| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.3 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 13 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by quaffnov on 3/14/2016 & rated 90 points: A darker hue of yellow in the glass, this is on the creamy side for a white burgundy with a fuller mouthfeel that holds up the lemon/citrus and slate palate. Lush and smooth with a longer finish and in the prime of its drinking window. (1415 views) | | | Tasted by Ian S on 2/9/2014: straw-yellow colour with oatmeal leading on the nose, with lemon in in the background with a faint hint of (highland!) toffee, vanilla and fennel. Swirling brings forward sherbetty lemon.
On the palate lemon and toffee fight it out, but giving the feeling it needed something to fill the gap between them. Acidity is nicely judged, refreshing without shocking.
Might be worth leaving this for another 2-3 years though I wouldn't risk leaving it much more than that. (2334 views) | | | Tasted by Ellenkf on 7/16/2013 & rated 90 points: Lemon yellow color. Sweet aromas of butterscotch, maybe a tropical bent? Creamy creamy creamy lemon buttery curd with abundant minerality, and a zesty lemon acidity to finish. Medium bodied with a lasting zesty stony finish. (2717 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Paquet on 9/25/2012 & rated 90 points: Again this performs very well. Consistent with my last note. (3682 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Paquet on 5/27/2012 & rated 91 points: First time with a Pouilly fuissé. Drank alongside scallop with orange peel sauce.
Nose: Mineral, creme de citron, citrus, orchard fruits and a hint of oak at the end.
Palate: Explosive and heavy. Still young. I agree with Amateurvino that this wine feels almost tannic !! The fruits came out in the midpalate with green apple, creme de citron, lime and some flowers as well. Then the finish is mineral with a buttery oak feel to it.
Great wine but 2-3 years from prime.
90-92+
Voilà ! (3388 views) | | | Tasted by Bisty on 2/11/2012 & rated 90 points: Still too young but delicious already. (2372 views) | | | Tasted by Henrik06 on 1/7/2012 & rated 86 points: Once tasted at 7 course dinner at gourmet restaurant in Stockholm, remembered it as absolutely perfect w gravad salmon. This was a little lighter and had less complexity and length. Still a quality chardonnay w burgundian character. Great w food tday. (1926 views) | | | Tasted by Bisty on 10/23/2011 & rated 90 points: Really classy with a hint of buttery tones and honey, excellent dryness and acidity. Racy like a high class Chablis PC! Will develop further and be enjoyable for another 5-7 years! (1631 views) | | | Tasted by Sleepy Dave on 12/7/2010: First sniff, very cold! Tons of cold mineral notes with herb, orchard fruits with spicy oak, tight but show good underlying material that clearly need more aging. Refreshing, crisp on the palate with cold white fruits, mineral and touch of oak, slightly simple. Juicy, vibrant and fresh finish. Give it 3yrs and it would be improved. Buy - No. (1608 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 11/1/2010: Full bore but not neccessairly in its fruit character. Are certain density or heavy-set to the wine. Much more stuffing than I expected from 2008, but maybe that is because I was drinking a trocken Riesling immediately before. (1602 views) | | | Tasted by amateurwino on 2/13/2010 & rated 88 points: Declassified 1er cru fruit, I am told. Nice, little bit on the green side, with an almost tannic bite on the mouthfeel. Good balance overall - I'm really liking the feel on all of these Vincent (negociant) and Chateau de Fuisse (estate) wines. 87-88 (1717 views) | | | Tasted by hutch on 2/4/2010 & rated 88 points: Wildman 2008 Burg Preview (Boston, MA): Bright, tropical fruits. Nice. 87-89 (2742 views) |

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy 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
