Oh man. What a depth of flavor.

A study in pear. Dry and light.

Floral cherry blossoms as well. — 3 months ago

Wow! Superbe vin. Fruits noirs, un tout petit peu de boisé encore, anis étoilée. Une bouche pleine, gourmande, puissante mais avec classe et élegance, superbe texture soyeuse, très long en bouche. 93-94

Grogeous bottle, dark fruit, spices, a touch of oak still. Full bodied butmwith such a superb texture, silky, classy and very lengthy. — 2 years ago

Biting heat. Angry green spice. All the herbs are melded into a single molten flavor. Crazy, beautiful stuff. — 4 years ago

Textboox Bordeaux, toujours la meme constance avec PC. Café, cuir animal, graphite, une touche végétale. Belle longueur en bouche et en finale. — 2 years ago

Was this a Rhône blend in a previous vintage, or was I rating another wine? Perhaps the varietals change from year to year, so long as it represents “one valley”, i.e. Walla Walla. Regardless, this vintage is a nice Bordeaux style blend, 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc. Good stuff! It’s a big wine with balanced acidity. I enjoyed this as a cocktail wine. The mouthfeel is rich and thick, but not cloying. The use of oak is admirably restrained. It appreciated in flavor after some decanting. — 3 years ago

Superb Meursault, fresh, elegant, classy yet rich and full with a dense and savoury texture, great length and a finish that leaves us wanting more.

Superbe Meursault, riche, frais, fin, élégant mais riche, plein wt savoureux, une belle densité tout en étant minéral avec une très belle longueur et une finale qui fait qu’on en redemande. 92-93

Missing green Chartreuse? This is probably your best alternative. It does show a bit more citrus and vanilla as opposed to savory/mountain herbs. — 2 years ago

Nez riche avec une forte impression sucrée que l’on retrouve en bouche aussi, gras, rond avec un peu d’acidité, finale avec de l’alcool et comme un sucre résiduel, 89. Clairement identifié comme Cotat.

Blind tasting lunch 2009 theme. Nose with strong sugar and sweetness impression that we find on the round and fairly fat palate, a little bit of acidity to balnce it but a finish with some alcool and residual sugar, clearly identified as F. Cotat. 88-89 — 3 years ago

Once again very nice, a touch buttery and with some lemon zest, fresh and nice vivid and energetic structure. 90-91

Magnifique et complet encore une fois, touche beurrée et citronnée, tout en fraîcheur et saveur ayant une belle charpente d’acidité bien dosée. 90-91 — 4 years ago
