83 Lafite, 06 Roumier, 10 Coche-Dury and more

2010 Coche-Dury Bourgogne Blanc
Pale lemon yellow. Some apples, citrus, minerals, subdued nose. Fresh acidity, fruity, bit tight, minerals, refreshing, lovely BB. 88

1983 Château Lafite Rothschild
Bottom neck fill. Ruby, thin garnet rim. Cedar, tobacco, leather, cassis, minerals, very elegant and nuanced, floral, mint touch, gorgeous nose, needs a bit of time to open. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fruity, rounded, little bit acidic maybe but gets fruitier with air, detailed again, elegant, very long indeed. 95

1990 Camille Giroud Vosne-Romanée
Ruby with broad brick rim, orange hue. Scented, comes up of the glass, dark berries, sous bois, coffee and burnt notes, seems a bit toasted from oak on the nose. Fresh and high acidity, ripe tannins, fruity, rounded, bit grippy texture, slightly hollow mid palate, long but ever so slightly drying. Maybe not the most typical Vosne, but impressive non the less. 91

2006 Roumier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras
Bright ruby.  Red berries and a slight herbal note that blew off after half an hour, youthful nose and lacked the ripeness of the last bottle and the floral notes of a bottle before that one again. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fruity and lively, bit lean and again lacked the fuller and more complete feel of the last two bottles. Fairly long. 91

40 years of Dom Perignon, meet the aperitifs!

Every vintage of Dom Perignon for 40 years, 1962-2002. And later on, two more bottles of Cristal (we had 30 years of Cristal a few weeks back) to make 40 years of Cristal as well (if not every vintage). This means there is actually only 7 or so vintages of Dom Perignon, not tasted at this event.

As some felt there might be a little to few wines to try, we were given a mix of different aperitifs.

1975 Dom Perignon;
Let's try bottle variations, this will come later on as well! Golden, no bubbles, butter, minerals, nuts, oxidized apples, elegant texture, mousse almost gone, good acidity, a bit lean and slightly dry, OK length, not optimal bottle. 89

2006 Comte Lafon Montrachet;
Opened nine days! Still minerals, lime, apples, quite refreshing, feels like decanted for a few hours only. Fresh acidity, lively and playful, stunning length.... Must have been amazing to follow during those days. 96

1999 Bollinger Vielle Vignes Francaises;
Pale golden, toasted bread, yeast, minerals, doesn't give too much on the nose. Elegant mousse, refined acidity, vinous, beautiful balance, subtle, subdued, gorgeous length. 95

1964 Roederer Cristal
Another nine days bottle, golden, still a fine Champagne, but oxidized (after beeing opened for such a length) and good enough still, and a long length. 88

2002 Marie-Noelle Ledru Ambonnay Grand Cru;
Pale lemon, tiny bubbles, yellow fruit and a touch of strawberries. Fresh acidity, elegant mousse, lively, transparent, good length. One of Frank Herfjord's secrets..... 92

05 Pousse d'Or Corton

2005 Domaine de la Pousse d'Or, Corton Grand Cru Clos du Roi;
Ruby, closed first, lean, after one hour in decanter, opening up, roses and red berries, very pure, gorgeous nose, perfumed. Stunning freshness, lively acidity, lean body but powerfull flavours, very long, delicate finish. My best red from Corton! 93

04 Carillon Puligny Perrieres

2004 Carillon Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrieres;
Pale golden, not too intense nose, some butter, same on the palate, but explodes into a beautiful mineraly aftertaste, very long. 92

02 Jadot Puligny

2002 Louis Jadot Puligny-Montrachet;
Pale golden, fat and quite full bodied for Puligny, fresh acidity, fatty and buttery texture, smoky finish. 89

04 Cathiard NSG

2004 Sylvain Cathiard Nuits-St.-Georges;
Pale bright ruby, needed air to open, after an hour decanted, peppered strawberries, pure elegance and almost lacking the herbs of the vintage, refreshing now, will last. 88

08 Ramonet Bourgogne Blanc

2008 Ramonet Bourgogne Blanc;
Pale golden, not very intense nose, some minerals and apples. Fresh acidity, more intense palate, slightly rough texture, like chewing it, good length. 84

4 Chefs, matching food and wine.....

This tasting was held by Wine Spectator with four famous chefs preparing the food, and one of the other chefs should match it with wine, and this is also done by Thomas Matthews, excecutive editor of Wine Spectator. Interesting to try, and interesting to see how they can hit and sometimes misses. But with José Andrés comment:'-When you eat, you eat, when you drink, you drink, why match?' you see the kind of attitude that is all about the ego of the chef, and who cares about the custommer.

