Community Tasting Notes (average 90.3 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 9 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Geoff7777 on 5/8/2023: Lunch at Cucinetta 5 May 2023: Pale gold colour, with the saline and sea spray notes subdued beneath a layer of honeycomb oak in the RP&F style. An absolute contrast in style to the Les Clos paired with it and needs food 18. (438 views)
 Tasted by Geoff7777 on 10/8/2022: Rich, but not advanced as a bottle opened earlier this year was showing, so happy. Pale gold, lacks Chablis typicity, but it always was more CdeB like with stone fruits, nuts and cinnamon spice from the oak. This bottle less honeycomb spice than others and a refreshing lick of salinity at the finish to remind you of its origins. Very nice, but perhaps in a mid life place, without the exuberance of its youth and on way to an unknown future. Leave for 2025 to try again 18.5 (431 views)
 Tasted by bps2266 on 10/4/2022: brief note. rich gold colored. tons of funky seashell and spiced apple on the nose. medium plus body with lifting acidity. rich fruit with baked apple and preserved lemon flavors. nutmeg and some white pepper notes. stellar bottle, absolutely singing. ate mac and cheese with this and the pairing was perfect.

 Tasted by pren on 8/7/2020 & rated 87 points: 不新鲜的气味,三天不散,body比robin稍差,都是sommselect来的,都不太好。 (920 views)
 Tasted by Geoff7777 on 2/16/2018: 2014 Chablis Lunch (Grappa Leichhardt): Not pale at all, not even a little bit. This wine is often more "Corton C." like, but today it’s more like a “Batard M.” version of Chablis. Buttercup yellow, rich honeycomb nose with an underlay of sea spray. Rich palate with salty, lemon, mandarin, nutty flavour overlays but not overblown as underneath it all there is good structure and acidity. Tighter on day 2. But so tasty now, why keep it? (1372 views)
 Tasted by bps2266 on 5/3/2017 & rated 93 points: soft translucent golden hue with a bit of sediment. tastes much more dense than appearance would indicate. decanted 30 minutes and served after thirty at room temp. nose with nutmeg, oyster shell, mango flesh, roast pear, and rich wood. zippy acidity and minerality overly a fuller bodied wine. flavors of candied lemon, mango, macadamia, and some acetone with a lengthy finish. acid to go for years.

4 day update- evolving beautifully. still rock solid and gaining focus. (1261 views)
 Tasted by CortonColin on 2/10/2017 & rated 92 points: Great Negociant producer with this Premier Cru Fourchame vineyard. Intense aromatics. Huge body and texture. Depth for days. Better the next day. Will update tasting notes on next bottle. (1242 views)
 Tasted by Geoff7777 on 10/22/2016: Pungent nose of lemon, seashore, fennel and spice. Glorious palate! Lemon, bread, salt water, honey, white flowers and Alka-Seltzer. Excruciating acidity, high voltage tension and energy with a long finish. Glorious wine, Corton C in style and Grand Crus in quality. (921 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

Chablis

Chablis (Fédération de Défense de l'Appellation Chablis) | Chablis (Burgundy Wines)

2014 Vintage Notes:
"... a hybrid of 2004/2007 and 2010. The stone, citrus and limestone amalgam is exactly what we search for in Chablis as the style harkens to a day in the Cote de Beaune proper (1960's - 1980's) when wine was not meant to be consumed the week it was released, battonage was not used by all and new oak was rarely seen ... the texture is natural and 'of the vintage' not 'of the winemaker' .... Like Sancerre or the Loire in general, 2014 in Chablis is one of those rare years with extract and transparency. It appears to be a vintage for the "neoclassic" ages and those of us intent on cellaring the most terroir-driven (but still powerful) examples of vineyard, site-place and varietal will want to invest (heavily) in the magnetic and electric 2014's." - Jon Rimmerman

2018 Vintage Notes:
"There’s not that razor sharp Chablis acidity in 2018,” says Patrick Piuze. “But there is good definition of place. The dry conditions drove vines to drink deeper down in the soil profile."
