Dinner at Caprice.
2001 Ramonet Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Boudriotte - have I ever mentioned that I love Ramonet's whites? I do. Even though I've had better bottles of this wine before, I was still happy to drink this. Nose of lemon, minerals, flint, toast, hint of sweet butter. Initially acidity was medium to high on the palate, then turned a little more ripe and tart in the middle, only to really smooth out after more aeration.
2000 Dugat-Py Mazis-Chambertin - well...I was disappointed by 2000 Dugat-Py, again. Yes, I know it's not a great vintage, but I honestly expected better from these guys. Nose of mushrooms, red fruits, a little bit of forest, a little muddy, mint, smoke and grilled meats.
My last bottle of Dugat-Py was a little disappointing, too...and I bought the two bottles together.
