Dinner at Caprice Bar.
2014 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly - lovely wine, with a big and explosive, toasty nose.
1995 Guigal Château d'Ampuis - decanted for 1½ hours prior to serving. Lovely nose, with minty, eucalyptus, and floral notes. Higher acidity and leaner than expected, with less sweetness on the palate. Didn't have the same power and richness I had expected, so slightly disappointing.
2010 Clos Rougeard Brézé - apparently this bottle was opened 4 days ago. Very fragrant nose, with a little stone fruit, almost a little acetone, and pretty ripe.
2009 Dagueneau Buisson Renard, en magnum - apparently this was opened 5 days ago. Classic nose of green apple and muscat grapes, and a little pungent. Someone thought it smelled a little like durian, but nah... It's lovely and pure sauvignon blanc.
2002 Coche-Dury Meursault - just.beautiful. Classic big, toasty nose. A little buttery.
