Domaine de Montille, Pommard 1er Cru Les Pézerolles 2016 - straight lined and mineral, aromatic nose but not currently generous on the palate. Some light red fruit but very delicate.. for now.

Lalou must have cast a magic spell in 2001 as her wines across the board are absolutely knockout and right now more approachable than the 2002s. However it must be said that this Musigny has a long long life ahead of it. Spellbinding but a powerful, firm finish, hinted at a continuing upward trajectory for this 🦄 . Sensational wine.

When you prepare for a Bordeaux blind tasting feast 🍷🍇 • @chateaupontetcanet ![2018 Chateau Lafite Rothschild, Pauillac, Bordeaux, France
•
One of the world’s most beloved fine wine names, Chateau Lafite Rothschild has released a special label for its 2018 vintage to celebrate its 150 year anniversary. A hot air balloon has been added to the landscape of the estate, with two women in the foreground taking a moment to admire the balloon.
Lafite’s deification in Asia has led to its demand skyrocketing in the past decade. It’s worth remembering that Lafite’s eye watering price tag is the result of no other than the wine’s extraordinary quality.
Cult Wines take you back to what makes Lafite, the first of the 1855 first growths, a truly great wine. Click the link in our profile to explore the chateau’s rich history, unique terroir, well protected winemaking traditions and the new generation behind the brand.

This bottle encapsulated that philosophy.
.
Les Vignots lies on the upper slope in Pommard, a lowly village lieu-dit. Generally known for power and finesse, as well as minerality.
Lalou’s plot is just 1.25 hectares. Producing 3-4,000 bottles.
The 2009 vintage is known for being ripe, fleshy, even showy. A Hedonistic style that is sometimes let down by a lack of freshness due to lower than usual acidity.
This bottle from Leroy, represented everything you’d have expected but elevated to a stratospheric level.
Exotic nose. Slightly reductive at first, this blew away after an hour of being open. Gave way to beautifully clean aromatics, Pristine, bright, a twirling fusion of stemmy notes, with wild forest berries and dark cherry.
On the palate, it was a Broody, dark, powerful, rich cacophony of flavour. Silky as silk can be. The finish was firm and spicy, with a solid streak of acidity which brought it all together.
Somehow Lalou has ripped up the rule books when it comes to vineyard classification. Village level wines from under appreciated appellations become power hitters and stars in their own right. You only have to look at what she has done with Auxey Duresses and the magic she conjures up from aligote to see that.
Are her wines the pinnacle of winemaking in burgundy? Does anyone on the planet produce equivalent level wines with Pinot, Chardonnay and aligote?
Of course a lot of you will scream the names DRC, Roumier, Rousseau and many more. But if you take away the jewels in the crown, ie the grand crus, is there any other producer who attains this level of complexity, power, depth, finesse and electricity from village level terroir?!
