Vigne de l'Enfant Jésus Grèves Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Very deep in potting soil and garrigue ... leather and wet tobacco notes ... red plum and desiccated cherry ... earl grey tea ... needs some time to open.

Such infanticide! Note to future self, do not open any '10's until at least 2025+

Pretty deelish-barnyardy with terrific tart fruit, racy medium bodied wine, good intensity with a lingering finish

The '10 has the structure and fruit to go for the long haul though. #bouchard #beaune #greves #premiercru #burgundy #ronburgundy #littlebabyjesus #talladeganights #rickybobby #willferrell #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine

Aug 28th, 2019The first thing that surprises me is elevated acidity and excessive tearing. Medium plus alcohol. This doesn’t feel like aged grand cru. There is sous bois but not mushroom-y enough. I think this juice needs more aging. The wine is almost perfect.
