This informal lunch with Robert Parker was a great way to spend an afternoon during what turned out to be a brutal winter for the Northeastern United States replete with multiple record-breaking snowstorms. Petit Louis, part of the empire of Baltimore restaurateurs Cindy Wolf and Tony Foreman, serves up classic bistro fare in an informal and relaxed setting. The food was delicious, and a perfect foil for a number of breathtaking wines.
We started with Lafon’s 1985 Meursault Charmes. This was an especially ripe, almost tropical Charmes full of exotic fruit, honey and flowers that flowed through to a lush, oily finish. Readers still holding on to their bottles will want to drink this sooner rather than later, as the 1985 Charmes is fully mature, if not slightly past peak.
