2019 Antoine Sanzay Saumur-Champigny Les PoyeuxCabernet Franc more |
2/17/2024 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 95 pointsTop quality cab franc in a warm vintage. Best to wait 3-5 more years to fully enjoy as its just a baby right now. |

2010 Domaine Taupenot-Merme Mazoyères-ChambertinMazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
12/20/2023 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 94 pointsFine, long and concentrated. Nice mix in between integrated oak, tertiary forest floor flavours and fruit. In a good spot right now and likely hitting its prime to keep for another 7-10 years |

2022 Familia Nin-Ortiz Priorat Planetes de Nin GarnatxesGarnacha, Grenache more |
7/9/2023 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 91 pointsNice fresh and smooth medium bodied garnatxa, far from the big and bold style of priorat with fine tannins. |

2009 Bartolo Mascarello BaroloNebbiolo more |
2/19/2023 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 92 pointsWarmth of the year shows a bit with slightly jammy fruit and more opulent style. Drinking well right now, peaking in likely 3-4 years |

2012 Giuseppe Rinaldi Nebbiolo LangheLanghe DOC more |
4/18/2022 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 90 pointsStarting to peak. Volatile a bit high on this bottle and fruit is fading. Tannin not fully resolved yet but body is loosening. Wouldn't wait too long for the other bottles… 2-3 years top to enjoy at its best |

2005 Château Haut-BaillyPessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more |
9/4/2021 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 94 pointsNice drinking window at the moment reaching its prime with a good mix of fruit and tertiary flavours. Tannins are fine and mellow and surprisingly tamed for an 05. Elegant mid body structure typical of Pessac |

2013 Domaine Jean-Louis Chave Hermitage BlancWhite Rhone Blend more |
9/4/2021 - Rickytoc wrote: 95 pointsNeeds around 2h decanting to show its beat. Rich yet elegant with glycerol. Quite classic but might not have the weight of the best vintage. |

2014 Domaine Taupenot-Merme Charmes-ChambertinCharmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
5/29/2021 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 93 pointsBeautiful Charmes all about grace and length, ready to drink but will jeep well over the next 5-10 years |

2014 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly BlancChardonnay more |
5/10/2020 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 90 pointsNice typical PYCM, bottle was a bit reductive and didnt fully blossom though |

2009 Sylvie Esmonin (Michel et Fille) Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. JacquesPinot Noir more |
1/26/2020 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 92 pointsA bit oaky but succulent and velvety, still a baby |
Red |
2012 David Duband Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les SentiersPinot Noir more |
7/7/2019 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 90 pointsA bit disappointing, felt it was harvested a bit early and it lacks some the tannins ripeness and fruit complexity with the stems inclusions dominating in flavours. Still a good wine that needs another 3-5 years to reach its peak |

7/2/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 93 pointsDelicious riesling from Keller, dont be afraid to decant.. |

2012 Roses de Jeanne / Cédric Bouchard Champagne Blanc de Blancs La Haute-LembléChardonnay more |
4/14/2018 - Rickytoc wrote: 90 pointsRather monolithic and not very expressive, quite ripe (too much?) and lacking the freshness you should get in Champagne. |

2015 Littorai Pinot Noir Savoy VineyardAnderson Valley more |
3/13/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 92 pointsTypical Savoy, more concentrated in 2015 and showing less complexity at this time but with great purity. Rich yet elegant with beautiful ripe tannins. Really good Anderson valley pinot |
White |
2014 Bonneau du Martray Corton-CharlemagneCorton-Charlemagne Grand Cru Chardonnay more |
2/22/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 92 pointsGood wine, lacking in power and contration for its pedigree. Well balanced, fresh, reductive winemaking with alluring aromas. Well made, hopefully will add some fat and should integrate well the oak in 5-10y |
Red |
2015 Château BeauregardPomerol Red Bordeaux Blend more |
1/23/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 92 pointsOne of the best Beauregard yet, althought 16 is supposedly a notch better. Nice purity of fruit, precision and lighter extraction than it the passed with fine ripe tannins. Softer edges witha plush round mouthfeel. Drink now or over next 10 years. Owners wants to get the quality up to Clinet and Hosanna. One to watch |
White |
2014 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Meursault 1er Cru Les GenevrièresChardonnay more |
1/4/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 94 pointsAnother great Meursault with fine notes of Spruce. Lenght, precision, power. |
White |
2014 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint-Aubin 1er Cru La Chatenière BlancChardonnay more |
1/4/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 91 pointsDelicious, rich and full. To drink over the next 5 years as not as much stuffing or length as the Chassagne but a great option to discover PYCM style and wait for the other 1er cru |
White |
2014 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Chassagne-Montrachet Les AncegnièresChardonnay more |
1/4/2018 - Rickytoc Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis bottle was marked by cabbage notes of reduction that never left after long oxigenation. Except fior that, great balance and freshness. Less volume than Châtenière and beaudines, more taunt and filigree |
