April 21, 2024 - Tasting the 2022s from Georges Noellat. These are beautiful, seductive, and charming wines with a ripe fruit core and a silky structure and texture but also with finesse and elegance, elevated by to die for floral notes in most wines and a superb freshness which one would not expect in such a hot year (which surprised me in all 2022s from all wineries). The balance in these 2022 is superb. A vintage to look out for. My favorite was the Echezeaux (95pts). A impressively concentrated and layered wine with loads of red berries and floral notes, a distinctive menthol component, spices and minerality. Despite its youth, the wine was already open and showed incredibly balanced. I preferred it to the slightly closed Grands Echezeaux (94pts) which had a muted nose but showed incredibly promising with stunning precision but still quite some edges, this can for sure reach the 97pts category. The Les Beaux Monts (95pts) showed complex with superb blue fruit and floral notes complementing the red berry core, but the true highlight was the sliky elegance and harmony. The Les Petits Monts (93pts) was just a step behind, with an impressive complexity and concentration but a darker, riper profile than most other wines. I would give this at least a decade before opening it. The Les Chaumes (92pts) had a beautiful red fruit core and good roundness but remains a bit simple. The Aux Boudots (90pts) was the most stemmy, earthy of all wines in the lineup, a bit hard – interesting but missing that touch of seductive sweetness that is signature for the winery. The NSG Les Saint Georges (91pts) showed a nice cherry core but beside that seemed a touch simple, still offering good freshness and balance. The only wine in the lineup I didn’t care about was the Les Feusselottes (85pts) which a good structure but a diluted, too ripe fruit core.

March 22, 2024 - Vosne Millésime - Noblesse des Clos Vougeot - Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Château du Clos de Vougeot): Walkaround tasting with producers. Black cherry and so much more, this is so well spiced, and nearly balanced already, but certainly not as forthcoming as it will be in another few years. This will be a real charmer, 92-93 point potential from 2030 forward.

January 19, 2024 - Tasting the 2022s from George Nöellat. Maxime uses mostly new barrels. Total estate vineyards of 6ha plus negociant business. The vineyards appear to be in great spots. The handwriting of Maxim was notable in most wines which includes an emphasis on ripe fruit and distinctly smoky feature. The palates tended to be balanced with clear structures. Clear favorites were Grands Echezeaux and Echezeaux. But I also found most of the 1er Cru’s to perform at consistently high levels (esp. Les Petits Monts, Aux Boudots, Les Beaux Monts.
Tasting note:
A wine with aromatic intensity. A sweet fruit of sour cherry, smoke and spicy features. Dense palate with a tight texture. -

January 18, 2024 - Pearl of Burgundy EP22 Tasting (Four Season Hotel Hong Kong): Impressions, this a good 1er but at the price it is trading at, it would needs to be much better.
