12/4/23, 9:24 PM - Loved reading this. One of the more exciting wines im hanging on to. The 2005 was an epiphany wine for me a couple of years ago. Im suspecting this thing will keep getting better and better.
6/6/23, 12:19 PM - Cork
5/27/23, 7:26 AM - 5 days in advance?! I know they are young but seems like they wouldn’t show the best after that much air.
4/20/23, 5:02 PM - Don’t these Fourrier gevrey wines last forever?
4/20/23, 5:01 PM - Hold or drink? What’s your recommendation?
1/27/23, 6:41 PM - I want to be your friend. I make good conversation and will review notes from Dale Carnegie’s book before coming over.
1/19/22, 7:55 PM - Did you have to make reservations or other arrangements to go tasting at gouges or did you just show up? Do they charge like they do in Napa?
7/24/21, 9:52 AM - Saw a few entries for this wine under a different designation (eg without tenimenti)
6/7/21, 1:35 PM - Love this comment back and forth. COWineLover, where in CO are you? I’m in Boulder and it sounds like we appreciate the same sorts of wines!
5/2/21, 5:10 AM - Drink now? I have one of these bottles in my mortet bin but have managed to keep my paws off of it.
4/27/21, 9:26 PM - Looks like your experience on lack of fruit is unique based on the other reviews. Is it possible that the wine was corked? Other than smell, faded fruit is one of the hallmarks.
4/23/21, 8:13 PM - What is this conversation I stumbled upon? I’m coming over too! I have a cellar full of bdx to contribute. Just let me know which bank and years we are aiming for!
4/24/21, 8:09 AM - Boulder Colorado. Where are you guys?
3/25/21, 8:33 PM - I encountered a bit of the rubber tennis ball smell on the nose, especially initially. Is this the reduction you speak of? Or is it the oak showing pronounced?
2/19/21, 6:57 PM - Thanks for the note. We opened one this week and didn't connect to it at all due to the high oak. I will take your advice and hang on to my remaining two bottles to see if anything evolves.
2/6/21, 9:02 AM - Great suggestion! I have been reluctant to blow a bunch on Krug or Dom since $150-200 can get me something really really enjoyable from burgundy. To make it worthwhile, I will need to find better friends to share and appreciate champagne with I suppose!
1/26/21, 5:43 PM - Ha Ha! Take a look at my D tasting note entry. I had the exact same ranking as you! ACDB.
11/5/20, 7:18 AM - You are making me think that my bottle was bad. Mine was muted with just a punch of heavy mouth feel acidity.
10/14/20, 9:50 AM - So much of our appreciation of fine wine is dictated by the environment in which it is consumed. Love how you captured that in your note.
9/17/20, 5:37 PM - Cork. Edited original post.
6/21/20, 3:18 PM - I read somewhere that while its from the 2005 vintage, it was aged in tanks and was only recently bottled. I really enjoyed mine as well.
5/23/20, 8:26 PM - Ha!
5/20/20, 4:47 PM - Did you decant?
5/5/20, 7:12 PM - Just opened mine. Couldn’t agree more. Amazing
4/30/20, 7:21 AM - But did you enjoy the wine? How about relative to the others?
5/1/20, 5:50 AM - Thank you for the thorough reply! I have really been enjoying every bottle of their wine I have had. I was wondering how they handled the 2011 vintage and also if there is an appreciable difference between their negociant and domaine wines.
4/25/20, 10:07 AM - Any chance it was a bad bottle? Seems like your experience is way different than other notes on CT.
4/14/20, 8:58 AM - Sounds like a memorable experience. Thank you for sharing!
2/22/20, 8:05 AM - Drink now or hold?
2/19/20, 7:29 AM - So you would wait 1-2 more years for tannins to mellow?
1/12/20, 6:22 AM - Thanks for the note! I have one of these as well and wanted to open it alongside a comparable riesling to pull out the difference between modern vs. old vintage. Any suggestions on what I should drink alongside? Was looking at a 2016 Urziger Wurzgarten.
12/27/19, 4:57 PM - Thanks for the note! Super helpful. Sitting on a few of this and am making a plan for consumption.
12/26/19, 12:27 PM - Mmmm...beef Wellington
12/15/19, 2:14 PM - Thanks for the review. I am hanging on to one of these. Shall I drink now or does it still have more to go?
Thanks for letting us know about this problem. We will review your comments and be in touch soon with an update.
