My first time for the 2006. Lemon peel and nutty aromas. Same nutty flavors with apple and lemon peel, lots and lots of great textures. Great power and concentration, as well as length and precision with energizing acidity. I'm not consistently a Dom fan across all vintages, but really like this 2006, best since 2002.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Montrachet Grand Cru
Popped and poured, then consumed over 2 hours. Nicely floral with lots of ripe apple and great concentration. Fun and powerful to start, but this transformed into a more nuanced, better textured and alluring wine when finished at the end of dinner.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Clos Vougeot Grand Cru
Popped and poured, then consumed over two hours. Lots of mature and ripe red and black fruit. Good concentration, but slightly short of acidity gives it a short and almost-tired finish. Drink up.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Clos Vougeot Grand Cru
Popped and poured, then consumed over two hours with dinner. Still showing lots of red cherry with wonderful baking spice. Faint background earth hints. Elegant structure with great balance. This is my style of wine. A very youthful and fresh bottle vs others I've had in recent years.
