    1982 PolRoger Brut Cuvée Sir Winston ChurchillBY NEAL MARTIN | FEBRUARY 12, 2024Ourgreatest Prime Minister, after Liz Truss, had impeccable taste in Champagne. Though I must drink far less bubbly than Sir Winston Churchill (probably like most people), I have always enjoyed the cuvée created in his honor. As thestory goes, the PM met Odette Pol Roger in 1944 at the British Embassy in Paris,and their families struck up a close friendship.

    Jan 21, 2024 | vinous.com | Neal Martin

    BY NEAL MARTIN | JANUARY 22, 2024Last year was such a treasure trove of amazing bottles that I completely forgot a dinner in February that finished with a pair of outstanding wines from Jean-Louis Chave. The 1983 L’Hermitage is a vintage I have encountered a couple of times before, though not for some years. Gérard Chave would have made this.

    Pump Up TheVolume: 2019 Burgundy - BlindBY NEAL MARTIN | DECEMBER 12, 2023Whatprice is a Burgundy label? To what extent does value derive from what isprinted on the bottle's exterior?

    The 1974 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Georges de Latour was served blind at a restaurant in Beaune, from a vintage where California excelled.

  • Cellar Favorite: 2016 Domaine J-F Mugnier Musigny Vieilles Vignes (Dec 2023)

    2016 DomaineJ-F Mugnier Musigny Vieilles VignesBY NEAL MARTIN | DECEMBER 04, 2023FrédéricMugnier caused a few ripples when, tired of witnessing his Grand Crus martyrednot long after bottling in restaurants around Beaune, he decided to withholdhis Musigny Vieilles Vignes until he deemed it had several years’ bottle age. Iwish more growers would follow his lead. The latest to be released is the 2016Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru.
