1/6/2024 - eagreni wrote: 89 pointsRaspberries, red cherries and cranberries on the nose. Also green herbs, but in a good way to give some complexity. With air a beautiful tone of red violets also emerges. This is a much more structured and classic wine compared to the 2020-vintage. Personally I prefer this style. Medium plus acidity and medium length. Good effort for a BR. |

7/4/2023 - eagreni wrote: 96 pointsThe wine got apx an hour in the carafe before serving. Aromas of redberry fruit, figs, leather, cedar wood, paprika, slightly oxidative balsamic notes and a pronounced iron minerality. Builds complexity with more air, and a florality in the direction of violets emerges more clearly, as does a clear citrus touch. A very harmonious, balanced and seductive wine. Silky soft tannins, high acidity, medium plus body, very concentrated and with a long pleasant finish. A wine that started well, but grew and grew with time in the glass/carafe. It was at its peak after about three hours. |

2005 E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La MoulineSyrah more |
3/3/2023 - eagreni wrote: 97 pointsAn incredibly complex and fascinating aroma profile. Dark ripe raspberries, blackberries, leather, bacon, iron, white pepper, toasted wood and vanilla notes. The oak is still evident, but no longer overpowering. Very concentrated, great mouthfeel, delicate and fine-grained tannins, and endless finish. A fairly structured Mouline. An absolutely stunning wine at the start of its drinking window, a drinking window that will last for decades to come. |

2019 Domaine Jean Grivot Bourgogne BlancChardonnay more |
3/3/2023 - eagreni wrote: 90 pointsThe wine was given three hours in the decanter before serving. Distinct aroma of candied lemons. Apples, white peach, jasmine and stone minerality. Also a clear, but well integrated, hint of oak. Slender mouthfeel, good concentration and nice length. This was surprisingly good! I served this bottle blind, and really experienced tasters were guessing Burgundy village or 1'er Cru from a good producer, but lacking a clear adress. Obviously. Drinks very well now, and will probably do so for a few more years, but there is probably nothing much to gain from long cellaring here. |

1999 M. Chapoutier Côte-Rôtie Les BécassesSyrah more |
1/1/2023 - eagreni Likes this wine: 91 pointsA little uncertain of what to expect from this one. Basically a very good vintage in the Northern Rhône, but Les Becasses is not one of Chapoutier's top wines. A number of notes expressed that this probably is past its peak. Decanted carefully and only got 20 minutes of air before the reindeer was plated. Fortunately, nothing to worry about. |

1999 Massolino Barolo Riserva Vigna RiondaNebbiolo more |
8/12/2022 - eagreni wrote: 93 pointsWonderful mature barolo. Nose of black cherries, roses, leather, menthol, balsamic notes. High acidity, great depth, big mouthfeel, ripe but still bold tannins, long finish. This is in a good spot now, but there is absolutely no rush here. Both tannin structure and fruit consentration will make this wine run for at least another decade. |

7/15/2022 - eagreni Likes this wine: 90 pointsPurple appearence. Aromas of dark berries, black cherries and blackberries. A relatively spicy touch. Nicely integrated oak. Medium concentration, nice clean fruit, juicy, medium plus acidity, firm tannins, good length. A wine that drinks well today, but this will defintely benefit from 5-7 more years of cellaring. Good qpr! |

2019 Domaine Jean Grivot Vosne-RomanéePinot Noir more |
12/31/2021 - eagreni wrote: 91 pointsVery tight just after opening. A couple of hours in a carafe helps, and a rather generous aroma of red cherries is showing up. I also find raspberries and violets, but in terms of aroma this bottle remains guite introvert and shy. The palate, however, is a different story, and it brings to mind greater optimism on behalf of the vintage. A delicious velvety mouthfeel, crisp fruit, medium plus concentration and great acidity. Good length. A fairly compact village with dense fruit. This will need cellar time. An energetic wine with all components present, they just need time to fall into place. And with time this will evolve into a brilliant village. My remaining bottles will be left in the cellar for at least 5 years. |

2012 Jean-Michel Stephan Côte-RôtieSyrah more |
10/22/2021 - eagreni wrote: 90 pointsA lot of dirty barnyard when opening. Probably brett? Or is it related to the low sulphur production? Fortunately, an hour in the carafe helps a lot. And from here it just gets better and better. The wine has an incredibly complex aroma. Cool fruit, mainly on the dark side, with crackling and juniper, but there is also some red fruit here in the direction of cranberries. Lots of classic syrah markers like hung meat, leather and stall, black olives, pine needles and camphor. Also a fairly distinct scent of granite. In addition, a floral touch in the direction of lilies that comes and goes. |

7/31/2021 - eagreni wrote: 92 pointsVery fruit driven. Nose of red fruits, lots of raspberries and a little strawberries. Floral. Juicy mouthfeel, consentrated, good acidity, detailed, elegant style, long. A balanced and very good wine, but more Burgundian in style than classic Barolo. 2 people found this helpful, do you?

2012 Schäfer-Fröhlich Bockenauer Felseneck Riesling Großes GewächsNahe more |
7/31/2021 - eagreni wrote: 93 pointsAromatic nose of yellow apples, peaches, lychees, raspberries, slate and flint. A powerfull wine, but still with a lot of finesse and elegance. Very concentrated, high acidity, seamless, very long. An incredibly balanced and elegant wine! The 2012-vintage is perfectly mature now, but a 2005 tasted alongside was still in good shape. This suggests that it will probably drink well for a at least 5 more years, but I guess it is in it's prime at the moment. |

2014 Laurent Tribut Chablis 1er Cru Côte de LéchetChardonnay more |
7/25/2021 - eagreni wrote: 91 pointsAn hour in the carafe to open up. Aroma of ripe lemons, yellow apples, great minerality with limestone and flint, salty sea, hazelnuts. A typical chablis on the nose. The palate, though, is what impresses me the most. Steel like acidity, phenomenal fruit concentration, salty, energetic, very long. A relatively rich style, but everything is in beautiful balance. Delicious, fresh and refreshing on a hot afternoon on the terrace. |
