This fabulous charity dinner, held to benefit children’s oncology at The Mount Sinai Hospital, featured a breathtaking range of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s Montrachet spanning 21 vintages back to 1978. It was a truly magical night of wine, food and conversation, all for a great cause.

This intimate dinner with a small group of close friends came together literally at the last minute. Getting a reservation for six on a Saturday night in LA with no notice is not exactly the easiest thing to do, but I was thrilled we were able to get in.

All too often, white wines are relegated to second-tier status, a sort of warm up for the reds that inevitably follow during most meals. I have long believed that white wines deserve a little more respect than that. Over the years, many of the most riveting experiences I have had have been with aged white wines. The objective of this tasting was to take a look at two of Burgundy’s benchmark whites across a number of vintages in order to gain a better understanding of how the style of each wine was expressed in each year.

I was thrilled to be a part of the 11th Grand Cru Culinary Wine Festival, held this past fall in Toronto. The weekend long program of seminars, tastings and dinners hosted by an incredible collection of luminaries from the worlds of wine and food helped raise $5.5m for the McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, one of the world’s leading research centers focused on stem cell research. These two smaller events within Grand Cru showcased the wines of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and brought in donations of $1m.

I was intrigued by the comments of cellarmaster Bernard Noblet on the relative merits of DRC's 2008s and 2007s. Noblet described the 2008 growing season as difficult and requiring a severe sorting of the fruit for both rotten and underripe grapes. "We literally did two harvests because the flowering had been so drawn out," he told me. Cool weather during the harvest generally resulted in a good ten days of cold soak before the fermentations began. Extraction was then difficult, according to Noblet. The wines were vinified with 60% to 80% whole clusters, and the team has kept a bit of the lees to fatten the wines, which Noblet told me needed more structure. Interestingly, he described the 2007s here as more classic and more typical, and more strict than the 2008s. (A year earlier, Aubert de Villaine had described the 2007s as ethereal wines, and a bit less classic and soil-inflected than the 2006s.) While I'm sure that these wines will enjoy a long life in bottle, a number of them were awfully sexy when I tasted them in November. Except where indicated, the 2008s, had been racked about ten days prior to my visit. Incidentally, DRC plans to make two wines in 2009 from their purchase of the grand cru vineyards of Domaine Prince Florent de Merode in late 2008. As crop levels were tiny in '09, there will be an old-vines cuvee and another bottling from the rest.
