Chapelle Saint Jean

Domaine Michel Niellon

Clos Saint-Jean Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Pinot Noir

Avreally punchy nose packed with life. Quite reduced with marzipan/almonds and citrus. On the palate similarly charged- full throttle citrus with minerals. Really intense and showy — 9 years ago

Domaine de la Colline Saint-Jean

Vacqueyras Red Rhone Blend 2012

Big mineral at first... I know it's weird, but I taste iron... had to check if I bit my lip or something. The finish has numerous complexities, with lots of earthy undertones to a bold wine. — 10 years ago

l'Empreinte du Terroir Corps de Garde Saint-Bris Sauvignon

Yes, Sauvignon Blanc in Burgundy! In fact, the St Bris appellation was previously called 'Sauvignon de Saint-Bris' (before 2003). And you can ONLY use SB or Sauv Gris fruit, + max 12.8% ABV. Love the terroir and plan to show it blind just to mess with my Sancerre obsessed friends. — 11 years ago

Moury Saint-Bris Sauvignon Blanc

Awesome sauv blanc from a producer in Burgundy close to the Chablis border. This vineyard site has limestone soils that you can taste in this dry mineral driven wine. Bright acidity and lean body make it a great food wine and something that will be easy to enjoy all summer long. — 10 years ago

Le Ban Saint-Aubin Pinot Noir 2017

Slight horse on the nose to begin with, with a shift towards bright fruit, and anise. Great length with well integrated tanins, low acidity and very mellow finish. Good stuff. — 9 years ago

Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

Céleste J.L. Chave Sélection Saint-Joseph White Blend 2011

Oily and beautiful. Not brimming with acidity that will shoot to the stars, but it's softer palate feel is welcomed and very pleasant to sip on. — 9 years ago

Domaine Lafouge (Jean et Gilles Lafouge)

La Chapelle Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2012

This is a silkier, more elegant vintage of the Chapelle, at least relative to the 2010, which was really in my zone, as well as the 2009, which I found over-the-top, but in both cases I think there was more stuffing there than here. This would've shown better if I'd opened it with white meat or even fish or something else where a lightweight presence and loose-knit structure is called for. It's an excellent wine in that idiom but lacks some of the solidity and grip it has offered in other years. It's not imbalanced at all, and the trademark stony mineral flavors are still here, it's just a slimmer version of its usual self. — 11 years ago
