2004 Marcarini Barolo BrunateNebbiolo more |
3/31/2024 - JohanPe wrote: 90 pointsNo in depth notes. Mature nose with mostly secondary notes and not that much fruit. The palate has a solid structure with good acidity and firm, but mature, tannins. Lots of sediment in this bottle. Decent showing but my prediction is it isn’t going to get much better than this. |

2011 Elio Sandri Barolo Riserva PernoNebbiolo more |
1/12/2024 - JohanPe wrote: 94 pointsNo notes, just a few thoughts from memory. 2 hours in the decanter. Fabulous nose, traditional and rustic. Dark fruit, rosehip, tar, leather, dried roses. Lots of complexity, and finesse too. |

2014 Jean-François Ganevat Côtes du Jura Cuvée FlorineChardonnay more |
12/16/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 93 pointsVery good showing with some (very) early notes of maturity and more balanced acidity than last bottle. Complex with citrus fruit and white flowers. Dusty appearance and long aftertaste. Nowadays you have to be thankful for getting the opportunity to try this stuff. |

2013 Maison Valette Mâcon-Chaintré Vieilles VignesChardonnay more |
12/16/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 93 pointsConsisent with previous note, haven’t moved much or anything at all. Feels like the 2013 is slower than its neighbour vintages. Super solid and drinks very well. Guessing 5-10 more years for significant development. |

2014 Domaine de la Côte Pinot Noir La CôteSta. Rita Hills more |
11/18/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 94 pointsSo much better day 2. Balanced beyond imagination. High quality fruit, cool and ripe. Strawberries and raspberries. The stems that was prominent the first night is well integrated day 2. Complex and very long aftertaste. Impressive with a bright future. |

2010 Francesco Rinaldi e Figli Barolo CannubiNebbiolo more |
11/18/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 92 pointsVery much in line with previous note. The first night somewhat out of balance and falls short on the palate, from the middle and forwards. Still needs time. Day two a much better experience. More harmonious and with fruit to back the structure. A lot of secondary notes and early maturity. Liquorice and salvia prominent. Medium acidity, fine tannins that’s starting to soften. Strike me as delicate when it comes to cellaring, could very well benefit from 5-10 more years. |

2015 Királyudvar Furmint Tokaji Secmore |
9/30/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 90 pointsPretty much in line with previous note. Some additional development with a slightly more waxy profile. Honey, white flowers and lemon. Entering its drinking window now. Versatile and a bit of a swiss army knife in terms of food pairing. Very good qpr. |

2019 Martine Rouchier St. Joseph La ChaveSyrah more |
7/7/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 92 pointsDriven by silkyness and terrior. After one hour of air this bottle sings and offers dark fruit, earth, herbs, meat and smoke. On the right path and will only get better the coming decade. |

2012 Roagna Langhe RossoLanghe DOC Nebbiolo more |
7/1/2023 - JohanPe wrote: 90 pointsNot showing as good as previous bottles. A bit off balance wise with some what harsch structure compared to the fruit. Secondary notes such as dried roses, balsamico and leather. Might not be representative at all and only a slightly less good bottle. |
