Tucson Lunch Bunch En Magnum dinner: Beautiful wine en magnum. Served alongside the '08 Bouchard Chevy. This bottle was pristine and at the top of its game. No hint of oxidation. It seems as if it will last at least another 10 years. Rich, balanced...excellent fruit, fresh and great finish. Most preferred this over the '08, only because of the added complexity of age. Both wines were great.

Grand Jury du Vin - Republic of Georgia; 11/1/2023-11/9/2023 (Republic of Georgia then stopover in Paris and Dijon): En Jeroboam. Not premoxed but a bit one dimensional. Exceptional concentration, very ripe yellow fruit, rich and deeply toned, peach and dry apricot, a lot of honey. A good demonstration where a great red vintage may not be so great for the whites. Slightly lacking acidity. The time has not been kind.

(Mostly) Burgundy Dinners with Friends; 4/21/2022-4/22/2022 (Chicago, IL): Great color and fill, so I was optimistic. Still delicately floral with earth, apple, white pepper, and anise notes. Good weight, better length. In a very good place now.

Beautiful, lemony. More full-bodied, less precise than typical Chevalier. Batard-like. But lovely juice.
