Dinner at Locanda dell'Angelo.
2010 Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières - nice acidity here. Flinty with a little lemon on the nose.
1985 Faiveley Chambertin Clos de Beze - served without decanting. Very clean, with sweet fruit and a little leather. Nice and mature, very smooth.
2015 Guigal La Doriane - really ripe, flinty, with tropical banana and stone fruits. Very rich and sweet on the palate - almost chewable. 14.9% alcohol, supposedly...
2000 Branaire-Ducru - smoky with leather notes. Solid with no surprises.
1975 Massandra Rose Muscat - having tasted some of Massandra's dessert wines before, I knew that this was gonna be deathly sweet. At 24.3% sugar, this has easily 50% more sugar than something like Yquem... Pure honey and sugarcane, with a hint of savory notes like salty plum (話梅).
In glass.
