  • Domaine Laroche, Chablis `St Martin` 2015
    Domaine Laroche, Chablis `St Martin` 2015 PRODUCER Domaine Laroche epitomises Chablis, with impeccable quality and a remarkable 100 hectares of vineyards, including 30 hectares of Premier and six hectares of Grand Crus. Founded in 1850, there is still a dynamism which permeates everything they do. Michel Laroche merged with another family-owned producer, Jeanjean, in 2009 and he remains involved in the business, along with his wife Gwénaël. As part of their aim to retain purity and minerality in the finished wine, Laroche was the first Burgundian producer to move to screwcaps in 2002. VINEYARDS Saint Martin refers to the patron saint of Chablis, whose relics were kept in the domaine's ancient monastery for many years. Domaine Laroche owns 63 hectares of Chablis vineyard on the famous Kimmeridgian soil that gives the wines such precision. Each plot, of which there are 30 in total, has a different exposure, soil depth and vine age which contributes complexity to the wine and means that every parcel ripens at a different time. Gregory Viennois refers to Chardonnay's 'two-day window' of maturity - if the parcels aren't harvested in this time the precious Chablis aromas are lost. VINTAGE The 2015 vintage started with very good conditions during flowering, with dry and sunny weather. These conditions continued and were ideal for preventing diseases during ripening. On the morning of 1st September, a hailstorm affected the vineyards of Les Clos and Les Blanchots. This resulted in a partial loss of yield but didn’t impact the quality of the grapes due to careful sorting in the vineyard and in the cellar.

  • Pinotfile Volume 6, Issue 37 the First Wine Newsletter Exclusively Devoted to Pinotphiles
    The Proof of Pinot is in the Drinking PinotFile Volume 6, Issue 37 The First Wine Newsletter Exclusively Devoted to Pinotphiles August 24, 2007 Inside this issue: When I’m Sixty-Four Kalin Cellars 6 Sixty-four is not a major age milestone, but I will take it anyway. Paul McCartney School House Vnyd 7 memorialized aging in his love song, “When I’m Sixty-Four,” written at the tender Tipsy Dog Pinot 8 age of 16. I gathered up a few wine cronies, most of whom are hovering around my Lost Canyon 9 same age, raided my cellar for some good Burgs and sat down on a Sunday after- noon to celebrate another year. The well-cellared wines turned out to be vinous Bien Nacido Redux 10 treasures resulting in a very memorable tasting. Here is the lineup with some Small Sips 12 commentary. All wines had appropriate fills and there were no corkage issues. Central Coast 13 1943 Bouchard Pere & Fils Volnay 11-14% alc.. You never open a bottle like this with high expectations, but it is nevertheless always a thrill when the wine is this old. The black cork came out cleanly. The wine was a surprise to all. The color was medium ruby with only a trace of orange tinge at the rim. There was still notable sweet red fruits on the palate with a little spice and fecundity. The wine was delicate with cashmere tannins. It was a brief, but memorable fling for the wine was spent an hour later. There were great diffi- culties to overcome to make wine in France during the war years.

Most of our big changes take some getting used to. For example the room I am writing this introduction in was designed in 1940 to commemorate our one hundred year anniversary of operation. We call it The Last Room because it was the last room added onto the restaurant. Since then many rooms have come and gone without mention, but this name has remained. Many people have remained with our restaurant as well. We have a waiter who has been with us over fifty years. A couple of our chefs have been with us over forty years. Many of our menu items are over a hundred years old. And it is not unreasonable to believe that a handful of the wines we house today were poured in our dining rooms over a hundred and fifty years ago. At Antoine’s we are motivated by our tradition. Our traditional dishes became traditional because they were radical when they first appeared. We have wines that appeared in our books and on our tables a hundred and fifty years ago, and, hopefully, we always offer wines that have appeared just a couple weeks ago. The tradition of wine drinking is about the discovery of old and new memories.

With more than 1,500 years of cultivation, it is hard to argue against the Musique et Vin festival by holding an auction for special bottles donated by winemakers this belief. However, to The Wine Forum, Burgundy is more than just pure, scholarly wine. To us, whom we will be visiting and splitting the proceeds equally between these two worthy causes. Burgundy represents all that we as a group stand for—that is, that fine wine is not a right, but a And what a tour we have lined up! We commence with a Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru tasting privilege. Speaking with the region’s very top winemakers, they resolutely believe they are merely the current custodians of cherished plots, and that their role is to make the best wines possible at the Château du Clos de Vougeot on the final night of the 2014 Musique et Vin Festival. This and pass on the vineyard in the best condition possible to the next generation. Working the soil fabled region hosts 9 Grand Cru vineyards, the most of any in Burgundy.
