Fresh and well balanced. Delicious red fruit and nice intensity. #josephdrouhin #chambollemusigny #cotedenuits #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
A true experience. The color was beautiful and well intact. The nose bursted out of the glass with incredible complexity and elegance. Sweet black fruits, paprika, smoke, mushrooms, and just dying flowers dominated the nose and palate. The structure was well intact with silky tannins, fine acidity, and present alcohol. The wine just kept on going for at least 45 minutes in the glass and length on the palate was equally impressive. #drc #DRC #domainedelaromaneeconti #grandsechezeaux #cotedenuits #pinotnoir #burgundy #1947 #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
A dusty wine with edgy tannins and tough acid. The fruit was interesting but the balance was lost. #chambertin #louistrapet #gevrychambertin #cotedenuits #burgundy #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
This #chambertin unfortunatly never developed into anything too exciting. There was balance and strength but nothing to elevate it to a truly great level. #grandcru #pierrebouree #gevrychambertin #cotedenuits #burgundy #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Compact red and black fruit with a touch of spice and green tones on the nose. Medium intensity and medium complexity. The palate was faded, linear, and had a short finish. #burgundy #marsannay #pinotnoir #cotedenuits — 10 years ago
In an awkward spot and very young. Difficult to drink with heavy tannins and alcohol. Hopefully this will balance out and sweeten up. #josephdrouhin #chambollemusigny #amoureuses #premiercru #pinotnoir #burgundy #cotedenuits #ctbucklinwine #france — 9 years ago
Pretty with a red fruit and candies nose. #hudelotnoellat #nuitsstgeorge #premiercru #pinotnoir #burgundy #cotedenuits #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Truly amazing. This wine was flat and tasteless when first opened. 30 minutes later it developed into a rich and complex wine with sweet red and black fruit. The balance was perfect and the length was profound. #bonnesmares #pierrebouree #chambollemusigny #grandcru #cotedenuits #burgundy #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Needs lots of time. The nose and palate were complex and the fruit was starting to get delicious but the structure is still very firm. #claudedugat #charmeschambertin #gevrychambertin #grandcru #cotedenuits #burgundy #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
I tasted this #1985 #grandsechezeaux from #drc last year at this time. There has been some nice development. It's heavily perfumed with good intensity and concentration. The palate has some very nice meat and sweet fruit qualities. This will keep developing. #burgundy #vosneromanee #cotedenuits #pinotnoir #domainedelaromaneeconti #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
A very pretty and elegant wine with a touch of masculinity to the backbone. Sweet core of red fruit with herbs, truffle and smoke. The alcohol is the only thing out of balance. I don't see this wine getting any better. Fine length and med + intensity. #amiot #cotedenuits #chambollemusigny #premiercru #burgundy — 10 years ago
Fantastic burg from a wonderful vintage. Complex and dynamic nosed with med + intensity. Blend of primary and secondary notes with black cherry and leather at the forefront. Palate was well balanced and structured. The fruit was beginning to fade and sweeten up a bit. Delicious notes of earth, herbs, and leather. Faded a bit after 1 hr of being open. Med + finish. #domainegeorgesmugneret #chambollemusigny #premiercru #2002 #cotedenuits #burgundy #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Med concentration with a ruby core and salmon-orange rim. Evolved nose with no freshness and abv sticking out. Med intensity and complexity showing ripe red fruit and lots of forest aromas. The structure was a little flabby with med acid and gritty tannins. No defined fruits or aromatics with a med finish that left some dryness on the palate. #jeangrivot #vosneromanee #cotedenuits #pinotnoir #burgundy #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Drying out. Some interesting notes but nothing to write home about. #closdelaroche #pierrebouree #moreysaintdenis #cotedenuits #burgundy #pinotnoir #negociant #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Iteresting but losing its umph. The structure is faded and the fruit is drying out. #georgeslignieretfils #clossaintdenis #grandcru #moreysaintdenis #burgundy #pinotnoir #cotedenuits #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
Sweet old burgundy with no structure left. Thiswine was full of mature red fruit and forrest aromas. Unfortunately there was little lift other than the fact that it was produced during #WWII #1943 It is still incredibly impressive. #closdesvougeot #josephdrouhin #burgundy #cotedenuits #wartimevintage #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago
