This is a quality Bourgogne and worth a look

Avenay-Val-d’Or

This too is admirably pure

My impression is that the Costa Russi and Conteisa are the most likely of these 2007s to offer the widest drinking windows throughout their lives with a minimum of cellaring

earth and wild red currant scents

Vina Cobos, Malbec Brut Zero This is a quality BourgogneA compact and polished Cobos with lots of dark fruit, as well as green olives, flowers and stems. Raspberries and forest fruit, too. Full bodied, very tight and compressed. Melted tannins give great presence and mouth feel, but the feeling is that they are invisible. It goes on for minutes. Sensational. So sophisticated and thoughtful. An archetypal malbec from Argentina. Better after 2027.
