Burgundy Pinot Noir

Domaine Ponsot

Cuvée Vieilles Vignes Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Pinot Noir 1996

Absolutely lovely. Opened 90 mins before and didn’t decant, don’t think it needed it. Finish really may be 1min+. This is drinking meaningfully more advanced than the 1999 that we had a number of months ago - so, drink up, but enjoy. Incredible precision of fruit and earth and excellent acid. Paired with simple chicken thighs crisped and the fat rendered down in a pan and then a pan sauce with shallot, garlic, thyme, and lemon. Delicious. — 2 days ago

Échézeaux Pinot Noir 2005

gorgeously transparent. Some stems and floral notes, gnarly but super pure fruit. Still contained but very lifted and pretty and effortless. — a month ago

Vigne de l'Enfant Jésus Grèves Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015

My last bottle of the 2015 Enfant Jesus. Showing better than our last tasting which was unimpressive to be honest. Still tasting somewhat new World in this warm 2015 vintage. A bracken like brambley note coming through together with violet/rose florals. Enjoyable but not worth the money. Cannot see this improving with further cellaring. — 9 days ago

Côte du Py Morgon Gamay 2014

Wine of the night and more. An incredible example of how good Morgon can be. Complexity, length, structure, and the rest. — 10 days ago

Domaine Armand Rousseau

Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2003

2003 vintage. Opened (not decanted) and tasted after 1 hour and 3 hours. Perfect cork and fill. Immediate, perfumed nose upon the open as it couldn't wait to escape. Light-medium/medium body. A quiet, simmering intensity throughout. First tastes invited the pretty, berry flavors. Last tastes emphasized delicate tea and earth influences. Feel like another 5-spot might just find it tickling the top of the bell curve. Still climbing currently. 1.23.26. — 11 days ago

Grands Échézeaux Pinot Noir 2019

It’s not about QPR when you have a chance to drink history. I had other plans for this bottle but I thought about the bottles I’ve sold over the years and never tasted which now I regret.
You can’t take them with you so you might as well enjoy while you can. Very good, bigger than I expected from a Burgundy but its another bucket list bottle
