Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 92 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 4 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Timdws on 8/25/2014 & rated 93 points: Still wonderfully fresh, rich Puligny, a rich golden colour, all belying the age of the wine. Slightly nutty, but a good fruit and minerality and not oxidised. The wine had only been kept in a cupboard under the stairs, and I had feared this gift from when I left a job in 1995 would be over the hill, but an absolute pleasure to drink. I just wish it was more than the one bottle. In my opinion it still has enough going for it to last a couple more years. (1690 views)
 Tasted by don_quichotte on 3/24/2012 & rated 92 points: Fantastic bottle of wine. Much better than you'd expect from reading the BH review! One of my favourite white burgs of last year... (2419 views)
 Tasted by wickedwax on 12/5/2011: 1992 Etienne Sauzet Puligny Premier Crus (San Francisco): Aromas of lemon oil, white flowers, grilled bread and minerals. Richer and more intense than the La Garenne and with good acidity to keep it marvelously balanced. Elegant, clean and focused with good minerality that carries through to the long finish. Should be able to hold for a few more years if not longer. My favorite Sauzet of the night. (2919 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
