Introduction
15th Year anniversary for PoB with a big group of winemaker coming into town with a huge range of wines poured. Many more wines were available but did not get around to tasting them. Those were indicated in private notes. Superb tasting as always
2022 Domaine Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin Vieille Vigne
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
Very good village, good fruits and purity at this level.

2022 Jean-Marie Fourrier Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru
Darker and more masculine compared to CSJ, representative of the plot.

2022 Jean-Marie Fourrier Chambertin Vieille Vigne
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambertin Grand Cru
Dark and dense, somehow missing the edge compared to Domaine cuvee

2022 Domaine Fourrier Griotte-Chambertin Vieille Vigne
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru
Dense fruits yet drinking beautifully now. Have a preference for the CSJ over this for the slight edge. Perhaps expectation were high for the only GC of the Domaine. Still an excellent wine being picky here.

2022 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru
Classic HN style with the density from 2022. Elegant compared to the Malconsort and my preferred cuvee from HN

2022 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru
Dark and masucline compared to the suchots, this had a little more blue fruits. Definitely would be better with age and can see why CVC thinks this plot is GC quality.

2022 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat Clos Vougeot
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Clos Vougeot Grand Cru
From vines on the top of the hill according to CVC, not particularly impressive with this after the Malconsort.

2022 Domaine Nicole Lamarche La Grande Rue Cuvée 1959
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, La Grande Rue Grand Cru
This completely change my preception of the vintage from Nicole, this is an absolute beauty. The other cuvees were good but this is mind-blowing. Only 2 barrels made. Super dense on the palate with good freshness to match with high tannins. Stunning wine!
