2008 Brun, Rose: dry, light, not overly concentrated or the least bit cloying. Quaff on!
2007 Do Ferreiro, Cepas Villas Albarino: too young to deliver what it has but still pleasant; not showing its depth and breadth.
2006 Albrecht, Pinot Gris Cuvee Romanus: Off-dry and with just a little syrup-like flavor/texture; not bad but nothing to search for.
2007 Brocard, Bourgogne Kimmeridgien: A 100% chardonnay that smells like it may have a bit of sauvignon in it; lots of cut, minerals and unoaked chard. flavors needs some time in the cellar to open.
2000 Jadot, Bonnes Mares: a touch volatile and slightly disjointed on the finish but everything else is pure Grand Cru; I expected the iron fist and got the velvet glove lovely wine that went through several incarnations over the evening, all of them enticing.
Best, Jim
