CLUB WRITEUPS

Specialty Club March 2004

1998 Henri Rebourseau Chambertin Grand Cru
Please don´t drink this for a while - like at least ten years.   It´ll take that long for this to come around, but when it does, it´ll be spectacular.  Only one case of this came to Seattle, and we got it.   It´s $72.00 (cheap for a Grand Cru Burgundy), and gone.  Importer Peter Weygandt really likes this wine; so did I when I tried it - at least, several hours after decanting it.

2002 Buty Chardonnay Roza Berge Vineyard
Winemaker Caleb Foster keeps going from strength to strength.  He feels that this is his finest Chardonnay yet, and I´d add that it is one of the best Washington´s produced.  It´s ready to drink, and will hold for a while in your cellar.  It´s the same price as last year, $23.50, and there´s a reasonable supply.  Enjoy!
