We have drunk a range of the Potel 2005s. This has some charms -- a restrained, spicy complexity -- but is still a letdown after the Volnay, mostly because the acidity has more or less vanished, so the wine lacks some zip.

(Potel Nicolas Gevrey-Chambertin) This wine also starts a little slowly the glass, but after a short while the aromatics become quite interesting with faint coffee supporting a nice black fruit profile. In the mouth this is very wide and concentrated with a little grain to the tannin. There’s real mid-palate intensity and just a little oak texture on the long finish. Very high-class villages.

Weekly tasting group RWP #355: Some random wines (@ DJ): Rustic bouquet with some minerals and cherries. On the palate raspberries and cherries, earth, herbs and spices, stone, firm acidity and slightly sticky tannin.

Lovely villages wine. Nice fruit profile, gentle but intense palate. Good oak and acid balance. Delicious.
