White - Sparkling
N.V. Savart Champagne Premier Cru L'Accomplie Extra Brut Vieilles Vignes
89 points
Magnum. Signature Savart aromatics but on the light and watery side. 89
White - Sparkling
2012 Henri Giraud Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs
91 points
1636. Savory and mineral over the slight hint of white fruit that is only revealed with air. Not my favorite style and different from the signature oxidative house style. 91
White
1999 Marc Colin et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs-Gain
Made by PYCM. Sunny fruit but don't see the style resemblance. NR
White
2002 François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons
90 points
This bottle is incredibly tight with yoghurt flavors and very little house style. Overripe fruit underneath. I think it is a phase for the vintage that they are just awkward now; perhaps time will help. 90
White - Sweet/Dessert
2006 Joh. Jos. Prüm Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Beerenauslese Lange Goldkapsel
93 points
Orange color with orange flowers, honey and lifted aromatics. 93
White
2009 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Chassagne-Montrachet Les Ancegnières
Did not ever open up either. Little white fruit or PYCM aromatics. NR
White
2013 Domaine Roulot Meursault Les Luchets
92 points
One of the more approachable whites of the evening, very good vintage acidity and a decent village Meursault wine. 92
White
2014 Jean-Claude Ramonet Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Boudriotte
93 points
Third time tasting this wine and it has turned out much better. Opulent with lightly electric house style on the palate. 93
White
2015 Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet
91 points
Quite ripe, definition of fruit could be better. 91
Red
1982 Château La Tour Haut-Brion
93 points
Classic LMHB on the nose (across the street), clear 82ness, high toned acidity, with air very opulent and clean aromatics. Somewhat dirty towards the end palate, not sure if bottle variation? 94 nose, 93 palate. 93
Red
1996 Château Margaux
94 points
Silky, but the 96 acidity is very present. Less strong in showing that last bottle, decanted too short, but easily WOTN. 94+
Red
2003 Domaine Bertheau (Pierre et François) Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes
91 points
One of the better bottles. Still young, woody, compact jammy sweet like sugar-coated hawthorns. 91
Red
2015 Sylvain Cathiard Chambolle-Musigny Les Clos De L'orme
91 points
Minty and cool which is a surprise for this vintage. Neither very reductive or a very Cathiard showing. 91
Red
2010 Bernard Dugat-Py Gevrey-Chambertin Très Vieilles Vignes - Coeur de Roy
flawed
Something off with this bottle.
Red
2020 Wasenhaus Spätburgunder
90 points
Especially cool from both vintage and altitude. Lightly herbal. Opulent but thin. Perhaps better in one or two days. 90-91+

White
2015 Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Vergers

Almost too ripe. In the face warm fruit. I did not stay long enough for this to open up. 90
White
2002 Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Vergers Clos Saint-Marc
91 points
Also ripe, similar to the 02 Raveneau in taste with yoghurt and coiled fruit. 91?
