A profound wine of Grand Cru complexity. Forest floor, mushroom tea, hard crack caramel and quatre epices. Completely secondary aromas and flavors, but still fresh and full of potential. Unfined and unfiltered, yet whistle-clean and showing great promise for another decade of pleasure. Wines like this re-define the quality and potential of the southern Cote de Beaune. #vincentgirardin #maranges #pinotnoir #cotedebeaune — 6 years ago

Showing much more energy than I would have thought. Ripe fruit and warmth but well balanced with razor sharp acid. #louisjadot #pernandvergelesses #cotedebeaune #chardonnay #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago

High-toned, tense and shows the tiniest bit of Meursault-like tender green herbs on the nose. Judicious, subtle oak; ample salinity shines on the finish. Classy white Burgundy that tastes $25 more expensive than it is. #garaudet #monthelie #chardonnay #cotedebeaune — 6 years ago

Next to the 07, 08, 09, and 10 this wis the most developed and oxidized. Interesting nutty notes but the acid was falling structure was deteriorating. #louisjadot #chardonnay #cotedebeaune #ctbucklinwine #burgundy — 7 years ago

The 2010 was showing best in this vertical and definitely has a bright future. Still quite tight. Great complexity, and well structured. Seamless balance and impressive length. #louisjadot #pernandvergelesses #cotedebeaune #chardonnay #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago

Incredible purity and elegance. Cherries on top of more cherries, with a fine, tense mineral core. More St. Aubin than Volnay, if I were pressed for comparisons. Ridiculous value here. #florentgaraudet #monthelie #pinotnoir #cotedebeaune — 6 years ago

So fine. Always one of my favorite Burgundy estates. Wild fraises, sasparilla, birch bark, quatre epices. Great tension between nervy acids, ripeness and elegant minerality. Haunting, mouthfilling, incredibly long on the finish. #pernandvergelesses #pinotnoir #cotedebeaune — 7 years ago

A lovely, accessible Saint-Aubin village. It's opulent yet there is excellent balance and a lovely freshness on the finish, eluding to finesse and elegance. #chardonnay #saintaubin #cotedebeaune — 7 years ago
