2009 Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos
4/21/2024 - Burgundy Bill wrote: 97 Points
Pale golden straw with a green tint… Another pristine bottle of Dauvissat… Tidal pool, iodine, marzipan, sour cream honey and citrus on the nose. Wow these wines are imortal. This bottle was a decades away from decline. The palate is quintessentially Dauvissat - a rippling limestone bench boiling to the surface of an ice cold glacier fed river bursting with dry extract. Broad, rich and precise with a hint of Côte de Beaune behind the quintessence of Chablis a true Grand Cru and one of the greatest white wines in the world.

2008 François Raveneau Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre
4/13/2024 - Burgundy Bill Likes this wine: 96 Points
Tidal pool, lime, sea breeze, cinnamon, and honey on the nose. On the palate this is immediately recognizable as Raveneau with that waxy round and spherical presence. Grand Cru intensity… slightly sweet on the attack and then the dam bursts… The acid is high, but it hits late followed by waves of citrus, limestone, river rocks… this wine keep building and building until it delivers a spicy ginger finale. God I love 2008 Rav - a true stunner and a great reminder to age your Raveneau!

1993 Christophe Roumier Ruchottes-Chambertin
4/3/2024 - Burgundy Bill Likes this wine: 93 Points
Cellared since release and shared by a generous friend. Perfectly mature burgundy. Sandalwood, dried rose pedals and red berries on the nose. Incredibly earthy, forest floor, and cherry with surprisingly grippy tannin that left the wine a little dry (will these ever fully resolve?). Not worth today’s premium, but a privilege to drink.
