2000 Le Clos du Caillou Châteauneuf-du-Pape Domaine du Caillou Les Quartz 94 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Double decanted to remove sediment. I haven't had this wine for 8 years and it is right where I remember it. The nose on this is killer. The flavor profile is garrigue, earth, cherry, and it ends with some nice spice and pepper. The palate brings more earth and garrigue.

1998 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de mon Aïeul 90 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
There's a lot to like in this CDP, but it is definitely on the rustic side and remains quite big in its old age.

2010 Domaine du Pégau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée 93 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The Pegau profile is evident, only a touch of brett on this bottle. Kirsch, garrigue, mushroom, leather and funk.

2014 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape 92 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Drank a small glass over an hour. This is a sad testament to how much cellar time Beaucastel needs, this is half-baked right now and needs 5+ years in my opinion. Floral and green right now, savory, packed with flavory, it needs to calm down although you can struggle through it.

2011 Domaine du Gros 'Noré Bandol
France, Provence, Bandol
Big and burly. When are Bandols ever ready to drink? It seems they need 20+ years.

2014 Domaine Auguste Clape Cornas
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Cornas
I don't think this was decanted, and it came across as green and unyielding.

NV Vilmart & Cie Champagne Premier Cru Grand Cellier Brut 92 Points
France, Champagne, Champagne Premier Cru
Drank a small glass over 45 minutes. Crispy with brisk minerality, pear and a touch of yeast. Another great bottle!

NV Union Champagne de Saint Gall Champagne Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs 89 Points
France, Champagne, Champagne Premier Cru
This reminded me of an extra brut, lean, mineral-driven, fruit is tart, a minimal amount of complexity.

A reall small pour, but this screamed extra brut and seemed a bit dull.

2014 Delas Frères Condrieu Clos Boucher 93 Points
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Condrieu
Drank a small glass over 45 minutes. I love the floral notes to this and it seems elegant. This is an accessible and friendly Northern Rhone.

2011 J.L. Chave Sélection St. Joseph Céleste 91 Points
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, St. Joseph
Drank a small glass over 45 minutes. Lots of floral notes and some pleasant minerality. This was drinking much nicer than it was 8 years ago.

2016 Domaine Grand Veneur Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc La Fontaine 89 Points
France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Drank a small glass over 45 minutes. Consistent with previous note - intellectually intriguing but not particularly satisfying. There is spice and and yellow melon, along with a fair amount of acid.
