  Timuquana BYO (TCC): Drank next to the 1988 of this (which was out of mag). This was in a bottle. A bit more lift than the ‘88 and maybe a bit more evolution and in fact it seemed like the single bottle might have helped the wine a bit to develop some more. Spice and fruits.

  Exceptional and prototypical Volnay that is still so youthful, rich and layered with cherry and florals, yet refined and precise. Wow stuff.

  Thin, good purple fruit but somewhat flat on the palate. Acidity upfront with notable tannins. 91

  Mostly Burgundies: Had this last month and this showed quite differently. At first this was rather plummy and stewed without much structure, someone commented that this was over-extracted which I agreed with. At the end of lunch this gradually came into balance and showed more like the one that I had last month which was very impressive.

  Still very young in terms of color or palate. Very structured wine, even bigger than ‘93 Faiveley Beze next to it. Not your typical elegant and silky Volnay, still need time.
