Had it with Tony. Zero complaints. Pretty damn perfect — 5 years ago
Excellent. All in balance and plenty of distinct berry earthy autumnal notes fading in and out to keep it interesting through dinner at Amah. Gordon’s import 2005 now Becky Washerman or Grand Cru Selections. — 5 years ago

Always been a favorite CH vineyard for me. Old, dry farmed, shot Wente planted in 1968 at 1200ft elevation. Sadly, this vineyard was ripped out this year 😑 Gorgeous wine. Harmonious, seamless texture with all the breadth I love in CA CH with plenty of acid to hold it all together. Walks the line of richness and focus, like great Meursault. Creamy yet departs mineral and gripping. Fresh meyer lemon curd, ripe yellow apple, crushed stones, cream, apple blossoms, melon skin and verbena. 40% N. oak, Damy/Sirugue — 7 years ago
2020 Prunier-Bonheur Monthelie Red Burgundy — 2 years ago
Medium Ruby with complex aromas of ripe red fruits, floral spice and cedar notes. On the palate layered flavors of ripe cherry, plum and blackerry with notes of cacao, vanilla, spice and oak. Fine drying tannins, still tight, long savory finish, ending with fruit, sweet spice and slight earthy mineral notes. Very nice! — 4 years ago
Translucent garnet color. Primary aromas of tangy red berries. Typical wooded Burgundy farming, and undergrowth notes, humus. The tannins are finely integrated. Light to medium-bodied wine supported by a balancing freshness. Good quality, but it remains expensive for what it is compared to neighboring regions: Sancerres, Coteaux champenois for example.
Robe grenat translucide. Arômes primaires de petits fruits rouges acidulés. Élevage bourguignon boisé typique, et notes sous-bois, humus. Les tanins sont finement intégrés. Vin léger à mi-corsé porté par une fraîcheur équilibrante. De belle facture, mais ça reste cher pour ce que c’est au regard des régions voisines: Sancerres, Coteaux champenois par exemple. — 4 years ago
Delicious. Smooth. Got this from premier. — 5 years ago
Great harmony for current release, minerality, acidity and fruit all together without too much “baby fat”. Enjoyable even when it was served too warm. — 7 years ago
Compared to 2001; leafier, mintier, greener. Prunier, figgier, meatier. Soy sauce, mushroom, forest floor, bacon fat (could be just less Brett than 2001), pencil shavings. — 3 years ago

Another super earthy version but not as silky or dynamic as others. Rotting leaves and singed bay leaf on the nose with a ganache accent that provides some intrigue. The mouthfeel is a little thin on this one. A good wine but not in the upper tier of my Burgundian adventure. — 5 years ago
