Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 90.8 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 13 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by cephomer on 1/15/2024 & rated 90 points: Drank at Copake with M & P. Dark gold in color, showing more age in glass than I expected. Aromas of buttered toast & citrus. Bigger bodied & fleshier than I expected, with notes of peach, some citrus, and butter. Lacking somewhat in acidity & a bit more flabby than I had expected. Perhaps it was just this bottle? Finish was long, with some noticeable minerality there, and only there. Hotter than I would normally like as well. I would drink up any remaining at this point. (140 views)
 Tasted by shifter on 3/31/2020 & rated 89 points: Limestone and butter, cream nose. Good weight and acidity on the palate. A bit racy and thin finish prevents a higher score. (659 views)
 Tasted by JHSP on 3/14/2020 & rated 88 points: Probably a bad bottle - was tired and not fruit - i am sure it would be better than what it was usually (452 views)
 Tasted by Collector1855 on 12/14/2019 & rated 95 points: Wonderfully flinty, mineralic, stoney wine, oyster shell on the finish. Crisp palate, good volume. Very grand. (1417 views)
 Tasted by bethel31 on 11/12/2019 & rated 89 points: Mineral and buttery notes. Drinking now. Medium body but doesn’t last very long. Good showing. (524 views)
 Tasted by Derek Darth Taster on 2/28/2018 & rated 90 points: Wednesday night at ES BK. Tasted blind.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, yellow gold colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of wet stones minerality, buttery toast, citrus lemon. Developing.
On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of beeswax, honey, buttery toast, wet stones minerality, ripe yellow peach, citrus lemon. Long finish.
Good quality. Good material but lacking the acidic lift, hence rendering it too broad on the palate. Doesn't really make me want to to age it that much more. (886 views)
 Tasted by kirbyr on 8/21/2016: attractive drinks well, not for long haul, keep drinking (836 views)
 Tasted by BuzzzzOff on 6/18/2015 & rated 92 points: Fresh, wonderful balance, elegance, slightly creamy vanilla and will only get better next year. Pernot is a genius of Puligny-Montrachet in the same neighbourhood of Leflaive, Olivier Leflaive and Girardin!!! (1119 views)
 Tasted by peternelson on 9/18/2014 & rated 92 points: This has a very restrained nose, not giving much up, with slight melon rind, rocks, delicate white flowers, and apple skin; But this really shines on the palate with boat loads of crushed gravel, limestone, beautiful weight in the mouth that's impeccably balanced, voluptuous, and concentrated (but not heavy or "rich"). Intense in the mouth with a super mineral finish and slight tannins. No real oak showing. Nice restraint, great wine. 92-93 (1121 views)
 Tasted by BurgAndy on 8/16/2013: Great floral white and yellow fruit nose but the palate is pretty fat. Yes, Puligny is character, but this is a bit viscous and broad. Missing that chiseled fruit, minerality, and some bite. Needs to lean out, the fruit needs to fade a bit, the acid needs to emerge. Reminds me of fat Ramey chardonnay. This needs cellar time and some positive evolution. Drank over two days. (1581 views)
 Tasted by peternelson on 3/2/2013 & rated 92 points: Medium pale yellow with green flecs; very aromatic with a little warming, green apples, melon rind, raw hazelnut, slight fig, and slight pie crust, boats of gravel and chalky minerals; good nervosity, med+ acidity, slight tannic aspect, great structure, very long finish. Very nice, very high quality. (1283 views)
 Tasted by peternelson on 11/20/2012 & rated 91 points: Aromatic, stony, chalky, complex minerality with lemon and crushed rock; balanced, elegant too. 91-92 (1095 views)
 Tasted by peternelson on 11/17/2012 & rated 91 points: This had a slight tropical note to it, good intensity, expressive with mineral under pinning. Tasted blind at Domaines et Saveurs Collection with Jeanne-Marie de Champs and guessed '09 Pouilly-Fuisse(!). (963 views)

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

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
