| Community Tasting Notes (average 96.3 pts. and median of 96 pts. in 5 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by mattyboy_ on 12/20/2023 & rated 97 points: Built like a tank. Extraordinary power and tension with a lithe body. A good preview at this stage. The color has developed somewhat - deeper yellow at this stage. Started out very reductive, after 2 hours with air - lemon verbena, lemon cream, acacia blossoms, judicious barrel spice emerges. This has a very broad and zesty mid-palate - there is an explosion of flavor along with intense chalky dry extract and powdery minerals that at times overwhelms the palate and the senses. At this age, there is also a lot of nervous energy and tension. It will be a treat to follow this/re-taste at the 10 yr mark (2026 or after). (443 views) | | | Tasted by etyc on 5/19/2023: Brought this to a luncheon at de Librije. Served second in a flight of 3 stupendous whites, with the ‘08 Lafon Perrieres first & the ‘05 Carillon BBM being the anchor. With the exemplary Lafon setting the stage (which was in a great drinking window), I was initially concerned that this Drouhin might not be up to mark but my concerns were apparently unfounded after the first sniff & sip. Aromas of white-flowers, citrus, chalk, cream (like a freshly opened can of baby-formula) wafted from the (Zalto-shaped Spiegelau) glass. Whilst the Lafon Perrieres was immediately powerful on the attack, this Monty had a linear entry, then enveloped/encircled the palate, going on a fan out attack. It was at the same time fresh, pure/racy, rich/weighty (lots of dry extract) & seamless, but perhaps not as deeply pitched as the ‘05 Carillon BBM which it should become with more age. This got more complex with air/time in the glass, and finished with a nice length. Great & delicious, with certainly more upside as it ages!

The nose is citrus flowers and vanilla. The palate was tangerine, a little vanilla and a little oak. The finish was long and lush. My wife was very happy. (987 views) | | | Tasted by etyc on 9/11/2020: Decanted into a Voss bottle close to noon, and it must've been ~7-8hrs by the time we got to this during dinner. Pure white-flowers, apples & citrus/lemons were the main drivers for the nose, on top of a faint (but very fine) streak of oak (almost in the background). More yellow-fruits followed, with an almost powdery/creamy extract & texture, further buoyed by great intensity, electricity & cut on the palate. Beside the '05 Marc Colin Monty, this seemed to be more angular (or leaner), but I certainly expect this to flesh out and improve even more given time in the cellar. A very nice showing!

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
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
