Chambolle-Musigny Pinot Noir
2023. Dark red raspberry. Pepper and a touch of baking spices. Super powerful. This is not a delicate pinot. There are wines that are a privilege to drink. This is that. — 2 months ago
Domaine Leroy
Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2006
The very pleasant nose did not translate to taste in the way expected of this maker. Twenty years later, I believe this wine is still evolving, requiring more patience. The old adage about Burgundy applies - you are going to kiss some frogs before they become prince. Having said that, a long decant was useful. — 3 months ago
Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé
Cuvée Vieilles Vignes Musigny Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2009
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hour. The 2009 pours a deep, slightly dull ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with beguiling notes of strawberry, raspberry, dried red flowers, sous bois, mushroom, licorice, dried green herbs, and gentle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Despite the power of the vintage, this is impressively balanced and only seemed to gain energy as time went on. Drink now with patience through 2059. — a month ago

Medium dark rubi robe with no signs of aging. Nose of dark berries, asian spices, crushed flowers, liquorice and cedar wood. Oh so elegant and complex, this is a kaleidoscopic and dizzying wine with great length and impossible to describe charm. What a great bottle !!!! — 23 days ago
