November Dinner at Bisato (Bisato Private Dining, Seattle): Tasted blind. A note of menthol, apples, pears, and young oak on the nose. The oak stays constant throughout the tasting. Nice balance and weight right from the start, the kind that normally suggests some age, so I guessed earlier vintages first. Shows Montrachet ripe notes of honey and baked apples and less vintage characteristics (such as 2018 petroleum). Young and in need of 6-8 years, though this was perfectly fine to drink today. Thank you, Bill. 97+

Monday Burgundy Cellar Visits - Albert Morot, Méo-Camuzet, and Ramonet (Cote d'Or): Tasting at the domaine. Apple, pear, baked apple, allspice and mint with so much more, seemingly both sweet and tart. Ripe with balance from start-to-middle, then structured and highly energetic middle-to-finish. Long, lingering finish. One of the best wines I have tasted this year.
