This wine was closed when we opened it but the next day it turned out to be a gem. Keep for another 3 years. Great balance between acid and fruit. Tannins resolved over night and now the wine has dark berry notes and a hint of bitterness and dirt! The ripeness of the 2009 vintage shines through but is well managed. Beats any California Pinot at the price level ca. 50$ when I bought it. This is how Burgundy should taste! Low 13.3%. For a Gevrey at the village level stellar! — 11 years ago

Lean and rustic; lovely. Haven't had a village Gevrey quite like it. — 11 years ago

Lemon, lime, crushed stone, bracing acidity another great example of a Roulot Village level wine. No one does it better. — 12 years ago

1999 Barolo Brunate/Le Coste—Medium red. As is usually the case, the Brunate/Le Coste takes things up a notch. It presents a deeply mentholated, balsamic nose along with layers of dark fruit, licorice and tar flavors that develop in the glass in a potent style that captures the essence of the vintage. Rinaldi’s Brunate/Le Coste remains the best traditional Barolo most people have never tasted. — 13 years ago

Right out of the gate the nose on this is classic Red Burgundy. It takes me back to the first time I had a real Red Burgundy myself as this had the elegance and perfume aromatics and flavors of earth, mushroom, red berries, a touch of floral and plenty of forest floor. Hard to stop smelling this it is so food! — 11 years ago

Rich deep red colour. Fantastic earthy aromas, I get plum, leather, wood smoke, smoked meat, dry fruit, red cherry. Very tender and almost silky, although showed a bit of young age with green bitter tannins on first pour. Let it sit in glass or decant it — gets so much better. Amazing young Burgundy even at village level. — 11 years ago

A lovely biodynamic wine, a blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre from the Languedoc.
This village style wild wine has a deep black purple color, with a complex nose of barn yard, black fruits, cherries, plums, sweet spices, roasted coffee and earthiness, all coming together nicely in a wild rustic full body, with a lovely acidity and fierce tannins. It is defently a village style wine that you can't stop enjoying, until the long finish expires and the bottle is gone, my score 90, drink 2015-2024 — 11 years ago

A lovely wine (but not a surprise). The fruit was trending toward darker fruit but the wet rock notes balanced it out. Slightly more extracted and less chambolle like than I expected but nonetheless a solid performance. I'd let this "humble" village effort rest a few more years. — 12 years ago

Lots of butterscotch but a little lemony freshness and a refreshing hit of acidity on the finish, it isn't a paragon of complexity, but a very satisfying 19 year old village wine. — 12 years ago
