Community Tasting Notes 5

    December 31, 2021 - First impression after opening and decanting is high-toned aromatics of peach-pit and a background of wet stone. It has Dominique's characteristic high-acid approach on the medium-weight palate and finish. May be getting close to its peak, as I don't think the fruit will hold out too much more than the next year or so although the Domaine's wines have fooled me in the past. Will see how it develops over dinner and will report back.

    April 20, 2021 - MM Zoom Tasting (Vancouver, BC): Drank next to the 2013 Domaine des Comtes Lafon Meursault Clos de la Barre. DIAM 30. Intense yet more airy and focused than the CdlB. Light matchstick notes, tons of saline, with a piercing lemon dry finish. Crisp and delicious

    August 2, 2019 - Carafé 30 minutes et servi frais vu la chaleur (après 15 minutes dans le verre la température était à point), il s'est avéré une coche au-dessus de la dernière dégustation, ayant digéré une partie de son élevage, ayant respiré pour la réduction, avec davantage de finesse. Un vin élégant et complexe: de la grande classe au-delà de son niveau d'appellation.

    March 6, 2017 - Ouvert une heure à l'avance. De l'élevage modéré qui est en accord avec le style du vigneron. Aucune lourdeur toutefois. D'un niveau 1er cru et très accessible malgré sa jeunesse.
