Barrel tasting at the domaine. Red and black cherry with greater weight, while still very bright and well textured. 87-88 point potential. From near Gevrey with one barrel of MSD Villages included.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny
Barrel tasting at the domaine, from a new oak barrel. Red and black cherries come across as very bright start-to-finish, then mineral textures at the end. Balanced now, good+ for early enjoyment.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
Barrel tasting at the domaine. Black cherry with braised meat. Again, nicely bright and fresh while also balanced. An elegant and young drinking Gevrey. From Gevrey-Chambertin les Seuvrées. 88-89 point potential.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Morey St. Denis 1er Cru
barrel tasting at the domaine. Slightly reductive aromas, ML not quite finished. Red and black cherry throughout with savory spice. Very good length and balance, once past the reduction. Very good 1er Cru potential.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru
Barrel tasting at the domaine. Black cherry and plum comes across as ripe throughout and slightly jammy, with some sweet spice in middle. Good for its level.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Clos de la Roche Grand Cru
Barrel tasting at the domaine. ML almost complete. some faint aromatic reduction. Black and red cherry with very precise, linear character showing mineral textures. Seems simple to start, more complex already on finish. Very good potential.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Clos St. Denis Grand Cru
Barrel tasting at the domaine. Bigger and dense vs Clos de la Roche. Richer black fruits showcasing intense savory spice, with just as much interesting nuance on finish. Very good+ potential.
