Introduction
The Burgs reign the world
Flight 1 (1 note)
White
1985 Louis Latour Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles
93 points
Initially a hint of oxidation which went away quite quickly, giving way to a mature wine with interesting aromas. Quite fat, full-bodied, energetic. Less minerality than in other Chevaliers I recently had. More Batard style perhaps. But good bottle that held up well.

Red
1964 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche
97 points
Stunning wine even from a bottle with low levels (probably 6 cm ullage). Loved the sweetness, feel of harmony, very good length and the evolving nose - got some rose petals, some quite exotic spice. Another great Xmas eve experience.

1990 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Echezeaux
94 points
Drank this after the LT 1964 with J&J at Les Amis. Loved the wine, floral, feels very young, red berries, a bit of spice, pleasant acidity levels. Thought this has still a lot in store.

1983 Château Mouton Rothschild

really difficult following the DRC's for the Mouton to make an impact. Pleasant wine, well evolved, but not one on which I would bet my future at this stage.
