Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 93.5 pts. and median of 93 pts. in 2 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by fclarity on 7/4/2020 & rated 94 points: From an excellent looking bottle, this wine had a gold center and clear rims. The medium+ intensity nose put forth lemon, dried apricot, minerals, and some honey.

In the mouth, this wine was very ripe with surprising balance and great acidity. I say this because the wine was clearly quite mature and was also picked quite ripe. I am going to guess these we old vines because, despite the ripeness, the wine was integrated, lovely, and long. I had this open for 5 hours.

This bottle was first rate and verging on 95 point quality. However, I would certainly say the if you have any, it is time to drink them up. (380 views)
 Tasted by liber on 3/5/2020 & rated 93 points: Last of 12, opened 30 minutes, level down half cm, cork spongey, previous notes from 97 to 05 at least fine with some very fine, heightened colour, but not over for a wine of this age; rich fruit, nice chalky minerality, lemon cut, honeysuckle hints plus less good merest hint of stale corkiness; med/full, long, persistent and complex, quality rich fruit still with citrus bringing attractive balance, maybe past its very best (probably years 15 to 20) but still attractive at 31! F+ (18)……..just shows what nonsense is talked re aging capacity of white Burgs if made by traditional methods. (307 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
