| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.9 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 9 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by rocknroller on 7/5/2020 & rated 92 points: Deep golden color. PNP, drank 2 glasses over 2 hours. This has a fun nose, very rich and full with butter brushed pie crust, lemon oil, dried apricot, honey, grilled pear, lemon zest and dried wood. The palate is somewhat honeyed also, but very oily textured, lemon oil, apricot, butter cream, dry stones, and a deep lingering finish. This has a full bodied, oily texture that is rich and energetic, good acid to carry the fruit and texture. These have a lot of complexity and depth that comes with age. Last bottle, and best bottle. I will seek this out in the future too. 91+ to 92pts. (999 views) | | | Tasted by rocknroller on 12/24/2019 & rated 90 points: Christmas Eve with Family (St. Paul, MN): Medium dark golden color. Drank a glass over 90 minutes. This round and showing some age and maturity, but still in good shape and fairly consistent with a bottle 2 years ago. Lemon, tangerine, hints of vanilla; lemon oil textue with a little orange, spices, quite dry, limestone and just a little oxidative character. (1233 views) | | | Tasted by rocknroller on 9/6/2017 & rated 91 points: Light gold color. Drank 2 glasses over 2 hours. Aromatic lemon nose with spiced pear, high toned, subtle fennel seed. The palate is really quite lovely, dominant lemon, tangerine, very tangy, mineral, medium body, pear, and a kiss of wood spice. (1654 views) | | | Tasted by Ian S on 7/5/2015: Still youthful and I'd lean towards another couple of years improvement yet. (2257 views) | | | Tasted by Paul S on 6/1/2012 & rated 91 points: Dinner at Cafe de HK (Cafe de HK, Balestier Road): This was a very good Mâcon indeed. It had a very expressive nose, full of flowers and tropical fruit, beeswax and honey, and some almond aromas floating around there somewhere. Very attractive. The palate carried the same dulcet tones, with a sweet, honeyed glow to its tropical fruit - think pineapples and melon with sweet melons in the background. This had all the typical warm, friendly fruit of the Mâconnais, and yet it was very nicely balanced by some lovely juicy acidity. It was an extremely enjoyable from attack to finish, where it tailed away with a touch of kumquat and a little kiss of chalky mineral and spice. Delicious. It should keep improving over the next few years, adding some of the complexity that seems to be missing in its youth - but, really, why wait when it is so extremely yummy even now.

Hazelnut, with ripe yellow fruits aromas, almost pineapple and mango likes. However, the mineral, spices and white and yellow floral scents give the ripeness of the wine a good lift and energy. Even more creamier and fuller bodied. On the palate it offers chewy yellow fruits and mineral. Here, the 80% new oak obviously lends better richness and body to the wine. Most importantly the wine has sufficient fruits to counterbalance it. Clean, elegance, saline mineral infused medium length finished. Delicious. 89-90+ (3703 views) | | | Tasted by rjonwine@gmail.com on 2/13/2012 & rated 89 points: 2010 Burgundies - Frederick Wildman Portfolio (Hotel Monaco, San Francisco, California): Light lemon yellow color; lifted, ripe lemon, ripe pear nose; tasty, soft, ripe pear, ripe lemon palate; medium finish (2236 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
