Found this at Huitres de Saumons de Passy in Paris. So great with everything on their menu! — 2 years ago
2014 vintage. Old-school dynamite. Chalk dust for days and mouth-puckering dryness. No evidence of global warming in this particular go about. Medium body. Has at least another 7-8 years in this personality but possibly double that. Intriguing. 8.23.24. — 3 months ago
Riserva clou 2016 — 2 years ago
Nice premier cru from St Aubin with just over 10 years age. Was honestly hoping for a bit more overall but this was an excellent pairing with some blackened sea bass. Not okay at all, definite green minerality characteristic that is hard for me to describe. Medium minus acid and the finish isn’t quite all encompassing. But still a nice wine. — 3 years ago

Fluid cherry-ruby dress. Nose: red fruits, spices, vegetable. Smooth mouth, light, flexible body. Notes of Pinot Noir and Gamay well restored, assembled in harmony in an accessible and complex bouquet with many shades: cherry, cloves, pepper, strawberry, blackberry, rose, violets. Pretty vegetable notes, almost menthol, dry herbs, hay. Tertiary notes slightly smoked/vanilla, suggesting a possibility of Burgundian evolution. Very nice work at a correct price.

Sipping Fine Wine
Bright lemon color with aromas of citrus, stone fruits and flinty floral and biscuit notes. On the palate flavors of crisp apple, pear and lemon citrus with notes of white flowers and garden spice. Long finish, vivid acidity ending with citrus, bread dough and mineral spice. Nice! — a month ago
