  Mongeard-Mugneret and friends (London Borough of Bromley): Palates are starting to get fatigued at this stage. An 03? Really. Well put together wine. Really good stuff - no hint of 03 on this.

  Dark garnet , with no browning. In good shape with life ahead, but I’m not sure it will improve Not much sediment
  A tough vintage , with record breaking heat, this was harvested in August and has a burnt character, and is a touch raisiny underneath its full bodied, dark cherry mouth. Not my style. Somewhat like a midrange, overly extracted California Pinot.

  Nose: red fruits, herbs
  Notes: Mongeard Mugneret is usual my go to wine, most of the time they don't disappoint and the Domaine has demonstrated great consistency with their top cuvees over the years. Certainly I think this is one undervalued domaine even though Burgundy wine prices in general has gone crazy. Nevertheless, the 2003 was a bit of a disappointment. Lacking in harmony and delicacy, it feels like the 2003 was a little overripe and rustic. Although the nose was still acceptably good but the palate was rather appalling. I think 2003 reds are not worth revisiting and one should stay away from this vintage.

  13.5% abv. Garnet color, clear, slight bricking around rim. Nose doesn’t offer much, mostly muted red fruit, vegetal, green leaf. Uninspiring on palate. This has enough acid and tannins to last several more years - if you have any bottles left, holding them would be best option as drinking now isn’t worth it.

  While still alive and drinkable, there is really not much here. Nose is rather mute. There is a bit of fruit left on the palate but mostly its flat and a bit astringent. No finish. Left to open for 4 hours. Did not open over 4 hours.
