Delicious bottle of wine. Wonderful bouquet, fragrant Syrah aromas, tannic and well structured flavors. Great with fatty meats. Easy drinking. Had it at Chapeau with ribeye. Would definitely get again! — a year ago
Jaune vieil or
Nez chlorophylle mente fraiche raisins rôtis, cédrat confit herbe
Bouche ample suave manquant d un soupçon d acidité mais quelle onctuosité ce que côté solaire et classe la fois finale fraîche avec des note de chlorophylle écrasant les notes habituel du cépage riesling

Still plenty of life, but I’d drink now! — 2 months ago
Also labelled FB19
Definitely in a decadent vest
Past its peak
But what a spectrum of scents and flavours have developed
From moganhy to a marvellous cigar box
Pipe tobacco, a cherry just whispered
Tea leaves, pomegranate and so much more
Quite long
I would say that the fruit doesn't support the evolution of the tertiary and all up it is a shame
But still....
Mudgee 1979, chapeau

Jeunes vignes de Ruchottes Chambertin déclassées en Gevrey 1er cru... j’avais peur compte tenu de 2011 mais... wow. Il y a de la profondeur dans ce vin... et la magie des soeurs Mugneret ! Un fruit moins pur que dans d’autres cuvées, on est dans les fruits rouges, la fraise et cerise essentiellement mais un peu de bleuet aussi et ce parfum floral qu’on retrouve dans leur vin. Une bouche suave, soyeuse et une tres belle longueur. Chapeau d’avoir réussi ca sur 2011 ! — 3 years ago

Wow - seriously I like anything I’ve ever had. Mineral sweetness, almost like marzipan. Super nutty. — 2 years ago

One of the best raw wines I have ever had. Raw honey, black cherry, leather, mint. Any French wine maker willing to throw Tempranillo in with Syrah, Grenache and Merlot gets my vote! — 2 months ago
