2017 Vincent and Sophie Morey Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge:
Ripe and full bodied with extroverted cherry fruit, licorice, cinnamon, tea, and subtle earth nuance. Pleasant enough, though ultimately pretty boring. The nose showed more complexity than the palate with smoke and truffle notes.

Sunday dinner at home with a dry-aged Snake River Farms bone-in ribeye.
1996 Ch. Malescot St. Exupery, Margaux.
Expressive nose with floral and baking spice notes. The palate is deliciously washed with red berries; sanded leather notes; tart ripe fruit flavors that linger forever. Soulful cool-weather fruit that defines a great Left Bank vintage.

And help it did.
Don’t make the same mistake, this wine is begging for air.

I’ve always found the 1990 HB to be underrated. How was the 1998 LMHB?
Just needs a few more years but it’s all there

Made pizza last night. Opened alongside: 2014 Occhipinti Cerasuolo di Vittoria Grotte Alte
Didn’t love the wine in current form. Needs time or something.
Pizza was good.

Have been passing by this thread for about 8 months now. Had some good wines in last week to share here— first 1989 Loire fest and then a small dinner at Brad Kane’s for Manuel Camblor’s visit.

Domaine de Montille’s whites are very underrated. If you are into lighter reductive more mineral driven expressions of white Burgundy these have some amazing relative value. They are also bottled under Diam so you can get more sleep while you let them sleep

This wine is insane… really firm acidity, minerality, pretty floral, and round ripe stone fruit… Probably the best value white wine I’ve had in a long time… “buy now” for sure.

The base Soalheiro Alvarinho is also really good.
