Friday, May 26, 2023 - Old Guys lunch on Tilia's lovely patio. In attendance CV/DM/JV/TS/SS/LI/KB. Great weather, great food & lots of laughs. Siggy's btl. Oddly, a 2010 Forest in the same flight was pre-moxed while this one rocked! This is at its peak and so enjoyable that I'd be reluctant to risk keeping it longer. Dauvissat's Vaillons is less heralded than the Forest but always surprises me to the upside whenever I drink one. This showed stunning minerality, salinity & fruit all wrapped in a sense of regal elegance. Dauvissat at it best with that unique Dauvissat bliss & placidity found only in successfully aged btls. I lapped this up. My clear white of the lunch and a wine that gave Lonny's Chambolle a run for its money. A real treat. Too bad it's companion '10 Forest was pre-moxed! Thanks Siggy!
