Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 90.3 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 11 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by microbox on 11/30/2013 & rated 92 points: last bottle. eye: bright yellow with some flashes of green, clear. nose: amazingly youthful. white peach, freshly cut apple, hint of quince, mineral. palate: mid weight, appelation-and-year-congruent structure and weight. touch of butter,18 Caudalie finish, stable. very enjoyable and just becoming relaxed in its drinking window. under very good cellar conditions this can go another 5 years. But why wait? (1921 views)
 Tasted by Klugi Wine on 9/21/2013 & rated 92 points: Golden colour with a little greenish tinge.
Exciting bouquet of herbs (anise), apples and lots of minerality. The wine is medium bodied, good structured and has some creaminess under the acidic and mineralic backbone.
Should hold for another 10 years. (1973 views)
 Tasted by JJKinch on 9/2/2013 flawed bottle: 1st night - Some light citrus fruit, finish has a sherry/ oxidized note. Wine a little subdued overall. Open for a couple hours. Didn't really develop.
2nd night - lemon/ citrus fruit more pronounced, slight minerality, slight honey on the finish. Not sure if this is not ready or just some some beginning stages of premox. (1894 views)
 Tasted by pifcho on 3/25/2013 & rated 91 points: PnP for lunch - showed somewhat pedestrian during the lunch. Nicely balanced, no off flavors, but fairly anonymous and lacking excitement. A glass at dinner time was very nice though - a lot of minerality and creamy white fruits. Concentrated and precise. Wish I had more than a glass left at that point. (2183 views)
 Tasted by jeffal66 on 2/2/2013 & rated 90 points: Lean and mineral with some caramel/butterscotch flair. Focused, food-friendly. A little light in body, lightly aromatic, pale in color. (2443 views)
 Tasted by texasvino on 1/19/2013 & rated 91 points: Lemon, butterscotch, fig and honey. Medium body with good acidity. Well balanced and 30 second+ finish. Showing well but could use a few more years. (1328 views)
 Tasted by microbox on 4/28/2012 & rated 91 points: steely minerality. good acid profile, still young. (1041 views)
 Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 2/25/2012: Not fully blown premox but not as it should be. Plenty of honeysuckle and a little nutty. Aromas and flavours are blunt. (952 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
