2004 Château Rayas Châteauneuf-du-Pape Reserve
3/30/2024 - PJRONeill Likes this wine: 95 Points
Absolutely gorgeous, in a perfect spot for current drinking. Maybe just a tad lightweight given the vintage, goodness knows what this must be like in a better year, but I’m nitpicking. Delicious sweet red fruits and lovely purity. Red of the year so far for me.

2005 Coche-Dury Bourgogne

A beautiful ruby red color, strawberry compote on both the nose and the palate, this is relatively undeveloped after 19 years but is bright and fresh with lovely detail on the palate. Worth holding onto bottles for another decade to allow for some secondary development.

2000 Henri Bonneau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Réserve des Célestins

Still cruising along at a high level, this was at the level of my 2016 bottle and a step or two ahead of the bottle drunk in September 2020. Plenty of life left here, intensely complex nose with plenty of barnyard, plums, spices and herbs. Deep and broad on the palate with a long finish. A great start to the new year.
