This is 50.
I’m celebrating simply at home and by Zoom and FaceTime until the quarantine lifts. I have a pile of ‘70s to plow through then but I picked 2017 Lafouge Meursault Meix Chavaux for a delicious Pinch dinner tonight.
Lime curd, anise, and a hint of whipped butter and Central Park in the summer after a thunderstorm waft from the glass. Clean aromas. Super lively and fresh on the palate showing just a hint of toasted wood aging in the long, dynamic finish. The vines here are 90 years old.
To me, this style seems like the perfect, traditional antithetical answer to a more reductive style of winemaking. I really should have bought more of these.
A more succinct note might have been: Holy shit, that’s good!
