Description :

Gevrey-Chambertin 2018 Domaine Jean-Michel Guillon

This wine, from one of the most prestigious appellations of Burgundy, is generally appreciated for its complexity and its aging potential. Here is what is generally known about such a wine:

Typical profile: Gevrey-Chambertin are often described as powerful, structured wines with firm tannins. They offer a complex aromatic palette combining red fruits (cherry, raspberry), spicy (pepper), floral (violet) notes and sometimes mineral nuances.

2018 vintage: The 2018 vintage in Burgundy was marked by a hot and dry summer, which produced concentrated wines with good maturity. This year's wines have often been described as elegant and fruity.

Domaine Jean-Michel Guillon: This estate is recognized for producing quality wines, respectful of the terroir. Their wines are often appreciated for their balance and finesse.

-----------------

Sauternes - Château de Fargues 1985 is an exceptional sweet white wine, from a great vintage and from a historic Sauternes estate.

Main Features:

1985 vintage: Considered a great vintage in Bordeaux, 1985 produced concentrated, elegant wines with good aging potential. This year's Sauternes are often described as complex and aromatic.

Château de Fargues: This estate, owned by the Lur-Saluces family since 1472 (also owners of Yquem), is renowned for its high quality sweet wines. The Fargues style is often marked by a beautiful aromatic richness, good structure and a long finish.

Taste profile (general information, as tasting notes may vary slightly depending on sources):

Color: Golden with amber highlights, often deep and evolved for a wine of this age.

Nose: Complex and evolved, with notes of candied fruits (apricot, peach), honey, sweet spices (ginger, cinnamon), dried fruits (dried figs, almonds) and sometimes floral notes (lime blossom).

Mouth: Full, creamy and rich, with a nice concentration of flavors. The balance between residual sugar and acidity is generally very good, providing remarkable freshness and length on the palate. The tannins, present in Sauternes, are melted and provide structure to the wine.

Keeping potential:

Sauternes are wines made to age. A Sauternes from 1985 is therefore at or very close to its peak. It is recommended to serve it slightly chilled (10-12°C) to appreciate all the aromatic complexity.

Food pairings:

This type of wine goes wonderfully with foie gras, blue cheeses, fruit desserts, pastries, or even spicy Asian dishes.

Domaine R. Thubert Lardet Bourgogne Chardonnay

Burgundy Chardonnay: Burgundy Chardonnays are generally elegant and fruity wines, with notes of citrus, stone fruit (peach, apricot) and sometimes white flowers. They offer good minerality and a nice freshness.

2015 vintage: The 2015 vintage in Burgundy was marked by a hot and dry summer, which produced concentrated and fruity wines. We can therefore expect a 2015 Chardonnay with good aromatic maturity.
