Made a milk braised Boston butt from Brinkley farms. A delicious piece of pork from right down the road.
2002 Louis Jadot Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru La Dominode
I should probably keep my hands off of these, but I really like the way the lean, spice-box fruit shows right now. It is a bit tight and young and not as aromatically expressive as it will be, but I really like how the verve, snap, and tannin work with fatty food at this stage. I’ll try to keep my hands off for at least another 3 years, but this can certainly go for a long time. A great value in red Burgundy.
2005 Desvignes Morgon Côte du Py Javernières
OK, I’m pressing my luck with this one. I think it is finally starting to shut down. I bought a good bit, so I could afford to be profligate. No more. Hands off for 2 years and should hold for many more.

About Me
- the vlm
- I have been in and around the wine business my entire adult life. I think that I have a bit of insight after all these years of traveling to wine regions, working in viticulture, working in the wine retail, wholesale, and import business and drinking more than is legal in all 50 states.

Thanks for note on Desvignes.
Upper or Lower Tier?
I have both in deep storage.
Oh and it is the "Cote de Py" bottling or the Javernieres? in 2005 there was a CDP, Jav 1 and Jav 2.
