Anniversary Tasting (Chicago Wine - Glenview IL): A few bonus bottles post-tasting. Lean lemon and green apple with some lean, grassy notes characteristic of Aligoté from this lean vintage. Good length, nicely bright.

Zachy's Lafite Auction (Le Bernardin Prive): Bottle 00388/3985. Cork taint that ruins the crispy texture and freshness, but the backbone of the wine is consistent with the last observation. 90

Funky, oyster like both in smell and taste; funky and a lot of minerality, chalky mouthfeel, long finish, hint of citrus fruits.

Acker 2019/05 (Zuma): 00383/3985. This bottle shows more clarity than last—a great wine that needs more time to integrate the oak and ripe fruit. 93

00389/3985. Really profound wine with a mellow mineral reduction. Vines in Vosne Beaumonts. There is a hint of dirt but otherwise excellent. 93
