Community Tasting Note

Sunday, November 6, 2016 - The "Clos" dinner - aka Burgundies from Clos, or "walled" plots (Bar-a-Thym, Singapore): A tad light and simple, certainly when put next to a the 2002 vielles vignes from the same producer, but this was very enjoyable. The nose very decent, showing a drift of sour cherries patted down with nice accents of herb, earth, and a bit of coffee grounds. Clearly from a producer that did not destem much. The palate was nice too. Certainly on the light side for a Grand Cru, but it was very charmingly 1993, with lots of juicy red fruit and fresh acidity, and then a little spice at the finish, which ended with a chew of fine soft tannins and a little fresh lift. Drinking at peak now.
