Domaine Vincent Ledy
Savigny-les-Beaune Pinot Noir 2014
Whoa. Nose announces itself as top 1er cru or better off the bat. Deep almost exotic spice. Tightly bound medium cherry gorgeous. Truly unreal.
Plate is quite good. Delicious. Medium cherries. Not as insane as the nose on open. Tastes like crazy well made village wine (which it is)

Ariavecchia Greco di Tufo 2007
Effing epic.
Nose has deep orange peel. Orange flower. Deep dense. A great wine kind of nose. It has that complexity and density that you expect from a world class wine that someone has cellared for a long long time. Like a spring breeze In heaven. So complex.
Palate first hits you with density and minerality and a complex melange of green apple and stone fruits. But old stone fruits. Still bright. Juicy. Definitely has age. So complex. Just blasts different parts of the palate with different flavors all at once.
Finish is long and godly.
If you abandon your burgundy privilege this can compete with top wines from burgundy. It’s amazingly well made. A great vintage. Just a different profile.
An hour in this is a ten. It was a 9.4 on open. — 11 days ago
