Clos des Chênes Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2017

2017 vintage. Staff Burgundy tasting. Last tasted 1.24.26 (9.2), 7.7.25 (9.2) and 1.5.25 (9.3). Really unified and consistent with a medium body currently. 10 bottles left but stock option of 3 cases of the selfsame 2017 available. Will be exercising that option. This was showing really well today. 2.17.26. — 17 days ago

Vieilles Vignes Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2016

I heard a rumor that there’s a competition between DRC and Jean-Michel Guillon when it comes to the amount of new French oak used. While I can’t substantiate that, I can confirm that the oak used for this bottle smells expensive and it certainly seems to work in Guillon’s favor because this is a really tasty treat. The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin “VV” pours a deep ruby with a transparent core; medium viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe and tart red fruits: Bing cherry, strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate, porcini, dry forest floor, and beautiful balance of cool and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and absolutely delicious. I tend to be fearful of liberal use of oak but in the end, I try not to judge if the wine is in balance and in this case, it most certainly is. Drink now through 2036+. — 7 months ago

@Severn Goodwin indeed! It was the 1990 Riserva. It was a good bottle.

Les Perrières Pommard Pinot Noir 2018

2018 vintage. Some rusticity. Some earthiness. Some dark fruited goodness. Medium body. Decently balanced now. Nothing in front dominating/focused and this needs another 3-4 years to really start rolling but slowing coming into port when it wants to. Picked up the last 2.5 cases around $48 a btl resto cost. 2.11.26. — 23 days ago
