2016 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau Chassagne-Montrachet les voillenots dessousPinot Noir more |
5/9/2022 - timjr Likes this wine: 92 pointsCompetent, but nothing exciting. Better the second day, nice cherry, herbal, and floral components to the nose. Prune and cranberry on the palate. |

2016 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau Saint-Aubin BlancChardonnay more |
5/6/2022 - timjr Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis is drinking great now! It is unlike any California chardonnay that I've had. It has a subtle beeswax note, a deep minerality, and a touch of citrus on the palate. The nose is fruity and somewhat floral. We had it with a white pizza (garlic sauce), and a hawaiian pizza, and it fit just right. |

2014 Pierre Gimonnet & Fils Champagne Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut FleuronChardonnay more |
11/21/2021 - timjr Likes this wine: 93 pointsLovely balance, just enough acidity, nuanced peach and apple on the palate. A bit too much bread / yeast in the bouquet for my wife, but I rather liked that. |

2016 Negretti Barolo Bricco AmbrogioNebbiolo more |
11/13/2021 - timjr Likes this wine: 92 pointsEasy drinking for a barolo. Doesn't have the rose notes I prefer, but does have a very light touch of asphalt and red fruit. Tannins are not too soft, but also not too much. Went well with spaghetti bolognese. |

NV Equipo Navazos La Bota de Palo Cortado 51 "Bota GF"Manzanilla de Sanlúcar de Barrameda Palomino Fino more |
11/6/2021 - timjr Likes this wine: 96 pointsThis stuff is unbelievable! It's the Islay whisky of sherries. Brine and olives and seawater and cedar and barrels and yeast and grappa on the nose, salty, tangy, sultana impressions on the palate. The finish lasts forever. Taken on its own, it may be a bit much. With the right food, strong dry cheese, or a nice onion and bacon flammkuchen, it's heaven. |
