The third of 3 bottles purchased at auction and all 3 were stellar. This was the second wine of the evening for a milestone birthday dinner at the Inn at Little Washington. Beautiful citrus and stone fruits, excellent acidity and paired wonderfully with several seafood courses.

From a magnum donated from the Bonneau du Martray cellars. There’s a touch of honey development to the aroma. It has ripe peach and citrus fruit flavours. Theer’s some flesh and decent mineral cut. It is linear and very long.

Wonderfully rich with plenty of apple, nut butter, and butterscotch with intense concentration. Great now, nicely complex and layered, maybe further upside, but maybe this is it. Really great now.

Showed beautifully last night. Evolved over the course of the evening, showing a complete and well-integrated wine. There were little hints of mineral and fruit here and there but after several hours open this was showing lush brioche cake with sugar along with concentrated white flower aromas of jasmine and honeysuckle. Just a joy to drink and in perfect condition. There were times I would have been okay with a touch more acidity but to drink an aged CC of this quality there's not much room to nitpick

2nd of 12, opened 30 minutes, perfect cork and level, as first bottle on 7/3, a fine bottle of wine, beautifully balanced, if without the weight and authority of the best vintages though given its youth and scope for improvement, I would expect greater layering and dimension to develop over the next 3 to 5 years and for it to hold for a further 10. F+ (18).

Very beautiful and complex bouquet with butter, stone fruits and a light dose of fireworks. On the palate expressive with beautiful fruits, very tasty, beautiful acidity, minerals, a very small touch of sweetness, well dosed oak and a great length. Extremely beautiful and complex wine. 95+

Dinner with Jean Luc from Comte Georges de Vogue and his wife.
Such a fresh, lifted and pretty nose.
Bonneau typical white flowers, minerals and white citrus fruits.
Palate with pears, apples, lemons, lime and minerals.
Acidity is very precis and lifts the overall taste.
Superb length and finish.
Very fine vintage of this pearl.
Still only a baby.

Dinner with Jean Luc from Comte Georges de Vogue and his wife.
Nose is floral with citrus/lemons flowers and warm stone dust with hints of sea spray.
Palate is clean and fresh, with ripe sweet lemons and minerals.
A tremendous long and fresh yet complex finish.
This has developed and in the right direction since I had it 5 years ago, but will keep develop further and only gain from a few more years.

rich attack with butterscotch but it a bit of a fake out as it gets sleek and minerall pretty quick thereafter. Enjoyed and not at all in a reductive funk like the last bottle a few years back.

Rousseau Clos St Jacques and Corton-Charlemagne Dinner (Sepia - Chicago IL): Rich and nearly tropical with a hint of assertive structure, so lots of great things going on even if this didn't seem perfectly harmonious tonight.

1st of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level - light yellow, quite leggy; orchard fruit, lemon more curd than citrus, saline rather than steel, complex; medium bodied, surprisingly long, persistent and concentrated, waxy but fresher than 05 at this stage of development, at present a tad broad and immature, it should tighten and focus over next couple of years, upside, 10+ years. At least F+ (18) in this under-rated vintage.

Helle Farbre. Tiefgründig und würzig, viel Mineralik, Zitronen, mürber Apfel, Gewürze, feuchter Stein. Im Gaumen reichhaltig, konzentriert, ein Mund voll Wein, sensationelle Säure, wunderbare Frucht, dieser Wein schafft die Gratwanderung aus Opulenz und Eleganz, kräftig und doch federleicht, sensationell lang im Abgang. Ein Hit. 2025-2040

A number of Australian wineries have display panels, protected from light, where single vintages of 25 or more bottles of the same white wine, eg chardonnay, riesling, semillon, have been bottled under good quality cork and Stelvin. While the Stelvin sealed bottles matured consistently and steadily, those under cork are all over the place at 10 years with the diversity of outcomes increasing over time.
So too do vintages of Bonneau du Martray CC a potentially great wine owned up until recently by a family led by a great premox denier even when presented with one in his own tasting room ! My experiences are consistent with everything demonstrated by those Australian wineries described above.
This wine unlike others from the same vintage is perfect with a firmly in place cork and clear pale green gold colour that speaks of freshness. The nose is rich and fine with plenty of lemon, lime and tropical fruits balanced by honey, cashews, white flowers and limestone in the rain. The palate is gloriously rich with a mouthful of fruit, flowers and pungent minerality that provides grip and persistence to burn. There is maturity here but no hint of oxidation or undue development. In short this is white burgundy that we dream of - pungent, long aging, savoury yet fruit driven and persistent. If bottled under a decent closure I would have continued to buy this wine beyond 2002 !
So that's 1 bottle of 7 so far that's fulfilled its full potential !
