| Community Tasting Notes (average 95.1 pts. and median of 95 pts. in 14 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by clayfu on 12/20/2023: very elegant 05. No surprise from Gibourg. Incredibly pretty red fruit and still fresh and youthful as so many 05s feel but far more generous than most 05s. Beautiful wine, an 05 I wouldn’t be afraid to crack (743 views) | | | Tasted by kr522 on 1/30/2022 & rated 94 points: Refined red fruit, with excellent precision/detail. Really well made, though i agree with the comment below that the fruit is a bit thin, especially in the context of this structured vintage as the tannins retain some astringency. It was much better on the second night so decant (1722 views) | | | Tasted by bill00 on 8/19/2021 & rated 97 points: Another amazing '05 M-G. Jayer-like in its purity of red fruit and total seamlessness. (1822 views) | | | Tasted by Ltim BE on 10/17/2020 & rated 98 points: Sensational wine, nearing perfection. Bright red fruits with a whiff of autumn notes. Silky palate with an extremely long elegant finish. Sheer class. (2157 views) | | | Tasted by StefanV on 9/5/2020 & rated 98 points: Again a masterpiece of Mugneret-Gibourg. One of my absolute favourite domains in Burgundy. Still lot of fruit. Very elegant, refined, at Its top. Very long finish. Balanced, no secundary taste. Fantastic bottle ! (2116 views) | | | Tasted by hprphf on 6/10/2020 & rated 93 points: Rather thin and simple for the vintage. Not the sexy profile of the recent vintages. Good resolved fruit. 92-93 (2080 views) | | | Tasted by Alex G. on 8/31/2019: Ultra-fine tannin gently dusts over the palate on a wave of red fruit. This is delicious, but not as complete nor complex as the wines that preceded it owing to its youth. I would be eager to drink this wine again in 5+ years and see what the next phase of evolution brings. (1777 views) | | | Tasted by steinersing on 12/4/2018 & rated 92 points: Not very open from magnum - more about potential (1826 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 5/18/2014 & rated 95 points: Le Serbet/ Becky Wasserman's 35th Anniversary Celebration (Château de Sully - Southern Burgundy): Stunningly good. Bottle directly from the domaine. A little more red cherry aromas with both black and red cherry flavors. Great spice throughout. Very long with amazing balance at this incredibly early stage. (5718 views) | | | Tasted by drwine2001 on 3/8/2013: (Most of) The Burgundy Verticals Tasting at La Paulee 2013 (Colicchio & Sons, New York): You can almost smell the tannins here. Restrained, backward and very tannic. Dry finish. This is not showing much except for its dense structure. Uninterpretable at present; we'll just need to wait and see. (4705 views) | | | Tasted by xwine on 3/8/2013: La Paulée de New York 2013 Verticals Tasting (Colicchio & Sons, New York): Lovely, elegant yet with great power, very fine tannins, terrific! (4468 views) | | | Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/8/2013 & rated 95 points: La Paulée de New York: Vertical Tasting (Colicchio & Sons - New York NY): Tasting. Slightly floral start combines beautifully with mostly red fruit aromas with the most faint hints of new oak. Sensationally dense red and black cherry flavors with great spice throughout. Incredible persistence and length. Very accessible for a 2005. I know this wasn't decanted but am not sure how long it was open, but probably not that long. A real highlight of the morning. (5765 views) | | | Tasted by lepetitchateau on 11/15/2007 & rated 96 points: Saturated elegant fruit, great balance and vitality and long. Impressive. (3508 views) |

| Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Producer websitePinot 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.France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

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
