Casual Burg Dinner with Friends (Formento's - Chicago IL): Ripe orchard fruit aromas and flavors. Slightly musty to start, even a bit muted. Really opened up with 10 minutes in glass. Age appropriate evolution with very good concentration. Very good length. started shortening after an hour in glass, then less interesting after two hours. Best through 2018 or so.

Meursault (Northside) 1er Cru vs Village, Mostly Blind (The Moll House - Chicago IL): Alongside the very tired 1999, this was drinkable but disappointingly advanced. Much better when last tasted a couple of times in 2016 and 2017.

Casual Burgundy Dinner (The Bristol - Chicago IL): Ripe apple, still nicely fresh and vibrant. Very good weight, good+ length. Starting seeming tired after open 3 hours..

Blind White Tasting with Top 2000 White Burgundy (Les Nomades - Chicago IL): Lots of apple, very fresh and energetic with good concentration. Group consensus this was clearly the highlight of the flight.
