Les Goulots Vieille Vigne Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015

Wow, what a beauty. Decanted for 2 hours, intensely aromatic, precise and energetic showing black raspberries, candied red cherries, flowers, hints of orange peel and packed with minerals. Finishes with exceptional length. The tannins are present and firm but the wine’s superb balance along with the combination of Fourrier’s style and the ripe vintage make it in a wonderful place now and with a certainty to improve with age. — 6 years ago

A little reductive at first opened up with time to reveal incredible purity and elegance . Red and blue fruits , earth , bakers spice , Violets , herbs. In the mouth there is plenty of vibrancy , with some dusty tannins and buffering acidity . If Jean Maire Fourrier was making California Pinot Noir it would taste like this: — 11 years ago

Rosé Champagne Blend

Alizarin in color with many bubbles--both fine and large ones. Intensely yeasty and toasty on the nose. The effervescence is intense, almost piquant. Bright acidity steals the show and sets up the palate for notes of blueberry, cranberry and a touch of cocoa that quickly transitions, whiskey-like, to a caramel and vanilla dotted finish. The 100% P noir makes this a really unique and bold bubbly rose. Stellar! — 12 years ago

Aux Etelois Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2013

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.

@Ceccherini Cristiano Got that write up from Winehog - just for my reference. Aux Etelois, I've only had a couple of times. All Duroche. I reckon it's got the concentration and length to be a lesser 1er each time, but I believe this has much to do with producer. Same as Griotte I guess. It does have the reputation of being a lesser GC, but I reckon in the right hands... It's quite consistent. Same as Latricierws. Producer producer producer! Hahaha.

@Aaron Tan
I 100% agree
I just wanted to mentioned too how important is the terroir
No producer can make an excellent wine out of a bad parcel in any vineyard
I recall Hubert De Montille saying in Mondovino how the terroir is 10 times more important than the vigneron/winemaker
And as an example you think of Rousseau Clos de la Roche where he doesn't really have a top parcel when Dujac or Ponsot do and make a better wine (IMO) than what I consider to be one of the best red wine producer of the Cote de Nuits(I know, the other two are not bad either). Anyway I just follow those lines too, producer, vineyard, parcel, vintage, but it is never easy.
I guess that's what makes it interesting. 👌🙏

@Ceccherini Cristiano Agreed! Man can indeed overcome the factors of earth and nature, but their wisdom and effort can only go so far.

#5 of my tasting pack is from one of my favorite producers in entire Burgundy-Sylvain Cathiard. Light ruby in color, delightful abundance of red fruit on the nose with licorice, milk chocolate and after some aeration earthy note-very typical of SC. However palate is not quite consistent with nose on this one. On the palate it is lighter body than the Echezeaux from Fourrier, so is its depth. Fruits are fading suggests it's already at peak. Further aging will not benefit this wine much. Though it's probably the most affordable from SC, I'm still hoping for something better than this. — 9 years ago

Terrific soaring aromas of vivid red fruits. This nose is what you want. Spice, wet earth, so perfectly framed by fruit. Really lovely and expansive. Reminds me of Fourrier on the palate. Very pure, voluminous sweet fruit, nice structure and wonderful top notch finesse. Typical nice acid of 13 with uncommon depth of fruit for a village wine. Terrific complexity and nice perky acids. Great now better in 5 years. — 11 years ago
