| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.9 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 43 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by kim@meko.ru on 12/20/2023 & rated 90 points: Good basic burgundy. Fragrant, fruity with nice nutty note and creaminess. (342 views) | | | Tasted by BHRH on 8/13/2023 & rated 91 points: Impressive declassified Puligny! Butterscotch and salinity form first impressions, but the charred oak screams a stylistic representation of this region's winemakers. At peak now, this is delicious and a QPR champion!! (437 views) | | | Tasted by Gemofwine on 6/9/2023 & rated 94 points: Floral & fruity aromatic.
It is rather simple , but fresh & precise.
Well crafted Bourgogne. (552 views) | | | Tasted by tward on 5/1/2023 & rated 89 points: Very Good++. Similar to my Sept. 2021 TN, but I'd say it is at or slightly past peak. CT community drinking window is 2021 - 2025, but I'm moving my personal window in to 2024 to encourage even earlier consumption. Drank well over two nights, best on the first night.

Maybe a little heavy handed on the oak at the start but it relaxes quickly. Tons of fruit. Love it. (726 views) | | | Tasted by winemaker on 1/16/2023 & rated 90 points: Previous notes apply. Lemon cough drop. Delicious (716 views) | | | Tasted by winemaker on 11/28/2022 & rated 91 points: Lovely Bourgogne Blanc. (721 views) | | | Tasted by GrapeCrusader on 11/7/2022 & rated 91 points: Friggin' delicious. Tastes a little more expensive than what we paid for this bottle. Really nice acid and a light almost airy like texture and weight. Really compelling wine for the price. Clean and fresh. Love it! (748 views) | | | Tasted by winemaker on 8/31/2022 & rated 90 points: Same as previous notes. Delicious (876 views) | | | Tasted by winemaker on 7/15/2022 & rated 90 points: Ready. Delicious. In balance. No noticeable oak. Should hold for a year or 3. (966 views) | | | Tasted by pren on 6/18/2022 & rated 87 points: 不太好 (1059 views) | | | Tasted by whudock on 6/11/2022 & rated 90 points: solid entry level white Burgundy. Good depth, acidity, mineral notes complement the pear and apple fruit. (995 views) | | | Tasted by Crew Beaujolais Boys on 3/10/2022: Medium (-) aroma: Acetone, green apple, oak. On the palate: Underripe apple, lemon, butter, salt, vanilla on the finish. Best right out the bottle, but loses its balance in the glass. Definitely not for aging. Somehow the flavors are never balanced. Oscillates between too acidic/green and just pure butter/oak. (1434 views) | | | Tasted by Erithr on 1/15/2022 & rated 82 points: Fresh with citrus and a hunt of oak (1503 views) | | | Tasted by mcktuck on 12/20/2021: Consistent with my previous note. A bit ripe (not surprising given the vintage), but impeccably balanced. Exactly what you want out of Bourgogne AOC and really solid QPR. (1494 views) | | | Tasted by tastark on 11/21/2021: Amazing QPR. Drinking like a Village or maybe a lesser 1er cru. Delicious. (1510 views) | | | Tasted by Rezy13 on 11/12/2021: A strong second in showing between the Morgen Long WV and Sandhi Chard this was possibly the most generous and New World of the three showing lusher lemon, poached pear and a touch of butterscotch, acid keeps everything together and this was delicious for 4 days. (1565 views) | | | Tasted by mcktuck on 10/30/2021 & rated 92 points: This is an incredible value--drinks like Puligny at less than half the price of a decent village bottle. Clean, pure orchard fruits, meyer lemon, and a deep mineral streak. A bit on the ripe side, but nothing is out of balance. Wide open for business now, and not sure this is going to get better. (1446 views) | | | Tasted by stokeme on 9/15/2021 & rated 90 points: 6 months ago I thought the oak protruded a bit too much & was disappointed. Now fully integrated & what a fine value. Offers a “humble” glimpse into Puligny-Montrachet. Great balance of traditional & modern. Wish I had a few more. Really enjoyed this outside on a relatively cooler day, paired with rare green AQI, amid all the fires. 2 of 2 (1736 views) | | | Tasted by tward on 9/2/2021 & rated 89 points: Wow, what a nice wine from a humble classification, just a little ole Bourgogne. Fruit forward, pure and ripe, but classically restrained still, and showing touches of minerality. Not a hint of overworking, overoaking, or overt lactic character. Seamless from nose through a finish that is surprisingly long.

Very Good to Excellent
Solid QPR in the low-mid $20s. Just bought a few more bottles at $20 USD with is excellent QPR in the U.S. market IMO.
Aside: This was my first time encountering an Ardeaseal closure. High tech molded and composite design. Interesting. It looks like the opportunity for oxygen exchange and even evaporative loss must be very minimal with this closure. (1595 views) | | | Tasted by DAGJON on 8/6/2021: Nydelig til ørret (1523 views) | | | Tasted by MJP Hou TX on 6/28/2021 & rated 90 points: PNP- A little ripe but overall great bottle for the price.
Paired well with the home made lobster taco's for dinner. (3237 views) | | | Tasted by EndreAabergJohansen on 6/19/2021 & rated 90 points: Really enjoyed this chardonnay with Norwegian prawns and Scottish lobster. Straw yellow, flowers on the nose. Buttery and creamy, nice length. Excellent value for money. Buy again. (1383 views) | | | Tasted by cclearningwine on 6/6/2021 & rated 89 points: I agree with other reviews that mark this as an "everything you would expect from a Burgundy." It demonstrates elements of crispness, minerality and oak. It doesn't break the bank. It's not my most favorite Burgundy.

2019 vintage reports

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
