  • This took a while to fully unfurl, but once it did it was utterly compelling. I loved it.

  • Heidi's Gang: Wind Chill & Frostbite (Maison Margaux, Mpls): Pale gold color. Drank a glass over an hour plus side by side with the '17 Genevrieres and '17 Corton-Charlemagne. This was an amazing trio by any measure. The CC was a standout immediately on pouring and continued to evolve. The Genevrieres was also open for business from the start, showing none of the reduction of the Perrieres. The Perrieres was more reclusive to start and showed some of the trademark reduction. Stony, clean, lemon confit, lime, sleek, gunflint, reductive but seemingly not ready to strut tonight. Then, with seemingly little warning after easily 40+ minutes or more, it blows up, shedding all of the reduction. Then, like a butterfly shedding its cocoon, this beautiful creature flaps it wings and all is right with the world. The power is there, the purity, the sheer presence shines through. Wow, what a trasformation. 95+ to 96(+)pts at peak.

  • Heidis Group in the Minneapolis "Warehouse District" on a bone chilling night. Same spectacular blt as Brad E. My clear #2 of 3 stellar PYCMs in the same flight. Opened alongside a 17 PCYM Meursault Genevrières & the 17 PCYM Corton-Charlemagne. On any given day this could just as easily have been my top choice of the 3. Also, very ethereal & elegant like my top choice tonight, the CC but there's something about Corton Charlemagne I guess that makes it the wine of kings :). It's really fun to have all three at the same table to savor the differences but I'd almost prefer to give 110% of my attention to anyone of these. Thanks Brad for bringing these! I love them!

  • PNP. Flight of 13 and 17 PYCM Meursault Perrieres. Pale yellow. Crisp lemon and flint nose, lovely spice. Complex and multi layered palate, tight and linear with a deeply flavored yet restrained palate. This was much preferred to the 13.
