Community Tasting Notes 24

  August 8, 2023 - Beaucoup de Beaujolais (Monarch Restaurant, Hotel Deco, Omaha, Nebraska): One of the “Bourguignon” producers in the line-up, this examples from Jules Desjourneys was a clear outlier in the group. This was a 2010 and came across younger than anything else we enjoyed over the course of the evening. Popped and poured; no formal notes. The 2010 Fleurie “Chapelle des Bois” is locked up in oak but the fruit is there; dark brambles forever with some licorice as well. Unfortunately, it’s going to take a very long time for the oak to give up its grip on this one. Luckily, I think the quality of the fruit will last long enough to make it more enjoyable…eventually. Best after 2025 through 2040; which seems somewhat ridiculous to write.

  November 25, 2022 - 开瓶即饮，中宝石红色，闻香有果梗带来的植物根茎气息和辛辣感，泥土混合着莓果的香气，入口酸度很高，线性，单宁紧涩，有一点儿糊嘴，细砂纸颗粒，单宁在嘴里化得快，强度不大，酒液很咸，咸矿石的感觉，樱桃和蔓越莓一类红果香气，还有车厘子一类偏深色的水果，伴随着淡淡泥土气息，木质香气和香草味一直延伸到余味，细腻悠长，有着一种精妙感。这时候的酒的表现是含蓄的，能感觉出有复杂度，有深度，集中度也不错，质朴的风格在精致的余味中得到升华。醒酒器一个小时，酒的状态已经变得开放，总体感觉更加甜美一些，木质香气，红果味，带着些许桂皮香料，还有泥土和石灰的气息，入口单宁柔和了一些，带梗的紧涩感依然明显，细沙的颗粒，中等略偏轻的酒体，矿物感清晰，果味浓缩，伴随着果梗的植物气息，后段一些桂皮香料和辛辣感，余味是红果味和质感高级的木质香气。处在适饮期的一支酒，除了佳美的单宁质感略粗一点以外，无论是酒的细腻程度还是精妙感都如同一支传统的勃艮第，十多年的陈年褪去了新年份佳美的后段的那种燥热感，让它变得优雅而又平和，恰如其分地展现出 Fleurie 最温柔的一面。厚积薄发，娓娓道来，非常经典的风格

  June 28, 2022 - Appearance is still young. Perfumed violet, dried hawthorn, juicy black cherry, bright sour cherry, a bit of tar and smokiness, wet stone and hint of musk. On the palate it is elegant and silky giving arrays of flavours. Lively wild black and red berries, racy freshness, transparent minerals with some savoury earth and dark spices. Lovely weightlessness. 13.0% abv.

  April 11, 2022 - Bright red, good fruit, especially tart cherries and cassis. Balance and flavor improved four hours after decanting. Quite nice.
