Domaine De Blagny
Comtesse Bernard de Cherisey
La Genelotte - Monopole Meursault-Blagny 1er Cru Chardonnay 2015
Tart apple, white flower. Clean, crisp limestone like finish.
Interesting wine. Definitely not Meursault-like, blind I would have went chassagne. I might be a bit low on the rating, often I need a couple of tries on wines like this that taste different than expectation of location. At Hestia — 2 years ago

Blagny 1er Cru La Pièce-sous-le-Bois Rouge Pinot Noir 2002
2002/7/16 with katsuo with.m negi ponzu, fried kinu tofu and amazu Yamagata dashi, aji karaage, etc. I have a soft spot for this domaine and this wine I particular, as my wife and I loved it so much back in the mid-2000s - it was bright, juicy and crunchy but with sneaky depth. I cellared a few bottles, of which this was the last - and considering that the domaine was bought in 2007, there haven’t been any more for a long time. The second-to-last bottle was nice, but felt a bit stretched...but that wasn’t the case here. The nose shifted through game, bruised flowers, undergrowth, and cherry syrup fruit. The palate was led by firm acidity, but that crunchy fruit was still there. This really was quite multidimensional, and while it might be hard to imagine it improving much in the aggregate, it still let you dream. Not a bad way to go out. — 2 years ago

La Piece Sous le Bois Blagny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2017
Wow! J'ai recherché la cuvée après avoir entendu Benjamin Leroux en parler dans le podcast de Levi Dalton (I'll drink to that). Il était particulièrement enthousiaste pour ce climat en altitude (pour la Bourgogne, on s'entend), lequel est très majoritairement occupé par des vignes de Chardonnay (Meursault). Selon lui, le réchauffement climatique en fait un terroir idéal pour le pinot. Je dois lui donner raison avec ce 2017. Quel beau vin! Robe translucide et pâle, arômes dégourdis, de fruit, mais aussi de fleurs et de fines épices. En bouche, l'attaque est riche et de bonne concentration. La transition en milieu de bouche amène la fraîcheur et un côté minéral. Cette acidité porte le vin dans une longue finale. Les tanins sont nombreux et fins. Le vin est accessible, mais je crois qu'il a ce qu'il faut pour évoluer harmonieusement. J'ai beaucoup aimé et je le recommande vivement. — 4 years ago

Chapelle de Blagny Les Ravelles Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay 2015
Delicious! More oak than I expected over hazelnut, pear, mineral, perfume, and hints of citrus. Great acidity but not overpowering. — 3 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over a 90 minute period. The 2019 “La Pièce sous le Bois” pours a glossy ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, well…the nose is gorgeous, if not downright sexy. Freshly picked, perfectly ripened strawberries, porchini, forest floor and gentle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and voluptuous. This is very well-made. The fruit is such a star it’s almost as if this could have been from Santa Cruz Mountains. Drinking well now and has the ability to be enjoyed through 2029. — 5 months ago
