 Tasted by ggroebli on 6/30/2023 & rated 90 points: No fault but not my taste (901 views)
 Tasted by La Grappe on 4/7/2023 & rated 91 points: A bright, mid-red colour; soft, elegant, raspberry/redcurrant fruit, starting to open up nicely but with some fine tannin still. Very good now, but should be better in 2 to 3 years. (1075 views)
 Tasted by christ80 on 2/18/2023 & rated 90 points: Good fruit and acid balance, can age 10 more years but drinkable now and enjoyable already. as a 375 ml bottle, great for a couple to enjoy during the week, with flavors of cherry and mineral. (1052 views)
 Tasted by daghaug on 11/7/2021: Kirsebær, tobakk og litt lakris. I munnen merkbar alko først, så mer lakris og delikat kjølig frukt - ikke så tung som på lukt. Lakrisen sitter også igjen relativt lenge i ettersmak, som også har et fint jordpreg. Behagelig og fin vin, som mangler ørlite friskhet. (2043 views)
 Tasted by AllRed on 5/28/2021 & rated 88 points: Friday Night Brown Bagger (R&R's): Double blind. Light color. Subtle and understated, it took some time in the glass for this to open and show its fruit. Cherry and red berry notes. On the lighter side of medium-bodied, with flavors of cherry and mineral. Good fruit and acid balance. Guessed Burgundy, but was surprised when this was unveiled as this appeared much older. Still quite nice though, 88-89 pts. (R&R)

I set aside a small pour and this gained weight and nuance. I would hold this for a few years yet, say 2025+. (2279 views)
 Tasted by SophieR on 12/25/2020 & rated 88 points: I appreciate the 2009 red Burgundies upon occasion, particularly when the food is rich enough to require discernible power. This generally pays off, but not here. The Corton Pougets --- a grand cru! --- was a dead ringer for a California Pinot Noir grown in mineral-free soil. It was big, juicy, and somewhat oaky. I recommend changing the name of this grand cru vineyard from Corton Pougets to Calton Pougets. (1849 views)
 Tasted by robferguson1 on 12/24/2020 & rated 90 points: Just gets 90 , house style jadot , weak on length , fruity up front. (1721 views)
 Tasted by robferguson1 on 12/8/2020 & rated 92 points: Good with typical cherry nose and fruit , softish but could do with some more time. (1874 views)
 Tasted by daghaug on 7/5/2020: Spicy duft med litt pepper, skogbunn og litt bærfrukt (skogsbær). Fin fruktfylde i munnen, og god, frisk syrestruktur. Finish litt på den varme sida, men litt alkohol. Behagelig burgunder, men ikke superspennende. Først og fremst syre som sitter igjen i ettersmaken. (1506 views)
 Tasted by henryd1 on 7/7/2017 & rated 92 points: Opened 8 hours before consuming. The nose was a little reticent but the palate was fantastic - smooth velvety dark fruit with some real weight from the vintage. Tastes more like a nuits grand cru than a corton. Oak is perfectly integrated. I'm always a little wary of decanting red burgs and the lengthy aeration seems to have worked very well. Drink or hold. 92-93 (3994 views)
 Tasted by fcxj on 11/6/2016 & rated 90 points: Underlying fruit was very high quality. Red fruit tilt and great clarity. Somewhat overpowering oak at this stage. (4172 views)
 Tasted by jfpwine on 7/24/2015 & rated 91 points: Lots of ripe red fruit character. Dense and full body. Long finish. Decanted for 30 minutes. (5466 views)
 Tasted by jnewman77 on 2/13/2015: My first Corton wine, but pretty impressive. Lots of red berry fruit, floral notes, anise, spice, and earth on the nose. The palate is fresh, driven, and nicely concentrated. The tannins are certainly present, but not overwhelming. This has lots of development potential and I think holding for several more years is the right move. (5702 views)
 Tasted by SveHj on 1/23/2015 & rated 89 points: 2009 Louis Jadot Corton Grand Cru Pouget

EYE: Clean, crisp and medium dark ruby red (5).

NOSE: Some barrel / oak (comfortable).
Spices, fresh fruit and dark red berries.
Weak earthy aromas. The nose is mild and somewhat weak. Miss complexity. It's good, but ... with time it opens some. Fresh fruit and raspberry candy (11).

MOUTH: The lacked nose bets back with mouthfeel. Sweetness, tannins and acidity in fine balance.
Delicious fruit and freshness. Some tar and oak / barrel. (16).

Obviously a quality wine. But would like to see a more full-bodied taste (7).

50-5-11-16-7 (89+) (6049 views)
 Tasted by lifebreath on 2/18/2014 & rated 90 points: Good solid burg. Crisp red fruit, nice earth, but a little disjointed with respect to tannins. Drinkable now. (4960 views)
 Tasted by drwine2001 on 3/8/2013: (Most of) The Burgundy Verticals Tasting at La Paulee 2013 (Colicchio & Sons, New York): Attractive red fruit aromas. Surprisingly tender with light red fruit, a significant dose of earth and then a properly tannic finish. Excellent. (5323 views)
 Tasted by xwine on 3/8/2013: La Paulée de New York 2013 Verticals Tasting (Colicchio & Sons, New York): Deeper pitched than the 2007, richly fruited, pretty tight and a very good wine. (6154 views)
 Tasted by yofog on 11/15/2012: No point giving a score, as this is totally closed for business. Obviously good material here, though, just don't even think about drinking it for at least another decade. (4135 views)
 Tasted by Keith Levenberg on 9/13/2012: Completely shut down. (6453 views)
 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/23/2012: Terroirs de Corton - Les Grands Jours (Corton Burgundy): Wine tasting. Sweet black fruit aromas. Black cherry flavors with good baking spice. Accessible and balanced with lush fruit coming through well on finish. (4805 views)
 Tasted by vegasoenophile on 3/8/2012 & rated 94 points: Fresh red berry fruit on the nose. Some mineral and earth, as well as lavender. Luscious berry filled palate of rich, ripe fruit. Good acid profile. Some light spice and herbal tones. Juicy, vibrant and rich, with lovely structure and good balance. Very nice! (3378 views)
 Tasted by hhannis on 2/14/2012 & rated 85 points: pinot noir bergensis vitis (3392 views)
 Tasted by ricknat1 on 12/14/2011 & rated 89 points: very nice fresh (3572 views)
 Tasted by KVM on 5/21/2011 & rated 92 points: Dark red. Deep cherry nose. A big wine with intense fruit. Long finish with some butterscotch and grip. Balanced and built to last. (3340 views)

Pinot Noir

Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.


Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.

Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.

The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.

Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.

In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.

With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.

Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.

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
