Beautiful cuvée with age. Bottle bought 10 years ago and likely disgorged around 2010 or so.
Black cherries, liqueur tangerines, dried stone fruits, blackberries, mix of black raspberries/raspberries, rainier cherries, delicate but razor sharp chalkiness, limestone, sea spray, sea fossils, bread dough, baguette crust, soft wine spice, rainbow, floral bouquet, shape acidity, good tension, excellent structure & balance. The finish is elegant with power that lasts minutes. Excellent with Duck Confit, goat cheese with herbs.

Definitely an interesting wine, showing a bit of age, touch cloudy, a dollop of bret, the texture was great, silky and supple, the wine was pretty compelling but not quite my style. — 2 years ago

27.10.2023 Sancerre Les Baronnes, the second wine tasted with my colleagues and the director (who is drinking). Emphasized by Sauvignon Blanc's history and the description of Sancerre as a place, it was surprisingly appreciated. The 2022 vintage is quite light in terms of texture, but perfectly represents the variety. — 7 months ago
An earthy nose with violet, dark plum, blackberry, hints of sage, Iodene, leather. Hot at first but with air has softened and integrated. Good stuff — 8 months ago
From Magnum. Delicious — 5 years ago
This burgundy started off tart and transformed with air. It was darker and fuller bodied than I expected. It almost had some syrah notes — furry purple flavors. $99, 93 pts RP. — 7 months ago
Overly cold unfortunately which mutes much of the flavour you would expect from this 1er Cru from the excellent 2014 vintage for white burgundy made by the baby faced assassin Henri Boillot. I might add to this note once it has warmed up. Very lemony. — 9 months ago
Enjoyed it for Christmas 2022 for the aperitif with blinis caviar and scallops bacon — a year ago
