Monday, April 17, 2023 - Vintus Trip preceeded by 2 days in Paris; 4/14/2023-4/20/2023: All R.D. are Grande Annee with an extra 5yrs. This is 70% PN and 30% Chardonnay. Excellent pairing with 25m Gruyère selected by Bernard Antony. Crystalline lemon candy aromas, apricot and coconut all come out when paired with the Gruyère. In hindsight this was the best pairing of the trip. Coconut kept coming to the front of this pairing, very unexpectedly. Pale lemon color next to the 2002 Grande Annee.
With the dessert course of a pear tartlet, almond cream, pears and chalk flavors emerge. Excellently mirrored pairing, full of layers. Wildly wonderful set of wines.
