.

2009 Ballot-Millot & Fils Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières 93 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault 1er Cru

2001 Domaine Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques Vieille Vigne 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru
Just a tiny hint of sweat on the nose at the start, but then it's just layer on layer of strawberry fruit, gentle, sweet, utterly gorgeous

1985 Charles Heidsieck Champagne Oenotheque Champagne Charlie Brut 92 Points
France, Champagne
Ginger and dried fruits on the palate, soft and gently fizzy, clearly old, but not at all oxidative, just very stately

1985 Château Cos d'Estournel Flawed

1997 Domaine Armand Rousseau Père et Fils Ruchottes-Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes 96 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru
Absolutely stunning yet again (our fourth bottle in as many months) - deep, mysterious, silky, fresh, this has it all seems way better than the CSJ and the Chambertin in this vintage.

1993 Château Pajzos Tokaji Esszencia

The intense raisin flavour is lovely, but it's too gloopy, an instance where the texture undermines the taste

1937 D'Oliveiras Madeira Sercial Reserva 97 Points
Portugal, Madeira
High acid and savoury, but with a sumptuous sweet sappy core to balance - dried fruits, lemon, marmite - but really there so much flavour here, it's beyond description. Thrilling

France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru
Attractive straw gold, full bodied, thick lanolin fruit, waxy,a hint of butterscotch, but low acid - ultimately rather dull and therefore for such a grand wine a big disappointment

2010 Château Suduiraut

This was from a half-finished bottle in the fridge which I think was opened last Christmas, i.e. seven months ago. Hardly any signs of deterioration - thick, coconutty and very sweet.
