Grandes Bodegas

Domaine Paul Pillot

Les Grandes Ruchottes Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2014

Not much nose, quite closed. And it was even decanted. Must be going through a phase. But the taste is still elegant with stone, citrus, salt, just enough roundedness. Quite restrained. — 9 years ago

Domaine Daniel Rion et Fils

Les Grandes Vignes Nuits-St.-Georges Pinot Noir 2007

From split opened half hour before consumption. Earth, red fruit, and a hint of funk. Smooth tannins; searing acidity. Probably could use another five years to achieve better balance. — 9 years ago

Grandes Vinos y Viñedos

Beso de Vino Old Vine Garnacha 2014

There is a very pronounced earthy streak running through this one. The cherry aromas and flavors are there, for sure, but they are struggling to burst through a heavy layer of earthy sediment. I think of it as “dirty cherry.” The rustic nature actually makes me think of rusty, as in a piece of metal covered in iron oxide.The structure is a little weak, but that makes it very sippable. The minerals will go nicely with a piece of lean beef or pork. — 10 years ago

Grandes Vinos y Viñedos

Monasterio de las Vinas Garnacha & Tempranillo 2013

Un "crianza" 2013 che combina un mix ideale di vitigni a bacca rossa: Garnacha, Tempranillo, Cariñena e Cabernet Sauvignon e ben 89 punti Robert Parker!
Colore rosso granata limpido, fluido e consistente, dagli aromi di frutta nera matura, di confettura e sottospirito, in bocca giustamente equilibrato e aromatico, tannini puliti ed eleganti.

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey

Les Grandes Ruchottes Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2011

Being a huge PYCM fan that I am, this was the first "meh" bottle I've had. It was still Pierre-Yves with mouth-watering acidity, summer fruit aromas and all that — just a bit too toasty to my taste, a bit too much of pronounced oak. It lacked that masculine elegance that I'm after in PYCM wine, but still was delicious and lovely. — 10 years ago

Domaine Léon Boesch

Les Grandes Lignes Alsace Riesling

I actually really enjoy the ones that have a couple grams of sugar. They're all over the place in Europe because we have all the ones that are too sweet in the states. — 13 years ago
