Bernard Dugat-Py

Coeur de Roy Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2009

Medium deep garnet, ruby core with medium light garnet rim . This is quite meaty and deep on the nose , with earthy dark cherry , porcini , sweet blackberry and spiced sous bois . On the palate this is quite severe and serious , darker fruits , ripe blackberry , cherry and hint of blackcurrant, herbal hints. Quite gritty , slightly drying tannins , fresh acidity . Earthy , dusty dark cherry edged finish , ok medium length. Quite ambitious for a village and arguably not ready yet , tannins need a little more time to integrate. From now and over the next 5 years, if not longer . — 2 months ago

@Andrew Cullimore i’m still sitting on my ‘ 05’s from this producer. Stylistically not everyone’s cup of tea..

Yes , I would agree with you there @Ira Schwartz , and no it’s not my preferred style , but it is certainly a well made wine . Based on my experience with 2005 in general , you will probably need to leave your Dugat Py’s another decade !

Domaine Sylvain Pataille

Clos du Roy Marsannay Pinot Noir 2019

Too bad that more people have discovered the wines of Sylvain Pataille. Still well priced but more competitive to buy them. — 4 months ago

Château Suduiraut

Ancien Cru du Roy Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2001

Prachtige Sauternes. Deze jaargang is geweldig, met een heerlijke balans door de mooie zuren. Waar ik over het algemeen geen groot fan ben van Sauternes, heb ik hier ontzettend van genoten! Gedronken om onze eerste plaats te vieren voor het NK blindproeven. — 2 months ago

Domaine Faiveley (Joseph Faiveley)

Clos du Roy Mercurey 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2021

Light medium ruby , wide pink rim . Fresh rose , raspberry , strawberry with hints of hedgerow. On the palate mostly ripe , light red fruits , strawberry and raspberry mostly with good freshness and just a hint of spice . Ripe but lightly gritty tannins, fresh sappy acidity . Medium length . Lovely now and over the next 5-8 years . Not complex or thought provoking but pure , fresh and enjoyable. — 2 months ago
