Les Mitans Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2016

Opened this for the wifey’s birthday. Sadly, it underperformed. Too much volatile acidity for our liking but it was still decent - very red-fruited and some lifted florals on the nose. The palate had quite a bit of grip for a Pinot, some darker fruits and a touch of game, plus some underlying minerality. Totally flat the day after, which shouldn’t be the case for a Burg this young. Alas, such is the risk of a high mileage bottle (France to Japan to Singapore to East Malaysia). — 2 months ago

I feel for you having to deal with poorly-stored wine so frequently.

Beaune-Grèves 1er Cru Pinot Noir

Wafting beautiful from the bottle, this a nice pinot noir offering from LaFarge, who apparently never disappoints. No need for decant — 9 months ago

Chiroubles Gamay 2017

Very stern and closed on opening. With air, there is some nice cherry fruit, medium body, good structure. This seems to be built to age 10+ yrs rather than for early enjoyment 🤷🏻‍♂️ — 8 months ago
