Lovely fall day even if it's still summer, dinner was grilled pork
chops and king trumpet mushrooms, plus roasted vegetables and salad. Wine was the 2007 Bart "Les Echezots" Marsannay, and was maybe the best Marsannay I ever remember. Lovely sappy cherry fruit, smoke, and earth. Nice from the get-go and it kept getting better through night. Good weight and depth for a Marsannay (really, quite fine period, I'd have been happy if this was a $40 Gevrey). Spice and sandalwood with time. I picked up one more today, my wine budget is busted or I would order more. A-/B+ Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.* |
