La Paulée de New York Grand Tasting (Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers - New York NY): Walk around tasting. Very big, seems a little brawny but is also clearly balanced and (nearly) accessible already. Too many 2013s tried to make a silk purse from a sow's ear, but this Bonnes Mares is exactly what the vintage could nicely produce. This should drink well even in just another year or two.

With no aeration, this bottle is still easy to access. Red fruit, sweet, a little bit wild and cook fruit aroma. Medium- body. low tanning and acidity, very flat and light. more chambolle village style.

Musique & Vin Wine Tasting (Château du Clos de Vougeot): Tasting, brief note. Cross-section of berries with mostly black fruit. Great savory spice, some earth. Lots of structure, but easily also in balance. VG+ potential, but needs a decade in the cellar.
Wonderful to taste Drazeys, Fuees and Bonnes Mares together, all three levels nearby in the same north end of Chambolle.

Tasting: I have previously had the 2003 vintage of this wine, and it was a lot fuller and probably slightly better.
Quite light, and quite chambolle.
