Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Patrick and I drove down to Meursault on Sunday and spent two nights in burgundy. On Monday we had a tour of Louis Jadot which lasted two and a half hours in which we tried at least 12 different Jadot wines. There were several highlights. Then we dined at Le Soufflot where we enjoyed an excellent meal with a 2014 Raveneau Chablis Chapelot and a 2017 Felettig Chambolle Gruenchers. The Raveneau had plenty of time in hand and improved through the night while the Felettig was outstanding (tap on the photo and it should straighten):

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
We then drove to Bordeaux yesterday where Alex served us one white and two red wines blind. The first white wine we did not get but turned out to be a delightfully light semillon based wine from Fronsac that Alex said cost only €8. The second wine we thought was a right bank Bordeaux merlot, with plenty of up front fruit and extract, still primary with not much complexity. I pegged it as a 2015 from Cotes de Bourg or Cotes de Blaye and Patrick came closer and got the vintage right. It turned out to be a 2010 Troplong Mondot. It did have a bit of burn at the back end but did not feel like 16% abv. Not a great wine and not my cup of tea. The third wine seemed to be an even more attenuated right bank merlot, I thought perhaps Pavie Macquin, but it was a left bank: Chateau Clarke 2010 from the Rothschild stable, with 60% merlot and 14% alcohol. This did not float my boat either, but it was fun to taste them blind.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
We tried two 2017s, the Blasson and the Grand Vin D’Issan. Quite light elegant wines, the Blasson is ready to drink already but the Grand Vin still needs time.
Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Nice trips ya'll had!
Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Fantastic! Patrick looks in his element. A moat and ducks are necessary to repel the hordes of invaders coming from across the seas, but they didn't seem to stop you guys!
Aren't 2016 and 2017 red Burgs amazing? They seem very open and ready to play.

Thanks, guys. We had a 2017 Chambolle 1er Cru which was really magical.

Envious and happy to see some enjoying the French wine country. Yes Patrick is looking very comfortable.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Patrick looks positively ecstatic LOL
I echo others envy…on top of the London dinners this looks like an ideal trip!

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Looks like a great time. You should have told me, i would have probably skipped my moose hunting trip to go to France!
Have fun! (And let us know which Jadot we should look for!)

Blanquito looks like he's in a state of nirvana. There are even nymph like figures near him among the grapes. He is my Bacchus god.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
I have never been to either Bordeaux or Burgundy. They are mystical rumored places to me, fairylands that somehow produce these magical bottles of wine
Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Sounds like the perfect little getaway. I hope to get out there in the spring or summer of 2022. Especially if there is a BWE trip.
Are there cleansing ales in wine country or is that only when you're in London?

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Joel we have not had time for a cleansing ale. We have been so busy, it is midnight here and we have to leave the house tomorrow at 820am for our first appointment in St-Emilion, so a few more pictures from Wednesday. After D’Issan we went to Brane Cantenac, before we had lunch, then on to Ch. Margaux then to see Lilian at Mauvesin.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
I had the 2015 Baron de Brane one time, last November, which I quite enjoyed. So I have high hopes for the 6 pack of the first wine resting in my cellar.
Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Nice. Keep us posted with the next stories!
And yes i guess i remember all the persons on the Château Margaux pictures!

Hmmm. Blanquito's visit to the Holy Land seems to have made him younger as well as happier. Wonder if a visit there would work for me.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
We arrived at Ch Margaux on time and got a warm rather than frosty reception from Emily who has matured into a fine young woman and delightful hostess. The 2010 Pavillon was excellent, but not a patch on the GV while I liked the 2006 GV more than Blanquito, who thought it was a tad overoaked, and Alex who detected some brett. But the 2006 was not a patch on the 2001 we drank later that day.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
Unfortunately the BWE photo upload system is so dysfunctional and randomly unreliable it is difficult to post photos without investing a lot of time trimming them. I just don’t have the time. So we hope to put together an album from the trip. Every post with photos has taken an age.
Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
That’s quite a list, Ian.
A few random thoughts:
-the QPRs of the trip were the Bohrmann Saint-Romain 'Clos Sous Le Chateau' Monopole 2016 and the 2019 Langoa Barton. I thought the same of the 2016 Langoa at the UGC. It’s not as good as the Leoville but it’s not far off the pace and it’s almost half as expensive.
-the most head-turning wines were the sublime 2014 VCC and the stupendous 2020 VCC, which is a 100 year wine in the making.
-my favorite new wine was hands down the 2017 Felettig Chambolle Gruenchers, which is already drinking wonderfully. Ian and I both ran out and bought some.
-I came away impressed with Domaine Louis Jadot, which is also quite reasonably priced by Bourgogne standards. Ian and I both bought 5-6 bottles from their shop. The Meursault, Corton Puegots, Clos St. Jacques and Morey St. Dennis wines were all outstanding.
-tasting the 83 Lynch Bages double blind, Alex had (for me) the most perfectly apropos comment of the trip when he called the wine most likely a mature example from Super Second chateau! 1855 and all that.
-the silkiest, sexiest wine of the trip was probably the effortlessly seductive 2018 Lafleur Petrus.

Re: Blanquito in Burgundy and Bordeaux October 2021
The day started with an excellent and - especially for Patrick - and emotional visit to Ch. Magdelaine’s cellars.
We were pleasantly surprised and impressed by how good was the 2015 Belair Monange. We feared a spoofy mess, with the 15% on the label, but that was so far from it. While it had been picked ripe less than 50% new oak was employed and the haunting terroir expression cascaded through this beautiful wine.
You often only get half the story, and when you visit you tend to get a fuller picture. Nathalie our delightful host was mortified when I suggested that the soul of these wines may have been purged in the interests of modernity, and was genuinely relieved that we liked the wines so much. What you don’t hear so much is that in both Belair and Magdelaine’s original vineyards some of the old vines had been somewhat neglected and had to be replaced. Of course it takes a while for new vines to bed in and deliver complexity. Even Patrick conceded that 15 B-M was excellent but we agreed that the 2018 La Fleur Petrus was a sex bomb by comparison.
