For fun, we asked Thibault if we could combine this with his Cuvée Felix (made in a glass globe). The blend was more harmonious and fully complete, and I enjoyed it much more than either Cuvée on its own, 93 points.

La Paulée de Los Angeles Grand Tasting (The Fairmont - Santa Monica CA): Walkaround tasting. Nicely spiced red fruit with good_ depth, slightly woody right now, but certainly rich and fun.

Assessing 2021 Burgundy-La Paulée de Los Angeles Grand Tasting (Fairmont Miramar, Santa Monica): Light ruby.Floral berry aromas quite attractive. Medium weight, excellent concentration and sap. Dark red, blue, and black fruit complicated by herbs, moderate acidity, and dry soil filled tannins. Meatier than the Volnays, excellent hidden power. Give it 15+ years.

Very serious, quite closed on the nose.
Lots of tannins, less elegance compared to the Volnays. Long and austere.
