Thursday, December 28, 2017 - A wine with no edges. Full, sweet, complex, fruits, spices ...and so long. A jewel! Tasted blind in a private after-tasting round at Château Pauqué's. Came after a Savigny-Champ-Chevrey 2003.
Les Fontenys was so charming and energetic and forceful at the same time, really “une main de fer dans un gant de velours”, that I guessed Gevrey Grand cru from a rich year, but I was only couraged enough to announce 1990. Too short.
This 32-year-old wine is a true feast.
No dumb out-of-hundred points for this perfect mouth feeling.
Beside the Meo Camuzet V-R Aux Brûlées 1995, my wine of the year.
