  • 2015 Domaine Denis Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St. Jacques 94 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru

    Tasted against Trapet Pere & Fils Le Chambertin 2011.
    Extremely fruity and high intensity and no tertiary notes yet. Typical Mortet. I was curious so could not wait trying a bottle. As expected it was youthful but it definitely has potential for many years of ageing: I am pretty sure this will develop to an outstanding wine with lots of complexity. Still 15 btls in cellar. Lookin forward to following the development. Le Chambertin 2011 from Trapet was less fruity, more savoury with beginning tertiary notes. I rated both 94. Both wines are pretty expensive, with Le Chambertin of course as the most expensive. In my opinion Mortet will over the coming years develop to the best of the 2.

  • 2004 Fattoria Le Pupille (Elisabetta Geppetti) Saffredi Toscana IGT 93 Points

    Italy, Tuscany, Toscana IGT

    Bordeaux blend (CS+Merlot) from Toscana. Tasted blind I. I had to guesses: It could be a warm Bordeaux year or it could be a super Tuscan. It was the last.
    What surprised me a lot was the vintage, We were back in 2004. It was impossible to guess based on the colour and aromas. Plenty of years left.

  • 2016 Domaine Des Vignes du Maynes (Julien Guillot) Bourgogne Clos des Vignes du Maynes Cuvée Auguste 89 Points

    France, Burgundy, Bourgogne

    Typical natural wine. A good wine. No reduction at all on the nose as you often see in natural wines
