Mourvèdre where have you been all my life? Tasted this with Andrew on a recent visit and my first bottle did not disappoint. Nice black fruits and smooth tannins--delicious. Only issue is the burgundy bottle which is a tight fit in my fridge. — 8 years ago

Cinnamon is making lamb shanks and I just started reading Mr. Curtis' new book, so it had to be Burgundy tonight. The quote from Claude Arnoux, from 1728, "all the lords who prefer healthful drinks to dainty ones order wines from the Cote de Nuits for their table" made me reach for this Gouges. Report to follow. — 10 years ago

Blueberry, raspberry, tar, oak, brick. Smooth finish with oily, smoky notes like olives, sea salt, Gruyere. Have another bottle of this vintage we will open in 3-4 years to see differences. Sarah had a more fruit forward, tart experience with black cherry coming forward. — 8 years ago

A wine that always reminds me of suckling pig with @Amanda Crawford and @Charles Curtis many years ago. — 8 years ago

Balanced if I can say that for a late harvest dessert wine... (It was). The acid supported it's dance between alcohol and sugar. Beautiful nose. Sweet citrus and floral. What I call a 'honeymoon' wine. Perfect, goes quick. — 9 years ago

Thanks for the great dinner dad! This Burgundy had the catnip blend of sweet Pinot fruit, expensive cooperage and deep, cool earthiness that you can't get from anything else. Thanks @Charles Curtis for inspiring me to drink more of the "Original Grand Cru's of Burgundy" and thanks Silicon Babylon for letting me see both Tignanello and Insignia being drunk through straws at two different tables! — 9 years ago

Beautiful salmon color, light and delicate strawberry nose, very nice acidity and cherry-strawberry fruit flavors. It's a great dry rosé. — 9 years ago

Sneaking a peek at the Montre-Cul with the some Dijon chicken. Charles Curtis has really got me fired up on these historic sites of Burgundy... This wine comes from north of Marsannay and the tight, dark, reticent character of the wine matches it's borderline location. For a wine this tight and brooding, it sure did go down fast with the chicken. The mystery of Burgundy! — 9 years ago
