  • The Petrus of Italy? You can understand the comparisons, given both are 100% merlot, small production, price tag and unique terroir, vineyard location. However, given the longevity of Petrus and consistency for over a century, itโ€™s hard to put it up there alongside the Pomerol great. One thing that is undeniable when tasting masseto is how polished the wine is. You can taste immediately itโ€™s a wine of high quality, a beautifully crafted wine. No expense spared in achieving the best with what they have at their disposal. The label and price tag perhaps have pushed it into a category whereby demand is more label driven, but thereโ€™s no doubting itโ€™s quality. . Calling a spade a spade - this was pure infanticide - and this bottle was opened far too young. But to be frank itโ€™s tough to find good provenance older examples, and for a winery thatโ€™s only been producing for 30 years (and who themselves have only a few bottles of older vintages in their cellar library) you often finding yourself opening bottles far too early. As with Petrus, these wines really benefit from a good 20 years of aging. And Iโ€™m sure theyโ€™ll keep getting better and better. It feels harsh to score this given its youthfulness, but on this showing - it was powerful and full of red fruit, berries with a touch of vanilla and soft round mouth fell. Luxurious is a word that came to mind. Slightly on the more lighter style compared to other vintages, but this bottle should be afforded a lot more time to really show itself. Modern style, polished and classy. 93 pts . ๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป๐Ÿ”ป Have you ever tried Masseto? What has been your experience?

  • Coche-Dury: is one of those producers that consistently lives up the hype and the price tag. Up and down the scale from regular Bourgogne and Aligote, to village lieu-dit which are premier cru quality, premier cruโ€™s which are grand cru in all but name and then Corton Charlie ๐Ÿ˜. Consistency over many decades as well, and given the issues you have opening bottles of wine burgundy of a certain era, Coche bottles are nowhere near as badly affected - so you can buy with confidence you wonโ€™t be pouring it down the drain like with so many bottles of other prominent producers. . 2004 is one of our favourite vintages of white burgundy to drink right now. Utterly gorgeous wines. One of those classic vintages where reds and whites are poles apart in quality. The whites are really singing ๐ŸŽถ offering balance, poise, soft umami like qualities with a zingy backbone of acidity. . One of the things that has always amazed us with the best wines from Coche, is their ability to exude a weightless characteristic whilst at the same time completely taking over all your senses. Soaring aromatics, incredible complexity, but as light as a serene ballerina tiptoeing across your palate. . This Perrieres 04 is magical, if you get a chance to taste it then take it with both hands. Persistent, incredibly precise, classic coche. Texturally phenomenal and just a great wine. 98pts .

  • Throwback to some Grand Cru Gevrey Chambertin. 2009 Mazis, Hospices de Beaune, from Le Moine - deep, brooding, concentrated. Spicy and dark fruits, sexy. Lovely juice. 94 pts. 1996 Ruchottes Chambertin, Mugneret Gibourg - disappointing for this wine and producer, slightly one dimensional and a bit tired. Not even on the same playing field compared to more recent vintages. (Post 05). 89 pts. #burgundy#mugneretgibourg#hospicesdebeaune#mazischambertin#ruchotteschambertin#gevreychambertin#winelovers#winestagram#wines#burgundywines#grandcru#burgundylover#sommelier

  • 2000 Chateau Lynch-Bages, Pauillac, Bordeaux, France. โ€ข Lynch-Bages is one of the most underrated chateaux when it comes to the 1855 classification of Bordeaux wines, belying its Fifth Growth status and producing outstanding wines year on year. Managed by the well-respected Cazes family, Chateau Lynch-Bages has transformed into a global brand with a strong following in Asia, Europe and the United States. Lynch-Bages benefits from an established name and brand as Jean-Michael Cazes first introduced Lynch-Bages to Hong Kong in the 1980s and it has been served First Class on Cathay Pacific for over 20 years. According to last year's โ€˜Liv-ex Classificationโ€™, which attempted to mimic the Bordeaux 1855 classification by ranking chateaux based purely on market prices, the modern-day Lynch-Bages sits comfortably among the Second Growths - a telling reflection of the extent to which the brand has developed in recent years. โ€ข Deep purple in colour with a pronounced blackberry, blackcurrent and slight savoury notes on the nose. Palate is full bodied, dry with smooth tannins, mountains of dark fruit into deep cedar wood and leather. Lovely finish to this 19 year old beauty. โ€ข #LynchBages #ChateauLynchBages #Pauillac #PauillacWine #Bordeaux #BDโ €#GrandCru #France #FineWine #BordeauxWines #BordeauxWine #2000Vintage #2000 #Sommelier #WineOclock #WineLover #WineTasting #WinesOfInstagram #wine๐Ÿท #WineTime #๐Ÿท#Winestagram #InstaWine #WinePorn #LoveWine #Luxury #RedWine #็บข้…’ #่‘ก่„้…’
