I knew this would happen - or was it hoped this would happen?
Anyway, I moved #29 and #28 back a spot to #29 and #30, respectively. In is...
#28 - 1985 Domaine Leroy Volnay 1er Cru, Cote du Beaune, Burgundy - DRC who? Not really, but sort of. I have never tasted any Pinot Noir from any producer (yup, not even DRC) that ages like Leroy. This wine is a baby - still very tight with tremendous earth and ripe blackberries. This is not even close to the maturity mark... I need to get some of her wines... even the basic village-level wines are amazing and develop incredible depth over many years. First time having this wine...
Also tasted was the 2000 Guidalberto from Magnum, Tuscany - dried black fruits and a delicious cedar note... The first vintage of this wine was a star - an excellent bottle.
