Premature maderization is a flaw; intentionally maderized, well, madeira, of the vintage variety, is inspired.Joe Manekinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15920171629129831900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-37587279744438889692011-01-13T16:56:28.236-05:002011-01-13T16:56:28.236-05:00Keith, would your comments hold for the current re...Keith, would your comments hold for the current regime?Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254237968195126520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-67822342669522726292011-01-12T17:47:21.527-05:002011-01-12T17:47:21.527-05:00I think if the Volnay battle comes down to aged ex...I think if the Volnay battle comes down to aged examples, De Montille crushes the competition...not that I'd turn up my nose at the others.

The last of those accounts for some of the best Burgundies I've ever had and might get my vote.<br /><br />It might be interesting to set up a tasting to settle this question.keithlevenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00556819801189301362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-78500405384877074242011-01-11T09:37:52.730-05:002011-01-11T09:37:52.730-05:00Wow.

It's quite a club -- needs a secret handshake or name...too bad Bones (Skull and Bones) is already taken as those dinners involve some pretty serious bones.

I live in a fairly major metropolitan area, and I think I'd be really hard-pressed to find any of these bottles locally. If you don't want to divulge where these came from, I totally understand and respect that, by the way. But I am looking for an older Cote de Beaune as a gift for a friend, and several of these made me drool.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15118064894334655912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-5507463157915921852011-01-10T17:21:31.617-05:002011-01-10T17:21:31.617-05:00I have never tasted a good Bonneau du Martray wine...I have never tasted a good Bonneau du Martray wine: red or white, any vintage. This producer- to me- represents the height of Chateau & Estates' hype of a range of substandard, overpriced wines onto an unsuspecting public starved for great wines in the '60s and '70s.Clotpollhttp://www.branchblog.comnoreply@blogger.com
