Apr 2nd, 2021Showing great. I love Pezerolles from BG. Sappy cherries, very mineral, very airy, very perfumed. Just a gorgeous nose. Palate is voluminous, sweet, mineral and has wonderful freshness and velvety tannins. Sneaky persistent fruit on the finish. Wonderful. No rush.

May 19th, 2017Phillipe's 11's are just starting to get going. Classic Pezerolles nose. Minerals, earth, appealing depth. Confectionary sugar. Complex berry fruit. Really aromatic. Stoney. Palate is ripe, juicy and focused with terrific acids and lovely fruit and mineral core. Echoes on the finish with firm tannins. Needs an hour or two. These are built to age but in a vintage like '11 this can be enjoyable after 5-6 years and a decant. this really gets going after 15 minutes. Rich, textured still big and tannic but awesome and fun to drink.

Dec 16th, 2016Red licorice nose, floral bouquets, wet mossy forest floor. Out of the #coravin the front of the palate is a bit off putting in acidity & throws the whole thing off but this seems like it could balance out with some baked cherry & rhubarb flavors with time in bottle or decant 45 mins

Feb 15th, 2015Nothing obvious here. Patience required, patience rewarded. Tightly woven, black cherry, mint and a waft of smoke wrapped around a spine of acid. Compact, yet rewarding. More giving on night two.
