Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Pale and lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with yeasty and toasty oak aromas, sat on lees for 6 months. On the palate flavors of crisp apple and peach with citrus zest and nutty oak notes, well balanced with acidity. Medium+ finish ending with fruit, toasty oak and mineral character. Pair with a lane or red snapper with a tomato garlic compote topping. — a month ago

100% Savagnin made in ouillé style (topped up, non oxidized). In fact, this is Tissot’s only Savagnin ouillé, as most of their Savagnin grapes go towards the production of Vin Jaune (aged under flor, without topping-up). Complex, mineral, very tasty. Long, saline finish — 3 years ago

Cloudy urine colour. With marshmallow creme enamel topping. Alpine sunrise lacing. Yeasty nose shows chive and beet greens. Grapefruit and black lime. Full palate creaminess turns sharp with lemon pith and oil surfacing. Microgreens and dried apricot form the parameters while yeasty pomelo notes bolster the core. Very zingy finish that refreshes the palate and adds substance.

My continuing quest to taste as many 22 Burgundies as possible…

Rounding up to 94 here.

The nose is warm & inviting. It leads you slowly through & down its path. Warm compote made with; blackberries, dark cherries, plums, dark cherries, cherries, strawberries & some blueberries & raspberries. The core is dark & a touch brooding. Anise to black licorice, baking soda, beautifully, layered baking spices, moist/dry herbs, caramel, chocolate baking bar, notes of fallen tree bark, sun tea with fruit dropped in with amazing fresh & withering red, dark, blue florals framed in slightly candied & liquid violets.

The palate is beautiful and strangely wrapped in a waxy coating. The fruits have a slightly baked to stewed and yet candied topping. blackberries, dark cherries, plums, dark cherries, cherries, strawberries & some blueberries & raspberries. The core is again dark & a touch brooding. Anise to black licorice, mid berry cola, baking soda, beautifully, layered baking spices-cinnamon stick, nutmeg, clove & vanillin, moist/dry herbs-sage, bay leaf, caramel, chocolate baking bar, some butterscotch notes, fallen, dry tree bark, dark spices, sun tea with fruits dropped in, dry oak barrel shavings, amazing fresh & withering red, dark, blue florals framed in slightly candied & liquid violets, excellent acidity with a very well balanced, well structured-toned, elegant & polished finish that last minutes falling on dark spice and beautiful earth tones.

This is easy to drink now, but better things lie ahead with another 10 plus years of integration and evolution.

Beautiful 22. — 6 months ago

2018 vintage. More accessible than expected, given past, sporadic vintages tasted. Should prob give it a 9.7 just for that damnable wax topping finally saying bye-bye. — 3 years ago
