This is a real find… Lovers of focussed, mineral, fruity, oxidative, broad and baroque Champagne will find something that they’ll love in this wine.
To me, this is the perfect house-bubble.

Benjamin Leroux

Clos de la Cave des Ducs Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2017

A pale tawny cherry red in colour. A monopole (lots of Monopoles in Volnay) This from only 1.5 acres. Sappy, but overall aromas are subdued. The palate is subtle, restrained and overall delicate but has wonderful balance and the ideal accompaniment to Roast Duck Legs. Makes the most of its terroir in Volnay aided by the winemaking of Benjamin Leroux. After a few hours in decanter that light to medium bodied sappy palate remains. Certainly right to drink this now I believe. — 9 months ago

Les Grands Champs Cuvée Unique Bourgogne Pinot Noir

From a lieu dit surrounded by Gevrey. Definitely young but with a couple hour decant quite enjoyable and accessible. Tons of sweet cherry on the nose; aromatically really quite intense. Full on the palate, get more tannin than I was expecting, but very nicely balanced by a lot of acid. Enjoyed it with a roast chicken provencal but could have stood up to red meat too. Nice qpr at ~$30. Note this is not the “cuvee unique”, which apparently a 100% new oak bottling - this is the regular which is 85% old. — 5 years ago

Grands Cras Morgon Gamay 2018

Very nice with cherries and a bunch of funky barnyard, but not distracting. Good fruit with blackberries and a bit of cranberry and herbs. Needs food imo. — 3 years ago

Domaine Paul Pernot et Ses Fils

Grands Vins de Bourgogne Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay 2014

Lemon, oak, wet stone. Love the mouthfeel--velvety chocolate milk texture. Paired with lobster in tarragon sauce, which were great together. White Burgundy always reminds me of melting snow in the spring. — 7 years ago

Les Grands Chaillots Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2021

2021 vintage. Last tasted 07.23.24 (9.2). This bottle (like that one, tasted at a fave resto) chilled down a bit and traced over 1.25 hours. That bottle $120 then...now...same bottle $140 off the list. This visit a tad tighter and closer to the vest. Still very nice. 01.21.25. — 9 months ago

@Pinotman /// Andreas Yeah, a bit pricey but was in the mood for red Burg vs red Rhône, BDX or elsewhere. Rarely buy 750ml bottles when dining out (usually do btg) so a small splurge.

Delas Frères

Domaine des Grands Chemins Crozes-Hermitage Syrah 2019

Note, in 2019 hail cut yields by 40%, Deep Ruby with concentrated aromas of ripe dark fruits and spices. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with leather, licorice and smoky herb notes. Fine tannins, hints of oak on medium+ finish ending with fruit, herb and earthy mineral tones. Nice! — 3 years ago
