2016 Michel Bouzereau et Fils Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes-Dessus
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault 1er Cru
Lovely oaky savoury frame around steely core. Not about the ripe fruit. Long finish.

Glycern, lanolin, thick and rich. Sour white peach. Very different, very enjoyable.

2012 Il Poggione (Proprietá Franceschi) Brunello di Montalcino
Italy, Tuscany, Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino
Dark and glossy, well-balanced. Classic nose, but more tar and wet earth than roses; quite dark. Very fine tannins

2013 Podere Le Ripi Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Lupi e Sirene
Italy, Tuscany, Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino
Softer and sweeter than the 2012 Poggione Brunello which preceded it, more red fruit and more flowing. Decanter describes "grace and stealth" - nice.

2007 Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia
Italy, Tuscany, Bolgheri, Bolgheri Superiore
WoTN? Luscious, sweet fruits and dark earth, really compelling. Complex yet seamless.

Flight 4 (3 Notes)
2012 Musella Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva
Italy, Veneto, Valpolicella, Amarone della Valpolicella
Made by a female winemaker who cuts her vineyards by hand, at night at specific phases of the lunar calendar. She also plays music to her vines. Dense and sweet, sweetness enhanced by the Ornellaia 2007 which preceeded it. Rasins. Well balanced and restrained. VG with blue cheese.

2013 Royal Tokaji Wine Co. Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos Blue Label
Hungary, Tokaji
From halves. Like drinking pineapple, with dried apricots and peach. Still clean and fresh. Good.

2004 Dom Pérignon Champagne
France, Champagne
Really perplexed by this. Reduction, slate, gunpowder and smoke, savoury and resinous. None of the white peach or dusted cocoa that the box-insert described. Definitely very energetic, pretty long, but that reduction on the nose had me checking and re-checking that it wasn't corked (somm thought it fine).
