| Community Tasting Notes (average 91.5 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 30 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by sergio19 on 3/14/2024 & rated 92 points: This terroir is regarded as one of the best in Marsannay and is expected to become a premier cru soon. In the glass a beautiful shining ruby. The nose smells of cherry, blackberry, and raspberry, with a slight spicy flavor. Fresh and almost vibrant in the mouth, with a medium and round body, fine and elegant tannins. The acidity is pleasant and the finish is both clean and elegant. Another great Pataile wine, of an interesting vintage. It has the potential to evolve again in the years to come.

Truly phenomenal and a bargain at $55 for Burgundy. (1078 views) | | | Tasted by PSPatrick on 2/17/2023 & rated 91 points: Medium to dark ruby colour. Floral notes, dark cherry, red berry fruit, blueberry, vanilla, coconut, and iron-like minerality, with medium acidity, slightly grainy but well integrated tannin, and great persistence. Creamy texture. The oak comes through at this young age. Riper and fuller than one would expect. Stood up to a rib-eye steak. More integrated on day two. Drink now if you enjoy the creamy oak, or hold and wait for the oak to subside. (2428 views) | | | Tasted by AlexTF on 1/6/2023 & rated 96 points: Medium ruby appearance.
What I thought was pronounced fresh blackcurrant/blueberry for me but closer to Decanter’s note of violet and strawberry once it had been open for a while. Some vanilla and cloves, leather and tobacco.
Medium +, ripe tannins. High acidity.
Medium alcohol and body.
Medium flavour intensity - blackcurrant, cloves, tobacco/leather.
I enjoyed this a lot. Very drinkable. Could age more. (2117 views) | | | Tasted by jvphoto on 10/3/2022 & rated 92 points: Bright purple, dark red fruit (2778 views) | | | Tasted by fcxj on 9/8/2022 & rated 92 points: Very crushable, pure red fruit (3250 views) | | | Tasted by JonnyG on 9/2/2022 & rated 90 points: The right kind of red for an outdoor summer meal. Medium bodied, with slightly tart red fruit, veering towards bitterness. A touch of barnyard funk but not too distracting. Less concentrated than I would prefer. Should hold at this point for a number of years but I wouldn't anticipate much more development. (2614 views) | | | Tasted by PSPatrick on 7/14/2022 & rated 90 points: Creamy cherry, blueberry, wood, spices, coconut and vanilla, with medium-level acidity, grainy but integrated tannin, and good length. Shows much more oak than I was prepared to encounter. And yet, it is balanced in its own, modernist way. And intriguingly creamy… By day two, the tannin is smoother and the oak is integrated a little better. One of very few wines I like better from Zalto Denk'Art Burgundy glasses than from Riedel Sommelier Burgundy glasses as the Denk'Art glasses see to tame the oak and emphasize the fruit in this wine. I will hold for eight to ten years, but I can see people liking the wine now for its new oak style. (2612 views) | | | Tasted by Ian62 on 4/17/2022: I thought this was very nice. Restored my faith in Pinot Noir after some less fortunate purchases. (1907 views) | | | Tasted by ccn on 4/17/2022 & rated 89 points: Light, fruity, some slightly firm tannins. Probably better in 5 years A little bit of Marsannay chunkiness in the finish . (2320 views) | | | Tasted by fcxj on 2/19/2022 & rated 90 points: Dark red fruit, very balanced. (2388 views) | | | Tasted by rlove on 11/27/2021 & rated 89 points: Cool, fragrant nose of wild strawberry, plum, and violet. Juicy, stemmy. (2303 views) | | | Tasted by fcxj on 11/27/2021 & rated 90 points: Quite approachable, delicious but not trading away depth. (2692 views) | | | Tasted by viniferatu on 10/23/2021: Macerated strawberry, cherry, wild blueberry, dark chocolate, beets, pine forest, mint, lemon oil, a touch of black pepper... Super juicy on the palate, this just bursts with ripe succulent fruit, perfectly tart, nice airy spice and flowers come through on the mid-palate, texture is gorgeous thick silk. Intense pure fruit and beautiful foresty and stony nuance through the finish. Love this style. It will surely develop positively for a decade, maybe much longer. (2284 views) | | | Tasted by fcxj on 10/20/2021 & rated 92 points: Quaffable. (2302 views) | | | Tasted by fcxj on 10/14/2021 & rated 92 points: Quaffable. (2175 views) | | | Tasted by wine_brett on 8/6/2021 & rated 90 points: What a banger! Took a couple hours to reveal its natural side of winemaking but such an easy drinking beautiful drop! Cherries and red fruits with tannins not overpowering despite its young age. Delicious! (1754 views) | | | Tasted by Krabat on 4/25/2021 & rated 94 points: Ganz hervorragender, sehr ausgeglichener Burgunder. Noch eine etwas pfeffrige Note. Kommt nach 1-2 Jahren Lagerung an die großen Gevrey Chambertin sehr sicher ran - wenn er diese nicht sogar rechts überholt. (2443 views) | | | Tasted by Bathtub58 on 4/21/2021 & rated 91 points: Decanted and consumed over two hours. Aromas/flavors of dark red fruits, plum, and earth. Slightest bit of harsh minerality due to youth. Drinkable now, but too young to be enjoyable. Moderate complexity/finish. Revisit in 2025. 91-93. (2256 views) | | | Tasted by beatles on 4/12/2021 & rated 91 points: Freshness, bitterness, good acidity, 2018 handled well here, very good length and a sound fruit; a luncheon wine de luxe.
#podcast (2921 views) | | | Tasted by VegaSicilia1970 on 4/10/2021 & rated 92 points: Black pepper on the nose and some black currant. Very tight nose even after 2 hrs decanted.
Beautiful medium body, fantastic acidity and finish that felt like it would never end. Phenomenal for the price. (2136 views) | | | Tasted by kostaslonis on 2/1/2021 & rated 92 points: Burgundy tasting (Oinoscent): The wine shows high intensity in the nose, ripe cherry and strawberry, earthy and spicy with some gamey notes too.
In the palate, the wine shows beautiful full ripe red fruit, cherries, strawberries, nice tannins and acidity, a few gamey notes, savoury altogether with medium to long finish.
Beautiful (2437 views) | | | Tasted by Ramon1947 on 1/27/2021 & rated 92 points: Ready to enjoy now, but probably better in a year or two.
Violet, baking spice and cherry on the nose. Taste of small dark berries & crunchy red fruit and mineral. Accessible fresh tannin. (1635 views) | | | Only displaying the 25 most recent notes - click to see all notes for this wine... |

| Pinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.Clos du Roy Exact position on weinlagen.infoFrance Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

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
