Excellent CDR with a great potential. Still a bit young, but dinks well. Lovely wine.

2001 Pian Delle Vigne (Antinori) Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Belle surprise à chaque fois que j’ouvre une bouteille de ce Brunello à maturité qui en a encore sous le capot à donner. Nez épicé , réglisse, poivre blanc, su tabac, touche de cuir. Bouche délicieuse de corps moyen avec un beau fruit noir, des tannins fondus, bel équilibre et superbe longueur. 91-92

Very nice surprise and still feels younger then almost 20 years. Very expressive nose of spices, liquorice, white pepper, tobacco and a hint of leather. The now medium bodied palate has gorgeous fruit and balance, smooth tannins and nice length, beautiful bottle.

Seems muted today, but it still vibrant and quite young. A legend in making? Lovely

2015 Thibault Liger-Belair Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Le Clos du Prieuré Pinot Noir

A very nice, current-drinking red burgundy to enjoy without over thinking the bottle. A true step above most Bourgogne Rouge, this Liger-Belair offering brings the delightful subtle hand of the estate to a a basic but fruit driven wine. No unbalanced tannins or bouts of excessive forward fruit as with many Bourgogne Rouges from 2015. The main trait, oddly, is elegance without a lot of substance. Just as it seems like there is a definable fruit or other flavor trait, it gets lost in the inconsistent and occasionally watery melange. This is not a serious issue with a wine at this level and did not interfere with the pleasure of drinking, as long, once again, there was no effort to over think this wine. A bit overpriced in Stockholm but a great QPR in the retail market.

Slow owed for one and a half hours. Minimal bricking, minimal find sediment. Small sip upon opening w/lots of bright fruits. Little evolution over the course of the night. Nice secondaries of eaten leather. Traditional nose without any funk. Paired with Tri-tip and grilled brats. Enjoyed by novice and experienced palate tonight.
