Château de Pibarnon (Comte de Saint Victor)
Bandol Mourvedre Blend 2012
Delicious. Loads of dark fruit, black plum, black cherry, cassis, etc. plus some spice plus some earthy olive notes. And great structure with a long finish. — 2 months ago
Domaine Armand Rousseau
Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2001
With a four hour decant this 2001 Rousseau Chambertin was ethereally light with a good finish but not as complex or the signature sappy fruit associated with Rousseau. A good wine not great. Next time will use a two hour decant — 11 days ago
Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair
Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir 2009
My first time tasting this producer, I would be lying if I said I did not have very high expectations. Scents of earth , flowers, spice and oak. As one would expect from this vintage fruit but it is not overdone that is joined at the hip with some serious mineral overtones. I have no clue what this sells for at the cellar door but secondary prices have to be based on one thing, scarcity. — 2 months ago
Conrad Green
Intense and pretty with a bit of VA on the nose at first that blows off. Very pure fruit but still young and quite gnarly. Serious stuff, dark and intense. Will this ever dance lightly? I don’t know… impressive but less drinkable now that the 2000 alongside. — 5 days ago
