  Tasting Group Dinner - Le Montrachet & Red Burgs (La Belle Vie, Minneapolis): Unsurprisingly given the vintage, this had a very expressive nose and a palate that turned a bit thick and heavy with air. The palate features ripe, lush tropical fruit and lots of toasty oak. This was tasty but lacked the elegance and balance of the other wines in this flight.

  Montrachet & more (Drouhin, Jadot, Taittinger CdC, La Tache, Vogue, Leroy ...): Lovely nose offering fresh fruit, spice and a healthy dose of oak. While mid-weight, this stuck me as bordering on fat on the palate. Packed with fruit and oak, compact fruit expression, and then delivers a a killer finish. Initially this seemed to be hanging well with the other Montrachet, but upon closer inspection it lacked the pizzaz of the other wines.
