Maison Bertrand Ambroise
Le Rognet Corton Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2017
Boulder Burgfest Paulee. From double magnum. Tasty, but hard to really appreciate this after so many older wines. — 5 years ago
Ziereisen
Gestad Syrah 2022
This is backwards out of the gates but it’s all there. Huge density, power and concentration while remaining fresh and incisive. Needs an hour and I will be back. Needed way more than an hour. Still on day 2 this is dense and sinewy. Really structured but so fresh. Acts like high end Crozes or baby Hermitage. On day 3 this has finally come around! Like the 18 and 15! Unreal aromas and so expansive. Sweet, dense and long 9.4 to 9.5. But it was like pushing a boulder up a cliff. — 4 months ago

"Musigni" Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2002
Boulder Burgfest Paulee. I missed one! — 5 years ago
"Odedi"
Reddish/ purplish in color with light intensity.
Soft on the nose and medium in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red currants, cherries, earth, black coffee, light oak, spices, herbs and black tea.
Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty Pinot Noir from Oregon. Elegant and nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel.
This Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is complex, spicy and entertaining.
Wine Enthusiasts 92 points. Wine Spectator 88 points.
Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 7 to 10 years. A little longer for this Magnum.
Good by itself as a sipping wine.
100% Pinot Noir grapes were grown on volcanic soils from 25 year old vines. Drunk from a Magnum.
13% alcohol by volume.
