Flight 2 (10 Notes)
Vogue Musigny
1990 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Rich, earthy strawberry and rhubarb notes. Nice density; certainly ripe, but with a firm tannic backbone. Still some more primary elements, and should improve. Nice.

1991 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 87 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
More refined red fruits, with a somewhat aggressive and sharp finish that may show some damage. Enjoyable, but not at the level of previous bottles. A bit disjointed, but certainly not bad.

1995 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Hard red fruits, with a ripe edge that shows through. Masculine, more robust styling on the front, but still hiding behind a wall of structure. Hard to read - some earthy traces but still quite restrained.

1996 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Georgsous floral notes and ripe red fruits. Medium bodied, but a great completeness and grace. Still youthful, but lots of promise. Great '96.

1997 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Rustic, with some copper and metallic notes. Medium bodied red fruits; some brambly notes, but clear pedigree. Finishes very complete. Solid.

Off in some way.

2000 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 89 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Rustic, a bit tannic, and still needs some time. Masculine dark fruits. Nice but a bit non-desrcript in this lineup.

2001 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 93 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Red fruit and very svelte. Earthy tones. Still youthful but great balance throughout. Nice.

2002 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
Gorgeous ripe fruits, floral notes, and a feminine edge. Ripe but graceful, with firm tannins providing enough balance. Delicious.

2003 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Musigny Grand Cru
A bit reductive. Ripe, clearly, but some nice meaty elements. Young.

Flight 3 (5 Notes)
Leroy RSV... Wow
1991 Domaine Leroy Romanée St. Vivant Flawed
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Soy sauce and malty. Off.

1996 Domaine Leroy Romanée St. Vivant 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Sappy floral notes and red/black fruits. Spice. Stunningly sexy nose. Palate doesn't quite match up, with a firmer edge and somewhat muted relative to the nose, but really nice.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
1998 Domaine Leroy Romanée St. Vivant 97 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Sexy black fruits. Great balance and integration of elements. Spicy with a great roundness to the palate. Wonderful.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
1999 Domaine Leroy Romanée St. Vivant 96 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Delicious. Still very young, with sexy red fruits and floral/spicy notes. Not quite the completeness of the '98 on the palate, but still great length and density framed by a firm structure.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
2001 Domaine Leroy Romanée St. Vivant 93 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Great pitch and red fruits. Firm tannins. A bit of a hole in the middle versus the other wines in the flight, but still very nice.

Flight 4 (7 Notes)
DRC RSV
1986 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 88 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
A bit muddy, but still some nice darker fruits. Rougher palate, and certainly ready. Top heavy.

1993 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Firm, with red fruits and a good tension left with the substantial structure. Tannic. Nice.

1999 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Very young. Dark fruits for RSV, framed by some sap and spice. Still very tannic and somewhat muted, but promising.

2001 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 96 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Fleshy, sexy wine with plenty of sap and deep red fruits. Round and, while youthful, showing great promise.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
2002 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Deep, sexy, dark red fruits. Rich and sappy, with front-end density transitioning very gracefully to medium-grain tannins.

2005 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Dark, stern wine in its youth, but a voluptuous fruit profile peeking out a bit. Firm, but with plenty to balance it. Nice.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
2007 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée St. Vivant 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Very red, with floral notes. Medium bodied. Firm tannins. Nice, but lacks the pedigree DRC RSV usually shows.

Flight 5 (3 Notes)
Random good stuff
1934 Domaine Henri Gouges Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges 93 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru
Muddy red color. Shellac nose laced with red fruits. Great mushroom and rhubarb palate comes across far younger than it should. Very alive; nice wine.

1990 Domaine G. Roumier / Christophe Roumier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru
Earth and red fruits. Lacks the tone or feminine quality that expect, but high-pitched strawberry notes and rounding out very nicely.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
1999 Salon Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut 93 Points
France, Champagne
Ripe, crisp apple and citrus notes. Clean, with great clarity to the flavors. Note the up-front acidity of the '96, but still quite good.

Flight 6 (3 Notes)
Bordeaux
1990 Château Angélus 92 Points
France, Bordeaux, Libournais, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru
Softened plum and tobacco notes. Ripe, cooler fruit profile. Great texture. Nice.

1990 Château Margaux 95 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux
Deep, graceful dark fruits and cedar notes. Great balance of elements while still very youthful. Ripe. Delicious.

1995 Château Margaux 95 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux
Shows very similar to the '90. Characteristic Margaux, but good power to the fruit and aggressive tannins. Young. Nice.

Flight 7 (3 Notes)
Rhone
1990 Domaine Jean-Louis Chave Hermitage 94 Points
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage
Red fruit, rust, and a great gamey, meaty edge. Ripe but tamed some by age, and very well balanced throughout. Graceful. Delicious.

2001 E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Mouline 93 Points
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Côte-Rôtie
Much better than a bottle earlier this month. Ripe dark fruits with violet and meaty notes. Dense, with a semi-viscous texture. Very nice.
Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No
2002 E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Mouline 90 Points
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Côte-Rôtie
Spicy, with oak showing through dark fruits. Lacks the density and texture of the '01. Good balance for relatively near-term drinking, but certainly still youthful.

2008 Coche-Dury Corton-Charlemagne 95 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru
Bright, rich fruits with great density. Maybe not the tension that I've found in other vintages, but a characteristic great clarity and verve. Delicious.
