2014 Château Thenac Bergerac Fleur de Thenac

Green pepper and salty Padron pepper on the nose. Some blueberry fruit too. I can really notice the Malbec in the blend (60% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Malbec) there is a real blue fruited character to both the nose and the palate with subtle notes of inkwell, nutmeg, posh milk chocolate and tobacco. With air and as it warms in a fairly hot restaurant there are some gazpacho touches as well. Has aged very well.

2020 Francois Gay Beaune 1er Cru Teurons Blanc

From half and under Diam. Some lime cordial and mountain stream minerality on the nose on pouring. With some air there are hints of hazelnut some subtle mocha. Palate has a more pronounced lime oil character with some hints of honey due melon. Broad and more-ish if not quite hitting the heights of previous bottles.

2017 Francois Gay Beaune 1er Cru Teurons

More muscular than many Gay 2017s . Deep, dark and brooding. Some Morello cherry with hints of aniseed. Later there is some freshly sliced button mushroom. Is the legendarily open 2017 vintage finally closing a little?
