Had the 2016 at Chateau Cos d’Estournel two days ago. It is in a quiet period. Strongly recommend waiting.

2019 Domaine Didier Fornerol Côte de Nuits Villages Pinot Noir

91 points

People who taste this and give it an 89 are people who give ‘02 Krug a 93 for having too much bruised apple, or the provenance is poor This is the best sub-$40 young red Burgundy I have tasted. Most of the comments resonate, save the tannins are more present than stated (mild but NOT subtle), the fruit is young and not fully integrated because it’s an infant Burgundy, yes the alcohol is currently noticeable in the late palate but give it time, the complexity is greater than stated, and the finish is long. This is a wine to buy 10 cases of and serve as house red. I see mushroom in its future in 2039. I strongly disagree with a sub-90 rating for this wine.
