Château Les Grands Chênes

Domaine Jean-Michel Gaunoux

Clos des Chênes Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2017

2017 vintage. Last tasted 7.6.25 (9.2) and 1.4.25 (9.3). Opened and decanted. Starting to show that gorgeous, silvery sheen when pouring. Tasted after 30 mins and 1 hour. Flitting about and nor super this or big that. More hint or bit of currently. Reallocating its' portfolio for the long-term vs the short term. Fewer explosive growth stocks tasted and more steady-eddie, blue-chips mixed with bonds in the mix now. Could swear I tasted a REIT in there somewhere. 01.23.26. — 12 days ago

Grands Vins de Bourgogne Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay 2024

This Puligny-Montrachet stayed true to its heritage. Mineral and chalk my on the nose. Well rounded on the palate with a crisp start and light acidic follow through that pairs perfectly with Thanksgiving appetizers. Vive la France — 2 months ago

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

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

Comtes de Champagne Grands Crus Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay 2012

2012 vintage. Tasted courtesy of @romo. Nice tension remaining and not totally committed to the overt golden qualities of the involved fruits this effort generally exhibits just yet. Maybe in another 7-8 years but this still had freshness in spades. Impressed enough to put it on the shopping list. Delicious and still fairly focused. Thank you @romo! 01.16.26. — 19 days ago

Consistency is their middle name.

This has just started to shift from fresh to aging.

Bruised red apple/pear, lemon, lime zest, tropical melons, drier stone fruits, whipped cream, ginger, brioche, graham cracker, very light caramel/butterscotch notes, grey volcanics, limestone marl, sea fossils, gritty chalk, white & yellow flowers with greens, excellent lively acidity and a well balanced-knitted, elegant & smartly polished finish that lasts near two-minutes.
