Niiiccce. Huge limestone and contrasting canned pineapple and pear. Monster wine, lots of material here but still waiting to integrate. — 9 years ago

Butter popcorn heaven. Although late in the evening, was described as ‘eye opening’. — 5 years ago
Perfect with duck but still needs some cellar time...perhaps 3 more years. — 7 years ago
Truly stunning- a complete wine with power and finesse. Bursting with sweet red fruit. Intense minerality. Ample weight without feeling heavy, and a finish that seems to last all day. The delicacy and sweetness of Volnay with the power and structure of Gevrey. Leather, licorice, tobacco, smoke. In a blind tasting this would be hard for me to differentiate from a 1er cru Burgundy. Easily the best Sancerre rouge I’ve had the opportunity to taste. Will age for 15 years or more. Gorgeous wine. — 8 years ago

Nicely mellowed 2011 and still a good amount of the familiar Haisma spice. — 9 years ago
Awesome biodynamic from Slope Cellars. Had at Diwali/Samhain. Minerals and complexity. — 9 years ago
On the nose it was bright and citrusy, on the pallet, some citrus, strawberry, watermelon, apple and vanilla. It left my mouth watering for more! — 10 years ago

Been a little bit since I checked in on this. Baby Clos des Chenes. Nose is all stones, minerals, light cherry and seems closed aromatically. Palate is lush and rich with lovely balance, purity and freshness but seems closed. Lovely finesse. Serious dense fruit and structure. Black and red cherries. Great length but I'll check back in 2 hours if I'm up. If not tomorrow. — 8 years ago
2nd time having this. Showing much more expansive on the palate than 6 months ago. Pure fruit. Long finish. — 9 years ago

A little coiled, probably should have decanted. Still a lot of tension even in a 21 year old wine... — 11 years ago

From a lieu dit surrounded by Gevrey. Definitely young but with a couple hour decant quite enjoyable and accessible. Tons of sweet cherry on the nose; aromatically really quite intense. Full on the palate, get more tannin than I was expecting, but very nicely balanced by a lot of acid. Enjoyed it with a roast chicken provencal but could have stood up to red meat too. Nice qpr at ~$30. Note this is not the “cuvee unique”, which apparently a 100% new oak bottling - this is the regular which is 85% old. — 5 years ago
