2014 Closerie Des Alisiers Pouilly-Fuissé Trilogie des Terroirs 87 Points

Walk around tasting. Both good richness and structure with lots here for its level. Slightly firm finish for now, this is likely to open up with another year or two in the cellar.

2014 Loring Wine Company Pinot Noir Garys' Vineyard 89 Points

Walk around tasting. Very good weight. Black cherry with liqueur notes and sweet spice makes this come across as ultra ripe and very modern, yet is powerful and clearly able to maintain good balance.
