January 15, 2015 - Flickinger Tasting at The Casino (Chicago, IL): From a double magnum #baller. Holy crap, this thing is sulphured -- no doubt the format doesn't help either. Lots and lots of sulphur, but under that is a very chiseled and steely nose with some faint grapefruit notes. The palate is just as massive, with a very dense and steely character and acidity that's just razor sharp. Very difficult to approach now for just drinking (well, that's probably because of the format), this is a wine that ought to make you sit down and concentrate on it. Without a doubt Henri Boillot is making some of the most convincing affordable examples of white Burgundy on the market these days.
