3/14/2014 - bin905 Likes this wine: 89 pointsIt has a fresh cut flower, melon and sea breeze scent followed by grapefruit, tonic water and a hint of white peach flavors. The scent and palate provide an interesting contrast, but the palate by itself is somewhat linear. |

2010 Domaine Gachot-Monot Côte de Nuits VillagesPinot Noir more |
7/16/2013 - bin905 Likes this wine: 90 pointsThe initial funk dissipated after breathing for a few hours. The scent is spice, pepper, ash and a bit of ripe cherry. The palate is smooth and medium bodied with tea, red cherry, earth flavors. There is ample acidity and a long finish. All this makes for a very nice food wine. |
