Joseph Drouhin Dinner (Medlar (London)): I suspect this was not this bottle's best day (yet), chalky on the nose, bit smokey but lacking the sumptuous fruit of the Clos Mouches 14 served next to it. This needs more time. Let it sleep for 2 years+ and it should have potential to add a few more points.

Burnt butter nose, riper than the Preuse served before it, more peach. Less precise and shorter finish than Preuses. Some chalky mineral on finish. Decent wine but my least favorite of the flight. Others at the table enjoyed this considerably more, so could just be my preference.

Terroirs de Corton - Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Cuverie Domaine Latour - Aloxe-Corton): Tasting, brief note. Beautifully floral start. Good orchard fruit, moderate depth. Very good for its level, should drink well young, 2020 forward.
