Nice color and enticing nose of autumnal forest and notes of overripe red fruits. A bit acidic on palate and medium finish. May have waited too long but still a nice wine for the very large Turkey wings! — 3 years ago
By far my favorite of all the burgundies tasted yesterday. Very approachable, structured, fruit forward, medium bodied, with elegance and a smooth finish. Barnyard funk/ earth on the nose with red and dark cherries, rose petals, pomegranate, spices, oak, and vanilla. — 5 years ago
Jeunes vignes de Ruchottes Chambertin. Tout en fruit, eclatant et soyeux. Suave et gourmand . N'a pas la meme profondeur que le grand vin par contre. — 7 years ago

Hoped this would be more balanced and giving, but the rustic NSG nature sneaks through. — 3 years ago
I hope this is what Pinot noir is like in heaven. The vintage, the smell, the taste... Mongeard-Mugneret is absolutely my favorite domaine — 4 years ago

It grew on me steadily. Light-bodied, bright, fruity, clean. — 6 years ago
Color is a bit pale, almost looks like aging wine, but the taste proves the opposite—extremely light, open, drinkable bottle. Lots of oak, cherry and tobacco. Tannic, but in a pleasant way. I wouldn't like this wine on any other day, but tonight it turned out to be the perfect choice for lighter Burgundy. — 9 years ago

Another Wine Club meeting come and gone. This time we had some exceptional selections that were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Speaking of enjoyment, there are few things more enjoyable than sharing good wine with good friends. This is one reason why Wine Club is a tradition that we will strive to preserve for many years to come. — 7 years ago
