1990 Pol Roger - yeasty nose, a little caramelized. A little sweet on the palate with good acidity balance. The oxidized nose which showed later was very, very nice.
2002 Ramonet Bâtard-Montrachet - nose of sweet grass, lots of ripeness and alcohol here. A bit of orange, lemon and minerals.
1995 Leroy Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot - nose was pretty cardboard, mossy with lots of straw. I initially suspected it was a little corked but it probably wasn't. Very sweet nose with a hint of ginger.
1985 Nicolas Potel Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes - nose of lemon, ripe and oxidized, caramel, toasty oak. Really open and lovely, especially after 3 hours. I'm glad my last bottle of this wine drank well.
2002 Ponsot Griotte-Chambertin - herbs, a little perfumed with some mushrooms. Still a bit alcoholic and tannins were still obvious.
1999 Robert Groffier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses - floral and lily notes, with game meat, animal, minerals, iron and smoke.
1993 Leroy Corton-Renardes - acidity was a little higher than the rest. A little floral with red fruit notes. Very elegant. Not bad at all.
1976 Leroy Volnay - floral, game meats, a bit toasty and pop corn. Not bad at all.
