We lost one Ponsot to premox/taint and the other was very good. Very precise line of fruit with tension and minerality and fascinating aromatics.

Ravenau was nothing short of outstanding !

Lignier outstanding and again, a shunned producer by some that delivers in older bottles.

Collection Bellenum was gritty and average. Too much development.

Both Clericos flawed. One corked one perhaps so ( will try the other again 2mrw )

Conterno is amazing. Though perhaps more aeration required.

Margaux for me tonight! Pipping Lafite.

PX amazing. Madeira great.

D'Yquem 1970. Wow-wee!

Zind Humbrecht almost equally so in its style!
