My interview with Julie Cavil, new Cellar Master of @krugchampagne is free to read on @wine_advocate - link in profile. #krug #champagne #wineadvocate

Reminiscing about these bottles, drunk during a trip to Burgundy with @fkahirsch and @kuang_he during our Oxford days. I like to say that graduate study is the only form of institutionalized punishment where you get extra time for good behavior, but we sure made the most out of the vacations 😋 #musigny #ramonet

This has been a good week for Beau Rivage! First our second Michelin 3* placement at @therestaurantmw and now featured in the Dagens Næringsliv by @metebo! Thank you @liznorway for risking adding a Californian wine to your portfolio 🙏

My Burgundy report for @wine_advocate was just published, featuring reviews of the extreme 2018 vintage (mainly from barrel) as well as an extensive look back at the immensely charming 2017s in bottle. Part two, including some great domaines, will be out in February. Link in profile for subscribers! #burgundy2018 #wineadvocate

Working on a resumé of 2019, a year that witnessed an embarrassment of great bottles—but my 2018 Burgundy vintage report comes first! As a student, when we drank very well, I used to wonder if the same standard would ever be maintained. Somehow, each year just keeps on getting better! 🙏 Warmest wishes for 2020 to everyone, and especially friends in the US trade and European wine world, for whom the new year brings notable uncertainty.

1989 Egly-Ouriet still on fine form! #eglyouriet #partylikeits1989
