  • 200 Burgundy Grand Crus from vintage 2000, 4-day blind tasting (Singapore): Dark cherry and sour cherry aromas. Rich and tannic, finishing drying. Deduct points for tannins, precise otherwise. The RSVs did not show as well as the Richebourgs in this tasting.

  • 클로드라 로쉬로 생각하며.
    음 먹기좋은데.... 했는데..
    그동안 마셨던 본로마네 보다는 맑고 투명하고
    오크향이나 부케보다는 과일의 아로마가 빛났던,
    청초한 아름다움.... 굿
    잘못 가져온 와인으로 횡재한 느낌...
    colas Potel의 다음 와인이 기다려진다.....

  • This bottle was back on form! Everythig u love abt burgundy. And the flowers in this blossomed nicely in the mouth. Superbly perfumed and elegant display of dainty red fruits and svelte tannins. Silky smooth wine.

  • December Birthdays (My Little Spanish Place): Good, but after two smashing bottles of the same, this was rather a disappointment. I liked it quite a bit more than many of the others around the table, at least identifying it as a Vosne while some called it a Rhone! However, I must say it was a far cry from the last two experiences. This still had wonderful nose befitting its terroir, with deep earthy undergrowth notes, a whiff of damp tobacco leaf, leathery hints, some dried flowers and a sprinkle of spice over depths of dark fruited aromas. A very rich, very warm bouquet, hence the Rhone guesses maybe, but this was very nice. The palate was not quite the Grand Cru experience you would expect after a nice like that though. It opened prettily enough, with a little waft of roses and then some exotic Indian spices like cardammon and cloves dancing over darker flavours of ripe dark cherries, blackberries and ripe strawberries. There was lots of depth, plenty of acidity and a firmish pucker of dusty tannins that met the fruit on the midpalate. The finish had a nicely sweet linger of flower, wood spice and dark cherry. Yummy, but it somehow seemed to lack some presence and energy at the very end. Gone to was the bright purity lacing the big fruit that so charmed by the last two times. Bottle variation maybe, but this was a far cry from the excellence of the past two bottles.

  • Red fruits, raspberries and red flowers. Fresh red cherries, candy, strawberries. Not a long finish. Feels kinda tired. Nothing like the previous bottle I had.
