January 26, 2024 - Lunch de la Ligue du vieux poêle (Restaurant Bagatelle): Servi un peu chaud au départ, j'ai eu plus de mal à le saisir et l'apprécier à sa juste valeur. La bouche ronde et pleine, avec une belle concentration, un certain boisé, c'est plein et savoureux mais la finale manque un peu de précision. Je l'ai mieux goûté par le passé. 92+ pts
July 22, 2023 - Not as good as the other ones I had … reductive
July 22, 2023 - Réduit mais ça s’estompe, amertume légère en finale mais une belle texture et équilibre d’ensemble. 90-91
Slight reduction that goes away, slightly sour finish but otherwise gorgeous balance and texture.
January 30, 2023 - Chez Dalluge does Momofuko w/ Champagne, Whites, & Reine des Bois Vertical (Chez Dalluge, MN): Light-medium plus color. Drank a glass over an hour plus. I loved this, dense and full bodied, showing a maturity that binds grace and compexity; lanolin, beeswax, apple, peach, this one also really pops on the palate, oily, lemon oil, and very mineral dense through the mid and back end with a great finish.
January 30, 2023 - Siggy's btl tonight at Dave Ds fabulous dinner on bone chilling MN night. So long to January! Captivating tonight for its balance, class and seemingly weightless elegance while still delivering a sense of plushness. Excellent fruit purity with an orchard fruit domination but just enough lemon to add cut & lift. Very Chassagne & a fun contrast alongside my '10 Francios Carillon Puligny Montrachet Referts.
December 24, 2022 - I love Ramonet, but I did not like this. There was an overt oak presence that never really resolved itself, even after 17 hours. Rich and oaky and lacking cut and freshness. It was coming across as one of those overoaked, overly rich California Chardonnays that I have been trying to avoid by gravitating to white Burgundy. This was deeply disappointing to me.
December 23, 2022 - [Vinum Friday Funday 12/23/22]
Slightly reductive nose, slight honeysuckle and butterscotch, ripe apples and pear. Palate of intense ripened tree fruit, apple, pear, noticeable coconut/toastiness on the finish. Opens up quite nicely, well balanced, rounded but not flabby. Like others said, maybe a touch too much oak. Still a nice wine though. 91-92
December 17, 2022 - Bryant's Send Off Party (Noreetuh): Third time tasting this wine and it has turned out much better. Opulent with lightly electric house style on the palate. 93
November 19, 2022 - Bad wine it turned
August 26, 2022 - Dégustation à la Prunelle blancs 2014. A pris du temps à s’exprimer mais quel vin une fois qu’il a pris de l’air, superbe texture et une longueur impressionnante..
2014 white Burgundy tasting. Wine of the night with Buisson-Charles Bouche Cheres. Needed some air to start the seduction, wow. Gorgeous texture and long delicious finish. 93-94
