Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2023

2023 vintage. Staff Burgundy tasting. Medium body. Slightly dirty and feral right off the bat. That quickly mellows out a bit, unfortunately, and smooths out. Lengthy finish. 2.17.26 — 3 months ago

Chenin du Puy Saumur Chenin Blanc 2015

Vintage 2015 / Imagine you find a vineyard with almost 50 years old Chenin Blanc and you are able to make wine from it. Frederic Mabileau must have been thrilled. This vineyard in Saumur is 1 hectare. Minerals in smell, a lot of minerals. Also vanilla (16 months en foudre). Hints of tropical fruit, hay, enormous powerful in taste with good acidity. What a joy to taste this! — 6 years ago

Bourgogne Pinot Noir Rosé 2017

Chalk and lemon dust over iris petals with lipstick and active-art eraser; a reflection of tangerine, with a glint of dried apricot a tantalizing afterthought in this pink bouquet. Round mouthfeel with prickles of lemon citrus and quince extruded past clementine braiding through its pith-webbing in a flat, ruby red grapefruit and lemon orchestration. #guegen #rosé #bourgogne #pinkstuff #pinkwine #roseallday #pinotnoir #pinotrosé — 8 years ago

Brouilly Beaujolais 2006

These old Brouilly are really incredible! Intense notes of peppery wild strawberries, truffle evolution, undergrowth, dried flowers, blood orange.. the finish is persistent, like the fragrances of a perfume, intertwining fine tannins and endless acidity veins, with light bitters welcome.

Ces vieux Brouilly sont vraiment incroyables! Notes intenses de fraises de bois poivrées, évolution truffe, sous-bois, fleurs séchées, orange sanguine.. la finale est rémanente, tel les fragrances d’un parfum, entrelaçants tanins fins et nervures d’acidité sans fin, avec de légers amers bienvenus.
