2010 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu

Chardonnay more

7/10/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

This continues to drink well. Youthful, seawater, citrus, its pith, bright white and yellow fruit. Great energy. This will continue to evolve in a cold cellar.

2010 Domaine Marc Roy Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes

Pinot Noir more

7/9/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

This 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.

Yellow in the glass. Mature yellow apple and white grape. Concentrated, mature, in balance. At its peak.

2005 Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur Volnay

Pinot Noir more

6/10/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Opened 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.

2008 Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Bourgogne

Pinot Noir more

6/1/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Easy 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 Barolo

Nebbiolo more

4/17/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

From 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 Vineyard

McMinnville more

3/27/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Lots 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 Mouchère

Chardonnay more

3/25/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

First 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 Moines

Pinot Noir more

3/23/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

This 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 Fourchaume

Chardonnay more

3/20/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

I 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.

NV Bérêche et Fils Champagne Reflet d'Antan

Champagne Blend more

3/21/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

This is the 3/11 disgorgement. Oxidative, quite dry. Awesome if you dig the sherry/butterscotch/yellow fruit style. Selosse-esque.

2008 Domaine Bruno Clair Chambolle-Musigny Les Véroilles

Pinot Noir more

3/13/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Hmmm. 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.

Yellow/white exotic and stone fruits, some flint, sweet petrol, some fizz. Well balanced. Really liked this. Still quite youthful. Under screw cap.

1999 Taittinger Champagne Comtes de Champagne Rosé Brut

Champagne Blend more

3/6/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Little 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.

2005 Domaine Maurice et Anne-Marie Chapuis Corton

Corton Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

3/6/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Perfumed 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.

2000 Pierre Péters Champagne Grand Cru Cuvée Speciale Blanc de Blancs Les Chetillons

Chardonnay more

3/5/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Fresher 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.

Yellow in the decanter. Yellow fruit and some butterscotch notes on the nose. Drinks way too mature. Not quite premox but pretty advanced. Not to my liking. 3 bottles in total, 2/3 flawed.

2/27/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Some 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.

2002 Domaine Humbert Frères Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Estournelles-St.-Jacques

Pinot Noir more

2/20/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Transparent 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.

Two opened, both 375mL format, both premoxed. Sad. 4 left, I'll open them soon and see what the story is. Auction bottles, so provenance could be questionable.

2011 Jean-Luc & Eric Burguet Vosne-Romanée

Pinot Noir more

2/7/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Perfumed red berry nose. Copious restrained red fruit on the palate, some spice, good balance, lots of baby fat. Enjoyable now, this will be even better with time, say 2-3 years. I really enjoyed this despite its youth.

Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

2/7/2016 - BurgAndy wrote: NR

Elegant spiced Gevrey nose. Dark refined fruit on the palate, berries, kir, glycerine, a touch of wood, ore, earth, some meat. Pretty good concentration and length. Grand Cru complexity and depth. Good stuff here, drinking well now, no rush. Decanted and consumed over two hours or so.
