Dinner at a private kitchen.
2000 Henri Giraud Fût de Chêne Collection - nice and caramelized nose, yeasty, toasty. Rich on the palate, too.
Jacques Selosse Les Carelles, dégorgée à 10 Avril 2013 - fragrant nose, floral and almost perfume-like. This was more elegant. Initially flatter on the palate compared to the Giraud. Dry on the palate with a little ripeness.
2001 Ramonet Bâtard-Montrachet en magnum - nose was initially a little toasty, then with time became buttery, with marmalade notes. Palate was ripe at first but remained dry. Much later on the nose showed plenty of lemon and toasty corn.
1970 Torres Gran Coronas Reserva - a little minty with nice fruit. A little acidic.
1970 L'Evangile - a little medicinal, smoky, still some fruit here, with a little forest notes and minty.
1982 Vieux Château Certan - cedar and woody notes, some sweet fruit, smoky with pencil lead. Later on nose turned medicinal.
1983 Diamond Creek Volcanic Hill - a bit medicinal and bretty, minty, a little farmy and smoky. Acidity was surprisingly high.
Marco Sara Mùfe di Piculit - very grapey and raisiny, honey, grass jelly (仙草), nutty, and a little acetone. Alcohol was a little sharp here.
