21 May 2011: Simple supper at home - made our favourite pork belly dish!
1999 Raveneau Chablis Montée de Tonnerre
Pale golden colour. A refreshing nose of lemon curd, fig and mineral nose, with toasty, nutty and slightly caramelised nuances. Weighty and creamy textured, much more spicy on the palate, and lively acidity. A wine still in its youth, drinking well today, with much more yet to come in 6-8+ years. 18/20
1990 Leroy Richebourg
Floral, very ripe red berries (a little roasted), mineral, cloves, sweet leather, smokey nose. Quite closed on the palate, requiring a little catching up. Beautifully proportioned and structured, still carrying its ripe tannin effortlessly. Rich and powerful. Finishes long. 18.5/20
