| Community Tasting Notes (average 90.8 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 10 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by tinybubbles on 2/27/2015 & rated 89 points: From magnum from domaine. Sweet nose with custard apple, coconut and background fresh rubber. A flatter palate brings pineapple, slate and wet rocks. Pleasing but lacking depth. (2963 views) | | Tasted by FYC on 12/21/2014 flawed bottle: Corked! For what it's worth, acidity was still present. (3016 views) | | Tasted by aatherton on 10/20/2014 & rated 92 points: I got well structured, rich oak, toast, maple/caramel, minerals and think i tasted a little peach. Probably a little past peak, but still a very good showing (3104 views) | | Tasted by Rupert on 3/22/2006 & rated 88 points: Smooth, silky, creamy - luxurious in the mouth, but not much bite or grip (4696 views) | | Tasted by James Arthur on 1/22/1999: Good, pretty fare balance with good acidity for a 1994. Not a trace of flab. Great depth of finish. (2962 views) | | Tasted by James Arthur on 8/16/1998: good, but it has the ’94 nose and flab. Needs acid. Not californian, but not a good burgundy either. Drink up. (752 views) | | Tasted by James Arthur on 1/26/1998: With Stephanie. Our last dinner at 1922. With ’85 Mouton. This was pretty good. Oaky, not much fruit. restrained, not the best balance. Much better than Combettes, but not worth hte money. I have not had a ’94 Leflaive that I liked. (659 views) |

2018 vintage: "marked by a wet spring, a superb summer and a good harvest" 2019 vintage reports 2021: "From a general standpoint, whether for white, rosé or red wines, 2021 is a year marked by quality in the Rhône Valley Vineyards. Structured, elegant, fresh and fruity will be the main keywords for this new vintage." 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
