2007 Domaine Potinet-Ampeau Meursault 1er Cru Charmes
88 points
Blinded. Honey, yellow flowers, seemly a little past its prime, nutty on the palate with some freshness on the finish.
White
2013 Domaine Henri Gouges Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru La Perrière Blanc

PnP. Lemon, steel, acidity bordering on intrusive. Long and focus finish. Hopefully time will help soften the acid but not sure if there are sufficient fruits to balance it out.

2014 Benjamin Leroux Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Murgers des Dents de Chien Blanc
92 points
Blind. Pronounced aromas of blossom, flowers and minerals. Fully body with lot of tension and lingering finish.
White
2020 Dureuil-Janthial Rully 1er Cru Le Meix Cadot Blanc
90 points
Blind. Linear, ripe fruits with very high acid and disjointed on the palate. Revisit at the end of the night after some air and it was better. Would leave it for another 3 years before visiting.
White
2017 Domaine Jacques Carillon Puligny-Montrachet
91 points
Blind. Pale lemon green, restraint bouquet of blossom, chamomile with a long grapefruit finish.
White
2016 Domaine Patrick Javillier Meursault Tête de Murgers Cuvée
90 points
Blind. Med lemon in colour, tropical fruits like mango, full body but a bit aged for the vintage and lacks freshness. Buttery on the finish.
Red
2017 Domaine Robert Sirugue Vosne-Romanée
88 points
Blinded. Pale ruby, hint of sprite, green bell pepper, stems, spices, touch of jamminess. Palate had red cherry, strawberry, full body. Sweet red cherry notes arise after sometime in the glass. Definitely not the style expected from this producer.
White
2014 Domaine Pattes Loup Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux
89 points
Blind. Had this 2nd time in a little over a month. Totally different experience compared to the earlier and rather disappointing knowing the producer. This seems little premox, med lemon in appearance with notes of chrysanthemum and honey. Finish was long with lemon notes.
White
2015 Domaine Thibert Père et Fils Pouilly-Fuissé Les Ménétrières
88 points
Blind. Blossom, chrysanthemum, honey, disjointed on the palate and a little more oxidative than I would have preferred, savoury finish.
