Lunch at Domaine Dujac with a super-wealthy American quartet who just happened to have a bottle of ‘82 Krug with them and a bottle of ‘08 Ramonet Bienvenues Batard Montrachet, the Krug as fresh and lively as the day it went into the bottle (or so it seemed). Prior tasting of refined, elegant ‘07s and seriously powerful (for Dujac) ‘08s. Two masked bottles for lunch, one fresher than the other, both ethereal and proclaiming ‘78 as their vintage: Charmes Chambertin more difficult to pic, then a ‘98 Charmes Chambertin. I was happy with the dregs of the ‘78.
