Had a bottle 66 weeks ago - this is my last bottle. White florals. The palate is delicate, restrained and polished. After a while sweet fruit but undeniably more citrus than stone fruit. The finish shows cleansing citric acid with a touch of salinity. The same notes the following night. 2017 - a good year for white burgundy. — 2 years ago

#Remembrance #Love 6/25.

Sofia loved Penguins. We played w/ them in Dubai and she also skied indoor while I had a spot of Champagne and watched from a very big window. Only in Dubai. They have to build things of that nature…cus w/o them…just a bunch of sand. — 2 years ago

My COVID19 f.... the virus 🦠 mid week treat. Textbook. Anise first - tannins mostly resolved. A great wine no rusticity. Dried Raspberry mushrooms chanterelles - actually. A beautiful wine. After this drama is over I will have to stock up. It’s nice to drink alone but I am also sad I can not share some of these beauties. — 6 years ago

80% Chardonnay with a splash of Pinot Noir, zero added sulphur. Ripe yellow fruit over toast. Perfect — 9 years ago

Fully mature, perhaps even fading a little. Warm cherries, baking spices, a little smoke, and rust on the nose. More of the same on the palate, plus some pleasant tertiary florals and forest notes. Tannins fully resolved, good balance, and reasonable length. A little grippy on the finish - might be residual wood influence, but no obvious oakiness. Nice wine, but I wonder if it might have been in better shape a few years ago. Note that the cork showed evidence of a little leakage, so fully intact bottles might drink younger. — 10 years ago

Inaugural vintage and showing better than it did in August. Mostly old-vine Grenache from the era before the domaine began entirely destemming. This is big, burly, epic, and velvety CDP. Like hugging a fuzzy bear. — 11 years ago

Consistency is their middle name.

This has just started to shift from fresh to aging.

Bruised red apple/pear, lemon, lime zest, tropical melons, drier stone fruits, whipped cream, ginger, brioche, graham cracker, very light caramel/butterscotch notes, grey volcanics, limestone marl, sea fossils, gritty chalk, white & yellow flowers with greens, excellent lively acidity and a well balanced-knitted, elegant & smartly polished finish that lasts near two-minutes. — 10 months ago

38 years and the nose is still intact. A wonderful, crisp, citrus lingers from the glass. A fantastic finish. — 4 years ago

Love the nose on this: ripe apple, pear, spice and butter cream. A bit unbalanced on the palate with plenty of mineral and richness and likely some years to go to settle. Throw a meal at this one! — 6 years ago

Vines planted in !901, 1902. Mainly Grenache 90-95%. 15% ABV but nit noticeably hot. Black cherry, black plum, spicy but not peppery, forest floor, little chocolate covered cherry, Med+ acid, well integrated tannins. Alcohol showing up a little on finish. Smooth and complex. — 4 years ago

Mario Vaillancourt

9.1

Nice acidity with some width to it and a little bit of richness, a delicious finish on pears mostly. Good bottle but lacks the zip of the best Perrières.

Beau vin sans être dans la même classe que les meilleurs Perrières, belle acidité et une bouche assez ample avec un peu de richesse, belle finale sur les poires. 90-91 — 6 years ago

2006. Tastes golden. It's a deeper, older wine. You can taste the pinot noir, but it also has the smooth freshness of a blanc de blancs. — 11 years ago
