Community Tasting Notes (15) Avg Score: 89.9 points

  • Just decanted. The nose has aromas of baked black and fresh red cherries, garden herbs and a kick of spice as well as obvious wood. Medium-light bodied, this is on its last legs, but still a joy. Red and black cherries, some spice and a hint of menthol. 89

    Edit: Fell apart quickly, so make haste!

  • Some browning tinge to a medium to dark red color with a lovely Pinot nose & a complex medium body with a moderately long aftertaste. 4.0/5.

  • This is fundamentally a lovely medium bodied mature Burgundy having plenty of quite rich red berry fruit left after nearly 30 years in addition to forest floor, discreet minerals, moreish acidity, silky texture and resolved tannis. For a full review, with which I concur, I commend Jonne's TN which is well worth translating. However, I don't find "brett" or "rustic" as reported by Bon Vivant; bottle variation? This elegant mature bottle of Beaune would rate at least 92 points but for a question mark about a faint cardboard aroma especially on the nose, which could be a trace element of TCA. It was not enough to spoil enjoyment, let alone discard the bottle, especially as Germaine, usually trigger happy with complaints about TCA, commented "what a beautiful wine"! Maybe I'm confusing Jonne's "mushroom" with TCA but no rating.

  • The wine was a bit murky but proper color considering the age. Aged red fruit with some old world funk and bret dominating upon opening. Rustic with fair amount of old book leather and tobacco although with some air more sweetness came forth. Overall this was in great condition considering the age, could have easily though it was 10 years or so younger. On the more sauvage end of the Burgundy spectrum but still enjoyable. I would recommend consuming if you have this.
