Yummy pinot. Tasty, light. Had this with salmon and was great. Could drink it all night. — 3 years ago
One of the “Bourguignon” producers in the line-up, this examples from Jules Desjourneys was a clear outlier in the group. This was a 2010 and came across younger than anything else we enjoyed over the course of the evening. Popped and poured; no formal notes. The 2010 Fleurie “Chapelle des Bois” is locked up in oak but the fruit is there; dark brambles forever with some licorice as well. Unfortunately, it’s going to take a very long time for the oak to give up its grip on this one. Luckily, I think the quality of the fruit will last long enough to make it more enjoyable…eventually. Best after 2025 through 2040; which seems somewhat ridiculous to write. — a month ago
Beautiful aromas of red and black fruits, tobacco and earth with an unmistakable note of wet gravel. The full palate features Black Cherry/Berry/Currant fruit flavors with hints of vanilla, tar, black olives and the ever present mineral note. Well balanced and pretty complex. Chewy tannins. Long and lingering finish. Thanks for sharing, Chris B! — 4 months ago

Great nose, but overly sparkly, not sure if it’s too young, hard to discern the palate underneath — 16 days ago
