Community Tasting Notes 10

  July 31, 2023 - PnP. ABV 13%. €33.40 before shipping and tax charges. Still fairly dark in color, not a lot of development yet. Clean nose, elegant and floral. Palate is a bit more advanced, tannins are partially resolved, firm mid-palate. Very good concentration and depth for a 1er Cru. Spicy and long finish. Drinking now with impressive structure for further evolvement. Probably slightly behind the wonderful ‘09 vintage. A phenomenal QPR wine at the price point, sadly this producer is no longer in existence, ‘09 was the last vintage.

  May 15, 2023 - Superb white Burgundies: Brought this as an extra, slow-oxed for five hours. Most guessed Chambolle because of the superb floral nose that had just the right amount of lift and VA. Palate had pretty, if a little rustic fruit. A 1999 at its peak now. My first time trying this maker and he definitely had the magic touch.

  December 31, 2020 - Probably a little old. Not much fruit left but some interesting secondary characteristics, particularly bacon. Great balance.

  August 16, 2016 - Very dense, cranberry color. Not opaque but certainly cloudy. The nose is bursting with bright cherry fruit. A hearty burgundy that is deep and full. Lacks elegance but has great fruit and spice on the palate. Works well if paired with the right food. Could sit a few more years to reach peak. (88)
