Chassagne-Montrachet 1er cru 2007

This premier cru by Colin-Morey is just stunning. Picked from the special wine list at the 28-50 wine bar in London.

The wine has just the most amazing bouquet with a mixture of text book lime, butter and minerals. A very pure and elegant smell which is also reflected in the taste.

Beautifully balanced taste where each sip nearly becomes like a religious ritual. The taste, the balance and the finish are just so perfect and with a great minerality all across the specter.

White wine does not get better than this, just more expensive or different.

Bordeaux- Le prelat du Ch. Pape Clement 2004

This is one of two second wines of the famous and expensive Ch. Pape Clement in Graves. Although young,  2004, this wine drinks really well already if you put it on carafe a couple of hours before consumption. Dark red colour, with a very attractive smell of blueberries and dark berries, its a full bodied wine with firm but nice tannins that goes best with some food. 2004 although not the best of vintages, keep surprising me with good drinkable wines at affordable prices, because from 2005 and onwards there is a big step up in prices.... Grapes; Cabernet Sauvignon 60% and Merlot 40% Price around 20€ P+

Ogier Chateauneuf du Pape 2010

This is a quite reasonable Chateauneuf du Pape (ca 200 NOK or 15€). The colour is medium ruby color which was a bit surprising. Nose of ripe black cherries and liquerice with a medium + body and finish with firm tannins. The wine can be drunk now but has definitely the potential for ageing (5-10 years). Chateauneuf du Pape 2010, Ogier Bring out the steak!
