2018 Henri Germain et Fils Meursault 1er Cru CharmesChardonnay more |
5/4/2024 - hprphf wrote: 93 pointsNext to 17, fattier and rounder with some candy and pear characters to start, very ripe. Beautiful moderate reduction with air, quite profound and impactful showing the Meursault spiciness. 93 |

2008 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier MusignyMusigny Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
5/2/2024 - hprphf wrote: 94 pointsJFM Dinner: One bottle has some slight cork flavors, even if drinkable. Second bottle was much better, showing clear orange acidity and the intellectual character of Musigny; it really needs you to go to it. With that said, not quite as impressive as the last bottle from five years ago, somewhat lighter. 94 |

2003 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les AmoureusesPinot Noir more |
5/2/2024 - hprphf wrote: 92 pointsJFM Dinner: Quite sweet, even lightly syrupy, with good meatiness and details that still reflect somewhat of the terroir. 92 |

2009 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Clos de la MaréchalePinot Noir more |
5/2/2024 - hprphf wrote: 92 pointsJFM Dinner: Clear but reticent ripeness on the nose with beautiful spice. More perfumed over weighty, surprise of the night. 92 |

2017 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Chambolle-MusignyPinot Noir more |
5/2/2024 - hprphf wrote: 93 pointsJFM Dinner: Candied and much more accessible than the 17 Amoureuses, if obviously a village quality wine in comparison. Most tasters preferred this to be drunk today; if this is telling, this does seem like a lighter vintage at the domaine, even if quite pleasurable. 92-93 |

2017 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les AmoureusesPinot Noir more |
5/2/2024 - hprphf wrote: 94 pointsJFM Dinner: Very detailed, but after the two 19s the vintage lightness is amplified, not thin, just light, and not quite the punch or weight from the previous two wines. Contrary to usual Amoureuses this requires the taster to cuddle to it. Delineation and variety of flavors on palate very impressive. 94 |

5/2/2024 - hprphf wrote: 94 pointsJFM Dinner: Sturdier and more broody than the Fuées on the side, more Morey characters than I expected. With that said, muscle is here, will take many many years. 93-94 |

2019 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les FuéesPinot Noir more |
5/2/2024 - hprphf Likes this wine: 94 pointsJFM Dinner: First wine but my favorite tonight. Incredibly perfumed and candied, clear ripe vintage fruit quality, strawberry, floral, mineral, lightly meaty and so much going on. Francois from the domaine later remarked that Fuées is the loudest indicator of vintage, which is very much so the case here. 94+ |

4/23/2024 - hprphf wrote: 93 pointsIncredibly perfumed past that awkward Meo stage with baked and reticent aromatics. Spicy, candied red fruit, green stem, cherry leaf, smoky, lightly meaty, some tomato flavor in the background, lots of acidity. True to the Meo style of this era in an accessible fashion. 93 |

1991 La Pousse d'Or Volnay 1er Cru Clos de la Bousse d'OrPinot Noir more |
4/15/2024 - hprphf Likes this wine: 94 points01024. Intense rose petal, soaring hawthorn red fruit, lychee, ripe blue fruit, earthy, quite meaty, muddy, horse piss, lots of spice, dried chili powder, citrus and tropical acidity, orange flowers, vanilla and bakery spice. So ethereal and lifted to the best of tradition, with notable hint of rough even burnt tannins of Volnay. Such density and strength and so sweet. Old school winemaking at its best. 94-95+ |
