  • (100% Syrah, 13.5% Alkohol) Rubinrot, praktisch keine Alterstöne. Der Duft ist sortentypisch, Leder, steinige Noten, Eisen, Blut, dunkler Tabak, kühl im Ausdruck, tiefgründig. Im Gaumen zugänglich, auf den Punkt gereift, die Tannine sind gut verpackt, die Säure belebt, der Wein zeigt Schliff und Rasse, wirkt trotz viel Druck nicht überladen, grosse Harmonie, wunderbare Länge. Das ist schön jetzt, wird sein Niveau noch 5-10 Jahre halten, es gibt aber keinen Grund, den Wein weiter zu lagern. Ab sofort ein Hochgenuss, bis 2033 geniessen.

  • PNP, consumed over 2 hours. This needed some time to unfurl, and there was some sediment, so I recommend decanting next bottle. Black/purple color. Black fruits, plums, tar and anise on the nose. Very young and fairly extracted palate, deep fruit, plush mouth feel with grippy tannins and moderate acidity. The finish is drying and long, with a juiciness that lingers. This comes across as stern and austere, even with 2.5 hours of air.

  • Dinner at Richard's and Anita place on december 17, some short notes of the spectacular line-up: After the babies Montrose 1990 and sassicaia 2016, this wine lost its babyfat. Everything in it: fruit, earthy, a little animal notes, good acidity and nicely integrated tannins. great wine.

    (PAVILLON Chapoutier) Odds and Ends Dear Friends, A few Friday odds and ends while I’m en-route to an inspiring destination... Have a nice weekend everyone! NV J.M. Gremillet Brut “Grande Reserve” EXTREMELY LIMITED From a small independent grower, this is quite fabulous for the tariff and very difficult to find. For our price, this has to be one of the last great buys in top-end NV Champagne. Recently disgorged, we have a price that is about the same as at the cellar door: 2005 Chapoutier Ermitage “Le Pavillon” (WA95-98) I like this wine better than the Ermite in 2005 but what do I know... 2005 Chapoutier Ermitage Le Pavillon 1.5lt 2004 Bruno Giacosa Barolo “Falletto” 1.5lt - This set of magnums is authenticated and directly from Giacosa's cellar. EXTREMELY RARE Here’s the situation with 2004 Giacosa magnums - there used to be 500 magnums of this for the US in each vintage, not anymore. Only 100 of the 2004 for the entire country and various restaurants in NY would take the whole lot - that leaves around 24-36 magnums for retail (for the entire US consumer base). That, unfortunately, adds up to extreme rarity, unscrupulous gray marketing, counterfeit and extreme cost in a vintage that has so much pent up demand that the sky is probably the limit on the eventual value of these. In some ways, this is like the craze on 2005 Roumier or Vogue and this set of magnums may end up with similar auction appeal: Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Champ2500 Rhone8830 Rhone8840 Italy7110
