Introduction

Norwegian wine club Dionysos' "surprise evening"

Flight 1 - We were not Fooled! (4 Notes)

  • 2002 Hubert Lamy Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly Blanc 89 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Saint-Aubin 1er Cru

    Light, straw yellow. Pleasant, medium intense burgundy nose with flint, citrus and minerals. Soft and creamy on the palate, medium fruit with citrus tones and well balanced acid. Ends a bit short, otherwise a very good st. aubin (3 x 89 p)

  • 2007 Ridge Chardonnay Santa Cruz Mountains 84 Points

    USA, California, Santa Cruz Mountains

    Straw yellow. Tropical fruit, vanilla and canned pineapple on the nose. Fruity, but far too much oak for me - like chewing wood, and with an unpleasant, metallic aftertaste. Scored between 82 and 88 p within the group

  • 2002 Domaine Alain Michelot Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles 91 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru

    Clear, bright ruby with brownish edge. Red berries and a hint of barnyard on the nose. Fruity, surprisingly fresh, good acid. Good structured, well balanced. Pleasant, fruity aftertaste. Seems younger than it's nine years

  • 1996 Scarpa Rouchet 82 Points

    Italy, Piedmont, Vino da Tavola

    Dense, dark purple. Young appearance, high viscosity. Synthetic chemical aromas with cherry liquor and gauze. Light and watery on the palate, with fruit, acid and tannins gone. Was probably far better some years ago
