Super Bowl LVIII 2024 (Alpharetta, GA): Tasted double blind: In comparison to the Mungier that came just before it, this was a much younger & more primary wine. While delicious, it is just not yet drinking in its sweet spot. Bing cherry, orange rind, some detectable alcohol on the finish. I called it 2013 Fourrier Clos St. Jacques.

Wonderful nose of strawberries and raspberries with lots of spice. On the palette it is a bit reserved needed a few more years to show its true potential. In a few years likely to be rated 96.

This uphill and stony terroir, above Mazy haut, like the Clos du Fonteny, delivers the most airy wines in Gevrey. Red fruited, with subtle spices and oak perfectly integrated, this wine was elegant, juicy, sappy, ending in a bright and long finish. Typical 2014 with its matt and restrained profile 3 hours of air brought to the fore more power and some black fruits. If it was opened a tad young, it was a nevertheless a vg companion to a T bone matured for 370 days.

During the La Paulée in Zurich, so no detailed tasting notes. Youthful still, elegant red and dark fruit, subtle spices.

Winetasting dinner Raveneau, Rousseau, Liger Belair, DRC (FB (E.S.)): Savoury aromas and palate. Beginning tertiary notes of farmyard. High acidity and medium tannins
