What started as a casual KoreanBBQ lunch somehow became a DRC gathering—La Tâche, RSV x2, Grands Échezeaux, and Echézeaux all showed up. Not seriously planned, just good friends with good wines. In hintsight, I should’ve brought a Richebourg to make it a mini horizontal… next time!

Side by side with Guilbert Gillet at @dunsmoor.la
2020 Bourgogne Aligoté — fresh, bright, and concentrated; way more serious than just a “Bourgogne.”
2020 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Valozières — deep, structured, with a purity that’s showing beautifully.
These bottles are getting a lot of hype right now—and for good reason. Both are delicious.

Took a couple of new 2022 DRCs for a spin with sushi. I was kinda hoping not to love the Corton-Charlemagne (for the sake of my wallet), but it seriously overdelivered—way better than expected. The La Tâche was, as expected, still super young—tons of depth, just needs time to really open up.

Domaine Armand Rousseau Chambertin 2008 — a timeless favorite.
Even better when opened at Hayato, shared over an unforgettable meal with friends who are like family. 🍷

Despite the ugly AF THICC stems, the liquid inside was as sexy as it gets.
#RoseChampagne is my favorite pairing for fatty Wagyu beef, thanks @aewang for bringing the sexy juice!

ChatGPT says a group of unicorns is called a “blessing.” We blessed indeed! 😇

DRC Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru #CuveeDuvaultBlochet marked my entry into 2020s from the domaine. This impeccably crafted wine was refined and elegant, showcasing luscious sweet red fruits and silky fine tannins. While there is a stylistic change for early consumption, I couldn’t shake the sense that it has surrendered a trace of the intangibles, as if a fragment of the DRC’s soul is lost. Perhaps time will help.

Not only does @hayatorestaurant have the best food in LA, it’s got the most impressive #champagne and #sake list as well.
It’s one of the few restaurants in town where I don’t have to worry about what to bring because @brandon_hayato_go will always have something good there.

If #Juyondai represents DRC of sake and #Aramasa embodies Leroy, then certainly #Jikon can be likened to Rousseau. Among the remarkable sakes I’ve sampled this year, this Jikon #TokutoOmachi 2022 #而今 #特等雄町 #純米大吟釀 stood out as one of the finest I’ve had the pleasure of tasting.

#DomaineDeLaRomaneeConti #GrandsEchezeaux 2009. Similar to the 2008 we had awhile back, entering drinking window with aromas of dark cherries, stems, and red flowers. On the palate is considerably more masculine, with more structure and even deeper concentration, but then I think I still have a soft spot for the more sensual ‘08.

The food and service at #michelinstarred @manzkerestaurant is excellent as always. One of our favorite places for wine dinners in LA for sure.
