Community Tasting Notes (average 91.3 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 14 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by millesime66 on 7/19/2019 & rated 94 points: La grande classe! Robe jaune soutenu, nez concentré de pomme, poire avec l'élevage bien présent que le vin peut supporter. En bouche, c'est gras, large et long mais sans lourdeur. Un peu cher à 125$ en I.P., mais, c'est comme ça. (1011 views)
 Tasted by Shiaxonna on 6/28/2015 & rated 87 points: Deep golden straw colour. Nose gives me lots of delightful pineapple, pear, cantaloupe melon, minerals, newly mowed lawn and celeriac. Taste is full and lovely. Lots of acidity and minerality, but perhaps slightly disappointing length and complexity. I think this wine is overrated here on CT.

50+5+13+12+7 (87p) (3379 views)
 Tasted by Wineson on 4/5/2015 & rated 91 points: Good (3365 views)
 Tasted by KVM on 11/12/2014: Med yellow. Fruity and ripe in the nose. This is a powerful wine, lacking elegance. We enjoyed it but the 2009 character is a caricature, here. (3628 views)
 Tasted by BornToRhone on 9/24/2013 & rated 93 points: PnP - 750ml; purchased at Maison du Columbier in Beaune; Great nose of lemon chiffon, oyster shell, and open sea. Palate of lemon custard, lemon candy, oyster, very slight breadiness with a hint of salt.
Medium texture with a good to great length finish. Hmmmm. (4417 views)
 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 4/30/2012 flawed bottle: 2009 Burgundy Dinner with Robert Panzer (Boka - Chicago IL): Lush, ripe stone fruit to start, but this was corked and that emerged rather quickly once in glass. (5195 views)
 Tasted by Vinx on 1/16/2011: Very discreet nose. Slight aromas of green mellow fruits but all hidden behind a smell/taste of wet cardboard. Don't know if it was a flaw or not. (2272 views)

Domaine Matrot

Producer website | U.S. Importer (Addt'l Info)

From The Wines of Burgundy By Clive Coates, M.W.

For legal and inheritance reasons there are two domaines here, though everything is made by Thierry Matrot and his wife Pascale. Sometimes theirs is labeled as Pierre Matrot, Thierry's father: this includes all the Blagny, red and white. The larger remainder, Joseph Matrot, is bought by Thierry and Pascale and is now sold under their label: this includes all the Combettes. Other wines can have either label. But it is all the same wine.

Thierry et Pascale Matrot
Owners of an area of 18 hectares of vines covering MEURSAULT, PULIGNY-MONTRACHET, AUXEY-DURESSES and MONTHELIE. It's a Family for 3 generations. Today Thierry Matrot manages this operation, it vinifies and commercailise its wines. In 1976, Thierry Matrot, son of Peter, born in 1955, began work on the farm on the estate, after obtaining a degree in enology Beaune and continued his studies at Macon. In 1985, his wife Pascale joined on the operation and take care of business management. Together they continue to do the good reputation of the wines of Domaine Matrot. Since January 2000, Thierry and Pascale Matrot create SARL of the same name which allows them to buy and sell the harvest from the vineyards of Domaine Joseph Matrot. Thierry still the manager of Joseph Fields et Pierre Matrot and remains the guarantor of the quality of the culture of the vineyard.

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
