Unmistakably old world. All savoury on the nose - truffle, cedar, salami, and spices. Palate is medium bodied but robust. Perfect balance between red/dark fruit, and savoury notes. Quite tannic. Still young! Amazing p/q. — 2 years ago

Domaine Joliet Monopole Clos de la Perrière Fixin Premier Cru Chardonnay - Very pleasant surprise! Very developed for a 2009, but has a Dauvissat/Raveneau-ish style. Makes sense that this Cru was at one point considered for a Grand Cru classification. — 8 years ago

Still lots of fresh red fruit (cranberry and redcurrant), with some spice (nutmeg, clove, pepper) and leather and earth - delicious! — 6 years ago

Beautiful color. Light even for pinot. Approaching grignolino. Hard to describe. Cherry, chalky soil, a hint of pepper. I'm consistently shocked at the complex flavor journey many pinots can take you on. Body does not always mean bigger flavor, and lighter body does not always mean mighty flavors. — 9 years ago

Have not had this in about 3 years. Definitely needed to check in. Stunning nose. Sweet spices, bursting red cherry fruit, wet earth, sweet well integrated oak. Stunning aromas. Wow this has turned around. Palate is elegant and complex with tremendous depth. Sweet sappy fruit and a tiny bit of hard yet sweet tannin that needs maybe 1 hour to unfurl. Terrific intensity and freshness. Light yet packed and very complex. This has aged into something beautiful. — 8 years ago

Tight nose at the start. Cyndie says petroleum nose. I find it has opened up and I get the more unique burgundy flowers. But wish it had more structure underneath. A bit light there. But a fullness to the body sharia attractive. — 10 years ago
