at father in law's birthday, his 88th! But this was still way too tight and not giving much... how long would this take to really find it's optimum level? maybe in 10years or more? Patience will be rewarded handsomely, for sure... but tonight it was a huge disappointment as it really wasn't opening, just giving hints of how great this will be in a long time... ah well.

Just brooding in the typical Gouges way, on a green vintage. One could feel the depth, despite the vintage, but in my opinion, this unmistakable Gouges does not serve well on a vintage such as '04. This is an exemple where I feel the admiration for the maker, but did not enjoy the bottle which is some distance from what I cherish of Burgundy. (it was rather bitter, with depth, full of earth but not enough fruits left and yet one could feel the profound potential in that direction... a weird profile indeed) A couple of years ago, from the same maker, same vintage but Les Porrets St Georges was more enjoyable, for sure. Cheers,

Rather flat... and not much life left.
Sad but this is part of our wine passion right?

But I had about 3 weeks ago two stunning 2003 bottles one was 'Les Folatieres' from Pierre Yves Colin Morey and the other 'Corton Charlemagne' from Dom. Pavelot. Both of them were splendid and in no way worrisome for the vintage. Of course I have had a few '03 which were pre oxed, but these two were certainly surprised us all. The only '09 I have yet opened was St Aubin En Remilly from Pierre Yves Colin Morey, and absolutely pristine it was, so I wouldn't be too worried, if you have a proper cellar. This is my humbly opinion only. Cheers,

I haven't touched it yet and was wondering whether you happen to've had a bottle in recent times and what you thought of it? Any thoughts on how much time it has left? Lots of people are a little concerned about the longevity of the 2009 white Burgundy. Thanks for any thoughts you'd like to share! Phil
