Clos Prieur Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2023

2023 vintage. Light-medium body. Initially pretty nose and flavors without trying-spearmint, raspberry, strawberry. Those impressions remained but dwindled with importance as rhubarb, clove and dark cherry steadily drifted in. A little substrate/carpet of dried earth that gradually gained strength. This is so youthful; a good 2-3 years necessary to even begin to speculate as to the ceiling and direction. 05.18.25. — 10 days ago

Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2022

2022 vintage. Medium body. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes. Bright nose and flavors. Too bright. Needs a solid half-decade to settle in, settle down and leave the night life behind. Could see the ceiling on this as a 9.4 in a decade+. 05.23.25. — 6 days ago

Mazy-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2020

Terrific effort and great value. Strawberries, cherries, plum and slate. Medium body, very spicy with great length. Best to wait a couple more years but delicious now. — 6 months ago

Les Jouises Vieilles Vignes Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2018

2024/9. Basically similar to the last bottle, but a little more integrated and open from the start - wild red fruit, forest, iron. — 8 months ago

Les Hauts Pruliers Nuits St. Georges Pinot Noir 2020

Good tipicity. Lots of concentrated ripe red and black fruit, but between the hint of barnyard, good oak integration, lower alcohol and elegant body it’s very well restrained and enjoyable. Maybe a bit rustic but very well done  — 9 months ago
