5/8/2024 - Peter Spijker Does not like this wine: 89 pointsVery natural, hazy, nectarines and orange (both in terms of taste and color!), did not make a note of this. |

5/8/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis is in a really nice spot now, lots of cherry fruit, some tomato leaf/pleasant greenness, floral, some whole bunch spice. Really good. |

2022 Louis Billard Volnay 1er Cru ChevretPinot Noir more |
5/5/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: NRNot rated as I had a few sips directly after Coravin. I think this has some serious potential, elegant red fruits, good acidity, lovely style. Currently this is quite tight and young (of course). I think drinking this in 5-10 years or so will prove it to be a lovely wine. |

NV Chartogne-Taillet Champagne Cuvée Sainte AnneChampagne Blend more |
5/5/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 90 pointsI love the balance between elegant oxidative caramel notes and fruit in this, the finish is perhaps a bit short and there is a slight bitter note, but for the price this is excellent stuff. |

2019 Morgen Long Chardonnay MarineWillamette Valley more |
5/4/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 92 pointsI did not make a note of this as we were just enjoying with friends. Lovely fresh style and elegant wine that made a South African Chardonnay next to it feel flabby, overripe and boring. Next bottle I'll pay more attention :). |

2018 Lismore Chardonnay Estate ReserveGreyton more |

2019 José Luis Ripa Sáenz de Navarrete Rioja RIPA Vino RosadoGrenache Blend, Grenache more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis was less of a baby Tondonia rose than the 2018, which I found more oxidative. This was fresher in style, more elegant, but also less intense. Perhaps keep this in the bottle for a bit, although I doubt it has the fruit to age for a very long time. |

2017 Sadie Family SoldaatPiekenierskloof Grenache more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 92 pointsDidn't give this enough time to appreciate it properly or write a note. It was nice however. |

2018 Domaine Duroché Gevrey-ChambertinPinot Noir more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker wrote: 90 pointsDeep and brooding, needs time to open up, feels a bit alcoholic, dark cherry, earth, soft tannins. Not my preferred style. |

4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: NRHigh acidity, very fresh style, peach, lemon, white flowers, elegant use of oak, yellow apple, very good. My last bottle of this vintage. |

4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 92 pointsVery elegant, clean and approachable, but also very young. White flowers and white peach, nicely balanced sugar and acidity, lime peel and some mint. Score is for drinking now. |

2021 Maison Lou Dumont Gevrey-ChambertinPinot Noir more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 93 pointsI really liked this. It is a lighter style Gevrey, quite floral, bright red fruit, open straight from the bottle, some spices, lovely acidity. |

2019 Schloss Johannisberg Riesling Grünlack SpätleseRheingau more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 91 pointsThis was pretty, quite sweet (perhaps thats due to the region as well), some ripe peach, medium finish. Nice wine, but I don't think this is worth 100 points. |

2020 Domaine Belluard Gringet Vin de Savoie Eponymemore |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 92 pointsIt was great to have tried Eponyme, as sad as the story behind it may be. Very pure, mineral, some citrus and yeasty notes, fresh acidity. Very cool wine. |

2014 Domaine Gauby Côtes Catalanes Coume GinesteGrenache Blanc, Grenache more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 92 pointsThis was lovely, a bit round, salty and flinty, confit lemony fruit, medium acidity. |

2019 Domaine du Bel Air (Pierre et Rodolphe Gauthier) Bourgueil Grand MontCabernet Franc more |

2015 Clos Rougeard (Foucault) Saumur-ChampignyCabernet Franc more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 94 pointsSimilarnote to Thijs; elegant green notes, dark cherry, some cranberry, good acidity, didn't get much barnyard. Lovely elegant wine, drinking at its apogee now. |

2018 Pierre Gonon St. JosephSyrah more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 94 pointsAnother bottle of 2018, and it is again so open. Very generous in its black fruit, olives, flowers. Smooth and velvety texture, less tannins than I would have expected based on previous bottles I've tried. A wine that always impresses, and there is no shame in drinking this now. |

2019 Pierre Gonon St. JosephSyrah more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 93 pointsThe 2019 Gonon St. Joseph was more open than than I remembered it to be. It has the typical Gonon signature of olives, dark cherry, smokey meat, green herbs, some noticable tannins still. Needs a bit more time, but its getting there! |
White |
2019 Domaine Roulot Bourgogne BlancChardonnay more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 91 pointsQuite similar to last note some lemon, creaminess, blossom, pear, restrained use of oak. This opened up with a bit of time and showed some faint tropical fruit and more vanilla. this gained weight with some time and a higher temperature. It carries the 14% alcohol well. |

2017 Domaine Jean-Marc / Thomas Bouley Volnay 1er Cru CailleretsPinot Noir more |
4/28/2024 - Peter Spijker Likes this wine: 91 pointsThe Jean-Marc Bouley Caillerets 2017 was quite closed, showing little fruit. The texture was nice and supple, but I missed some energy. It also didn’t really open up during the remainder of the evening. I had high hopes for this but it didn’t show the magic I was hoping for. |
