Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days and frankly, this was spectacular throughout. The 2020 pours a deep, ruby-purple with an opaque core and a magenta rim; medium+ viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine smells like walking into a European delicatessen; developing with notes of mostly ripe and some tart, black, red and blue fruits. There’s mixed brambles, fig, blueberry, lavender, black pepper, olive brine, a melange of cool and warm baking spices and rocky earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. It’s been a couple of years since I last enjoyed this vintage of Graillot and it remains absolutely brilliant. Drink now through 2040. — 7 hours ago

Noticeable oak on the nose. Tangy deep fruit, very clear with some salinity and violet. Lovely vosne spice, and with air black cherry and rose comes through. Lovely texture and character and Intense and long. Ina few years this will probably be better Very good — 2 months ago

This is just doing great. Aromatics were great on popping but they faded fast which is the only downside. It’s got great acidity and a nice long finish that sticks around. Listening to America the Beautiful :) Happy 4th! — 11 days ago

One of the most explosive, expressive 09’s I’ve had in recent memory, and one of my favorite Burgundy terroirs, 1er Cru Beaumonts is wafting from the glass tonight holding nothing back with layered and complex aromatics, a liquid cashmere palate with both power and finesse and a long, mineral inflicted finish. Exceptional showing. — 2 months ago
