9.7

This is the best wine William has ever made. I am blown away. Holy shit this is a new level for “The Kid.” Outrageous nose of late season red and black cherry fruit but what really stands out here is the absolute clarity. Wow it smells like God’s jelly donut. Unreal 9.8 almost a 9.9 nose. I am not joking. The depth and purity of the aromas is off the charts. Under all that fruit is stones. Those Pommars stones. Like a Pommard rolling stone. Wow. Just sick. There’s spice and herbals. My goodness this is elite. This is just incredible work. The palate is just a knockout. The ultimate power without weight but also with the ultra concentrated tiny berry intensity that comes from the best grapes on the best bunches on the best vines. Just incredible. Elegance and just incredible power and never never heavy. The tannins are ripe and fierce. Chewy and dense. It’s early but this is ridiculous. 9.7 for now. But it will go up. Oh wow the fruit is so sweet. Extraordinary length and freshness. — 3 days ago

Killer nose of sweet meyer lemon flesh, some lemon zest, gorgeous minerals and white flowers. Very pretty. Wonderful palate with exquisite freshness, purity and flavors of green apple and juuuust ripe pear. Really nice texture like icing on a cake. So clean and juicy. Wonderful chewiness and an almost tannic finish. So well made and just delicious. Delightful and deceptively long. There is wonderful, dash of “salt-like” sweet oak on the nose that is just brilliant. This smells like a scene in nature. Just stunning. This does what it set out to do perfectly. What balance and poise and just unreal deliciousness. — 4 days ago

Always sultry, always glorious. Stanky late season cherry fruit, hint of barnyard funk that only adds allure. Palate is so full of fruit it’s ridiculous. Juicy and sleek, with unreal purity and freshness. 22 nails that freshness with decadence so well. Very pure and mineral. Wonderful tannins that suggest this is built for the long haul. Long finish. — 6 days ago

This is such a special Savigny. Stunning nose of dark flowers, dark cherry fruit, gorgeous clear earth and loads of violets. I love the darker fruit profile of this wine. The nose is so fragrant. Just layered and complex but so floral. 9.6 nose. I said what I said. Palate is gorgeous but needs to catch up to the nose which it will and always does. Tannic but sweet, long and lingering and great freshness and the classic darker fruit profile that Buffet always gets from this site. Really fresh and full of energy but man oh man does this need air. Most backwards so far of all the 23 Buffets. I’ll be back. This needed 36 hours or so to come around. It’s elegant, serious and stunning but needs 20 years. 9.3 to 9.4. — 3 days ago

Very red fruited nose. Early season cherry, loads of limestone, some smashed violets and really high toned. Palate is juicy with high acid and nice red fruits. A bit terse now but let’s see what air does. Juicy and early season and sour cherries and very very fresh. I like it but it’s not a “crowd pleaser.” I take my words back. Air has done its work. The nose is gorgeous. Big cherries, sour, early season and some mid season with a huge helping of wet earth and rocky limestone. High toned and bright. Palate is gorgeous with sweet/sour early to mid season cherry and some gorgeous texture. Very high acid and real texture. This is everything one wants out of an everyday burgundy. It does need air but it’s worth the wait. Really elegant and terrific linearity and precision. Very fresh and energetic. — 4 days ago

Just crazy. So aromatic, so complex and so fine. Stemmy but unreal fruit and freshness. After 11 hours this is so fine, so elegant and so refined. Nose smells like Xmas with cinnamon, clove, spice, cardamon, and elegant sour cherry. Palate is so deep, so juicy and has this wonderful stemmy sweetness. Great tannins, that are silky and sauve. Velvety texture and the finish has amazing length. Brilliant. — 6 days ago

Stunning. What an insane nose. Candied mid to late season cherries, insane spice and that classic stoney Pommard minerality. Unreal concentration but never heavy and so much depth. Waves of fruit crashing on limestone rocks. This is very very exciting wine. Only 595 bottles. Welp! Nose also has some super detailed sweet cocoa and just top top clarity. Wow that palate, those late breaking Pommard tannins and exquisitely formed fruit. This is something else. Let’s see how it performs with air. 9.6 now. Now the next day after 14+ hours open this is singing. Nose has a deep cherry perfume and wonderful spice and brooding Pommard minerals. Terrific aromatic complexity. Palate is just lights out with freshness, deep mid to late season cherry and also some early season as well. Brooding but suave stony Pommard minerality and gorgeous complexity and depth. Exquisite juiciness and balance. Long finish and so well made. Lingers forever. — 4 days ago

Love me a good St-Romain. Nose is sweet lime and lime zest. Very high toned. Some nice ripeness as well with peach and tangerine. Also some sweet red grapefruit. Outrageous nose. 9.5? What a palate. Bright! Great acidity and citric depth. Grapefruit, sweet meyer lemon, so sappy and the purity on these Rebourgeon whites is remarkable. Round as well with a lovely hit of mid-palate opulence. White flowers as well appear on the nose. Terrific focus and wow the citrus, lean citrus to be clear is just a showstopper. Brilliant stuff. — 4 days ago

Holy crikey. Nose is ultra mineral. Superb purity, confectionary and wonderful smarties flavor. Juicy, lean, precise. Long. Insane complexity. After almost 20 hours open this is just mind blowing. Just a rock quarry on the nose. Palate is superb. Concentrated and architectural. So pure and elegant. — 6 days ago
