With sourdough scallion pancake, stirfry with cabbage/leek/Chinese sausage/ peppers, and mustard greens with oyster sauce
2005 Trimbach €śCuvee Frederic Emile€ť Riesling This is pretty ripe and round for CFE, peach and pineapple, some petrol, ready to go. B 2001 Trimbach €śCuvee Frederic Emile€ť Riesling Color was a little darker than I expected, but racy and young on nose and palate. Petrol, citrus, herbs, with long stony finish. A- Duck with braised vegetables (I accidentally omitted main one!), the forgotten carrots, salad 2002 Catherine and Claude Marechal Savigny-Les-Beaune VV Red and black cherries and raspberries, smoke, herbs, a pointe and delicious. I never see Marechal any more. A-/B+ Oysters, halibut with potatoes, spinach 2013 Collier Saumur Blanc Correct but not especially exciting Chenin, some wax and wool around apple fruit, good acids. B Pork chops, delicata squash, brussels sprouts, mushrooms, salad 2007 Jadot €śNarbantons€ť Savigny-Les-Beaune Fully mature, lighter styled, red cherry and some Earl Grey tea notes, moderate acids, resolved tannin. B Our Zoom call was featuring a couple of Jura wines from Pelican (Angerville), so Betsy graciously made a version of chicken with vin jaune (a blend of Saumur Blanc and Amontillado substituting), with dried morels and fresh shiitake/cremini. Delicious! 2018 Domaine du Pelican Trois Cepages Arbois Light, bright and primary, ok but Id rather have a similarly priced (or cheaper) Cru Beaujolais I think. B-/B 2018 Domaine du Pelican Ouille Savagnin Arbois Not oxidative, bright and racy, herby and minerally, this is fun and Id definitely buy again. B++ Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C drinkable. 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. |
