This is a great burgundy — pure flavor, clear, bright red fruit, medium acid, low tannins. At $75, it’s a good value, although I may still prefer the Domaine Coquard at $55 even more. — a month ago
Garnet with orange edge. Gentle and elegant aroma. Fresh initially, 1.5 hours, stabilized. Forest floor. Spices. Special fruitiness with passion fruits like. Taste is gentle sweetness first. Rounded. Medicine like aroma as well. stimulated to my brain. Robert Groffier Pete & Fils 14 @1900/G(18000), Fred, 241102 — 2 months ago
My continuing quest to taste as many 22’s as possible.
The nose shows, rich, candied and floral fruits that are: blackberries dark cherries, black raspberries, raspberries on the edges with just a touch of freshly picked rhubarb. Soft minerals & baking spices and bright candied dark, red and purple flowers.
The palate shows ripe, lush fruits of; blackberries, black raspberries, dark cherries, plum and poached strawberries. Dark chocolate, caramel notes, red cola & licorice, fresh & dry herbs, dark, smooth spices, dark, rich, forest floor w/ dry leaves, dry twigs, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg & vanillin, dry stone & top soil, barrel shavings, dry tobacco w/ ash, limestone, grey volcanics dark, red candied with some withering flowers with violets, excellent acidity with a round, lush, well made, balance, mid tension, elegant finish that last ninety seconds and lands squarely on spice, clove and dry minerals.
This should be cellared 8-10 and enjoyed over the next 15-20 years plus properly stored.
At $1,140 a bottle, a hard pass for many, but excellent wine with potential for another 2 points w/ age. — 15 days ago
Solid drinking village wine. — 3 months ago
Pnp beauty, completely open and giving wafting a distinctive Roumier raspberry and rose petal laced whole cluster perfume with a seductive and seamless palate with fine grained tannins and a long mineral inflicted finish. So much more accessible than 21’s right now which are far more closed and reductive. Last glass a couple hours open was just perfect Burgundy. Village at its finest. — a month ago
