| Community Tasting Notes (average 98 pts. and median of 98 pts. in 3 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by Burgnick on 1/2/2020 & rated 96 points: A bottle purchased in Burgundy. Honey, citrus, beewax, white flowers, peach, and nut fruit on the nose. Young, powerful and vibrant on the palate with layers of fruit. The depth and complexity of this wine were simply sensational. An epic old white which can easily age for another 10 years in this condition. Drank like a top 80s Leflaive grand cru in blind. 96+ (1204 views) | | Tasted by jkoenen on 6/8/2019 & rated 100 points: Unbelievably youthful and absolutely perfect. The 7th maximum score in my winelife (807 views) | | Tasted by Cheryl on 8/31/2009: Aureole with Peter Michael, CC, DP, Caymus, Sloan, Colgin and more (Aureole, New York, NY): I brought this to the dinner, but it was past its prime. :( It was "sip-able" for the experience of trying to imagine what it was like earlier in its life, but it was not actually enjoyable. It was oxidized with loads of nuttiness and sherry notes on both the nose and the palate. Medium finish. Note: I had the 1973 in July and it was fantastic. (3576 views) |

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes: * "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons * "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson * "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes: "We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes: "Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes: "Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes: "The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
