Don't hit me. I know I owe you London reports but meanwhile. First Chunnel trip, landed me in Beaune. First night, Grivot. Not a bad entry. I crashed Jasper Morris' private little week of wine tutorial in Bouilland. The Grivots were dinner guests. Best Burgundy night in ages. 2000 Boudots, 1999 Beaux Monts (yes!), 2000 Les Suchots, okay, oh right, Richebourg 1991. Powdery, elegant stuff (the BM and LS).
A spider found me in the night, bit me hard, but the moon was in a double knot so I slipped out of it unharmed.
Next morning, I found life in the haute cotes.
Two years in biodynamic conversion, his soil looks as full of life as compost.
Night.
This vineyard makes me happy.
