    January 22, 2024 - Jadot (and Clair Dau) Chapelle-Chambertin Dinner with Thibault Gagey (Sepia - Chicago IL): Spice galore, you know you're in Vosne. ripe throughout, showing as much black fruit as red, lots here. A rare high-end 1996 that is showing its age, but in a wonderfully graceful way. At its peak,

    January 22, 2024 - Annual Jadot Dinner - this time with Thibault Gagey (Sepia - Chicago): Such a great Richebourg that it's hard to comprehend whcih grower/producer may have parted with this juice and provided to Jadot. One more reminder of how times have changed. I digress. Beautiful, classically Vosne aroma of black cherry laced with intense Asian spice and black tea. Excellent concentration with round, supple fruit that goes on and on. In the middle of a long peak drinking window.

    October 16, 2021 - Nice nose of red berries, forest notes and a hint of tomato. It opened up nicely after a few hours in the glass but was a bit behind the other wines tonight. Good acidity on the palate with notes of red berries, iron, and tart cherries. The palate was a bit thinner than the nose suggested. Good length.

    December 27, 2020 - Truly excellent showing, perfect bottle. Still so energetic, fresh and pure on red fruits & spices. Depth, multi layered complex and hedonistic. What a joy to taste this for Christmas.

    November 21, 2020 - Attractive nose, very inviting, open. DRC type nose in fact. Body slightly slim and acidity a little high - expressing the vintage. And a difficult food match perhaps. Well made wine.
