Very interesting south Rhone, very dense but quiet flavorful. — 4 years ago

Pretty quiet nose. Some toasty notes on pallet, not high acid, hint of residual sugar — 5 years ago

Classic Gamay. Eating a bowl of dried plots whilst sitting on a moss-laden log in a quiet forrest. — 6 years ago

Long Island Teroldego, en magnum. I wish I had 100 more bottles of this wine. — 6 years ago

Gooseberry, bramble, violets, hint of sage. This is a full-bodied Merlot. However, the middle picks up a cola note but doesn't really go to a chocolate like the 2010 and 2012 had more of a tendency to do. This one really did not have a ton of acidity nor did it really have a ton of tannin to resolve. There was definitely enough tartrate in the bottle though! I really look for this one to continue aging quite nicely for another 10 to 15 years. But oh man, this one is drinking pretty darn nice right now. — 7 years ago

Dark ruby purple. Quiet nose even with a few hours of air. Still primary. Tannin not fully resolved. Needs time. — 8 years ago

Oak Barriques in evidence with vanillin notes also showing plums and tobacco with a dark chocolate note. Quiet dense on the palate with dried cherry, red licorice, and an overall sweetness. A little different to my note of September 2018 where I talk about sweet and sour although that is still there to a degree. A bit weird this one - too famous for what it delivers. In the 2013 Wine Spectator Top 100 this was Wine #1 I will leave last bottle to at least 2024 on its 20th Birthday. — 4 years ago

Subtle and quiet nose with almost no fruit, savory and spiced notes, cigar wrapper. Palate reveals luscious notes of dried figs and toasted hazelnuts. Touch short on the finish, but a delicious drop of wine regardless — 5 years ago

High fill. Straw gold, noticeably lighter than the 90 Dauvissat Clos. Notes of pit fruit, white soil, white stones, some spice - and with several all hours of air, the honey notes appeared. Started out strong, then went into a funk and was quiet. But returned late in the evening for a solid finish with nice old Chablis fruit and memorable acidity. (Bday dinner 3/13) — 6 years ago

Beautiful expression of Sauvignon Blanc in a grapefruit flavored style. Good fruit, lovely tropical nose. A top-quality wine. — 8 years ago

I dunno. Pretty quiet overall and specifically flat in the mid palate. Root day? Odd spot? I mean, the tart red fruit I expect is there, there's just no dynamic range. — 8 years ago

Tannins still a bit harsh, but already very good drinkability. Cherries and rasberries, some green notes giving freshness. It's quiet elegant and despite 15% alcohol no heavyweight. Looking forward to drink it in 2025. — 4 years ago

9.6

Dark crimson tawny. Regal looking. Exotic nose. Notes of bing cherry, raspberries, iron, menthol, roses and a little camphor. Quiet in the mouth at open, gave it 4 hours in the decanter and the structure powered up. Silky wine with amazing perfume. My first taste of the 93 and it’s perhaps the best Vogue Musigny I’ve ever had. Still young in its journey Give it a lot of air if opening now, but it’s easily got a few decades in front of it yet. This is the real deal! — 5 years ago

Absolutely gorgeous. Showing really well with purity and precision. This has amazing length from the start. A treat to enjoy some Raveneau on a quiet Saturday night — 6 years ago

If there is such a thing as wines that can conjure a personal connection irrespective of “greatness,” but a connection of language and dialect, this is one of those wines for me. The same is true of all Ovum wines I’ve tried - quiet wines of place. Voluptuous but not clamorous.

Green herbs and aloe. Ice box spiced lemon meringue pie. Fat and creamy. Minty lemony creme brûlée. — 6 years ago

Summertime with girl with a paper fan, slow and relaxing, a young woman without too much complexity, simpler, not straightforward but like light breeze in summer afternoon. Kinda quiet. — 7 years ago

9.2

Big bold blackberry off the bat. Turns to spice and almost a swirling flavor that you can quite pin down. Honestly for this price it's a deal. Has the nature of a 45+ bottle but not quiet the depth. Regardless, grab one. — 8 years ago
