Extremely rustic. Woody. Rough tannins. Kind of like drinking an overoaked Napa Cab.

Pinot Noir more

11/22/2023 - probraided Does not like this wine: NR

From a restaurant’s wine list. The most Californian burgundy I’ve had in a long time. Extracted, modern, it paired with dinner ok, but suddenly became mousy and bitter after 2 hours. Undrinkable on day 2.

Ouch!

2015 Domaine Pierre Gelin Fixin 1er Cru Clos Napoleon

Pinot Noir more

11/16/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Slight bricking throughout. Aromatic nose - red/dark fruits, forest floor, mushrooms. Mature strawberries, plums, mushrooms. Slightly bitter and rustic.

In a good place, mature but no rush to drink. Didn't deteriorate overnight.

2016 François Gaunoux Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes

Pinot Noir more

11/16/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Decent bottle of wine but could be much better considering the vineyard. On par with a good bottle of village Volnay. Can't complain considering the price, but you get what you pay for.

Paired with pizza. Good wine, well developed, has a few more years of life in it before starts fading. I only wish it wasn’t 15.5% alc.

Under DIAM, 375ml. Light straw color. Muted nose and shy on the palate immediately after pouring. Opens up after 1 hour. Excellent.

2013 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat Clos Vougeot

Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

9/14/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Cherries and spices on the nose. On the palate it is a complex bouquet of dark cherries, baking spices, black tea, strawberries... The depth is incredible. A very complete wine, which will further improve with additional cellaring. Superb now, bright future ahead.

2005 Frederic Esmonin Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits

Pinot Noir more

9/14/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

It's a nicely balanced bottle of burgundy with a good acidic spine. Fully mature but can easily go on for a few more years. It's not amazing or particularly memorable, but a well made everyday wine for food pairing.

2017 Domaine Taupenot-Merme Chambolle-Musigny

Pinot Noir more

8/16/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Ridiculously delicious right from PnP. Rich but in a good way, excellent depth and balance, elegant and silky. Black cherries and crushed ripe strawberries. The style reminds Sigaut. No rush to open; can further improve with time in bottle but can be enjoyed now.

2005 Claude Dugat Bourgogne

Pinot Noir more

8/15/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Day 1: absolutely gorgeous on the palate, while the nose was a bit reserved. Complex notes of dark fruits, blueberries and blackberries. Evolving. Amazing for a bourgogne rouge.
Day 2: unpleasant weedy nose. The palate is becoming similarly weedy and green.
Day 3: left a bit out of curiosity to see where it goes. Weedy nose, oxidative notes on the palate.

Lesson learned - should've finished it on Day 1.

2010 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat Vosne-Romanée

Pinot Noir more

8/13/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Cork soaked through, but no impact on the wine. Dark ruby, no sign of bricking. A bit shy on the nose initially, but opens up (dark berries) with time in the glass. Rich palate, good density. Dark fruited, Vosne spice, excellent acidic balance. Medium+ finish. Outperforms its level. No rush to drink, should easily maintain its current properties for at least another 5 years.

2006 Gilbert Picq & ses Fils Chablis 1er Cru Vosgros

Chardonnay more

8/13/2023 - probraided wrote: NR

One of my favorite Chablis producers, but this particular bottle failed to impress.
Light straw color. Bruised green apple on the nose. The palate is dominated by green apple and acid. As it warms up, the green apple turns bruised apple. Fairly simple and not as satisfying as the other Picq wines I've had in the past.

Opened this to pair with Boeuf Bourguignon. An outstanding BR, as always. Added weight and depth on day 2. The palate is darker on day 2 + mushrooms/forest floor development.

From Magnum.

Super-young and primary 15 min after opening. Pronounced acid and very red-fruited on the palate. Should effortlessly age for years.

2015 Hubert Lignier Morey St. Denis

Pinot Noir more

8/7/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Very primary, still developing. Tannins are prominent. Chokeberries, black currents, cherry pits on the palate. 13% alc. Medium finish. Lovely balance and texture.
It’s enjoyable now but will likely improve with more time in the bottle.

Dark color, similar to Beaujolais. Unfortunately, this is not where the similarity ends; there is clearly some Gamay in the blend (not a lot, but it's there).
Pleasant otherwise. Wish this was 100% pinot.

2009 Domaine Dublère Volnay 1er Cru Taillepieds

Pinot Noir more

8/3/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

A bit more bricking than I expected from a 2009. Lovely nose with some forest floor, dark fruits. On the palate it’s on the rustic side; a bit clunky for a Volnay. Mushrooms, cedary notes, white pepper complemented the fruits. It’s a good wine, but frankly I expected more. Fully mature, I don’t see any upside in further cellaring.

2017 Louis Jadot Bourgogne Le Chapitre Domaine Gagey

Pinot Noir more

8/1/2023 - probraided Likes this wine: NR

Tasted a previous bottle exactly 3 years ago. The wine continued to develop. Outstanding for its level; this is not a typical Bourgogne rouge. Good concentration, nice depth, medium finish with a little lingering bitterness. Still a bit tight and will further improve with more time in the bottle. Medium+ finish.

Surprisingly advanced. Slight oxidative notes, forest floor, muted overall. Not what I have expected from Fourrier. An off bottle, or poor vintage?
