Community Tasting Note

Thursday, February 29, 2024 - Pierre Morey/Fourrier Dinner at La Paulée de Los Angeles (Bicyclette, Los Angeles): Deep ruby. Ripe, heady aromas. Shockingly full, rich, and chocolatey for a Gevrey wine. Dark cherry, licorice, savory notes, smokiness, and some alcoholic heat. Very tannic finish. I am not used to CSJ being heavy, but this is the largest scaled one I’ve ever had. A lot going on, but will it wind up being a great wine for the ages or just an overripe mess? I can’t say, and I think it will take another 20+ years to answer that question since the wine is so massive and young now.
