David E. organized the third Zoom session. The theme was CT auction price under $125 with at least ten years of age. A few of the wines showed really well.
The Breze was really Burgundian that made me to guess St. Aubin. The 86 Chapoutier was tired and never recovered.
The LB and the D'Issant were very nice. Although not terribly complex and refined, they were solid classic Bordeauxs.
2014 Domaine Guiberteau Saumur Blanc Brézé 94 Points
France, Loire Valley, Anjou-Saumur, Saumur
Clean nose displaying fresh rich white citrus fruit, honey, saline, flint and limestone. Excellent concentration, slightly coiled ripe citrus, dense yet focused and precise, bright acidity, strong limestone mineral, and a long cool citrus fruit driven finish with a hint of honey and mineral at the end. It reminds me St Aubin in rich yet cool fruit and strong mineral expression. All guess White Burgundy. Excellent showing.

1986 M. Chapoutier Hermitage Blanc 180th Anniversary 82 Points
France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, Hermitage
Bright golden color. I splash decant and hope it will open up. Although interesting, it never gets fresh and remains dull. Not sure if this is a correct bottle.
