Community Tasting Notes 7

  November 10, 2021 - I think this is maybe a few years past prime, and it appears to be well stored. Almost a pretty nose for a Grand Cru Corton, red fruited and very clean. I’d read notes mentioning dirty or unclean notes but didn’t get that here. Finish seemed a little weak, turning mildly sour on the finish.
  
  Second day update. This is a great wine lol. Left half the wine sit in the bottle overnight and wow did some air add depth. Lost the sour finish and filled out beautifully.

  December 2, 2018 - Some Sunday wines (Chicago, IL): Much, much better than the last bottle from the same lot, which was way too poopy. To be sure, there was plenty of that here as well, but there were still some undercurrents of interesting fruit and earth. The palate at this point is all structure -- acid and tannin. This isn't the softest wine, and the fruit is dried and attenuated.

  November 10, 2018 - HDH Bordeaux Auction; 11/9/2018-11/10/2018 (Chicago, IL): Too stewy and stinky. Something wrong here.

  August 25, 2015 - Not quite mature in terms of tertiary flavor, but the structure is very much resolved so it's accessible and very drinkable, not necessarily a given with this cuvee. The fruit's mellowed into a supple, mellow Rioja-like profile but instead of feeling autumnal it picks up some cooling minty/pine needly notes, a very fresh type of green. This is a satisfying drink now but for my taste I'd want to hold it another few years and see if some meatier funk is waiting to come out of this, which I imagine isn't far around the corner.

  April 7, 2015 - Stored at 55 degrees, humidity controlled, since release.
  After decanted and open for half an hour:
  Nose tight, but lovely full bodied, silky burgundy with soft tannins and good balance. Fruit ok, but hopefully will open up and show a bit more.
  An hour later: rounded out a bit, but not much more fruit.
