2020 Dureuil-Janthial Rully En Guesnes Wadana

Pinot Noir more

4/9/2024 - etyc Likes this wine: NR

Decanted (into Voss). It must've been almost 3+hrs before we came to this (and final flight) wine. Served (blind) beside a pair of '21 Lamarch Suchots & Chaumes (also blind). This sure made an impressive entrance. The bouquet was one with dark-primary fruits, "high-class" oak and spices... but it was really what followed next that was rather stunning. Waves after waves of blue-black berry fruit encased in a velvety shell hit the palate. This was power, concentration amplified, but yet maintained a nice balance/freshness without becoming overbearing. Dinner companions guessed Grand-Cru. The Wadana sure overshadowed the 2 Lamarche, leaving them in the shade... Can't wait to see how this develops with time/cellar age!

2010 Domaine Bertheau (Pierre et François) Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses

Pinot Noir more

4/9/2024 - etyc Likes this wine: NR

Blinded. Coming after the Dandelion, this immediately established/discerned itself as the more tradition, serious wine. A wine of refinement. Beautiful notes of cherries, strawberries mixed with spice (and just bits of oak) rose from the glass with a few swirls. Silky, velvety & layered mouthfeel, this was red-fruit driven with a nice weight/depth. Very nice & delicious. This will continue to keep & should improve even further with more age.

2022 Domaine Dandelion Rosie Red

Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Pinot Noir more

4/9/2024 - etyc Likes this wine: NR

Blinded. What a coincidence when it was eventually unveiled. I was just looking/searching for Dandelion wines (to buy/try) when this turned up at our dinner! Attractive aromas (to me), in the whole-bunch, nature-ish style done right - roses, violets, cherries mixed with incense, this was outright beautiful. Tasty, elegant, fresh, with more cherries on the palate. This was lovely. Can't wait to try another of Dandelion's wines again!

1998 Domaine Charles Audoin Marsannay Les Favières

Pinot Noir more

4/26/2024 - Povilas Likes this wine: 91 points

Still alive and kicking. Needed 3 hours in the decanter to open fully. Nose of dried cherry, dried flowers, mushroom, forest floor and old wood. High acidity on the palate, still some tannins that are bit dry. Sweetish dry cherry on the finish. Acidity has integrated better and fruit was more present on the second day.
Really liked it. It’s fully mature, most likely plateau or slow decline. For the recent price new vintages are still a bargain. Especially if the quality under the son Cyril has improved. It can beat more expensive burgundies in blind tastings easily.

2021 Enderle & Moll Pinot Noir Liaison

Baden more

4/26/2024 - ylkim30 Likes this wine: NR

Earthy, forest-floor pinot funk on the nose. The palate has red fruit, herbs, bright acidity, a very delicate weight on the palate, good acidity, and the barest hint of grip (tannins are smooth and not drying at all). Not the most complex palate, but a very drinkable, enjoyable Pinot Noir.

2014 Domaine Robert Chevillon Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Bousselots

Pinot Noir more

4/26/2024 - bordeauxman777 Likes this wine: 94 points

This wine is a monster in the most flattering sense! At the age of 10, it exudes tremendous poise and boasts a rock-solid structure. Its fading color should not deceive you; this intrinsic Nuits Saint Georges has a brave future ahead. I once stood in the cellars of Domaine Chevillon, savoring samples of an another vintage, and this wine transports me back to those caves with the swoosh of a magic wand. In unforeseen time, it might stand among the best modern Burgundies ever crafted. I sincerely hope to live long enough to express, with decades of enthusiasm held back, 'Oh, how lovely!

A very good representative of Petits Monts terroir -- medium-light, intense, red fruits, good penetration and depth, a little minerality. Cellared since original release.

RSV/Richebourg dinner - this was no doubt very young. Bouquet of spice, sandalwood, cherry liquor. Weighty, concentrated on palate with blue/dark fruits. Layered. Will certainly improve with more years on it!

Medium ruby. Healthy nose of sharp red berry, heady high pitched violets, earth, damp cellar. Layers of youthful delicious raspberry, holiday spices, fine iron shards, hints of oak, fine earth on the satiny palate. Fresh acidity and firm but fine-grained tannin. Long finish of lifted red berry, iron flecks, and tart bramble. Already delicious, this wine is stacked for future glories. Opened to celebrate L’s 75th.

RSV/Richebourg dinner - came across as more structured than the '08 Hudelot Riche. Smoke, blood & wood on the nose; Powerful on the palate but still felt a tad closed. Should be much better with more age...

2009 Mongeard-Mugneret Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru Les Vergelesses

Pinot Noir more

4/26/2024 - zscheiner wrote: NR

Decanted for a tiny bit of sediment. Pretty nose that leaps from the glass, deep red cherries. The fruit carries over on the palate, a little deeper and slightly baked age, but there’s still nice supporting acidity. Some baking spices but no tertiary complexity yet, will be looking for that in 5+ years.

2006 Faiveley Corton-Clos des Cortons Faiveley

Corton Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

4/26/2024 - rosenst1 wrote: 91 points

PnP - perfect cork and fill. Medium red with browning on the edge. First night this was almost undrinkable - intense mineral very tannic and drying on the finish. Magically transformed on day 2 (stored in fridge, corked). Lovely cherry flavors with mineral underpinnings and just a slight drying finish. Quite impressive as Corton often is, but a challenge. Not sure where this goes from here but better vintages of this wine could live for decades.

Pretty nice wine. Took some air to come alive. Big mushroom, gravel notes. Nice balance as well. Really very little fruit. Very nice wine but know your audience. Finish is pretty clipped, subtle nose. All in all nice wine for the price.

RSV/Richebourg dinner - Friend brought this as a ringer (an additional btl). So ironic that most declared this as WOTN. This was just in the right zone, with age/fruits. Pretty, elegant, lifted but also had good concentration & layers on the palate. Well done, but quite a mockery to the R&R theme! 😂

RSV/Richebourg dinner - contrary to the '01 Bouchard Aine RSV, this was still tannic, a bit "hard"/structured and somewhat unyielding. Bouquet fared better though, with smoke, incense & tea. Hope it'll improve with more age. The younger Poisot RSVs (eg. '17) seem much more attractive...
