Pinot Noir more

A bit criminal to open - needed a triple decant and a few hours and still ... either open the day before or leave for a few years

Maybe in a shut down phase - it was a bit reductive and even after a day did not come around

First of six. Double decant and an hour or two before it opened up. BlackBerry and underbrush, restrained nose and old world style. A definitely slow drinking wine. Tannins not too prominent but I would open the bottle the day before next time!

Was actually not the muscat - but Kakhet varietal - dark red, overripe abricot and raisin with a hint of walnut - a very very interesting sweet wine - "beyond sauternes" towards port but neither.

A bit jammy and perhaps over-extracted but I don't know the indigenous grape. Armenia has very interesting wines!

This was an excellent Verdicchio at a ridiculous price point - 13 euros.

An experiment - 14 year old Canadian niagara pinot noir. Thinned out and the age is showing but certainly drinkable and interesting. But was better 5-8 years ago.

Weird. 10 percent alcohol, bio but very thin. Not sure what the redeeming feature is. Their pendant is great though!

Really very nice for a chambolle villages - underbrush and blackcurrant with a slight menthol licorice after note. Medium mouth finish. Looking forward to the 1e cru.

Smoother and rounder than areni noir grapes, with a young tannic edge but bright red berries (red currant, strawberry) and a medium finish. Armenia makes some lovely wines!

after a 2 hour decant, lovely round soft tannins, almost chocolate notes, with dried cherries and fig. Very nice - sorry some people had bad bottle experiences; it was definitely a good quality/price Barbaresco if one is patient

2009 Jean-Jacques Confuron Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Aux Boudots

Pinot Noir more

8/7/2021 - bacchusnyon wrote: 92 points

Three hours opened, one hour decant, drank over an evening. Evolved nicely, but always a bit restrained, with a long mouth finish, some bramble, red currant, to go with the notes of underbrush and pencil lead. Excellent, and in its window.

open a couple of hours, then a decant. Could have used longer. Like all Confuron NSGs - brilliant, but a bit tightly wound at first.

Quite an interesting experience. Aged, so thinned out a bit, but still rich and a round mouth feel, a touch oxidized but still distinctive crystalline.

A lovely offering, but not the best year. Medium-length finish, very round mouth feel and well integrated all across the palate. I prefer the Boudots for its flintiness, but won't turn this down. Needed at least an hour in the decanter, and developed well in the glass.

Well, drank it alongside a similar priced (from the producer) JJ Confuron, and I have to say it did not shine. A nice, long finish, entry level Nuits st. Georges from this producer, but the quality-price ratio is off, to my mind.

This was a lovely simple villages - actually better than that. over one hour it smoothed out, with medium secondary notes and a nice "tart" finish. Not a great rqp, but ok at 29 USD.
