Community Tasting Note

  • Tenuta Stefan Likes this wine: 94 points

    May 2, 2015 - Perfect bottle. Served blind at Chez Fitz.
    Young, red velvet, transparent. The colour is very Burgundian.
    Floral, red berries, spice box, "expensive oak". A little bit malolactic and a hint of fudge. With time in the glass it shows more meat and dark berries, blackberries.
    Very elegant taste. Medium body with an aristocratic poise, thus feminim and sexy. Fresh crisp acidity, soft silky tannins. Even if this La Mouline is made in a lighter style it got lots of energy. It is like a Tsunami that never hits the shore. The same kind I often find in Chambertin. To quote my friend; "A perfect combo of weightless power and elegance".
    I got this wine blind, and I was totally off. At first I was in Chambolle-Musigny (on the nose), and after my first sips I ended up in Gevrey-Chambertin! But this is what makes it so fun with wine! It makes me more humble too :-)
