2008 vintage. Very rich and vinous. Lots of red fruit with tart cherry, golden raspberry, baked apple, red and pink flowers. Very textbook for Meunier. Killer value! — 6 years ago

Incredible for the $$. Black earth, tar, cassis, mild tannin. Still surprisingly light on its feet for the style. Delicious. — 7 years ago
Côte-Rôtie Deep ruby with purple highlights. Clean, medium-plus nose with a riot of aromas including medicinal overtones of iodine and tar, black olive licorice, black pepper and exotic spices. Medium plus acidity, medium plus ripe tannins with all the aromas mirrored on the palate. Excellent multi-layered wine with a long finish. — 8 years ago

The 1990 Lynch-Bages remains the towering Pauillac it has always been, even if Jean-Michel Cazes personally prefers the 1989. It has a riveting, graphite-infused bouquet that is brilliantly defined, very focused and sharp as a razor-blade. Poured directly against the 1990 Lafite-Rothschild, this Fifth Growth beats it hands down. The palate is very well structured; this is an aristocratic Lynch-Bages with impressive grip after 28 years. There is a symmetry underpinning this wine, a sense of energy undiminished by the passing years, that makes this 1990 Lynch-Bages so compelling. Just awesome. Tasted during the Christmas Dinner at Noble Rot restaurant. (Neal Martin, Vinous, December 2019)

A testament to a visionary winemaker surrounded by people who want to join him in living the dream. Leather and liquorice on the nose, blackberries in the mouth and a long, velvety vanilla finish. Merci, Jean-Michel Comme. — 10 years ago
Still quite young tasting especially relative to the 96 corton renardes from gaunoux. Would love to revisit in 5-10 years and see what this grows into. — 5 years ago

This is the 'Cuvée du Roi' 2012 and is clearly a Bourgogne from the Cotes-du-Nuits. This is rich and silky with great depth and structure that has some lovely acidity and fine tannins that drinks well above its level. Could easily be a good C-D-N villages. — 9 years ago
Absolutely a dream. Totally out of my price range but worth a splurge when I see it. One of the best I've tasted! — 10 years ago

Les Chantreries - Chateau de Pommard -2001 : magnum . Liquoreux , charpenté, gros caractère, un peu moins gouleyant, touche d’acidité légère. Un bonheur. Joyeux noel. — 3 years ago
