Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 91 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 2 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by coremill on 7/26/2019 & rated 89 points: Fully mature and probably past prime but not oxidized. Dark gold color.
Lots of smoke and honey and minerals, lowish acid, not a ton of fruit left, but thankfully none of the cidery/sherry notes. I liked it, but you have to like really old white burg to like this. Drink up. (1098 views)
 Tasted by Paul S on 1/31/2015 & rated 93 points: Team Pete Dinner (Cove99, Peck Seah Street, Singapore): A very good wine, just lacking a bit of oomph to make it a truly great one. This had a lovely lifted nose, with whiffs of vanilla and almonds, white peach and apple, button mushrooms and cracked spices. With time in the glass, a sweet floral perfume and honeyed tones started coming out as well. A complex, attractive nose. It was really pretty on the palate too. This was ripe and fruity, and there was a creamy, almost oily depth on the attack, but it still felt really alive and sprightly in spite of its fleshiness, with bright, prickly acidity running through high-toned flavours of sweet stone fruit laced with roasted nuts and toasty spice. It loss a bit of weight and authority on the midpalate I thought, before a nice streak of almond skin and stony minerality and a blush of spice stretching through the fruit into a long, palate-staining finish. There was just a touch of distracting bitterness right at the end, but otherwise, this was very nice indeed. Still youthful and a little tight, I think it will be even better in 4-5 years. Beyond that, it will probably keep going for ages. Very good, if just lacking a touch of substance on the midpalate to make it a really great Corton-Charlie. (3134 views)

Burgundy

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
