Michel Bonnefond (Domaine Georges Roumier)

Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2000

Stellar. Tasted a bit over the hill at first (just a touch of raisination) but the color and tannin are from a 2015 or thereabouts. It’s continually developing. Black tea, xmas spice, black cherry, cacao nib but really dark, idk if descriptors do it justice honestly. Was worried cause of vintage/storage/reviews but this is hitting. Btw idk if delectable has it right but it’s the Michel Bonnefond bottling made by Roumier. Texture is honestly seductive — 5 years ago

Domaine du Clos des Fées (Hervé Bizeul)

Le Clos des Fées Grenache Blend 2013

Not seeing RP’s 95, but it’s good. Great spiced fruit nose. Ripe with a tart finish. Just a whiff of stinky. — 5 years ago

Thanks for the comment! I intend on opening the exact same one in the same vintage in a week time. Hervé Bizeul is very active on a wine forum in France called "la passion du vin" and argues that le Clos des fées should be put in a decanter for up to 24 hours before being tasted to make sure to experience it in the best possible conditions. It certainly sounds a bit exaggerated and I only meant to share his views on the topic.

I could certainly see that. This definitely gained weight the longer it was opened. The last glass was the best with 3 hrs in the bottle.

Saint Joseph Syrah 2015

Always a joy to check in with Souhaut. This Syrah is in a better early drinking place, oddly enough, than the Gamay. Very pleasurable with nice tannic presence. — 9 years ago

Musigny Grand Cru Pinot Noir 1990

Rather masculine with herbal quality that reminded me of old chartreuse, while being perfectly balanced and very long. Amazing wine. Layers of complexity. Tasted next to 1990 La Tache which was the feminine counterpart - and better QPR, which is a silly concept at this level.... — 10 years ago

Chambolle-Musigny Pinot Noir 2022

Medium dark rubi robe, nose of dark cherries, spices and a hit of cloves and flowers. Oh so good in the mouth, medium bodied, complex, flowery and with some vanilla from the barriques. Fantastic. Roumier has gotten better over the years. — 8 months ago

Les Combottes Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2013

Deep, compact and quite masculine. It is still tight but offers up more after a sufficient decant, but it does still need more time. The nose is intoxicating as dark fruit and florals waft from the glass with minimal reduction. Structured palate with a weightless density and intensity and focused acidity. Both black and red fruit, red flowers and Chambolle minerals. Finishes with very good length and assertive tension. — 5 years ago