As a restaurant customer, what you drink is normally as important as the meal itself. Anyone driving and sits at a nice restaurant drinking water, knows how utterly boring even the best dishes get to be. But, do José Andrés really mean it?


Charlie Trotter:
Terrine of Tripe and Maine Lobster with Wild Mushroom Jus and Saffron

Daniel Bouloud's wine:
1993 Viña Tondonia Rioja Reserva White;
Golden, the typical slight oxidation, minerals, oxidized apples, low acidity, a touch rustic finish, still one of the fresher bottles I've had. 86

Thomas Matthews' wine:
2009 Paul Hobbs Richard Dinner Vineyard, Sonoma Mountains Chardonnay;
Pale lemon, slight popcorn, flinty minerals, some flowers, good acidity, fatty texture, good length. 89

To sort of waste the lobsters delicate fragrance with all these ingredients is a bit strange to me, even if the onions gives it freshness and liven it up, the saffron over-shadows the aftertaste. The texture of the dish on the other hand is excellent.

Viña Tondonia complements it nicely on flavours, but barely, with a bit more acidity it would work nicely. The Paul Hobbs works even better on aromas, but the minerality of the wine drowns the allready exhausted lobster even more, and Emeril Lagasse finds it to heavy as well. I can't say I disagree.



José Andrés:
Jamon Iberico de Bellota"Fermin"with Salmon Tartar and Trout Roe

Charlie Trotter's wine;
2006 Soter Vineyards Willamette Valley Brut Rosé; (Sparkling)
Pale pink with small bubbles, artificial strawberries, elegant mousse, OK acidity, short and lean, if refreshing. 75

Thomas Matthews' wine;
Champagne Barons de Rothschild Brut NV;
Pale lemon, tiny bubbles, brioch and apples, elegant mousse, fine acidity, refreshing. 87

Fantastic dish, salty and elegant, the Iberico giving texture and a slightly smoked taste, even nutty, then the roe exploding with licquid and salt, with the salmon tartar dampening the effect being a bridge between the two. The Soter is not to bad on the flavour match, but has no chance otherwise, it feels metallic and lean and just a bit to dry, you need some sweetness with all the salt. Rothschild Champagne works well indeed, blending the flavours of the wine and dish into a new flavour picture, even if a slightly fatter bodied Champagne but without more acidity would probably do even better. How about a Charta Riesling?



Emeril Lagasse:
Stuffed Pig Trotter with Apple-Brussel Sprout Salad and Tangerine Brown Butter Vinaigrette

José Andrés' wine:
Antonio Barbadillo Olorose Jerez Dulce Amoroso San Rafael NV;
Deep amber, heavy minerals, some salt, oxidized. Fresh acidity, sweetness balances well, good length, softer style Oloroso. 88

Thomas Matthew's wine:
2009 Guigal Condrieu;
Pale lemon yellow, lime, minerals, elegant nose. Acidity keeps playing throughout the taste curve, even if never feeling fresh, as always with white Rhône, I'm confused. 85-92?

A bit too stuffed I'm affraid, heavy texture, flavours a bit bland and somehow confusing, to much going on, and in no particular direction. Luckily the vinaigrette is easy going, and even if vinaigrette's normally manages to overshadow everything else completely, this one was refreshing to the otherwise too heavy and compact dish. The sprout is slightly refreshening things up as well, but goes terribly with the wine, absolutely awfull, to green and harsh. The Oloroso working well flavor wise, but overshadows, it's too intense. The Guigal works with the spiciness of the dish, and somehow the acidity that feels like it isn't there manages, just.....



Daniel Bouloud:
Rabbit Porchetta with Chorizo, Porcini, Argula and Hazelnut

Emeril Lagasse's wine:
2009 Joseph Drouhin Morey-St.-Denis;
Ruby, easy. fragrant, strawberries and a touch of spices. Elegant flavours, good acidity, ripe tannins, oak shines through in the finish. 87

Thomas Matthews' wine:
2001 Bodegas Roda Rioja Cirsion;
Deep ruby, dark plums, blueberries, vanilla and licorice. Rich Rioja, towards Baigorri de Garage, but not as complex. Fresh acidity, tannins soft, vanilla in the aftertaste, rich and still elegant, long. 90-91
This dish was exceptional on the balance between fresh and lively, refined in flavours and texture. Very elegant, complex, gorgeous flavours, how you needed to have all the elements of the dish in your mouth at once, or something would be missing. Andrés stated '-Amazing dish.' and Trotter said '-Delicious.' and I can't disagree. Superb. The Drouhin falls totally apart with this dish, doesn't stand a chance, it's totally over shadowed, the Roda works well, maybe on the verge of lean together with the food, but only maybe.

