PYCM rose from Burgundy

PYCM dunker til med en rose på 100% Pinot Noir fra Burgund. Nesten 50 år gamle vinstokker og hans andre årgang med rose.

Hans vidunderlige hvite burgundere er bare blitt dyrere og vanskeligere å få tak. Har drukket en del rose fra Provence etc men dette her tar rose vin til nye høyder. 25€ er dyrt.

Men for en vin! Det lukter Pinot, ser ut som diskret rose og smaker aldeles himmelsk med en balanse og lengde totalt ukjent når det gjelder rose. Unfined/unfiltered. Jeg gir meg over for en rose vin!

PYCM has created a rose wine based upon 100% Pinot Noir from Burgundy. Nearly 50 year old vines and only his second rose wine ever.

His wonderful white Burgundies have just become more and more expensive and more more difficult to get hold of. I have drunk quite a few rose from Provence but this one takes rose wine to a different level. Although 25€ is expensive.

But what a wine! It smells Pinot, but it is discretely rose coloured with a heavenly taste and balance. Unknown so far tome as regards rose wines. Infined, unfiltered.
Very impressive rose wine indeed!

Leoville Lascases 1988

Last week was a special week for me as I received my last pay check from my previous employer. An event that required some sort of celebration with some good friends. Of the many bottles opened during that evening was a Leoville Lascases 1988. This Bordeaux wine from St. Julien is second Grand cru classee but it has the quality of a first growth. This chateau was also the wine that made me change from beer to wine as I had the pleasure of tasting a Leoville Lascases 1945 back in 88. The 1945 just knocked me off my guard and I remember thinking what a fantastic wine it was and what an experience to drink this wine from the year when world war 2 ended. I was in shock and I then just decided to enter into the world of wine. I have always had a soft spot for this chateau ever since. And to my pleasure it has been performing well at much more reasonable prices than the much more expensive first growths in the 1855 classification. Nowadays a bottle of this wine costs around ...

Wine # 2 Blindtasting Ganddal

Deep dark purple colour. Dark berries, cherries and mint chocolate. Full bodied with soft tannins. Reminds me of an Amarone.. A very nice wine indeed. Panel is way out as it is from the Rhone valley. Gigondas 2009 by Guigal Score 17.60 Ca 20€ or 220 NOK

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!

Life is too short to drink bad wine
