Kuki'o Wine Trip 2019; 9/22/2019-9/28/2019 (Champagne & Bordeaux): No notes but would say that the Perrieres character is more present than ‘09 character, weighing in favour of focus and purity I didn’t necessarily expect from the Maison. A high risk bottle but a pleasant surprise for sure, fresh, clean, and delicious with Perriers floral detail. 92 - 92.

White Burgs and Penfolds. Bellecour, Wayzata MN: A lovely citrus packed Perrieres. Like all our whites tonight, drunk leisurely over hours and continued to improve. Very good rather than great, yet very pleasing. Still quite youthful.

Served blind: ripest of the group some tropical notes and round, not as mineral but still really good. Very 09, a bit fatter and flabbier than the others tonight (which turned out to be all 10's).
In the end, this is high quality wine, but it was universally picked as the weakest of a very strong flight. If served on its own would have probably been lauded.
The vintage dominates here, 09 ripe tropical notes, so pair accordingly.
