2007 Domaine Armand Rousseau Père et Fils Chambertin

Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

3/22/2016 - panda drinks burgundy wrote: 94 points

Not a big nose but quite attractive as it draws you in with red currants, sweet spice, hint of vanilla and mint. Fresh in the mouth with lively acidity, a sweet core leads to a lengthy & spicy finish, not hugely complex but quite sexy. Will certainly improve yet very approachable today.

This wine gets you excited at first sniff and sip, yet it turns monolithic as time passes. Perfumed, fruity, still lovely for its level but pricey.

Expressive nose of blackcurrant, fine oak and a hint of sewage. Dark, dense, smooth and exceptionally concentrated. In its early drinking window and again not for the purists but nonetheless well-made.

1945 Château Haut-Bailly

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more

This wine belies its age by decades. Medium garnet with only slight browning, quite transparent and very pretty to look at. The nose is clean, focus and majestic, with black cherry, dried plum and mild tertiary aromas in the background. Light on the entry yet feels substantial as it glides across the palate with a pure, vivid fruit core and perfectly balanced acidity. Impressive length, with tiny hints of tannin in the finish. A wine of first-growth quality that transcends its appellation.

1970 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche

La Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

12/23/2015 - panda drinks burgundy wrote: 96 points

Well-aged, but by no means tamed. The wine shows a dense core with a clear rim, an earthy nose accompanied by mushroom, black tea, forest floor, a slightly rustic profile. Turns more floral with air, with notes of red fruit, beef broth and exotic spices. Very alluring. The palate shows amazing depth and beautiful details, which evolves nicely as time progresses, with fruit becomes sweeter and more weighty. Finishes long with some fading tannins.

Classic nose of mature Bordeaux. Elegant, nicely fruited but not particularly complex, lively acidity gives this wine a much younger impression.

Stylish nose of dark fruit, with well integrated oak and a touch of earth. Pure, sweet and mildly spicy, with great finesse on a medium frame and a lovely length. A top-notch village wine.

1970 Pétrus

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend more

12/6/2015 - panda drinks burgundy wrote: 94 points

A seductive nose features an exotic bouquet of dark cherry, sandalwood incense, liqueur and sweet earth. Aged but vigor, the wine takes more than an hour to open up. Dense, finely knit with excellent concentration, just lacking that extra punch to spark some fireworks. Turns more cedary with alcohol sticking out slightly with time passes.

Lush, rich and complex, with great tension between decadent ripe fruit and racy acidity. Tastes luxurious. A treat.

Expressive nose of ripe fruit with honey, hazelnuts and a hint of smoke. Well balance and generously fruited, with great persistency and a lovely finish. An excellent showing.

1970 Château Lafite Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more

Smells like a wine from an older vintage. Earthy with dried plum, cedar, soy sauce, along with some medicinal notes. Younger than the nose suggests, fruit is alive and enjoyable. Graceful but a bit one-note.

Ripe nose of pear and honeycomb, with time some floral and mineral notes come through. Soft and relatively dry, with leaner citrus fruit and a nice length.

1990 Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more

11/30/2015 - panda drinks burgundy wrote: NR

Marred by a bretty nose, which softened with time but only by a small margin. This perfectly filled bottle tasted 10 years younger and not completely ready. Should have given it a super long decant. Couldn't have cared less by the people drinking it at the table tonight, a small glass was saved, the brett subsided significantly the next day, now it carried a more aromatic profile infused with a hint of dirty socks, fruit became sweeter, tannins softened…

Smokey, exotic and complex – the nose is just lovely. Soft on the entry with moderate intensity, fun to drink. This lineup of macon never disappoint.

Muted nose initially and then saline and some fruit emerges. Nice texture on palate with delicate fruit and decent length. Not impressed given the price.

2007 Domaine Méo-Camuzet Richebourg

Richebourg Grand Cru Pinot Noir more

11/14/2015 - panda drinks burgundy wrote: 94 points

Already showing some tertiary aromas, with floral notes and vosne spice behind. This Richebourg is more about finesse than power – layered, silky and well balanced, perhaps just lacking a touch of ripeness and complexity to be on the next level. Underwhelming for the price.

Very pale color, restrained nose to start, with some coaxing the wine reveals white flowers, pear, citrus fruit and fine oak that grows on you with time. Leaner fruit on palate with good texture and high acidity. Youngish impression with a finish that goes on and on.

Amazingly youthful. The wine opens with an arresting bouquet of smoke, truffles, tea, wet earth and ripe dark fruit. Sensual and vibrant, the palate gains substantial weight with air and turns sweeter, while the fruit is still fresh and evolve nicely with great persistency. Very little sediment.

This wine has everything in the right proportion. Clean, pure and exceptionally focused, the round palate sits more or less in the citrus fruit spectrum, with excellent intensity, long length and no heat. A seamlessly made Meursault.

Heady and intoxicating – the wine opens with a huge floral front, with fruit cake, classy oak and a bit of game in the background. Soft and feminine with a sweet fruit core, perhaps lacking some structure to go further.
