9/9/2009 Acker Auction/ BYO at Gilt Restaurant.
The auction market is back and the recession is over. Most of the lots I'm interested in buying near the low estimate end up selling for more than their high estimate. Some at near double. However, I drank very well!
89 Krug. Mmmm. Yummy. Great way to start! Toast steel minerals and all is well. Steve says
fewer bubbles than the cristal. A.
03 Ornellaia. JulieAnne says great example example of well used oak. Steve likes it. I find the finish a little hot, compared to the other bottles from the same case.. A-
93 Voerzio barolo bruante. Nice tar roses and ash.
82 Sauzet Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet. Mmmmmm. Awesome sunset.
97 Ramonet Montrachet. Very long and lithe silky minty good. Best '97 white burgundy I've tried.
91 Leflaive Chevallier Montrachet. David says butterscotch. Fascinating evolution. Turns tropical with great pineapple. John Kapon finds it too oaky and gives it 90. I say its better than that.
90 Roederer Cristal. Yum!!
04 Rousseau Ruchottes Chambertin. 04s may be ready. Great. Earth long. Nice balance.
Grade A.
64 Lafite Maginum. Classic Lafite nose. Just odd palate. Doesn't improve.
88 Ponsot Clos de la Roche. Mint and menthol. Light color drink up.
96 Leroy Meursault Perrieres. Lean racy goodness.
02 Gros Frerer Richebourg. Yummy!! Everyone sucks it down.
88 La Tache. Strange.
00 La Fleur de Gay. Awesome.
80 la Tache. Very. Odd. Not in good way.
88 Guigal Cote Rotie la Turque. Yay!!!
96 Ravaneau Chablis Blanchot. Julieanne guesses coche blind! That good.
89 Leroy Latricières-Chambertin. Mmmmm. Nose of the night. Lots of acids on the palate.
91 Roty Charmes Chambertin TVV. Little poopy. But good.
90 AF Gros Richebourg. Smells young. Powerful iron rust. Wonderful.
04 Marcassin 3 sisters pinot. Big and lots of alcohol with menthol. Clearly not from burgundy.
93 H Lignier Morey St Denis vv. Not liked. Dark and rich and very odd like an autobody shop.
97 Mugnier Chambolle Musigny Les Fuees. Nice.
64 Vincole de Bourgogne Musigny.
59 Grivot Clos Vougeot.
67 Palmer. Not bad.
