Rhône or Nôwhere 2.0 (Malcolm, NE): Not to be outdone, the 1989 Chave Hermitage Rouge showed more brambles than the ’88 along with other desiccated blue and black fruits. Dried flowers, beef, blood, leather and mushrooms. Every time I have the pleasure of drinking old Chave, I’m reminded that these wines have so much character and there is a reason they are so adored. Lovely with grilled lamb and Moroccan spices. Drink now through 2040. Merci Matt!

Friday Night at Dave's Place: This pours light garnet in the glass. The nose is absolutely bananas exploding in a blaze of sea spray, nori, dill pickle brine, sweat, saline, toasted and crushed cumin and coriander seed, white and black pepper, pickled ginger, dried cherry, and dried blueberry. The palate is silky with a bright red fruited entry with medium minus tannin and medium plus acid. The finish closes harmoniously on smoky blueberry notes. Absolutely astounding and a great value at $1250 CAD. This is significantly better than my last showing of the 1989 Chave and in my view only just a hair behind the 1991 and 1990. Incredible wine.

Ticks all the boxes. Nose evolved - dried flowers and herbs and leavy. Burgundian on the palate with fabulous length and complexity - top notch
