Mahogany and pecan on the nose. Nutty flavor with hints of vanilla. Very complex finish. — 7 years ago
Lively dark fruit, spices, touch of green but well integrated. Perfect Christmas wine. — 8 years ago

The oak is a bit heavy at this juncture, but the lime and papaya tinged fruit shines through. Classy. — 9 years ago
Cheesey nose, perfect body, smooth finish. — 10 years ago
So wonderful. Earth, smoke, wheat, sun. Fantastic and is opening up wonderfully. — 11 years ago
I love a strong white. Very deep straw color, light nutty cheese notes, helped cut through and temper the sweetbreads it was paired with. — 7 years ago
Beautiful nose- lovely apple hit with mild cognac. Not my bag, but appreciate the craftsmanship — 7 years ago
Fifth day open: roasted plums, cherries, jasmine, black tea, saddle leather. Nebbiolo-like and balsamic, yet it's immediately recognizable as Pinot. Another example of how '15 offers Cote-de-Beaune reds that are as good as they can possibly be. #chassagnemontrachet #pinotnoir — 8 years ago

tasty light crisp bubbly delicious — 6 years ago
Ананас, яблоки, лимон, аккуратный нефтяной тон, сухой мед, битый камень. Средне-полное тело с фруктово-тропическим акцентом, хорошей кислотностью и уверенной, но не слишком напряженной структурой. Ещё молодо. Шлейфовая ароматика, увесистый объём, первичные акценты во вкусе. Глубоко, органично и выразительно. Чуть не хватает микродетализации и комплексности фактуры. — 6 years ago
One of the better burgs I have had recently. Hands down pure expression of Pinot for the fraction of the price. I can’t find a lot of info online what happened to Benoit Germain but according to Howard, who knew him well, Benoit took his own life in 2010 (???). Tragic story and an example of that not everything is Or in Cote d’Or even if your wines shine so beautifully. — 7 years ago

Baking spices and bruised apple. Popcorn, notes of slight oxidation. Chenin Blanc, not Cab Franc — 10 years ago
Beaune 1er Cru Les Cras 1990 - Domaine Germain - Chateau de Chorey lès Beaune
Dopo la tragica morte di Benoit Germain, del Domaine in questione restano solo bottiglie: alcune di rara bellezza e tutte di inestimabile valore emozionale.
Naso pazzesco capace di combinare in equilibrio - senza note di cedimento - sentori terziari a percezioni di freschezza; agrume, sciroppo alla fragola, tabacco, terra smossa e una pungente cannella che si traducono in un sorso di magnifica eleganza. La leggerezza del corpo si distende in micro impulsi acido/sapidi. Da assaporare ad occhi chiusi. — 10 years ago
