Another super interesting but tasty wine BTG in London. Very ocidative (by design) and sherry like. Strong diesel on the nose and palate. Very dry, very savory. Concentrated with savory and bitter orange notes. An intellectual wine, would have been better as an apertif.

Servido mediante Coravin. Un poco turbia pero en forma. Muy aromático con ese olor a jerez de viejas barricas. Largo, sabroso con las dosis perfectas de ondas ácidas. Siempre mi elección

This needed several hours to begin to really show its range of flavors, starting out very lean and mineral, but eventually showing lots of depth of ripe fruit behind the intensity of the structure. 07 is supposed to be a warmer, rounder, open year when it comes to vin jaune, at least compared to the lean, acid driven 04 05 06, but this is showing a great combo of lean intensity and warmth of fruit. Seriously good.

Opened and drunk over 2 days. First 12h spent in a decanter. Highly recommend that this gets good aeration before you start enjoying it. Great on its own but even better with a nice 2yo Comte cheese. First day I enjoyed it with Comte cheese, the second with a roasted meat dish. I find amazing the complexity and depth of this wine. Several layers with the nuttiness and the savoury profile that is great pair to Comte cheese. All that being said, this wine is extremely young, and given its sharp structure and intensity, it’s easy to understand how they are able to age decades.

Paris, Toujours Paris; 5/29/2019-6/1/2019 (Paris - France): Coravined. A bit turbid but on fit. Plenty aromatic with that sherry smell of old barriques.
Long, savoury with the perfect dosses of acid waves. Always my choice

Pear, wax, Indian spices in the smell. Quite a yellow color. Not extremely acidic, but a good level. Nice.
