The is the most elegant 88 red burg I've had and is on a par with the 88 Leroys. Really lovely, elegant and smooth palate with absolutely none of the tough acidity so typical of 88s. Gorgeous.

Real Good. The best 88 I've had in a while including the Meo Riche and Rousseau Chambertin. Beautifully balanced with great fruit still but the tertiary flavor you love in Burgundy. My oldest Bachelet and glad I have a bunch. Great length and could go another 20 if you desire.

Dinner at Cru with Peter Wasserman. Lovely wine. Still a touch closed for the first 30 minutes but after that was near flawless. A hint of bitterness on the long finish, but still a beautiful wine. This was the year of Denis's son's birth so it's a special wine for him.

Charmes dinner. Fresh, retains acidity. Easy to drink.

In mag. Complex nose of meat, red fruits…like the 88 Griotte on steroids. Dusty tannins and a sweet finish..Thanks Todd.
