Very good Bordeaux, but the notes by Moore Bros were the most accurate I've ever come across. "...complex, exotic aromas that open with griotte cherries, ripe cassis, fresh fennel, crushed violets, and sweet herbs; adding dried figs, dark cocoa, and flecks of pencil shavings as the nose evolves...". Well, I missed the figs but otherwise, yes! And in that order. Remarkable. — 8 years ago
Griotte, black plum, glazed donut (sweet yeast dough), dried leaves, spearmint/mentuccia, nail polish remover (eth. ac.) Great value! — 9 years ago

1985 Domaine Ponsot Griotte-Chambertin w K and McC at Toscana. Wet cork and smelled dodgy at first. Two hours later, completely changed and opened up and became awesome. Super interesting to see how it changed. — 11 years ago
From magnum. Had it next to the stylistically similar Fourrier Gevrey VV, but this was the better wine for me - it had a little more depth and texture. Started of similarly reductive, but quickly opened up to scents of roses, intense red cherry, and smoky insence. The palate's velvety, mix of red and dark fruits, rich but offers lots of freshness with its crisp acidity. Minerality plays second fiddle at the moment, but is evident in the long spicy finish. I bet this was how it looked like when it was first bottled, so time can only make it better. 1er level for sure!
NB: From WH - This plot is located on the southern side of Griotte-Chambertin alongside the Claude Dugat plot and below the Duroché plot of Griottes-Chambertin. It is quite strange that this vineyard has been classified as village as it’s located so close to the Grand Crus. — 6 years ago
Flintig mineral, frisk syra. Lite griotte-oxidering i bakkant. — 9 years ago

Grandissime ! Cerise noire, griotte et réglisse , grande puissance, encore très jeune... — 10 years ago
Very generous wine, charred oak came through quite pronounced however. a beautiful and rich wine with a very 1990 feel. I am fond of the 93 over the 90. The Griotte is totally killer — 10 years ago

Chez yes. In one hour that might be an open mouth, but right now it will have to settle for a lip to lip tag. — 11 years ago
1990 DRC Richebourg. Lunch at Tap while DS was visiting. Drank this side by side to the 1985 Griotte-Chambertin. Hard to pick a fave- they were very different. This one had much more fruit and texture to it and I might have favored it slightly. — 7 years ago
Savoureux des l attaque
En bouche du fruit rouge mur de la griotte ...
Un final persistant très parfumé
Mériterait à mon avis 1 ou 2 ans de garde supplémentaire — 7 years ago

Les minéraux sont présents, la cerise "griotte" et un goût d'encre... Bref un tempranillo avec du caractère et une belle complexité. Gagnera beaucoup avec les années!

2013 - Très agréable . Nez cidré, goût griotte légèrement fumé, soyeux et perlé . Ca goûte drôlement bon. — 10 years ago
Showing excellently, enjoyed over a couple of hours after opening for about half an hour. Sharp, perfumed mineral notes give way to violet, blackberry, cassis, and baking spices and a bit of vanilla. Telltale earthiness and a bit of rusticity at the bottom, but exceptionally smooth with great structure. This went wonderfully with everything from beef tenderloin to grilled scallops and vegetables. The mandarin chutney in the scallop dish brought out plums and griotte cherry in the wine. — 10 years ago
