4/25/2024 - MJReb wrote: 93 pointsWhite orchard fruit, citrus (incl. orange peel), rich and with a superlative length. No need to keep it any longer (the color is a profoundly yellow and there is a slight oxidation). |

4/16/2024 - MJReb wrote: 91 pointsBlack fruit, blackberries, black cherries, spices and tons of tannins, very dense. Needs some years to come around. |

2015 Domaine Bernard Baudry Chinon La Croix BoisséeCabernet Franc more |
4/14/2024 - MJReb wrote: 91 pointsJust after a 2014 Croix Boissée: also mainly cherries, same aromatics, but more on the fruit, less structured, needs some time to get rid of its baby fat. I preferred the 2014 tonight. |

4/13/2024 - MJReb wrote: 93 pointsThe last bottle of a long evening, no detailled notes, but a lovely, harmonious, refined wine in a perfect shape. Incredible how CNdP can age, 29 years nevertheless. |

2012 Domaine Bruno Clavelier Corton-Rognet Vieilles VignesCorton Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
4/13/2024 - MJReb wrote: 93 pointsOn the dark red fruit side with soil and plums. Drunk after a perfect Vaucrains 09 from Gouges, this one is more massive and less filigree. Decanted 3 hours before, very good but only at the beginning of its drinking window. |

2009 Domaine Henri Gouges Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les VaucrainsPinot Noir more |
4/13/2024 - MJReb wrote: 94 pointsDark red fruit, plums, stony. This is quite sophisticated for a 2009. Another perfect bottle, I opened it 3 hours before. |

4/13/2024 - MJReb wrote: 94 pointsAgain very good showing and in line with the last one in December: Citrus, stony, some passion fruit and peach. Mouthcoating density, great length. Perfectly in its drinking window. |

2009 Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis 1er Cru La ForestChardonnay more |
4/13/2024 - MJReb wrote: 94 pointsAgain a pristine bottle, the 2009 needed some years to get rid of their baby fat, but since 4-5 years, they are really good. Not any issue with premox or other problems: clear color, ripe citrus with iodine, oyster shells and high salinity. Dense with very good length. A bunch of other Chablis producers would like their Grand Crus on this level. |

2008 Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les CrasPinot Noir more |
4/4/2024 - MJReb wrote: 93 pointsCherries and some red currant, tannins, soil, needs half an hour to breath and to gain volume. A wine from a cold year. The 2008 côte de Nuits are getting accessible, but it will never be a great vintage. |
