Gilles Jourdan Cote de Nuits Villages "La Robignotte" 2015

Phew normal service resumed you've mastered the new camera such that it doesn't ruin your suits!! I did chuckle as you mentioned "cotes de beaune" that Dalmatian's ears instantly pricked up only to be disappointed by the lack of "os" Whilst the cork did look good I wonder if it wasn't as tight as it might have been? Interesting discussion on the waxing and waning of a wine. I have invested in some proper stemware for this Christmas, a pack of two glasses and two bottles of el coto, the hunting ground!! All the best

Good morning ,Tweedy. The first thing I noticed was where's the tree? I learnt a few things about corks and stoppers there, too. I concur about ordering - I will often round up the amount of any said items and get free delivery, too. I don't think your assessment of that bottle was a great surprise to you in the end. Enjoy your day 😃

I get the impression that not many wines are made for long term storage these days? Five years seems to be the norm. I know my Father in Law had (in storage a BBR) wines going back to the 30's. This was in the 90's and they were very enjoyable! what do you think? has the industry gone more for 'drink now' styles?

Sounds like it’s on the way down. I’ve had 2015 Village wines that are still going well. Do you ever try Cote Challonaise wines particularly Givry? Excellent value.

Sometimes my Ah-So opener doesn't want to get between the bottle neck and composite corks. Thankful for my Waiter's Friend corkscrew when that happens.
