| Community Tasting Notes (average 93.3 pts. and median of 93 pts. in 6 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by WindFlyer on 10/28/2023 & rated 92 points: 2021 Burgundies: Côte de Nuits reds and Côte de Beaune whites: mid-yellow colour. clean nose of pear, fresh peach, delicate white blossoms, beeswax, and a note of oak. of silky texture, a mineral vein leads to subtle but growing fruit flavours deftly lifted by a pleasant acidity. some accents come into display and tend to be herbal and spicy rather than nutty. elegant, balanced and long.
needs a couple to a handful of years and should age beautifully.
13.5% AbV; from a large monopole vineyard heavily affected by the frost; vines are ~80y.o.; 25% of the wine sees new oak, and the remainder second-use barrels, all 350L. (927 views) | | Tasted by Frank Murray III on 10/15/2023: Great stuff here, changes in the glass with air. On opening, more lemon oil, orange flesh, pineapple...more unctuous. When the air comes through, it drops out some of the richness. Some green apple comes in, with Brig suggesting some bruised apple. For me, with what seems like some new barrel influence, caramel apple is what I get. Finishes with some lemon pith. Showy, flashy at this young stage. (1348 views) | | Tasted by Philippe_C on 7/12/2023 & rated 93 points: Nice nose of citrus, smoke, herbe coupée, loads of citrus, mineral quite long aftertaste, very chalky, hint of green. (1790 views) | | Tasted by The Guzz on 5/6/2023 & rated 93 points: Forward nose of white flower and brown sugar. Clean, fragrant and nuanced with high toned floral notes, honey, stones, and citrus instead of the typical orchard profile. Nose is captivating and delicate with deep soul, hard to put down. Palate certainly leaner for this bottling but focused, serious, and long. A good expression. Took 3/4 hours to come into its own.

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes: * "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons * "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson * "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes: "We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes: "Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes: "Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes: "The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
