Wow! What a nose that kept building in the glass showing red cherry, strawberry, forest floor, sweet & savory spices, earth, leather & floral notes. Very impressive showing for this 37yr old Roumier. — 5 years ago

Always loved Ponnelles wines from the 40's- 60's These older btls were thought to be made by Georges Roumier. Drank a lot of great ones at Berns until they ran out and have found a few btls at auction. This btl had dried cherry, strawberry, blood orange, rose petal, earth, iron and Vosne Romanee spice. — 8 years ago

1978 Domaine Bouchard Volnay-Champans. This was an escape maneuver — wasn't planning on opening this, but we ran out of food way too fast to stop tasting wine, plus me and my girlfriend are marathon drinkers. At first it smelled bloody awesome, but showed signs of exhaustion and graveyard motives. Gave up on it and left the bottle to slow-ox for 3 hours and by the time we were fed up with Roumier and Dujac, Bouchard delivered a classic aged Burgundy story — dried plum, ripe cherry, red flowers, bits of mushrooms and just a touch of those tired (and surprisingly green-ish) aromas that made me upset at the start of the dinner. To great surprise, textbook iron Volnay notes were very much present and held everything together. I didn't have much hopes for this bottle, but the wine was singing, although quite obviously on its decline. Also, fantastic value, since I got it for about $120, which was very suspicious, given the great vintage (although lesser producer).
Paired with foie gras pate toast with yuzu jam (holy shit, that jam is insanely good, get it and love it). — 9 years ago

Publication:
The 2013 Régnié from Julien Sunier is a lovely example of the vintage and a very strong indication that, though this domaine has only been around since 2008, Monsieur Sunier is now one of the top estates in the region. As readers may recall, Julien Sunier worked with Christophe Roumier at the start of his career, prior to setting out for several different regions and wearingvarious winemaking hats, prior to settling in Beaujolais and opening his own domaine in ’08. His Beaujolais bottlings are not classics, but rather more of a hybrid of Beaujolais and Côte d’Or styles, as he ferments his whole clusters in cement vats with indigenous yeasts, prior to aging them for nine or ten months in old Burgundy barrels (that he still gets from Domaine Roumier). His 2013 Régnié offers up a bright, red fruity and complex nose of cherries, baked red berries, cardamom, lovely soil tones, turmeric and just a bit of oak spice in the upper register. On the palate the wine is medium-full, wide open and drinking beautifully, with a good core of fruit, solid acidity and grip and a long, complex and succulent finish. Lovely juice in a quite unique and compelling style. 2014-2020+. - John Gilman — 11 years ago

This started off as unassuming and maybe slightly reticent. After 1-2 hours, the nose gave away incense, which is an aromatic quality I adore from Bizot. Dare say the nose beat out the Roumier, Rousseau, and Leroy that night. Not saying this producer is clearly better, just this instance. — 7 years ago

Dark ruby with tawny rims. Old style funky burg nose with black cherry, clove, and dirt. Rich ripe fruit in the mouth. Feminine when compared to a more masculine Roumier Bonnes Mares next to it. Awesome wine that can improve with more age. — 9 years ago

Absolutely stunning. Idk about paying $250 for a village wine, but if I were to, this would be the btl. Meaty and full, yet still distinctly vosne, with elegance and spice. At this point in its life, this is way better than the 2010 roumier buss that we had with it. Curious what ten years would do though? — 9 years ago

So young but for my money it's hard to find a better St. Joseph. Yes this is easily on Gonon level, but different like Rousseau and Roumier are. It's a dark color. Almost black. Stunning nose of crushed granite, fresh underbrush, black fruits, minerals galore, leather and so much more. Nuanced and complex as great St. Joseph can be. The palate is deep with big black fruits, significant ripe and sweet tannin and a long juicy finish. This is obviously young but has all the parts to be one of the best wines of the vintage as the finish lingers for a long time which hints at a very long future. Will update as it aerates. Sick for now.

AFTER 5 HOURS -The nose is like a big drop of blackberry juice combined with super granite tones some herbs. Really complex. The palate is epic. Huge fruit, great freshness, firm tannins. Gets very nook and cranny. Needs 5 years. — 9 years ago

What a treat. A lot of power there. Lifted, pretty red fruit. A brooding depth but excellent clarity. A touch less expansive than the Leroy but very good. This is a delicious vintage and an exceptional wine — 9 years ago
