Light and fruity. Surprisingly good with chilly food. — 8 years ago

Noisy neighbors party didn't get us down- we bounced to the Sofitel for a suite party of our own. This biodynamic blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay & Pinot Blanc was perfect with room service... Lots of morel savor & classic 2004 acid and mineral drive! — 9 years ago
90% PN 10% C NV from Cotes des Bars - brioche & peach on the nose, very fresh & full palate with citrus & mineral - good length — 10 years ago
2002 vintage. Clos de la Roche. Wow. What a developed nose. Spearmint and sous-bois. Savoury and intense. Earth, morel and red fruit - good acidity and weight. Some aniseed on the palate. Very interesting. I love this wine. Great length. — 10 years ago
Perfectly paired evening. Brooding music, brooding and thought-provoking cuisine, and an identical turnout in this wine. I have tasted this bottling three or four separate times. Evolving interestingly, consistently delicious, and rich & savory. Wet forest floor, morel mushroom, candied cherries, rich Indian spices, savory finish. My over-again favorite red Burg from 2009 during the last year. Damnnnnnnn. Drink this whilst listening to Dead Can Dance's latest album. You'll die. 😜👊🍷 — 11 years ago
Last bottle ever. Nutty, grassy, huge acid and wonderful purity. I love these wines. — 11 years ago
Great with food, a bit tart in the way that I like. Not sweet. — 7 years ago

Vibrant red cherries from first whiff. Fruit is very much alive while there is a cool earthiness and perhaps even iron. On the palate, dark cherries. Light medium body with some fleshiness. Medium acidity and finish. — 8 years ago
excellent 2004 likely as gd as first wine with morel mushroom soup and then steak — 9 years ago
Fantastic Rhone Valley wine. Notes of dark jammy plum, cedar and clove spice on the nose, with strawberry-rubarb, raspberry sorbet, pomegranate, and light minerally feel, medium plus body, high acidity, and a nice and smooth finish. Great with food, and with an hour decant, by itself. — 9 years ago
Strong upfront flavor for a rose, but not overwhelming. More mineral than fruit? — 9 years ago
In its window. Super aromatic. Terrific and pure. — 10 years ago
Rye toast, cranberry laden gravy, and morel nose with cinnamon and peppercorns in prune smoke. There is dark chocolate in this miasma, too. Blood-thick, with enough residual oak to build your own "Cruz" ship. A virtual reliquary, this dark chunky beast swings like a bat across your front teeth, and doesn't forget the back! Big Spanish monster with hard clay, bonfire, plum reduction, and a brassy finish that hovers around in the shadows for a minute finishing with cassis and a little bakers chocolate for good measure. A steal at 13$! — 10 years ago

Pretty funky upon opening. Horsey like a Raffault. But there is a sense of big cherry fruit lurking. Very floral as well. Some combo there of fresh flowers and horseshit. After 30-45 minutes the shit is gone and it’s all violets, earth and cherries. Awesome. Morel is magic. Palate is deep, raw like only Morel can be, with terrific freshness and acidity and a lovely rusticity. St Aubin Rouge are not the most elegant Burgundies but they have so much more than elegance. This wine is long. Really long. It’s a crazy wine that I think with 3-4 more years will really show well. This is like a young version of the 08. — 8 years ago

Phenominal value. Vanilla, spice, slight bit of tangerine and menthol. — 9 years ago
Excellent Cote du Rhone with our Thanksgiving meal. — 9 years ago
Carob, toffee, mineral mid-pallet, red fruits, old world funk, and almost cabernet franc character. Served with roasted Cornish hen, morel mushrooms in cream, and grilled green garlic hearts. #americanclassic — 10 years ago
Grower champagne from Verzenay; also the chair of the Cave Co-op in Verzenay for some years, and JP's father before him (who has disgorged me wines still on lees back to 1928); is Verzenay Grand Cru though not stated; JP is a specialist pinot noir grower, with a slice of chardonnay; wine is boldly pinot power, nice tang on finish, fresh and delicious; taut, full, tons of yeast; great Christmas breakfast Champagne + fruit. — 10 years ago
Dark chocolate and cherries up front with a tingly blueberry finish, and the tingly medium-bodied morel mushroom tones one expects from Walla Walla Syrah. — 11 years ago
