A #Malbec from #SouthAustralia by Duane Coates, owner & #winemaker of #coateswines. Twisted the #screwcap on this 2012 #RobeVineyard #malbec for dins. Cheers Duane & thanks for the very good #booze! It has a generous nose, with dark red & black #cherry notes tethered to a #palate that is sumptuous & savoury, the latter something found in every #wine he makes. Love the #savouriness, #acidity & gripping #tannin structure of his #redwine offerings. — 10 years ago

If you are rating this any lower than 9.0 you are an unsophiscated feable-minded moron still wondering why you spent over $50 on something labeled just Bourgogne. Clive Coates' acclaimed 3 star producer doesn't even care what you have to say about this. 3 star producer, that's what you have to say about it. Yep, Bachelet's trash is still worth more than 96% of any bottle with the label Bourgogne. That's what the hell is up. You want 3 star? All the way to the trash, orchestras of Soul music. Merely practice lines of a genius' composition as he gets ready to consider his single holding on grand Cru land. Don't even bother letting us know what you have to say if it's not 9.2 or higher. — 8 years ago

Pretty impressed...light and fruity and yet smoky. Not overwhelming yet complex. I would totally recommend this, and will buy this again. Organic and no sulfites detected is of course awesome! — 10 years ago

Pretty great. The one that turned me on to navy strength gins. Good in martins or with soda. Great with a splash of water, but really shows it’s colors straight out of the (cold) bottle. Juniper, orange, thyme, a little sweetness. — 7 years ago

Drinking beautifully. Still has time. Dark fruits, dried/ meat leather. Med length. Shows organic wines are serious wines — 8 years ago

First taste of Vosne and a great producer. Red fruit but a bit more austere than Chambolle, though I can see the aristocratic and masculine description from Coates. Still tannic and plenty of fresh acidity for 17 year old village wine so there's real pedigree here. Not complex nor is it overly elegant after few hours of air but still very nice. — 9 years ago

Vintage 1949 in Burgundy according to Broadbent: “..most perfect end of a decade - elegant, well-balanced wines”; Clive Coates in his book Cote D'Or: "best vintage of 40's all-perfect beauty and purity”; Robert M. Parker Jr.: “it was the best of post world war II vintages before 1959”
Henri Leroy at that time was négociant based in Auxey-Duresses, his mythical daughter Lalou Bize-Leroy in 1949 was only seventeen.
Les Cazetiers is amongst the most elevated of Premier Cru site in Gevrey-Chambertin - and indeed the whole of Burgundy.
I drank this precious bottle on Mount Etna with #FrankCornelissen and other dear friends. Uncork this bottle lead to a surgical operation. Just begun to pull it out, a light breath of wine molecule with air bubbles magically have emerged on the surface of the cork. It's been like witness the passing away of a dying old man (or Pinot Noir must be a woman?) That humanized wine had held "élan vital", hope and breath inside him for the last 66 years! A miracle of a wine still so tasty, robust, citrusy, vibrant, earthy, incredibly alive and well-preserved despite color and neck level did not bode so well.. that's what I thought and I'll remember until I die: "the wine was waiting for us to drink it up, he gave off his mortal blow to offer us life, joy and smile!" — 9 years ago

What a wacky and amazing blend. Presenting amazingly for a 2012 and provided useful for a side by side Riedel glass tasting. A really fantastic blend of Touriga Nacional, Tempranillo, Monastrell, Syrah, Malbec, Cinsaut and Garnacha. — 10 years ago

A fantastic value at $46.50 a bottle. Opened at 3:00 and by 5:30 was presenting beautifully. Coates gives the producer two stars (only 29 two-stars in all of the Côte d'Or — only 17 three-star). Grand Cru level 1er Cru. 2007 was not a great year — this wine is an exception. — 10 years ago
