Joseph Drouhin

Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru Pinot Noir 1999

1999 vintage comparison of two producers. All had the complexity of the year and region. One corked Drouhin (CdV) and one corked Taupenot-Merme (MSD). But back-ups were available.

Stars included the T-M Chambolle Musigny and Charmes Chambertin with great balance and wonderful forest aromas, and the Drouhin Clos de Vougeot and Charmes Chambertin with growing richness and a touch of saline.

Some had only a brief arc of balance, but the GC's were pleasing throughout the evening.

Romain Taupenot

Hospices de Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2012

Silky palate with cherry, mushroom, and forest floor up front and floral, tobacco, and cooling menthe notes behind. Brooding in youth, this is one for the cellar. Check back in 5-10 years — 9 years ago
