Dinner at Softbank Kitchen.
2004 Bonneau du Martray Corton-Charlemagne, en magnum - initially kinda closed, with a little mineral, flint, toast, and lemon. Opened up well after about 40 minutes. Still alive after 3 hours, with a little Chinese licorice.
2011 Joseph Drouhin Clos des Mouches Blanc, en magnum - very elegant and buttery.
Tesseron X.O. Exception Lot N°29 - pretty nice stuff from 1929...
2011 Arnaud Ente Meursault La Sève du Clos - much bigger and more toasty, with higher acidity. Showing buttery notes 3½ hours after opening.
1998 Jacques Prieur Musigny - opened for 6 hours prior to serving. Really sweet with black fruits. elegant, almost a little tea leaves.
1996 Royal Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos Blue Label - nutty, marmalade, dried tangerine peel, honey, sweet on the palate but comes with plenty of acidity, too.
