2010 Domaine Marc Roy Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles VignesPinot Noir more |
7/9/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRThis has sat undisturbed in a cold cellar for over three years now. Perfumed red berry nose. Dark red berry, cranberry, fennel, a hint of rhubarb on the palate. Seamless, primary, long, balanced, and delicious. Not overly complex but just glutinous fruit driven balanced Gevrey. Drinks more like 1er Cru juice. I don't see this adding too many more layers, so I'd drink now, and it'd be a shame to miss out on its fruit. Will probably hold in this way for another year or two before going secondary/tertiary. Lovely stuff. |

2005 Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur VolnayPinot Noir more |
6/10/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NROpened up after a brief decant. Berry nose, black and red fruit mineral palate. Very Volnay, not austere. Better with more air and food. Freshest bottle of the lot. Probably just dumb in the past. Peaking. Last bottle, drink up. |

6/1/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NREasy drinking rockstar juice. Certainly not Vosne, just a nice perfumed red berry rose petal nose with crushed red berry and rocks on the palate. Last bottle. $26 in 2011. My times have changed. |

1999 Pio Cesare BaroloNebbiolo more |
4/17/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRFrom magnum. Cherry and wood inflected nose. Soft black cherry, tobacco, dirt, acid on the palate. Great length, balance, and concentration. Relatively soft and refined with a nice lick of acid on the back end. Mature but I'm sure will hold for a while in this format. |

2012 St. Innocent Pinot Noir Momtazi VineyardMcMinnville more |
3/27/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRLots of chewy perfumed ripe Pinot fruit with great midpalate depth and concentration. Surprisingly, after a few hours, the finish came off as just a bit clipped. This should be cellared for a few more years as this is wicked primary. Not sure about that finish however. Decanted and tasted over about three hours or so. |

2006 Domaine Henri Boillot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos de la MouchèreChardonnay more |
3/25/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRFirst 4 bottles (all 375 mL) premoxed -- this is bottle number 5 -- and it is singing. Yellow fruit with a touch of petrol and butterscotch on the nose. On the palate, this was just a little fat out of the gates, but with some decanter time, this was all about ripe white and yellow Puligny fruit, a touch of honey, a touch of flint. Good acid and balance. Maybe not the best Mouchere I've had, but certainly great for the vintage. And no premox tonight. |

2002 Domaine Joblot Givry 1er Cru Clos du Cellier Aux MoinesPinot Noir more |
3/23/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRThis is awesome. Gravel, tart black cherry, and graphite. Lots of acid. Oxymoronic hedonistic austerity. Reminds me of Lafarge. Joblot always seems to ring my bell. |

2010 William Fèvre Chablis 1er Cru FourchaumeChardonnay more |
3/20/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRI really liked this despite that this is not domaine fruit. Citrus and brine nose, white and tart yellow fruit, seashell, some citrus zest on the palate. Good acid and balance, bright and energetic. In a real good place right now. |

2008 Domaine Bruno Clair Chambolle-Musigny Les VéroillesPinot Noir more |
3/13/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRHmmm. Awesome dark burg Chambolle nose, the palate does in fact give me a glimpse of Bonnes Mares. But tonight, this comes off as surprisingly dilute. Not faded or thin, just really short on concentration and length. Decent material, but I guess this is why this is labeled village. Barthod's 1er of similar ilk, not surprisingly, is in another league. |

3/6/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRLittle more to say other than this is rockstar elixir. Salmon-pink in the glass, soft perfumed berry aromas, delicate mousse. More crushed berry on the palate, great acidity, balance, and length. Still drinking pretty young. I could drink this all day and all night. |

3/6/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRPerfumed dark red berry nose. Light on the palate for Corton, with flavors of dark berry and ripe plum, good acidity and length. A little short on concentration. Still primary but I'd drink up now. Would have thought solid 1er Beaune if tasted blind. |

3/5/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRFresher bottle than the last. Yellow color, relatively tight mousse. Sherried yellow fruit nose. Mature chard on the palate, with more oxidative notes, baked yellow apple, spice. Blind I would have guessed Selosse. Great showing this evening. |

2/27/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRSome bricking. Red berries, some vegetation, whiff of cinnamon. A little '04ish but in a sorta good way. I'd be drinking up at this point if this bottle is representative. |

2/20/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NRTransparent but dark in the glass, no bricking. Dark red fruit, some spice on the nose. Seamless Gevrey fruit on the palate, earth, great concentration and length. Singing. Grand Cru quality here. Primary but so well balanced. This should hold for a long while but in such a sweet spot now. Consumed over about three hours or so at cellar temp -- got better and better with time. |

Grand Cru complexity and depth. Good stuff here, drinking well now, no rush. Decanted and consumed over two hours or so. |
