Friday I picked up a couple of lobsters, thought a good time for white Burgundy. Unfortunately, when I opened the 2006 Bruno Colin Maltroie Chassagne-Monrachet 1er, it was the rouge (hey, dark glass bottle). Oops. I moved on to Chablis, but tried later Ripe juicy cherries, a little forest floor, not a lot of definition was pleasant easy drinking PN. B
Luckily there was a bottle of 2020 Picq Chablis cold in fridge. At least lucky for food match. IrCOve liked this a lot in past, but this bottle seems a bit dull and plodding. Citrus fruit in background, good acids, but just not giving. Bad BD calendar day, TCA just under my threshold, what? B-
Saturday went to baconfest, still working on notes.
Sunday grilled sardines, Hmart chicken, king trumpet mushrooms, assorted banchan rCy
2021 Bastide Blanche Bandol Rose
Need to get more. Raspberries, strawberries, and honeydew accents with flowers and citrus., Balanced, fun, 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.
