2002 Joseph Phelps Insignia

Napa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more

2/10/2024 - tunaguy Likes this wine: NR

This is in the zone right now. Dense dark fruits, figs, espresso, dried tobacco. All joy at this point. Likely years more in the tank but for me this is at peak

2016 Jean-Philippe Fichet Meursault Meix Sous le Château

Chardonnay more

12/30/2023 - tunaguy wrote: NR

First bottle of Fichet. Quite of bit of reductive notes dominating for the first 90 minutes, settling down a bit after that but never really finding overall balance. Quality of fruit and winemaking is evident but I think this may be in an in-between stage. Worth waiting a few more years as I think sound bottles should be better at the 9-10 year mark. Prices on these have jumped considerably for Fichet and not sure if worth the hype off this particular bottle

2020 Morgen Long Chardonnay Durant

Dundee Hills more

9/28/2023 - tunaguy Likes this wine: NR

Durant comes across a touch more toward orchard fruit than other 20s on the nose but a bit more depth and complexity. More pronounced raw nut and fresh cream, along with lime zest. Palate leans more citrus with fantastic depth. Needed 2 hours of air to fully find itself and drinking much better closer to cellar temp.

Red fruits and spice. Lots of whole cluster characteristics. Struggling with the hype here. Blind, I may have said younger Oregon and then laughed out of the room when showed the bottle

2021 Morgen Long Chardonnay

Willamette Valley more

5/8/2023 - tunaguy Likes this wine: NR

This met my high expectations. High toned citrus notes along with a touch of orchard fruits, puligny reminiscent florals, spices woven into crushed rocks. mouthwatering acids. Needed a bit of air to really get with it, but not as much as some previous vintages.

gtilley's note is very similar to my experience with this. I would differ in that this is not a fruity wine, but what is fruity is quite subjective. A balanced wine IMO, that I think is priced perfectly in the lineup

2020 Benjamin Leroux Bourgogne Blanc

Chardonnay more

4/19/2023 - tunaguy wrote: NR

Ripe and dense for it's level, with orchard fruits and a dollop of wood spices. A touch fat and clunky at first, finding a bit more focus and energy with air. Needing a little bit of cellar time to come together but should be drinking really over the next year or so.

2019 Ballot-Millot & Fils Meursault Les Narvaux

Chardonnay more

4/15/2023 - tunaguy Likes this wine: NR

Nose of fresh and preserved lemon, struck match/smoke, crushed rocks, some fresh herbs, hint of grilled bread and cream. The palate is a touch clunky for now but showing similar notes though leaning a touch more into orchard fruits. A very solid village wine that deserves a few years in the cellar.

Drinking well right now. Very vosne with spice shop notes framed by dark red fruits, dark florals, and worn leather. Lovely overall

2020 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Au Bout du Monde

Chardonnay more

3/22/2023 - tunaguy wrote: NR

Mostly restrained lemon-lime candy type notes with really a lack of much else. It's airy but lacks minerality(there is a some), which was once a PYCM strong point. I've been on a streak of under performance at various levels of PYCM and this is another to add to the list. Tough at the $45 I paid, even tougher at the $65 for the WS average. Other very good palates seem to be into this, but this particular bottle struggled for me.

2017 Philippe Leclerc Bourgogne Les Bons Bâtons

Pinot Noir more

3/14/2023 - tunaguy wrote: NR

the nose has improved but palate remains quite rough with coarse tannin running the show still. I'll hold my final bottle for at least a a couple more years but I am not sure this has the depth to survive the tannin. Feeling as though the over did it in the cellar on this. Less would have been more