Then Andrés came up with something genious, I'have never heard anybody mention this before. '-Adding ingredient's to a dish, can alter it, even if a small, or bigger amount, it can lift or ruin it. (nothing new so far) It's the same with wine match, a sip, a mouthfull, just wetting the lips, makes the match different.'

So, the Roda, small sip, with the dish, became mineraly, earthy, blending nuances and matching delicately with the dish (still Bouloud's) Bigger sip, more fruit dominated, complement each other, works well, if not as great as the smaller sip.

Thank's to the four chefs and to Wine Spectator for arranging this event, this was my second tasting of this style, and so much better than the one in 2008!

09 Grivot Clos de Vougeot

2009 Jean Grivot. Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru;
Ruby, closed nose, just strawberries trying to show. Fresh acidity, quite lively palate, oak feels on the outside, ripe tannins, good length. There should be potential here. 91

09 Roumier Morey-St.-Denis

2009 G.Roumier, Morey-St.-Denis, 1er Cru Clos de la Bussière;
Ruby, more floral and nuanced, strawberries, touch of mint and spice, "richer" and more rounded Pinot, elegant acidity, ripe tannins, long. 91

09 Tollot-Beaut Corton Bressandes

2009 Tollot-Beaut, Corton Bresandes Grand Cru;
Ruby, floral, strawberries, touch of herbs, elegant acidity, ripe tannins, just a touch of the slight rusticity I associate with this vineyard, good length. 89-90

09 Clos des Ducs

2009 Marquis d'Angerville, Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Ducs;
Ruby, ripe strawberries, some barrel notes, spices and red fruits hiding in the back, intriguing nose. Fresh acidity, lovely body and texture, ripe tannins, cinamon, lovely acidity string through the tasting curve, long and very elegant finish. 93

07 Les Clos

2007 J. Moreau & FilsChablis Grand Cru Les Clos;

Straw yellow, minerals, lime, focused and narrow wine. Lively and fairly high acidity, at least it feels high with the wines tightness for the moment, long length. 92

92 Montille

1992 Montille Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens;

Ruby, floral, mint, herbs, green and vegetal. Those of you thinking 04 Burgundy is vegetal, should try this one. Unripe strawberries getting more intense with air, lean and acidic style. A bit short fruit with acidity lingering on, this is not for everyone. 89

By this state I fell of the wagon considering the exact menu, but somewhere around here we had a delicious game and chanterelle dish, Norway's best food and restaurant critic RR probably have all the details.

Private dinner at Pontet-Canet, Part II

2004 Comte Lafon, Meursault 1er Cru Charmes;

Again they hit spot on, on both producer and vineyard, this showed lemon yellow, gorgeous nose, focused with lime, minerals, some flint, elegant style of Meursault, fresh acidity, pure, refined and with a very long length, superb. Alfred was worried that he had served the wrong sort of wine when he found out we loved white Bordeaux, but with such a white Burgundy, it's very hard to complain.

2001 Château Pontet-Canet;

Decanted for 4 hours, elegant nose, staring to show signs of evolution, leather, tobacco, cassis, classic Pauillac. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, balanced, stunning 01 Bordeaux, and I love them, very long length.

1996 Château Pontet-Canet;

Decanted more than four hours, some figs, cassis, cigars, dark fruits, pure and evolving beautifully, my first 96 Pontet-Canet, fresh acidity, ripe tannins, starting to give away, very long length. Drinking beautifully now (but decant it), but will last much longer, if I had any, I would save it. A beauty.

1996 Château d'Yquem;

Golden colour, botrytis, pineapple and apricots, so much fresher than the last bottles I have tasted of this vintage, and more refined as well, a difference between demi's and full bottles seems to be detected as well, feeling more pure and gorgeously textured than the latest bottles (demi's (that have been slightly rough, if you can ever call an Yquem that)), and this with an exceptionally long length. Stunning with the raspberries next to it.

I thank Melanie and Alfred for an absolutely unforgettable private evening in Pauillac. And the night sky here is as black as in the Norwegian mountains, I hope I will be able to show them.

99 Leroy Bourgogne Blanc

1999 Leroy SA Bourgogne Blanc;

Golden colour, some tropical and mineral notes, not very intense. Needs time to open, gets fuller with air, evolving nicely, drink soon, fresh acidity, almost flinty finish. Some bitterness. 86

02 Henri Gouges NSG

2002 Henri Gouges, Nuits-St-Georges;

Watery ruby, some strawberries and spices on the nose, not very pronounced. Lean body, luckily more flavors on the palate, fresh acidity, ripe tannins, and feels on the tannic side for a Burgundy, good balance and length. 87-88

05 Le Moine

2005 Lucien le Moine Bourgogne Blanc;

Golden, massive nose, oaky and very ripe fruit, almost tropical and sweet. Fat texture and towards low acidity, big and flabby feel, smoky finish. 78
